The Marathon Family is a rather quirky dive into family dynamics set against the backdrop of an old burial business. Slobodan Å ijanās direction brings a dry, absurdist humor that's both relatable and absurd. The pacing feels a bit off-kilter, but in a way that captures the chaos of inheritance disputes. The performances are genuine, especially from the ensemble cast, who embody their eccentric characters well. What stands out is how it weaves together comedy and drama, creating an odd tension that keeps you engaged. Themes of legacy and familial greed are embedded with a sort of melancholic charm. Definitely a unique piece of Yugoslav cinema worth exploring for its cultural context and offbeat storytelling.
