Kukla, kao prekaljena rediteljka muzičkih spotova, u filmu donosi estetiku upravo iz prostora u kojem je i kalila svoj zanat. Iako film nosi naziv po jednoj od junakinja, zapravo pratimo fantazije i maštanja sve četiri protagonistkinje, s fokusom na fantaziju Mihrije.

Najslabija tačka filma upravo je lik Mihrije, koji je prilično linearan i za koji smatram da je zahtevao više emocije i dinamike. Ipak, taj nedostatak nadoknađuje lik Fantasy, koji tumači Alina Juhart.

Zanimljivo je i to što se radnja filma odvija u Sloveniji, ali likovi nisu poreklom iz Slovenije, već dolaze sa prostora bivše Jugoslavije, što predstavlja jedan od ironičnih pečata koje Kukla ostavlja u ovom filmu.

Naravno, soundtrack je dinamičan i u skladu s Kuklinom filmskom estetikom, ali smatram da je pesma „Muškarčina“ Sare Jo mogla da se uklopi kao dodatni ironični akcent koji bi zaokružio celinu priče.

Kukla, a seasoned director of music videos, brings to the film an aesthetic shaped in the very environment where she honed her craft. Although the film is named after one of the heroines, we actually follow the fantasies and imaginations of all four protagonists, with a particular focus on Mihrija’s fantasy.

The weakest point of the film is precisely the character of Mihrija, who is quite linear and, in my opinion, needed more emotion and dynamism. Still, this shortcoming is compensated by the character Fantasy, portrayed by Alina Juhart.

What is also interesting is that the film is set in Slovenia, yet the characters are not originally from Slovenia but from the former Yugoslavia—one of the ironic signatures that Kukla leaves on this film.

Of course, the soundtrack is dynamic and in line with Kukla’s cinematic aesthetic, but I believe that Sara Jo’s song “Muškarčina” could have been included as an additional ironic accent that would round out the story.
