Circles

Srdan Goulubovic's Circles (Serbia, 2013) - The past comes back to haunt everyone in Srdan Golubovic's "Circles," an unorthodox morality tale about Serb-on-Serb crime in which concentric narratives make for considerable resonance. The ghosts of the Bosnian War have stalked Balkan film for nearly 20 years, and Golubovic's take will leave specialty auds rattled -- and perhaps hopeful, as the screenplay by Srdan Koljevic and Melina Pota Koljevic strains to end on an upbeat. Commercial prospects are limited, but viewers will be rewarded. 2013SUN. RATING: 7
