   Danis Tanovic returns to his roots in ‘Cirkus Columbia’   
   08 January 2011, Saturday / EMİNE YILDIRIM , İSTANBUL   
   Who can forget the magnificent film “No Man’s Land”? Bosnian filmmaker   
   Danis Tanovic’s feature debut was one of the best films to illustrate   
   the devastation of the former Yugoslavia.   
   Now Tanovic returns with a film that aims for a similar   
   verisimilitude. With the kind of absurdist yet humane humor specific   
   to the region, “Cirkus Columbia” follows a personal story in an   
   idyllic Herzegovinian town with the looming Yugoslav wars of the early   
   ’90s in the background.   
   Veteran actor and comedian Miki Manojlovic stars as the idiosyncratic   
   macho Divko. He left his hometown -- a place unspecified in   
   Herzegovina -- 20 years ago to make his fortune in Germany and escape   
   the communist regime. Now that the Eastern Bloc has broken down, he   
   comes back to town armed with a brand new red Mercedes, a black cat   
   called Bonny, which he walks on a leash, and a bombshell younger   
   girlfriend Azra (Jelena Stupljanin). The problem is that Divko has   
   some evil thoughts on his mind, fuelled by a desire for revenge. His   
   wife, Lucija (the wonderful Mira Furlan from “Lost”), refused to come   
   with him 20 years ago and decided to raise their only son Martin   
   (Boris Ler) on her own, with the help of her friend, the army officer.   
   Divko has no compassion for his wife and estranged son and evicts them   
   from their house immediately to claim it as his own. ...
