By baking his favourite dessert – coconut cubes – the siblings manage to lure their eldest brother back home. Time seems to cease to exist, and a tale of happy people unfolds. Seemingly ordinary summer days turn extraordinary. In love with life, they elevate reality above the ground, dispersing dark clouds with their joyous spirit. That’s It for Today premiered at FEST Belgrade in 2024, and was then presented at the Mostra de Valencia and Zagreb Film Festival.
“The pieces and quotes of reality blend with the rich inner world of our characters, creating the atmosphere of this film, situated somewhere between imagined and real. As the Šarenac film family is composed of nothing but enthusiasts, so is the tone, somewhat elevated from the ground and lively, always ready for a joke and a song. This doesn’t mean that there are no difficult and sad moments, but their connection with people and life’s optimism prevent them from lingering in gloom for long. It was up to us to ‘stretch and spread’ in all possible directions, and reality kept bringing us back, showing us how much we could endure. In moments when the springs of reality were breaking, and it seemed like we were as light as a feather and high among the clouds, we began to believe that it is possible to reach and grasp happiness, to seize it and imprint it in this film to stay there forever. This is a film in the name of cheerfulness. This is a film about love.” (M. Đorđević)
