Storyline

Four "enterprising" young men borrow a larger sum of money from the local mob with the intention of embarking on a modern-day entrepreneurship. Utterly incompetent, they lose the money like a shot, and are thus immediately thrust into the rough, provincial underground of the so-called "Kransterdam". By dealing, gambling, blackmailing and implementing other more or less ingenious ideas, they endeavour to regain the money. But if they do not return their debt with interest within seven days, the future will be all but bright for them... "After many long years of boredom at watching Slovenian films, we decided to write and make a film that would have the audiences laughing and relaxed. That would, for a change, have them entertained by a Slovenian film. We decided to make a film on urban youth in an interesting, genre-employing and most entertaining way. I believe that after "Kekec (old slovenian film)", to exaggerate somewhat, there has not been a true Slovenian youth film for years, ...

Just pure fun!

I am a few years older to be defined as a target audience (16 - 24 years old) but I enjoyed watching this movie also. In my opinion "Tu pa tam" movie is a giant step for Slovene low-budged production, amateur authors (players, screenwriters and directors), young enthusiasts. A story is simple but well thought. Dialogues are funny and authentic. Some scenes and jokes are put in local environment. I do not know if they will work outside Slovenia. Yes, it is seen that movie makers as Quentin Tarantino and Guy Ritchie had a great impact on director of this movie. The fact that "Tu pa tam" (made by young 24 years old director) reminds us of Ritchie's movies is not a bad thing but obvious showing of respect to this famous director.
