Historia
Marilyn Jordan, an American expat living in Stockholm with her Swedish husband and family, exhibits bizarre behavior, such as poisoning the dog's milk and setting fire to the sheets while her husband sleeps. While detained at the airport for carrying pruning shears, Marilyn meets a young Yugoslav woman who takes her to Montenegro, a Gypsy enclave where she becomes involved in the local culture. She is fought over by the men there, takes a lover, assists with entertainment at a bar, and returns home more erratic than before. Parallel to this, Marilyn's daughter begins to explore her own independence.
Resumen
Montenegro (1981), directed by Dušan Makavejev, is a comedic drama that explores the eccentric life of American expat Marilyn Jordan in Stockholm. The film blends humor with surrealism and social commentary, as Marilyn's strange behavior challenges societal norms and expectations of women and expatriate life. The story also touches on the theme of cultural exchange and the clash between Western and Eastern European cultures.
