will not stop there

„ Will Not stop There “ is a love story with elements of black humour told by Đuro (Predrag Vusovic- Pređo) – an actor in obscure Serbian porn films. Martin (Ivan Herceg) is a Croatian war veteran whose life changes when by a bizzare twist of fate, he recognizes Desa – the leading actress in a porn version of Little Red Riding Hood. Martin tries to find Desa and his search leads him to Đuro, who then takes him to Belgrade to meet Cane, the producer of these films. Martin finds out that a pimp called Stevan (Voja Brajovic) owns Desa. Noticing his affection for Desa, Stevan offers Martin the possibility to buy her off. Martin gets the money and brings Desa to Zagreb. Desa is convinced that Martin is also a pimp who brought her to Croatia to work, and doesn’t understand why he treats her so politely. Martin dares not to tell her that he knows her from before. A peculiar love story full of misunderstandings develops between them.
