About SPARE PARTS:
Embittered widower, Ludvik, spends his nights transporting illegal refugees in his van from Croatia, across Slovenia, and into Italy. The young and inexperienced Rudi acts as his helpmate. Together they become a well-trained duo who almost every night convey spare parts to Italy. Of course the story of their illegitimate exports into Europe ends tragically, for everyone. The whole idea of this account is that everyone -- including ourselves -- is looking for happiness: the spare parts because of the misery they are plunged into without, and our characters because they can'st find it inside.
