    • Synopsis
    • Practical Guide to Belgrade with Singing and Crying is a contemporary romantic comedy about the trials of finding the right person, told through four completely different love stories.
      In the beginning, Stefan, young Belgrade driver, falls in love with Silvie the French chanson singer. As a keepsake, Silvie gives him her ring, which he loses. Ivan finds it. He is an engineering entrepreneur from Belgrade. Passion flares between him and his Slovenian ex-girlfriend Ana, an investor. However, Maja, a civil engineering senior at practice work by day, and a fetishist dominant lady by night, finds the ring at the construction yard. Her slave Brian, an American diplomat, is not actually who he tells he is. The maid Jagoda, too beautiful for somebody who drinks too much, steals the ring and decides to put the fidelity of Orhan the German biker to the test. Instead of returning to Germany, he unexpectedly discovers the roots of Turkish culture in Belgrade and falls in love with Jagoda.
      Just as the ring rolls and travels, trying to find its true owner, love remains the only way to make changes in life or to continue living it.
