    • Synopsis
    • Statistics show that during their professional career, all train drivers run over a number of suicidal, careless and drunken people. Ilija is a sixty-year-old train driver on the verge of retirement. He is the champion of running people over. Although he's completely innocent, Ilija regularly visits and lays flowers on the graves of all his victims. One day he finds a little boy called Sima, abandoned by his parents. He raises him better than a real father would, and they function as a happy little family because Sima is all that Ilija has. But when Sima decides to become a train driver like him, Ilija protests, knowing how hard and stressful that job is. But, just like a true father, he eventually gives in.
