About The Beheading of St. John the Baptist
A portrait of a family and of Jovan (John), its youngest member and black sheep. The entire story takes place in just one day, in one apartment, during the celebration of the beheading of St. John the Baptist. Jovan’s parents are hiding the fact that they are getting divorced from their son and their guests, and Jovan is hiding from them that he is using drugs while hoping that aliens will save him from the hopeless and meaningless existence on Earth.
Directed by Siniša Cvetić, The Beheading of St. John the Baptist leans on a strong ensemble — Pavle Mensur, Bojan Žirović, Marko Grabež — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2023.
