The Mokra Gora railway station is part of the historical route of the Serbian railway. After the creation of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes in 1918, the construction of a section of the railway linking Belgrade with Sarajevo, and further with Dubrovnik, became a strategic goal. The construction lasted for 3 years, and the first train set off on January 25, 1925. The "Mokra Gora" stations and " Šargan Eight" were part of this route. The line was closed in 1974, and then rebuilt in 1999 - 2003 with the help of Emir Kusturica. Currently, it is a tourist attraction of Serbia, and in the station buildings there is a network of hotels and restaurants.

Drvengrad also known as Mećavnik and Küstendorf was built by Emir Kusturica for his film "Life Is a Miracle". I love this movie and this was the reason of my travel to this village...

At the yearly commemoration day of Rabbi Israel Abu-Hatsera. This lady is one of many colourful characters who visit this event. Sometimes It feels like an Emir Kusturica film location.

Just above Mokra Gora, the film director Emir Kusturica built a traditional village called the coastal village or Etno selo. It served as the backdrop for his film Life is a Miracle.
The place is also the starting point of the 13.5 kilometer long Šarganska osmica museum railway line, which has been extended further towards Višegrad since 2005.

Whenever I try to remember my dreams, I always turn 'em into stories. But dreams are like life. You can't catch it with your hands because you can't catch something you don't really see. If you believe in your dreams, you could be sure that any force, a tornado, a volcano or a typhoon, wouldn't be able to knock you out of love; because love exists on its own.
Alex Blackmar, from Emir Kusturica's Arizona Dream.
When we're hangin in Hermitage park I saw these wedding fellows giving pose to their paid-photographer. I was interested because of the couple that reminded me Kusturica movies characters. The funny thing here - instead of their offical photographer they're looking at my camera
:)))
Well, just a lil nonsense. I wanted to test some lil things in my photoshop and while building the decor, I suddendly remembered the movie "Arizona Dream" from Emir Kusturica. So well, here my lil nonsense of the day. Nevermind... *winks

Light slipped gently over the deserted beach. Alone, a little girl walked along the shoreline, as if waiting for something or someone, draped in the soft glow of twilight. The air was fresh and salty, and the world seemed to be holding its breath.
Suddenly, something impossible appeared above the sea. A massive whale floated in the sky, its fins gliding through the air as if it were water. The whale touched neither sand nor the foam of the waves: it hovered gently, a colossal and peaceful silhouette in the gathering dusk. From its wide, half-open mouth hung a dark sphere, almost as large as the child, suspended in the void. The whale approached in silence.
The little girl’s heart beat slowly, with strength, like the waves of the sleeping sea. She wasn’t afraid, only her eyes were full of wonder and her breath caught in front of this benevolent apparition. Her hands trembled slightly as she dared to reach toward the gift the great whale seemed to offer her, an immense black pearl.
The child gently laid her palms against the surface of the black pearl. To her great surprise, the pearl felt warm and pulsed with its own life, as if a small heart were beating inside it in echo of her own. Beneath her fingers, the smooth surface reflected the night sky and the stars, and in those reflections she thought she saw images dancing. Perhaps they were memories from the ocean depths, or dreams entrusted by the whale itself. For a moment, the little girl felt transported elsewhere: she saw endless oceans, forests of kelp swaying in dark waters, and a night sky so vast it could have fit entirely within the pearl.
The floating whale observed the child in silence with its immense and gentle eye. In the calm of night, an invisible bond was being woven, made of trust, gratitude, and mystery. The little girl looked up at the whale and, with a timid smile, sent it all her gratitude. The whale, in a slow movement of its head, seemed to reply: it understood her. For a long moment, the child and the whale remained like that, both illuminated by the moonlight and the inner glow of the pearl.
Finally, the little girl took the pearl into her arms as best she could. It was heavy, but the child could carry it without effort, as if the pearl were made of dream and not nacre. The girl felt that a promise had just been sealed, or perhaps a memory shared. The whale slowly lifted its head toward the sky. Gently, it began to rise higher into the air, returning to the stars above the beach. The black pearl now rested against the child’s heart, held close. The magical creature then released a long, deep breath, not a cry, just an exhalation like a sigh of wind. And in that breath one could hear something like a farewell.
The little girl watched the flying whale disappear above the dark waves, her arms wrapped around the pearl. Had it really happened? The cool sand beneath her unseen feet and the tender weight of the pearl against her said yes. And yet, the dreamlike atmosphere still floating around her made her doubt.
Without a word, the child looked down at her black, gleaming treasure. She saw her own reflection in it: a small silhouette with eyes shining with joyful tears, and perhaps behind her the shadow of a fin vanishing into the night sky. In her heart, a new hope was beginning to rise, as if the whale had entrusted her with the key to a riddle or an adventure to come. Gently, the little girl closed her eyes, listening to the waves resume their song. When she opened them again, the night had returned to its usual stillness.
On the beach, the little girl still stood there, alone but not truly alone. In the sky, a shooting star passed, drawing a silver arc above the ocean. The girl held the pearl close as she watched the star fade. She didn’t know what the future held for her with this strange gift: perhaps an extraordinary journey, perhaps the memory of a unique night. In that moment, everything seemed possible. In the wind’s final whisper, she thought she heard a distant whale song echoing, as if from both the sky and the sea, whispering that the world of dreams was watching over her.

Story inspired by the flying fish tale in Arizona Dream (1993), by Emir Kusturica:
The flying fish is more than a visual oddity. It represents Axel’s link to the dream world, his inner wisdom, and the boundary between reality and fantasy. It frames his journey between New York, Arizona, and Alaska, reminding us that “when dreams are ready to die, they return to where they came from.”

The man stands between life and death.
The man thinks,
The horse thinks,
The sheep thinks,
The cow thinks,
The dog thinks.
The fish doesn't think.
The fish is mute.
Expressionless.
The fish doesn't think,
Because the fish knows
