" No." " Missing your Mom's cooking?" "This is why I'm here." "What?" "They sent only you?" "!" "Are you nuts?" "What did you put in that complaint?" "!" "The way the things are." "Told you it must sound serious!" " What's wrong?" " I'm the mayor;" "I can't do everything!" " Hi, Lule." " Stipe." " Lule, get the oar." " Got a smoke?" "Get the oar." "Hurry up." "Where's the oar?" "There." "We say that whenever he gets like that." "Luka, what is this?" "I had to report it to the Police." "I work my ass off building capitalism, and who's screwing me?" "Marinko, that old Commie who fucked us all for 50 years!" "You must arrest him." " Why?" " Why?" "!" "Since your cousin Milko's funeral, old commies go to his restaurant, not mine!" "Say they saw something at the funeral." "People talk." " About what?" " Don't know." "You're a cop; you find out!" "See?" "Had to hang up garlic because of Marinko!" "No garlic, no guests!" " Right, Šime?" " Right!" "See?" "Alright, Luka!" "I'll start an investigation." "What about the Museum of the Revolution?" "The county had no money." "So I had it privatized." "Who bought it?" "I did." "Wasn't expensive." "You know how it is;" "money's scarce." " The hotel is still closed?" " Sure;" "not a single tourist in 5 years!" " Good evening." " 'Evening." "Who are they then?" "A couple from Zagreb." "I gave them a house for their Painters' colony." "But no-one came." "Painters...!" " Who's running the hotel?" " I'm the director." "Who else?" "I have to do everything!" "This dump was opened because of the state of emergency." "You know Toni." "Miško is Jere's boy." "They'll be helping you." "There's no work here so I gave the youth something to do."

" I'll call the police!" " I am the police." " This is my room." " It isn't!" "I paid for a year in advance!" " Why are you shouting?" " Mom..." " Don't Mom me!" " Bursting into a girl's room like that?" "!" " Who is she?" " Slavica." "Our new teacher." " You didn't say ...you rented the room." " You didn't say you'd come." "Where will I sleep?" "In my bed with me." "Your head by my feet." "The lock's busted..." "There's nothing to steal anyway!" " I'd rather sleep in the hotel." " It's closed." "If someone rats on me that I opened it," "I'll have the tax people on my back." "You'll be fine here." "Alone." "If something bothers you, throw it into Tito's room." "Here's the tap."

"Here, everything is perfectly normal." "A glass of wine." "Marinko, is it true that you saw" "Tito's ghost at Milko's funeral?" "How can I see something that doesn't exist?" "If it were his ghost, it'd mean the other world exists;" "if so, then the Church is right." "But Tito is a Marxist, and Marx said Religion is the opium for the people." " You mean, Tito was a Marxist." " And still is." "Came to give your party speeches in my restaurant?" "!" "I'll speak where I want and what I want." "Get out!" "I don't want to see you here again!" "I'll go when I want." "Fuck you and Tito and his ghost and the whole Central Committee!" "You tortured us for 50 years!" "But no more, you red shit!" "Get lost!" "As Mao said," "A foot in the ass is a step forward!" " Right, Šime?" " Right!" " Praise the Lord, Father." " Forever more." "Could you tell me what happened at Milko's funeral?" " I can't." " It's in the interest of the investigation." " I said I can't." " Why?" "No-one wanted me before, and now I bless tractors!" "And when I had to bury Milko, that antichrist Marinko wouldn't let me!" "Let's go!" "I fell into the grave and broke my leg." "Did anything strange happen at the funeral?" " Well, yes." " What?" " Don't know." " How come?" "But you were there!" "Yeah... but when that came," "I fell in, so I didn't see anything." "What d'you mean that came?" "Don't know what." "Ask that crazy partisan Marinko and his mates." "They didn't fall into the grave." "Make them tell you." "Good afternoon." "Hi." "I see Marinko's done up his restaurant." "He has." "It's very nice." "It is." "You were at Milko's funeral?" "I was." "I hear something strange appeared there." "Is that true?" " It showed up..." " No-one alive!" "There you are..." "Mr Marinko, do you remember me?" "Sure I do." "I remember you once had a red star on your police hat." " So, no-one alive came?" " Who would come to an old partisan's funeral?" "Only his war buddies." "You didn't show up, and you're family!" " So, what happened?" " That drunken grave-digger fell into the grave." "Always a fuss over communists, huh?" " Even the dead ones." "The grave-digger said ...he'd seen something strange." " So ask him." "We didn't." " Right?" " Right!" "See?" "People talk." "Sure they do." "They say the mayor should be arrested for getting the hotel and our Museum and half the town for peanuts!" "And now the capitalist bastard lives off the working class!" "They also say you came to spy for him." "And what a relative you had!" "A good man." "A good communist." "Thanks for your help." "What do you think of Marinko?" "Crazy old partisan." "What do you think of Slavica?" "Nice, huh?" "Has Marinko... gone bananas?" "He's always been nuts." "And she's so good with children." "But she's all alone here." "He could do something stupid..." "Marinko this, Marinko that!" "Once a nut, always a nut!" "I can't see anything any more." "Just one more minute." " I'm off." " Alright." " Did you hear that?" " What?" "'Evening..." "Sorry about last night." "I really had no idea." "You're late." "School was over hours ago!" "I went for a walk." " Alone?" " Yes, alone." "Stipan could've gone with you." "Mom!" "He's still single, you know." "Mom!" "You'd have beautiful children." "If they'd take after you..." "Mom!" "Oh!" "You'd like to be alone, right?" "I'm going!" "I'm off!" "The fish stew is great." "It's better with the eel." "Grooper's the best." "Chief!" "More shit at the graveyard!" "Excuse me." "Fish stew...!" "Let's go!" " A ghost, you say?" " Yes." "And you've identified it ...as Marshal Tito's?" " Absolutely." "The ghost of Josip Broz Tito." "Near the graveyard." "First we heard the steps." "Thump-thump." "Thump-thump." "And then it stopped." "Terrible!" "And?" "He had... only one leg!" "Thump-thump, but only one leg!" "Did he have teeth?" " What do you mean...?" " Like this." "Didn't see..." "So how can you be sure it was Tito?" "It was just like this one." "The same uniform." "I have to ask you not to say anything about it to anyone." "That goes for you too." "Not a single word to anyone about Tito or the ghost!" "Good afternoon, gentlemen!" "Welcome!" "We didn't expect you, but we'll manage somehow." "You can stay in our hotel." "How long will you be staying?" "We'll see..." "That depends..." "On what?" "We heard that... in your town there's a... spirit." "What do you mean spirit?" "Well, the spirit..." "We'd hoped to see it." "But it's obviously not here." " What do you mean not here?" " Well..." "There's no red star..." "No red flags." "No hammer and sickle." " A town like any other." " Yes!" " What do you mean yes?" " Well... there's more spirit on our anniversaries." "Of what...?" "Of the forming of the 7th Brigade." "We're from the 7th Partisan Brigade." "So you think your spirit's not here?" "No need to think;" "since we arrived we haven't seen comrade Tito's spirit." "Alright..." "Alright, comrades partisans, you'll see the spirit." "Not today;" "you came a bit late." "But you'll see it for sure!" "Jere!" "Come here!" "Take the gentlemen to the hotel." "This way, please." "We'll prepare the rooms." "Everything will be alright." "Kid!" "Duje!" "Tell your Dad to come to the hotel." "You get Anka and the cook." "And tell Toni and Doc to get the band." "Slavica?" "!" " I've got her alive!" " Put me down!" "What's got into you?" "!" "She was snooping around." "She must've taken evidence." "Confess!" " I was snooping and took the evidence." " See?" "!" " Say it again!" " Put her down!" "No need to shout." "Here, take her home!" "I'm so sorry." "He..." "Forget it." "You carry on." "With a bit of luck, you'll find an old old hag at the graveyard!" " Are you nuts?" "!" " No!" "What about evidence?" "!" "Evidence my foot!" "Why would there be any..." "Solid evidence!" "I found it." "It works!" "Get in." "Shall I call for back-up?" "THREE OF TITO'S UNIFORMS" "Where's the third?" "Let's scram." "Wouldn't be smart to stay until midnight." "Slavica..." "Miško, where are you?" "Here!" "Why are you screaming?" "Calm down!" "The padlock..." "The hammer and sickle; great!" "Why d' you need them?" "To break the padlock and get out." "Don't break it." "Use that chest of drawers to climb up." "Let's push Marx over it;" "someone could fall in." "Sounds like the hotel's open." "At last some good..." " Comrade Tito..." "...News."

" Shut up and wait till we finish." "Tito's birthday is a great day for all the peoples of the Socialist Federative Republic of Yugoslavia." "Josip Broz Tito was born on 25th May in Kumrovec, a little village in the northern part of Croatia." "Sit down!" "Every year Tito's loyal youth organizes the carrying of the baton in which there are the best birthday wishes." "The birthday baton will be given to Tito on 25th May at the central ceremony in Belgrade." "Before that the birthday baton will pass through all our cities and villages, all our republics." "Together with the birthday wishes there are expressions of resoluteness to follow Tito's path of socialism, of brotherhood and unity." "The baton will be carried by our best youngsters;" "sailors will take it on the Partisan Navy's routes." "It will visit every island." "It will go under the blue Adriatic sea." "It will be carried by our athletes on lakes and rivers." "Thus we celebrated Tito's birthdays." "Here, we can carry the baton posthumously." "To his ghost." " Wait..." " Shut up!" "We'll watching the movie!" "After its long way it will be given to Comrade Tito, the greatest son of our people, whose strength leads to new victories, to the joy of workers, peasants, honest intelligentsia, our youth and all the citizens of Yugoslavia." "Turn the lights on!" "This is the birthday baton." "You'll take care of it." "Luka, have you gone nuts?" "!" "Let's move on." "The slogans fall into three groups:" "1 ) LONG LIVE - e.g., Long live socialism, or self-management, or Tito, or brotherhood and unity." "2) DOWN WITH - e.g. capitalism, or bourgeoisie or nationalism." "3) DEATH TO - e.g. fascism." "We must be careful not to mix" "DOWN-WITH-ones with UP-ones!" "We have to think of everything." "Jere, wake up!" "What does a Tito's pioneer look like?" " Has a red cap." " A red cap?" "!" "Blue shorts, a white shirt, a red neckerchief, a cap with a red star." "Those in charge of the kids must know that!" "What are you doing?" "!" "Getting prepared for the season." " What season?" "!" " Tourist season!" "Stop it!" "Right now!" "Luka!" " Here it is." " That's a good one." "And my investigation!" "?" "You do your job, we'll do ours." "Guests are the most important." "Just think, 20 groups of old commies, each group approx." "1 0000 kunas;" "their pensions are low- it means 200.000 kunas." "And that's a start." "We'll have Honnecker's ghost brought in - the German market means money!" "Then, Stalin's ghost."

"Where are we?" "In Marinko's town." "He sent us a telegram." "What telegram...?" "Comrade Tito's spirit lives in my town." "Come at once!" "Marinko, the commanding officer of the 7th Brigade." "Marinko who?" "Comrades!" "I wrote that Tito's spirit was alive because I couldn't do anything else." "I'll tell you why." "Here, at this very spot," "Comrade Tito appeared." "And it wasn't his ghost, but he himself!" "I am not crazy." "I know what I'm saying." "They lied about Tito's age;" "they said he was older in order to remove him." "They lied about his illness." "They lied that he'd died." "They buried someone else instead and hid Tito here." "But I don't know where." "That's why I called you." "To help me find and free him." "Are we Tito's partisans or not?" "Could we talk somewhere else, ...not at the graveyard?" " Yes!" " The draught's bad for my back." " And my kidneys." "My bladder's giving up on me..." "Watch her." "Memorize everything she does." "Stand here." "Miško..." "There!" "(Tito's voice) Comrades," "I must emphasize the role and the responsibility of the Communist Party in the development of the national defence system." "The strength of our defence lies in millions of citizens in their self-managing factories and firms..." "'Morning, Stipan." "...Our modern Yugoslav National Army..." "Lift it, girls." "...Our youth, their consciousness and spirit..." " Bye, Stipan." " Bye." "... The Communist Party is the greatest social power that unites all the factors of our defence." "Our Party acts in a more concrete manner..." "I told you to stop this nonsense!" "Stop yelling;" "people are working!" " What are they doing?" " Tidying up the museum." "People heard Tito's ghost is living here." "Political tourism!" "What about these uniforms?" "Put them with the rest." "And I thought I made a bad investment...!" "Stop it!" "All of you!" "Put the things back as they were!" "In the hotel too!" "I won't allow this nonsense!" "Meðugorje's booming since Our Lady appeared there!" "Our Lady, yes, not Josip Broz Tito!" "I can't decide who's to appear!" "I'd prefer St. Anthony." "But we have to use what we have." "Get back to work!" " Listen..." " Why should I?" "You do your thing, we'll do ours." "And move out of the way!" "That's no good." "Who would believe Tito slept in this?" "!" "And where will I sleep?" " In the hotel?" " It's full." "No room." "I've told you a hundred times to lock up the guns!" "Right." "Just give me five minutes." " So?" " What?" "What happened?" "She pissed 3 times, but went to shit just once." "I figured that by the time she was in there." "Suspicious was: she didn't eat, but still could shit!" "Then she washed her hair." "She walked round half-naked for two hours." "She dressed and undressed 3 times." "Put a white bra under a white blouse;" "...and then a red one..." " Alright!" "Why did you leave?" "I told you to stay there." " Why should I?" "She went out!" " Out?" "Where?" "I watched her while she was inside." "Then she went to the graveyard." "Let's go." "Let's go!" "You run, Miško!" "I need a doctor!" "Alright..." "One more time." "His name is Jakov." "He's my Dad." "He's hospitalized here." " Go on." " He wasn't always like this." "He worked in the Workers' Movement Institute in Zagreb." " It started when he got retired." " Go on." "He got kicked out of 3 mental hospitals already." "Today no-one likes this Tito thing..." "We'll work as if peace could last for a 100 years, but be prepared for a war tomorrow." "If those old folks see him, anything could happen..." "Go." "Comrade Tito, you have to rest for the assembly." "Double P in report!" "Stipan Macula?" "Yes?" "Agent Mulderic and agent Skullic from the Bureau for National Security." "There are alleged inexplicable events on your island." "Inexplicable...?" "Tito's ghost appeared on our island." "We can organize:" "visits to the places... where the ghost showed up;" "the Workers' Day parades;" "We offer socialism." "Fair prices." "Discount for groups." "Signed, the Island Tourist Bureau." "This was faxed to all the retirement homes." "There's a logical explanation." "That's what you think." "Let us do the judging." "We read your file." " Hope you know what you're doing." " Trust me, the situation is under control." "Comrades!" "Here, in our town every day is the Workers' Day!" "Now you're about to see our Workers' Day parade." "This parade celebrates workers, the young, the old - all that can be celebrated!" "But most of all it celebrates the success of our socialist work." "We know who are the ones who are building socialism:" "workers, cooks, cleaners, nurses, etc, etc." "They kill themselves working to make a better life for our children, to enable them to come to communism as soon as possible." "Socialism is also built by our peasants." "See these women who work so hard in the fields?" "They plant potatoes, gather grapes, etc, etc." "In short: they self-manage!" "Socialism is also built by our honest intelligentsia." "That's why our artists are here with us." "To us, unlike to those others," "Art and culture have been most important." "But nothing would be possible without our glorious Liberation Army" "and without you, comrades partisans!" "Here you see our comrade Rako representing a national hero." "He wants to throw a grenade, see?" "That's how our soldiers destroyed far more powerful enemies." " Right, Šime?" " Right!" "Right!" "Why do you force him to wear that uniform?" "We'll show him to the people." "It'll stop the gossip." "And the situation will again be under control." "You shouldn't do that to a sick man." "Psychotic patients speak out aloud about social madness..." "I can't know if he does it just to provoke us or not." "It'd be best to take away the uniform and leave him alone." "Stay out of this." "We'll establish your responsibility in all this." "I warn you, if he goes with you, he could get worse." "You should've taken a better care of him!" "Jakov is a good man." "He loves Croatia." "But he's obsessed with Tito." "He can't help himself..." "I'll write about him in my book." "Comrades, we're ready for new achievements!" "Freedom of the press in the Western democracies allows anyone to write lies and slander under the excuse it's moral and it means freedom." "It's immoral, and such a freedom is unwholesome!" "Cuff him." "Comrade Tito, in the name of the people, you're arrested!" "Comrades!" "Quick!" "They arrested Comrade Tito!" "We won't let the bastards take him away from us again!" "Let's go!" "Halt!" "Put the guns down or we'll shoot!" "What's got into you?" "!" "Pick them up." "Oh, fuck!" "My back's killing me!" "Sorry..." "Couldn't help it." "Defend the brotherhood like the pupil of your eye." "Have you gone mad?" "!" "Guns!" "I told you a hundred times to lock them away!" "Don't sweat it." "They'll die soon anyway." "You should've arrested Marinko when I told you!" "Now you ruined our business!" "Doesn't even look like Tito." "You fucked us up, Marinko!" "I was sure..." "But my eyes are giving up on me." "Want me to kill myself now?" "!" "D' you realize what we've done?" "And over a looney!" "?" "They'll throw us in jail!" "And take away our pensions!" "Tell everyone Tito died when he did." "And we were wrong." "Release them from prison." "And tell them it was just a joke." " Let's run home!" " Wait!" "Who knows this is not Tito?" "Those people in jail!" "Who'd believe them?" "!" " Who among us partisans knows?" " We who caught him." "And no-one else." " From the side, he looks like Tito." " So?" "There's no turning back now." "We must finish what we started." "You saw how the comrades reacted yesterday." "Their blood boiled!" "That is what they need!" "If they believe Tito's leading them, they'll stay to the end." "It's the same as if Tito were alive." "Because if he were, he'd be proud of us." "We will restore socialism." "But in these parts, if you want to achieve anything, you need a legend to lead you." "Even if it's a fake." "Death to fascism, freedom to the people!" "Everyone to the rally!" "And thus Comrade Tito came back to us." "Not as a ghost, as traitors say, but as our real Comrade Tito, prepared for new victories." "When we restore socialism on this island, when everyone sees Tito's back, our whole country will rise up with us!" "You'll be able to greet Tito in a minute..." "There he is!" "Wave it!" "He would like to say that your sacrifices over the years ...have not been useless." " He said, Wave it!" "Comrade Tito can't speak now, but wants you not to believe the enemies who say he's dead." "Turn him to the right." "Not my right; his right!" "He's alive." "Stay firm in your belief..." " Wave it!" "...in a better future!" " Wave it!" " He says, traitors are around us." " Front again." "He stepped on my fingers!" "We must be awake, because the enemy never sleeps!" "Watch over him." "No-one goes in except us who know." "No-one can enter the Marshal's residence, except us from the HQ." "We could cut one leg off;" "he'd look better..." "Yeah, the left leg..." "And what if this Tito dies or disappears?" "Nothing." "You'll go home, and we'll pretend nothing happened." "I see." "Let's go!" "Marinko, you're totally nuts!" "Telephone exchange's fucked up..." "I've a cell-phone, but there is no signal on the island." " Why are the oars and out-boards here?" " Confiscated." "To prevent the enemy from escaping and spreading lies." " How are people going to go fishing?" "!" " Fuck the fish." "They'll work in the fields." "Socialism is built by peasant and workers." "The Revolutionary Court is in session." "The judge is comrade Lokas." "This group is accused of counterrevolution and treason." "What shall we do?" "Comrades, welcome to my restaurant." "First of all, it not yours;" "it belongs to the people." "I nationalized it!" "Sit down!" "I am the prosecutor;" "I have proof of their guilt." "They'll have a court- appointed defence lawyer, although we know they're guilty!" "Defense lawyer is comrade Lule." "Great." "Now we can't lose." "Lule, don't be afraid." "Come here, sit down and be quiet." "Whatever he says, you shout Objection!" "Leading!" "Got it?" "Never mind." "Just shout Objection!" " Comrades..." " Objection!" "Lule, sit down!" " Comrades..." " Objection!" "Shut up, Lule!" "Comrades..." "There's no need to say what we've suffered lately thanks to these people and the likes of them." "Nationalism." "Corruption." "Bribery." "Social differences." "The newly-rich." "No need to go on." "Comrade Lokas..." "Lokas!" "Wake up!" "Wake up!" "Lokas!" "Lokas..." "Seems he's dead..." "I get him to be the judge, and he dies on me...!" "Comrades, a minute of silence for comrade Lokas." "Thank you for every kind word" "You used to say to us" "For every glance you cast" "Let's carry on." "Comrade Bura is now presiding." "The accused wanted to destroy the socialist..." "Silence!" "...The socialist system, and to ruin the achievements of our fight." "And the best proof for that is the fact" "I saw it with my own two eyes:" "they arrested Comrade Tito!" "Listen, people..." "That isn't Tito;" "he's a mental patient!" "Hear that, comrades?" "!" "He says Comrade Tito is a lunatic!" "This is the confession we need." "He admits his guilt!" "Therefore I demand severe punishment for them!" " What does the defense say?" " Objection!" "Would the accused stand up." "Having ascertained your undeniable guilt, in the name of the People," "I sentence you to 5 years... of hard labour!" "I blame you for this!" " We could easily disarm them." " Yeah!" "?" "And if someone gets killed?" "!" "Everyone'd know a bunch of old men disarmed us!" "They are old, but their weapons are still working..." "Tomorrow, before the ferry comes and before anyone learns what's happened, you'll get everything back to normal!" "You have 24 hours." "Comrade!" "We'd like to see comrade Marinko Cicin." "What?" "We'd Iike to talk to comrade Cicin." "We'd Iike to talk to Marinko Cicin!" " He means, Wait at the corner!" " What?" "I'm talking to her." "What I'm about to say is a comradely self-criticism." "I was a policeman before;" "had a red star on my cap." "And I believed in it." "Then everything suddenly changed." "The enemies of communism came into power." "I was young and didn't think properly." "I was manipulated and misguided." "What could I do?" "But a minute ago, up there in the field," "I saw the light." "I realized I was wrong." "And I'm sorry now." "That's why I came to you - a good man and a communist." "I'd Iike to become worthy of the red star." "I see what you really want..." "You don't feel like working, huh?" "If you don't believe me, send us back." "But it's in your best interest to have us;" "it wouldn't hurt to have young people with you." "Is that right?" "And you'd like to get a gun, huh?" "First you have to prove you mean business;" "maybe you're just pretending." "You'll be in charge of cherishing Tito's image and his exploits." "Take this and study it thoroughly." "You two will write slogans and preserve the environment." "I'll water the grass." "Go now." "And be careful..." "We'll be watching you." "I'm happy when I can talk to my comrades." "Great." "In the room there is Marx's bust." "When your Dad moves it, he'll see a hole in the floor;" "it leads to the basement and to this window." "Near the window there are a hammer and a sickle." "He breaks the padlock with the hammer, and he's out..." "Or, you could ask them to let him have tea with you, so you could tell him about this lovely plan." "They would never let you in!" "Besides, he's a sick man." "He doesn't even know today's his birthday." "Birthday..." "Birthday?" " What was that?" " A birthday baton." " For whom?" " For Tito!" "Today isn't Tito's birthday." " Who organized this?" " I did." "It's been a while..." "So I thought," "Let's make up for the years when we didn't celebrate it." " Where to?" "!" " To give Tito his birthday baton." "I'll give it to him up there." "But read it to us first." "Read it." "What are you waiting for?" "!" "Comrade Tito, Do we need a plenary" "To find the grain From my granary" "Comrade Tito, How could we cope" "When there's No grass, no dope..." "Marx, Engels, Lenin, Tito " "Emerson, Lake and Palmer" "That's not what's written here!" "Dear Comrade Tito, the greatest son of all our peoples." "We expect you to gain the last victory of our socialist struggle;" "Marx is still in front of you." "Your strength could push him from the path of progress."
