“Jovanović crafts a film that combines the realistic Yugoslav Black Wave and magical realism in an extremely powerful way. The locations of the village of Krivelj in eastern Serbia, where mines actually exist next to the houses, are perfectly shot handheld and with subdued lighting by Mladen Teofilović. The little-known actors and extras drawn from the ranks of the local population blend well into the landscape, while Nemanja Mosurović’s abstract score and Antonio Andrić’s striking sound design also complement the visuals. Carefully edited by the filmmaker himself, Branislava Stefanović, and Mina Petrović, Sun Never Again feels like a contemporary tone poem.”
