#9 XIX Moscow International Film Festival

...Another low-budget winner was Zelimir Zilnik's "The Marble Ass"
(Yugoslavia). It was also about prostitutes but of a different sort --
transvestites in Belgrade. Into the peaceful lives of Merlin and Saki comes
Johnny, a sociopath from the war in Bosnia. Johnny is a pool hustler, or
fancies himself one, and a petty criminal looking for the big score that, with
people like him, never happens.
