    BELGRADE: A series of successful opening weekends for new Serbian films this autumn has continued with Sandra Mitrović’s debut feature Three-Storey Comedy / Komedija na tri sprata, which reached no. 2 in the local box office last weekend, second to Dwayne Johnson’s Black Adam.

Both films debuted in Serbian cinemas in September 2022.

    Three-Storey Comedy follows the comical adventures of the tenants of a seemingly ordinary building in Belgrade with bad pipes.
