Anica (Anica Dobra) is a woman in her early thirties who for several years has been involved with Milutin (Fedja Stojanovic), a second-string mob boss. However, Milutin also has a wife and a disturbed daughter, and Anica has come to realize he has only so much room for her in his life. Anica wants to move away and start life over, but she needs money to do that, and she plans on robbing the safe where Milutin keeps much of his loot. Stanislav (Vuk Kostic), one of Milutin's lieutenants, has gotten wind of Anica's plans and wants to spare his boss any additional annoyance as they try to prevent a skirmish with rival gangster Radovan (Josef Tatic) into exploding into a full-blown war. Hoping to keep Anica from moving away, Stanislav hopes to change her mind by sharing a secret with her -- that he's fallen in love with her. Liebe und Andere (aka Love and Other Crimes) was an official entry at the 2008 Berlin Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi
