Logline:
Princess by accident, Altinaï drives across Montenegro to deliver her grandfather’s suitcases - relics of the last king who died in exile. Between breakdowns, lost treasures, a utopian Slava and family secrets, she embarks us on an improbable fairy tale through the ruins of History.
Synopsis:
Altinaï flies to Montenegro with a mission: to deliver to the Cetinje Museum the heavy suitcases of her grandfather, the last king in exile, and to organize the first family Slava in a hundred years. These trunks are overflowing with relics — fragments of an identity puzzle where intimate memory and Great History intertwine. But before she can drop them off, she must first collect, scattered all over the country, the missing pieces: a portrait of Njegoš from her cousins in Njeguši, a handwrit-ten letter from Prince Mirko locked in a bank in Budva, the icon of Saint George from her father in Podgorica, and other treasures dispersed along the way. Her journey turns into a burlesque escapade: a monumental hangover and forgotten luggage at her cousins’ place, a breakdown in the middle of nowhere that forces her to hitchhike, a car accident that compels her to call Rambo Amadeus for help, and — worst of all — the loss of a dynastic jew-el. Meanwhile, a journalist from Point de Vue – Images du Monde relentlessly hounds her. What to do with the weight of such a genealogy? But the greatest pressure is still the organization of the Slava. Assisted by a phlegmatic collaborator, Altinaï must convince Prince Albert of Monaco, a few European royal cousins… and even Sté-phane Bern to attend this historic event, which — tradition obliges — will welcome friends and family of every stripe, regardless of social standing. Along battered roads and through family archives, between flashbacks and ghosts of the past, Altinaï slowly stitches back together the thread of her own identity. She relives the moment when, at twelve, she discovered she was a princess of Montenegro, and plunges again into History to better understand where she comes from. Between black humor, Balkan absurdities, and an intimate quest, this tragicomic road movie braids together family memory and the grand sweep of Balkan history.

Logline:
Slučajna princeza, Altinaj vozi kroz Crnu Goru da isporuči đedove kofere - relikvije posljednjeg kralja koji je umro u egzilu. Između kvarova, izgubljenih dragocjenosti, utopijske slave i porodičnih tajni, vodi nas u nevjerovatnu bajku kroz ruševine Istorije.
SInopsis:
Altinaj dolazi u Crnu Goru s misijom: da u Cetinjski muzej preda teške kofere svog djeda, posljednjeg kralja u egzilu, i da organizuje prvu porodičnu slavu nakon sto godina. Ti koferi prepuni su relikvija - fragmenata identitetske slagalice u kojoj se isprepliću lično pamćenje i Velika istorija. Ali prije nego što ih preda, mora da sakupi nedostajuće dijelove razasute širom zemlje: portret Njegoša od rođaka u Njegušima, rukom pisano pismo knjaza Mirka zaključano u banci u Budvi, ikonu Svetog Đorđa od oca u Podgorici i druge dragocjenosti izgubljene putem. Njeno putovanje pretvara se u burlesknu pustolovinu: mamurluk i zaboravljeni prtljag kod rođaka, kvar automobila usred ničega zbog kojeg mora da stopira, saobraćajna nesreća nakon koje u pomoć zove Ramba Amadeusa i - što je najgore - gubitak dragulja dinastije. U međuvremenu, novinar iz Point de Vue – Images du Monde neumorno je prati. Šta učiniti s teretom takve genealogije? A najveći pritisak ipak je organizacija slave. Uz pomoć flegmatičnog saradnika, Altinaj mora da ubijedi princa Alberta od Monaka, nekoliko evropskih rođaka iz kraljevskih porodica… pa čak i Stefana Berna da prisustvuju ovom istorijskom događaju, koji će, kako tradicija nalaže, okupiti prijatelje i porodicu svih slojeva društva. Kroz krivudave puteve i porodične arhive, između flešbekova i duhova prošlosti, Altinaj polako ponovo ušiva nit sopstvenog identiteta. Prisjeća se trenutka kada je, sa dvanaest godina, otkrila da je princeza Crne Gore i ponire opet u Istoriju kako bi bolje razumjela odakle dolazi. Između crnog humora, balkanskih apsurda i intimne potrage, ovaj tragi-komični „road movie“ prepliće porodično pamćenje s velikim tokovima balkanske istorije.
