Part-telenovela, part outlandish screwball comedy, part soft-porno, but completely without a road map, Serbis evokes Pedro Almodovar, Tennessee Williams, and 1940s and '50s Hollywood.
Wesley Morris, Boston Globe

Serbis has the feel of a documentary, but a documentary can't accomplish what "Serbis" does: Take us to a corner of the world where sex and regret are so intimately entwined.

This isn't a family -- or a film -- you'll easily forget.
