It could happen to anyone. Marko is fired from his teaching position in the wake of false sexual harassment allegations, just as his wife Dunja is laid off when her company downsizes. With no safety net to help them stay afloat, how can their once happy middle class family of four avoid looming financial ruin and keep their household intact? A searing social drama with far-reaching consequences, The Basics of Killing underscores the thin line between security and desperation. (Chicago International Film Festival)
