Synopsis

Gangster of Love is a documentary tragicomedy, which highlights some serious social issues. Twenty-five years ago Nedjeljko Babić left his job as a carpenter to begin his God-given career: matching lonely men and women. He became famous very fast, thanks to his skill as a matchmaker, but also his nickname – Gangster. He got it solely thanks to his image: he always wears sunglasses. When the pretty Bulgarian Maja (33) asks Gangster to help her find a new husband, it initially appears to be a simple task. But she is a single mother and a foreigner, making it a mission impossible for Gangster.
