Country: Macedonia
Director: Darko Mitrevski
Cast: Sasko Kocev, Katarina Ivanovska, Richard Sammel, Rade Sherbedgia & Emil Ruben.
Set against the background of the Second World War, it's about the Macedonia Football Club, a team that struggles to win a game in the league of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. The owner of the Club invites famous German footballer Spitz to coach his team.
The Third Half is based on the true story of a young girl from a rich Jewish family who fell in love with a poor Macedonian football player. Mitrevski, the director dedicate this movie to Neta Cohen and other survivours. The whole cast provides decent performances and Richard Sammel is remarkable as the coach of the team. The film was selected as the Macedonian entry for the Best Foreign Language Oscar at the 85th Academy Awards and it also makes some controversy when three Bulgarian MEPs made an accusation that Macedonia is trying to promote their identity through fake notes. Overall, It's a likable sport-romance movie and loves the way it is presented.
Verdict: Good
