Yugo goes to America

During one summer, three people born in the 90-ies in Serbia go on a trip to America – driving a “Yugo” from New York to Los Angeles. The film follows their journey through 23 federal states and over 10,000 kilometers traveled, all in order to tell us the story of the export of a small socialist car to the competitive Reagan America in the 80-ies. 33 years after the last “Yugo” was imported to America, the authors of the film go on the adventure of a lifetime, fulfilling the last “bucket list” of the “Yugo”.
