Testament is a witty and heartfelt story set in a Bosnian village and the industrial city of Zenica in the early 1990s. It humorously explores the importance of a will—and the consequences of its absence—within local culture. Through the lives of ordinary people, the film reveals a series of small conflicts and misunderstandings over property, tradition, and human relationships, where old customs collide with a reality full of human flaws—gambling, gossip, love, and petty theft.

The main character, Asad, after losing his father’s inheritance, must find his way in the world of industrial Zenica, local taverns, and everyday village troubles. By his side is his best friend Dževad, a charming character facing his own problems, always looking for shortcuts to a solution.
