Emil Kusturica admitted that his last work was hard for him:

Filming "The Milky Way" was very hard for me, I had to perform two important roles: to play the main character and follow the general concept of the picture. This was hard. The work of the actor and director is completely different, what I saw on the playbook was very different from my director's idea, I had to remake again and again. I decided to focus only on directing.
