Tranquilizer Gun (Puška za uspavljivanje) is a 1997 Croatian film directed by Hrvoje Hribar.

Plot

Janko (Rene Medvešek), a police officer, meets Marta (Alma Prica), a widow of Karlo Štajner, a war profiteer who left his business in disarray. Janko can't decide between Marta and Nana (Nina Violić), his kleptomaniac wife. Janko's affair with Marta unwittingly gets him involved in a complex criminal plot...[1][2]

Reception

The critics praised the actors[1][3] and the film's visual style,[1] but found it lacking in energy[2][3] and suffering from an overly complicated plot towards the end.[1]

Tranquilizer Gun did not find success either at the Pula Film Festival or the Croatian box office - partly due to inadequate promotion - but received the 1998 Oktavijan Award from the Croatian Association of Film Critics.[1]
