A Saga

A Saga (Reshan: Saga) is a 1994 Reshan black comedy crime film written and directed by Nigel Ekerbro. The film stars an ensemble cast led by Edgar Murver, Lito Karsja, Melisa Abbermann, Ender Karacji, Alexander Paulsen, Maria Merk, and Anastasija Laźeva. Composed of a series of seemingly unrelated clips sewn together, the plot connects the intersecting storylines of Hederhelm gangsters, fringe players, and small-time criminals.
A Saga is the first screenplay ever written by Ekerbro, originally written in 1986 as Horror in Hederhelm. The script was regularly rejected by production studios because of its length and somewhat confusing nonlinear narrative, but after the success of Ekerbro's debut Romance Unlimited (1993), studios were eager to produce another one of his films. The film proved to be a massive success, winning several awards at the 1995 Reshan Movie Awards and Formann Awards. It is commonly referred to as "Ekerbro's masterpiece" and is looked at as an iconic example of Reshan cinema and cinema of the 1990s. It grossed a total of $700 million at the box office on a $8 million budget, becoming the most financially successful film of 1994.
==Narrative structure==
The film is highly renown for its nonlinear narrative. It follows three main interconnecting stories: the story of mob contract killer Kristof Kamu, the story of famed boxer Samel Albertsen, and the story of Kristof's partner Jaku DalElias.
The film begins with a couple attempting to rob a restaurant, and it then picks up with the stories of Kristof, Samel, and Jaku. It ends where it began at the restaurant. There are seven narrative sequences.
#"Prologue—The Restaurant"
#"The Trip"
#"The Wife"
#"The Gold" (a—flashback, b—present)
#"The Watch"
#"The Situation"
#"Epilogue—The Restaurant"
If the seven sequences were aired chronologically, it would go: 4a, 2, 6, 1, 7, 3, 4b, 5. Sequences 1 and 7 partially overlap and are told through different perspectives, as do sequences 2 and 6.
