Martin in the Clouds

Martin is a naive, talkative law student who lives as a tenant in the Solar couple's apartment. He caretakes the couple's dog, Cezar, and remains hopeful about buying a joint apartment with Zorica. His scatterbrained optimism makes him susceptible to quick plans and scams, even as he tries to do the right thing for those he loves.

Zorica is Martin's student girlfriend who strongly resists the apartment-rental plan. She dislikes the scheme and is openly skeptical, but her jealousy surfaces when Marcella attracts Martin's attention. She represents the more practical, wary side of the relationship and pushes back against opportunistic ideas.

Carmine is the suave Italian businessman traveling to Zagreb with his daughter Marcella. He becomes the vehicle through which the plan to acquire property is framed, embodying charm and a sense of possibility that entices the others. His presence adds an international, aspirational flavor to the scheme.

Marcella is Carmine's charming daughter, whose allure sparks jealousy in Zorica and stirs Martin's interest. Her presence complicates the plot as the Italian delegation becomes entangled with Zagreb’s housing schemes. She embodies the seductive, persuasive force that tests trust and loyalty.

Mrazek is the real estate agent who lures the group with the promise of a swift, profitable apartment purchase. He disappears after taking the money and fails to deliver documents, revealing himself as the schemer behind the deceptive deal. His actions catalyze the unraveling of everyone’s plans.

Vjenceslav is Martin's eccentric, talkative uncle and an inventor who comes up with the original idea of renting out the Solar apartment. His blithe scheming and optimism propel the plot forward, even as his plans often misfire. He embodies a reckless ingenuity that blurs lines between cleverness and folly.
