Recorded live at Warehouse C during the 49th International Film Festival of Thessaloniki.

After the split, the eastern part of Zabranjeno PuĊĦenje (No Smoking Orchestra) released one new album under the same name - 1997's Ja nisam odavle. In 1999 the band was then renamed Emir Kusturica & No Smoking Orchestra, released four more albums and continued touring all around the world. In 1998 they composed the music for Emir Kusturica's film Black Cat, White Cat, which won the Silver Lion at the Venice Film Festival the same year. Since June 1999, they have been regularly touring worldwide. Their popularity is particularly notable in Southern Europe (Italy, Portugal, Spain, France) where most of their initial touring took place in late 1990s and early 2000s and in Latin America where the band first played in 2001, gradually developing a fan base throughout the continent, especially in Argentina. Lately, the band has also much success in Russia, Ukraine, Belarus and Armenia.
