The Marathon Family (Serbian: Маратонци трче почасни круг / Maratonci trče počasni krug, lit.

The Marathon Runners) is a 1982 Yugoslav black comedy film written by Dušan Kovačević and directed by Serbian director Slobodan Šijan.

Although based on mutual financial interest, the relationship between the Topalovićs and Bili is deteriorating as they owe him money for his services and show little intention of paying him.

In parallel, the Topalovićs are in the finishing stages of building a modern crematorium on which they are placing high hopes as the future source of income.

Piton demands his money and threatens to report them to the police for accidentally running down and killing a man, but Mirko has stolen the family funds.
