- Orig. Title: Velika avantura Gospodina Šmrkljića
This is the bizarre story of a man called Silly Josef, who is not actually a man. He is an automaton. He moves and speaks, but there is nobody in charge of the controls. What little intelligence he has in his head derives, not from his brain but from the race of Boogers that live in his nose.
