Ane
En la primera parte de su trilogía bélica, Zafranovic cuenta la historia de la distinta evolución ideológica y moral de tres jóvenes amigos y la hermana de uno de ellos durante el auge del fascismo, ya a las puertas de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Película extremadamente cruda en algunos de sus pasajes (que recrean el terrorismo y crímenes de la Ustacha), lírica en otros, de narrativa enérgica, que plantea un profundo dilema moral y constituye un gran fresco de la sociedad croata en aquellos convulsos años.
