The Living and the Dead (Croatian: Živi i mrtvi) is a 2007 Croatian action horror film directed by Kristijan Milić.
It tells the story of Bosnian Croat (HVO) fighters who, while fighting in the Croat–Bosniak War (1992–1994), face something not entirely of this world. The film was released in 2007. It was filmed in Bosnia and Herzegovina, at a small town known as Prozor-Rama. In 2007, the film won the Big Golden Arena for Best Film at the Pula Film Festival.
Plot
[edit]In 1943, group of Croatian soldiers overtake a strategically important point in western Bosnia with a goal to destroy a group of communist partisans. On the way they met some supernatural phenomena, and the action itself went very badly because the partisans ambushed them. The main character Martin inherits silver cigarette case from a dying soldier. This act connects to the story in 1993 when we meet Martins grandson Tomo. He is one of six soldiers of the Croatian army who have come to the same place in Bosnia to meet the same phenomena and similar fate.
