One Song a Day Takes Mischief Away is a 1970 Croatian film. Its original title is Tko pjeva zlo ne misli, which means "He Who Sings Means No Harm". Directed by Krešo Golik and based on a novel by Vjekoslav Majer, the film achieved considerable critical and commercial success at the time of its release and is today widely regarded as the best Croatian film ever made.
Set in pre-World War II Zagreb, the story is seen through the eyes of 6 year old Perica Šafranek (played by Tomislav Žganec). A dandy from Zagreb, Mr Fulir (played by Relja Bašić), starts flirting with Perica's mother during a family picnic. At first, Perica's father doesn't notice anything, but wants to marry off Perica's aunt, so he invites the man to their residence. After multiple rendezvous, Perica's father becomes aware of Fulir's attempts to seduce his wife.
