Production

The movie is based on a true story, in which the driver that caused a fatal 1957 bus-truck collision was never identified. "H-8" is the beginning of that driver's license plate, the only available information on the culprit's vehicle.^[1]

Reception

In 1999, a poll of Croatian film critics found it to be one of the best Croatian films ever made.^[2]

Awards

H-8 won the Big Golden Arena for Best Film at the 1958 Pula Film Festival.^[3]
