The Battle of Neretva
Directed by Veljko Bulajić
Produced by Jadran Film, Eichberg-Film
A large-scale WWII drama centered on a desperate military campaign where survival depends on crossing a strategic river under enemy pressure.
In January 1943 the German army, afraid of an Allied invasion of the Balkans, launched a great offensive against Yugoslav Partisans in Western Bosnia. The only way out for Partisan forces and thousands of refugees was the bridge on the river Neretva.
