Goran Tribuson

When Petar's marriage and family life fall apart due to his innability to separate professional and personal life, he decides to take a journey of self-discovery and takes on a job of driving a van full of humanitarian aid from Zagreb to Dubrovnik, meeting two people who will change his life forever.

A growing conflict between two criminals over the control of the Zagreb neighborhood of Pešćenica starts mirroring the ethnic and sociopolitical struggles in the world around them.

Lifelong rivalry between police inspector and professional criminal escalates on New Years Eve, 1990.

The adventures of a small town Croatian family during the 1960s. The decade will leave eternal marks on all of their members, but most of the story focuses on the youngest one, a boy, Frula, who discovers the love and fashion of the time.

Osijek, Eastern Croatian Front, 1991. British ecologist Henry arrives in town to find and protect the oak in the village of Stari Rastovac, believed to be the oldest of its kind in the world, from getting torn down by both enemy forces and Croatian soldiers. He's joined in his efforts by a British reporter, a mysterious local teenage guide and a member of the Croatain National Guard, with the merry crew encountering a slew of troubles and misadventures along their way through the no man's land.

When he was five years old, Ivan Hum was kidnapped and was forced to spend his formative years in orphanages, prisons and other institutions all around Europe, always desperately searching for a way back to his family. Several decades later, he discovers that his mother's grave is located in a small town in northern Croatia and chooses to visit it. However, upon arrival into town, he's told that the local cemetary had been submerged underwater as a result of a swamp flood, so that, if he still wishes to perform the funerary rites properly, he'll have to wait a few more months until the waters recede and the local authorities do something about the situation. He decides to stay, finds a place to stay in a cheap apartment, gets a job and even strikes up a romance with his landlady. But, pretty soon after things arrival, various mysterious incidents start plagueing the township and Ivan convinces himself that they have something to do with his belated return.
