A sci-fi sitcom.

"First Role" is a live action - documentary about two carefree high school students from a small town in Serbia who are rehearsing for their first performance in a school play. This will turn out to be the defining moment for both of them and kick-start the career of one of the biggest names in Yugoslavian film.

A story inspired by the largest single rescue mission of downed Allied airmen behind enemy lines in aviation history of all time, codenamed “The Halyard Mission”. This action took place in the summer of 1944. It was led by the Yugoslav Army in the Fatherland that was headed by General Dragoljub “Draža” Mihailović. It was at great cost and sacrifice that the Serbian people saved 508 American and other Allied countries’ airmen from certain death, sending them off to safety from the improvised airfield in the Serbian village of Pranjani, at the foot of Mt Suvobor.

At the doorstep of his ancestral home, one resilient man embraces the spirit of Saint George, choosing dignity and faith over surrender.

A teenager from a poor suburb, Lukica spends his days fighting or looking for work at a local market. His friend Sara lives in a brick house and does online pornography.
