An introduction to the films of Croatian film director Rajko Grlic, one of the pre-eminent members of the Prague School of Yugoslav cinema. Grlic's films span the historical eras of the former Socialist Federative Republic of Yugoslavia, its violent disintegration in the 1990s, and the contemporary emergence of Croatia on the eve of its impending entrance into the European Union.With critical commentaries, biographical timeline, filmography, and bibliography, both film scholars and cinephiles will find a critical entryway into the work of a director whose vision magnifies and illuminates the personal struggles of unforgettable characters caught by historical forces, yet determined to control their own destinies. Published in conjunction with "The Films of Rajko Grlic: A Retrospective," sponsored by the College of Fine Arts, Ohio University, February 2010.
