description About

The Nobel Prize drew attention not only to the works of Ivo Andrić, but also to his biography. The reputation of the winner of the greatest prize in the world is also the reputation of the country from which he comes. State services, tasked with ensuring that reputation, are reviewing a video from a military parade in Berlin in 1940, where Andrić, then a diplomat of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, is seen in the immediate vicinity of Hitler. In the writer's house, the phone doesn't stop ringing and Andrić feels that his whole life so far is exposed to the views and comments of the public. He goes back to the post-war years, to the founding assembly of the Association of Writers, the Belgrade meeting with Krlež, conversations with Isidora Sekulić. In 1945, Nenad Jovanović, Milica Babić's husband, returns from the Dachau camp, and Andrić goes to Bulgaria for the Meeting of Balkan Writers.
