Reflection of the civil war in the 90ties of the last century
in croatian cinematography
This text analyzes the impact of the war in former Yugoslavia
on the area of the croatian cinematography. The war caused many
problems that the cinematography battled with, too. The
croatian film-makers had to deal with a lack of the funding and
the work itself, with the poor technical equipment in the
film-studios as well as viewer resistance. Nevertheless, the
inconsiderable amount of the movies originated in Croatia. It
was the war that became a model for lots of them. In the war
period and immediately after, when the war was still a hot
theme, the film-makers were shooting the movies, which were
connected with the former partisan movies due to their
structure. The directors intended to spread the truth about
Croatia through the movies, in which we can meet the steady
types of major figures and the sharp division on good and evil.
Few years later, the croatian film-makers managed to create the
comedies with the war theme, which serve the audiences a
completely different view. They facilitate to them to laugh
over the bitter moments of their lives. 
Longer of the war conflict, the more the directors seek to step
back from the war and try to catch the real image of the war in
their movies. The war movies represent a great importance in
the croatian cinematography. They will always bring back the
events, which sorely affected the croatian history.
