Hajrudin Krvavac
Hajrudin "Šiba" Krvavac (22 December 1926 – 11 July 1992) was a Bosnian film director most notable for directing movies from the Partisan film genre during 1960s and 70s. His gift for precise storytelling was visible in his early documentaries and would become a staple of his feature films later on. Starting with his directorial debut, the segment ''Otac (Father)'' of the anthology film ''Vrtlog'' (''Vortex'', 1964), all his feature films are action films set in World War II. Their storytelling owes a lot to comic books and American action films, especially westerns, with an imaginative combination of action and emotions, personal drama and epic tragedy, idealised heroism and psychological trials, sometimes with a dose of humor. Because of the style of his films, Krvavac was sometimes compared to Howard Hawks. Early life and career Hajrudin Krvavac was born in the Mejtaš neighborhood of Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina on 22 December 1926. His parents, both originally from Gac ...

Dragomir Gidra Bojanić
Dragomir () is a Slavic masculine name, mostly found in Serbia, Slovenia, Croatia, North Macedonia, Bulgaria, Russia, and Ukraine as well as Romania. It is composed of the Slavic words '' drag'' (dear, precious) and ''mir'' (peace), both very common in Slavic dithematic names. It can be translated as ''To whom peace is precious'', i.e. ''He who cares about peace''. However, the ending ''mir'', found in many Slavic names, has developed from the Old Slavic term *''meru'' which meant 'large, great, greatly'. Thus the original Old Slavic meaning of the name would be ''He who is very dear'' or ''He who is very precious'' (to his family). The female form of the name is Dragomira (or Drahomíra), Dragomirka and is also very popular.
