Three Croatian feature films were nominated for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, several of them gained awards at major festivals, and the Croatian contribution in the field of animation is particularly important. History Early 20th century Although motion pictures appeared in Croatia relatively early, for most of the early 20th Century film was almost exclusively the domain of a few dedicated amateur enthusiasts, most notably Josip Karaman in Split and, later, Oktavijan Miletić in Zagreb.

The first full-length movie was Brcko u Zagrebu released in 1917, and dir ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Unlike other forms of literary study, comparative literature places its emphasis on the interdisciplinary analysis of social and cultur ...
