Zagreb premiere of the film "Dawn over Mostar"
The documentary film "Dawn over Mostar" directed by Zdenko Jurilj is having its Zagreb premiere on January 21, 2026 at the KNAP Cultural Center, as part of the Homeland Documentary Film Festival. The film focuses on Operation “Lipanjske zore” (June Dawns) from 1992, one of the key victories in the Croatian War of Independence, which led to the lifting of the siege of Mostar and the Neretva Valley, as well as the liberation of a large part of southern Croatia. The documentary features authentic footage, archival materials, and testimonies from participants, further enhanced by the dramatic inclusion of intercepted field communications. The film was also screened in Split last November. The executive producer of the film is Kadar Film and Video Production from Široki Brijeg.
