Dara of Jasenovac Storyline

The film is set in the Nazi-occupied Croatian Ustasha regime “NDH” in former Yugoslavia during WWII. The film is told through the experiences of a little girl named Dara who is sent as a child during the Holocaust in the Balkans to the infamous extermination camp complex Jasenovac, also known as “Balkan’s Auschwitz”, when it was ruled by sadistic camp commander Maks Luburic until the liberation. The film is the first modern WWII movie that takes place in or shows this NDH era camp.

Dara of Jasenovac Movie Reviews

Poignant and brutal, but above all, factual

Okay, coming from this background, my review might be biased, but objectively speaking, while definitely not a cinematographic masterpiece, this film has power to stay with long after the credits roll. Especially when you know that all you’ve seen is true. Ustashi regime was even worse than Nazi and death camp Jasenovac was literal hell on Earth. I am glad and thankful to director for bringing that vision on screen, vision we should never forget. Vision that was hidden or watered down during communist period. But that is now over. And I hope we make more movies like this. And no, this isn’t for political reasons.

8/10

True story

Sad true story… Excellent film… Please watch this film!

First story about a notorious death camp for children that appalled even the Na-zis

Bob Dylan famously said “If you have slave running through your blood or are a descent of the Ku Klux Klan, black people can sense that. It remains to this day. Just as Jews can sense Nazi blood, or as Serbs can sense Croat blood.” He knew what he was talking about.

Croatian Ustashe, who committed the most vicious part of the Holocaust – they were authors of the first death camp in WWII, and their cruel methods inspired Na-zis to both make death camps and make them less barbaric, because even for the most hardened Nazi, what Croats did was appalling. Croats had a goal to exterminate one third of Serbs, convert one third to Catholicism, and expel the rest, an ongoing policy that also includes Croatian statewide holocaust denial and minimization, that puts Iran to shame. The only regime that had dea th camps specifically made for children, Ustashe are sadly celebrated by some like no other neo-nazis.

There is another famous poet, Jovan Ducic, who during his exile in US during WWII made a comment about Croats and the vicious genocide they were all to merry to perpetrate. He said “Croats are the bravest people in the world, not because they have no fear, but because they have no shame!” The campaign against this movie, sponsored by the Croatian state, confirms that he, too, like Bob Dylan, knew what he was talking about.
