Ztracený synSynopsis
On the coast of Yugoslavia lives fisherman Ivo Kralj, his wife Marija, son Vuk, and Ivo's mother in one happy home. Marija, who loves her husband and always looks forward to his return from sea, attracts Nikola, with whom Ivo, out of jealousy, has a scuffle at a dance. After the outbreak of World War I Ivo is mobilized. He ends up in a P.O.W. camp where he is subjected to hard labour. His family then receives news of his death. The years pass and the lonely widow Marija is occasionally visited by her friend Nikola. Ivo's mother would like her to remarry. Soon after the wedding Marija becomes pregnant. Ivo, who has been thought dead, succeeds in escaping the P.O.W. camp where he has spent several years. Upon his arrival home he finds his name on a memorial erected to the victims of the war. He meets his son, who does not recognize him. Ivo searches for his mother and reproaches her for not preventing Marija's wedding. He goes away again in sorrow. Marija gives birth to a beautiful child and Nikola is a proud father. Life goes on...
Note
Starfil began shooting the film in 1933 under the title The Lost Son. After shooting several scenes in Yugoslavia the Paříž-Praha company took over production with backing of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Carl Junghans yielded as director and the Austrian F. W. Kraemer finished the film in 1935. In total, the film was shot in four separate language versions, in Czech, German, French and Serbo-Croatian. Film materials are preserved in the Serbian Jugoslovenska Kinoteka Belgrade.
