Marshal Tito's Spirit

7.6 1999 Movie Comedy Drama Mystery Fantasy

Stipan is a policeman who comes to small Adriatic island off the Croatian coast in order to investigate the reports of strange phenomena that had frightened the local population. At first, nobody wants to co-operate with him, until he finds out that the island is allegedly haunted by the ghost of Josip Broz Tito, the communist leader of the former Yugoslavia. For Luka, the mayor, this is an opportunity to turn the entire island into a Tito-themed amusement park. Tito's WW2 veterans, on the other hand, don't believe in ghosts. For them, the apparition is actually Tito himself, who had returned in order to lead them into a new revolution which would restore communism.

It’s inspiring true story about two thirteen-year-old girls who were, on the eve of World War II, great dancing and acting stars in Zagreb.

They were filmed by Parisian Pathe and Berlin’s UFA… During the Nazi persecution of Jews and the later German nationals’ flight from communists, a dramatic friendship was born through entertainment, dance, but also anxiety. This led towards an unexpected end.
