Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Gavrilo Princip was so malnourished and young that the Austrians legally couldn't execute him — maximum sentence was 20 years, which killed him anyway from tuberculosis in 1918.
In Serbia, Princip is a complicated martyr-hero; this film was controversial for humanizing him without fully redeeming him, mirroring Bosnia's own fractured WWI memory.
