Comment:The film was directed by Živorad Žika Mitrović, a Serb, who developed a specific genre known as the ‘Kosovo western’ or ‘partisan western’. The genre has the form of a western but features content typical for partisan films. The film was released in 1955. The magazine ‘Progress Filmillustrierte’ was produced by the German Democratic Republic.
