''The Man Who Could Not Remain Silent", directed and written by Nebojša Slijepčević won the Golden Palm for Short Film at the Cannes Film Festival. The film is produced by Croatia, France, Slovenia and the Bulgarian National Film Center. It is based on a true story.
The film dramatizes the Štrpci massacre of 1933 when 24 Bosniak Muslims were pulled off a train by the White Eagles paramilitary group and massacred. The film centres on Tomo Buzov (Dragan Mićanović), the sole non-Bosniak passenger on the train who tried to stand up against the attackers.
