It was no April fool's joke when Slobodan Milošević was to be arrested on April 1st 2001 in Tito's former villa. This award-winning five-part Serbian mini-series describes how dramatic the events in the three days leading up to the arrest really were. In this suspenseful docu-drama viewers initially encounter a self-confident autocrat, surrounded by passionate fellow campaigners and party apparatchiks, his frightened daughter and his melodramatic-seeming wife, the latter at the time also a member of the country’s political aristocracy. Opposing the Milošević clan are politicians from the reform-minded government of Zoran Đinđić, a young investigative reporter and her editor-in-chief, who prefers to remain politically ambivalent. The balance of power slowly changes and Milošević comes to the realisation that his followers are lying to him. Suddenly he wants to negotiate after all...
The creators of this series, led by award-winning up-and-coming director Bojan Vuletić, skilfully depict a country in upheaval, torn as it is between moral courage, democracy, nationalism, fake news and propaganda. As such, The Family represents a masterpiece of serial storytelling that has sold internationally, including in the USA and Australia.
