Summary/Abstract: The marking of the centenary of the beginning of the Great War (as the First World War used to be called while humanity had yet to confront the Second World War) has attracted a lot of attention from our public these past two years. The Centenary was marked in different ways in all of the scientific and cultural institutions of Serbia. A great number of television broadcasts were recorded (documentaries, scholarly docu-dramas), but no feature film, so Žika Mitrović’s March on the Drina from 1964 remains our only war movie about the First World War.
