 ZAGREB:
Director/screenwriter Branko Schmidt is in postproduction with the dramatic
feature film Cannibal Vegetarian,
with an expected completion date of February 2012. The 85-minute film is
produced by Stanislav Babic for Telefilm.
The film's
central character is Markan, an ambitious and amoral
gynaecologist at Croatia's leading fertility clinic, whose own practice suffers
when he tries to destroy a colleague's success. In the process he begins
performing illegal abortions, leading to the death of a prostitute, and becomes
involved with the mafia.
Schmidt's most recent feature film, The Melon Route (2006), won
numerous awards in Croatia and was screened at international festivals
worldwide.
