Dušan Makavejev
Description[from Freebase]
Dušan Makavejev (Serbian Cyrillic: Душан Макавејев, Serbian pronunciation: [dǔʃan makaʋɛ̌jɛʋ]) (born 13 October 1932 in Belgrade, Kingdom of Yugoslavia) is a Serbian film director and screenwriter, famous for his groundbreaking films of Yugoslav cinema in the late 1960s and early 1970s, many of which are part of the Black Wave. His most successful movie was the 1971 political satire WR: Mysteries of the Organism, which he directed and wrote. His first three feature films Man Is Not a Bird (1965), Love Affair, or the Case of the Missing Switchboard Operator (1967) starring actress and icon of the "black wave" period in film Eva Ras, and Innocence Unprotected (1968) won Dušan Makavejev international acclaim. The latter won him the Silver Bear Extraordinary Prize of the Jury at the 18th Berlin International Film Festival. In 1970, he was a member of the jury at the 20th Berlin International Film Festival. His next movie W.R.: Mysteries of the Organism (1971, starring Milena Dravić, Jagoda Kaloper, and Ivica Vidović) was banned in Yugoslavia due to sexual-political content and resulted in Makavejev's exile from the country, which ended in 1988.
