About Master of His Own Body
Due to negligence that caused the death of a family cow, an extremely poor but handsome young man Iva must obey his father's demands to marry an unattractive and limping daughter of wealthy villagers.
Directed by Fedor Hanžeković, Master of His Own Body leans on a strong ensemble — Marija Kohn, Julije Perlaki, Mladen Šerment — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1957.
