About The Cabinet Minister's Wife
After becoming a minister's wife, Živka changes her former way of life and becomes a lady. However, her fashionable way of life is of short duration, since her husband is forced to resign after being involved in a scandal. Based on highly popular Serbian comedy novel by Branislav Nušić.
Directed by Žorž Skrigin, The Cabinet Minister's Wife leans on a strong ensemble — Marica Popović, Jovan Gec, Severin Bijelić — 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 1958.
