When Father Was Away on Business

The Tito-Stalin split unleashes a devastating impact on a family's dynamics, further straining the father's relationship with his loved ones as a result of his betrayal.

The split between Tito and Stalin in 1948 plunges Yugoslavia into a perilous era for devoted Communists. One misstep, such as commenting on a cartoon, can land someone like Mesha in prison alongside many others. His family is left to navigate this crisis, anxiously awaiting his release, as seen through the eyes of his young son Malik, who is unaware of the truth about his father's "business trip".
