Miroslav Momčilović (b. 1969, Belgrade) graduated in dramaturgy from Belgrade’s Faculty of Dramatic Arts. Two of his plays have been staged: Beograd na kolenima (1997) and Život iz početka (2000). He wrote the script for Radivoj Andrić’s film When I Grow Up, I’ll Be a Kangaroo (Kad porastem biću kengur, 2004). His debut as a director came with Sedam i po (2006), which screened at numerous international festivals and picked up a variety of awards, including Best Debut at the Rome Independent Film Festival. His next film, Wait for Me and I Will Not Come (Čekaj me, ja sigurno neću doći, 2009), was equally well-received, with prizes including Best Direction at the Sofia IFF. Death of a Man in Balkans is his third feature, for which, like his previous two films, he also wrote the script.
