Wikipedia article'Silent Gunpowder' is a 1990 Yugoslav war film directed by Bato engi, starring Mustafa Nadarevi, Branislav Lei, Fabijan ovagovi, Mira Furlan, Boro Stjepanovi and Josip Pejakovi. PlotBased on a novel by Branko opi and set during World War II, the film tells the story of a Bosnian Serb village in the mountains of Bosnia and its villagers who found themselves divided along two opposing ideological lines in the face of the Axis invasion and subsequent occupation of the country, represented by the royalist Chetniks and the communist Partisans. These two opposing sides are personified in the Partisan commander nicknamed panac (lit. "Spaniard", played by Mustafa Nadarevi) and a former Royal Army officer Milo Radeki (played by Branislav Lei). panac sees Radeki as the cause of villagers' resistance to the new communist ideology, and so the main plot revolves around the conflict between them.
