Plavi 9

Krešo Golik, 1949.

Categories: Feature Film

Directed by Krešo Golik, "Plavi 9" holds a historic place as the very first sports feature and sports comedy in Croatian cinema. The narrative follows a local shipyard worker who rises through the ranks to become a football star. Echoing the real-world connection between Rijeka's iconic 3. Maj Shipyard and the nearby Kantrida Stadium, it is no coincidence that - alongside sequences shot in Zagreb, Belgrade, and Split - the production heavily utilized authentic Rijeka backdrops.
