The eradication of smallpox represents one of modern medicine’s greatest triumphs, but in 1972 a little known chapter in the history of smallpox played out in Yugoslavia. This gripping archival documentary, aptly described by its creators as a medical thriller, reconstructs the dramatic events of those spring months, when Yugoslavia expended almost inconceivable efforts in order to contain the rapidly spreading danger.

Mladen Kovačević directed from his own script.
