"Elusive Mist" is a documentary about Serbian writer Duro Damjanovic-a persecuted dissident and patriot whose work earned him the most prestigious literary prizes and a place in anthologies of Serbian literature. Damjanovic embodied the ancient bohemian spirit that Serbian literature celebrated through figures like Tin Ujevic and Rade Drainac. His life and writings were marked by a rejection of material values and symbols of success, asserting that the true meaning of life is only revealed after death. This film tells the story of the last bohemian of Banja Luka-a genius whose creative potential was curtailed by the circumstances of his life. Though he was unable to complete all he wished to write, his greatest book is still being written. —RTRS
