On Tuesday 19 September, veteran Croatian filmmaker Rajko Grlić started shooting his latest film, titled It All Ends Here, on location in Zagreb. “I am glad that my last film will be a love story deeply immersed in Croatian reality,” Grlić said at the start of filming.

It All Ends Here tells the story of a successful lawyer who comes into conflict with a powerful client. Although he risks losing everything, he does not give up. Genre-wise, the film blends the elements of a love story, a crime-drama and a thriller. The script was written by the filmmaker in collaboration with writer Ante Tomić, and marks their fourth collaboration following Border Post (2006), Just Between Us [+lire aussi :
