Little Rascal

The debut book by Tisja Kljaković Braić, "U malu je uša đava" (Little Rascal), has been consistently at the top of the charts for most-read and best-selling books in Croatia for a long time. Since its content, through a series of humorous stories, brings to life the Split of the 1980s, which still irresistibly resembles Smojin Split from "Veliko misto" and Fellini's Mediterranean, the path to a theatrical adaptation has naturally and expectedly presented itself.

Little Rascal

Director Mario Kovač has taken on the dramatization of the story about a little girl growing up under the care of her grandmother and grandfather. She hides in a kiosk, dislikes going to kindergarten, plays cards with her grandfather supporting Hajduk, and goes swimming with neighbors under Marjan. From birth until the onset of the war, which coincides with the author's enrollment in high school, we follow the family – father, mother, grandfather, grandmother, neighbors from the same building and street, with the protagonist, a mischievous girl, intelligent, gifted, and a bit spoiled, at the center. Through a series of entertaining stories, blending laughter and tears, we witness a typical Dalmatian and Mediterranean childhood full of joy, trust, and love.
