Overview

Branimir Šćepanović (1937–2020) was a Yugoslav writer. He is best remembered for his novels Sramno leto ('Shameful Summer', 1965) and Usta Puna Zemlje ('Mouth Full of Earth', 1974), short stories Pre istine ('Before truth', 1961) and Srmt gospodina Goluže ('The Death of Mr. Goluzha', 1977), and his screenplays for several feature films.

Šćepanović started writing in his high school days. His most famous novel, 'Usta puna zemlje', was translated in many foreign languages, had 32 editions in Serbia and 23 editions in France. His 1977 novella 'Smrt gospodina Goluže' appeared in several world philologies and received two cinematic adaptations: in 1982 by Živko Nikolić, and in 1997 by Alan Wade (as 'Julian Po'). For several years Šćepanović served as artistic director of Avala Film, and went on to win the October award of the city of Belgrade and two Golden Arenas for Best Screenplay.
