The Human Aspect of Srđa

I was born into heavy injustice with a lack of freedom and combined with the punk rock era, joining, and leading the student uprising as an activist, came natural to me.

I felt I couldn’t escape the responsibility and expectations as one of the leaders, and with it the loneliness and sacrifices grew.
