The Living Truth started the career of Bozidarka Frajt, whose performance won the Golden Arena for Best Actress at the 1972 Pula Film Festival. Bozidarka Frajt (playing herself) is an actress who is unsuccessfully looking for a job in Zagreb. The film follows her everyday life: she spends time with her friends and colleagues, shoots a television commercial, goes to a party, remembers her difficult childhood as a war orphan, and contemplates her professional and personal failures.
The film was shot in the first half of 1971, over nine working days, in ultra-low budget conditions. Framing and camera movement were not planned in advance. The Living Truth was characterized as an "unrepresentative depiction of the social scene" and received the permit for public screening only after a lengthy delay. In a 1999 poll among 44 Croatian film critics and film historians, The Living Truth placed 20th in the list of all-time best Croatian films.
