culture history of Montenegro was influenced by Venezia, its Italian
neighbor across the Adriatic sea. The

first printed book by south Slavs so called "Octoih" was
printed in Montenegro in the printing press called "OBOD". The

from the Montenegrin State Museum, in Cetinje, the old capital of
Montenegro and from Yugoslav archives (Zagreb Television).
The film represents a short review of Montenegrin history since
the 15th
century. The
film is a true reflection of the country, its people and the glorious
history of this small Balkan country so called Montenegro ("black
mountains"). Dr.
