About Branka
Branka made her first movie when she was 14, and has since collaborated with some of the most influential directors in the region and worldwide, and has worked alongside world renowned actors including Javier Bardem, Johnny Depp and Christian Bale.

Branka started her collaboration with UNHCR by supporting efforts around the inclusion and integration of refugees into Serbian society. After visiting unaccompanied refugees in Belgrade, Branka immediately became determined to be an advocate for the forcibly displaced.

Brank continues to use her voice and platform to promote UNHCR awareness campaigns, events and advocacy efforts, including around World Refugee Day.
