Year: 2010 Director: Michael Tolajian Writers: Zak Levitt & Michael Tolajian Narrator: Vlade Divac Volume: II Episode: 3 "Once Brothers" is a sports documentary film, part of ESPN's "30 for 30" series. The film, released in 2010, tells the story of Dražen Petrović and Vlade Divac, two of the best European basketball players and NBA stars, who were once teammates and friends while representing the Yugoslavian national team in the late 1980s. However, the Yugoslav Wars that broke out in the early 1990s, which led to the breakup of Yugoslavia into separate nations, caused a rift between Petrović, a Croat, and Divac, a Serb. The documentary explores the impact of the war on their relationship, as well as their lives and careers, offering a poignant look at how political events can affect personal relationships. Dražen Petrović tragically died in a car accident in 1993, making the story even more heartbreaking as Divac and Petrović were never able to reconcile before Petrović's untimely death. The film is a compelling account of friendship, loss, and the tragic impact of war.
