About this audio guide
This guide walks Ilica, the long shopping street running west from Zagreb's main square, in the company of the photographer Tošo Dabac. It starts in the early nineteen thirties, with a young man who had given up law for film, working the crowds with his camera held low. You'll meet the trams, the café umbrellas and the city's poor that he kept returning to, and the studio at number seventeen. Listen with the traffic of the street in front of you.
