Serbia continues to reverberate with outrage and sympathy for young women who have come forward this month alleging they were raped as students by a veteran director at his private drama school, setting off an avalanche of #MeToo accounts that challenge Serbian society to fix a broken system.
The torrent came after a rising star of international cinema publicly accused the storied mentor and founder of the Stvar Srca acting studio, Miroslav Mika Aleksic, of repeatedly raping her beginning nine years ago, when she was 17.
For decades, the 68-year-old Aleksic has worked and hobnobbed with many of Serbia s biggest celebrities.
