A convincing beggar
How the famous actor convincingly "took off" the hard accent of the Dalmatian Zagora.
Speaking about the filming of the series "Beggars and Sons", Fabijan Šovagović told how he best learned the hard speech of the Imotski Krajina from Stjepan Puljić, a native of Imoćina, who, as a boy, played the character of Kikaš's grandson Matan.
Fabijan used to remember how he would always listen attentively to Stjepan to hear how each word was pronounced and then - imitate him.
Thus, in a short time, Fabijan managed to faithfully shape and act out the character of the old man Kikaš, a beggar who traditionally continued the begging profession of his family by visiting villages and performing scams. Fabijan's role as Kikaš is an anthology role in the series, which is considered one of the best television productions from this region.
