The Constitution (Croatian: Ustav Republike Hrvatske, lit.'The Constitution of the Republic of Croatia') is a 2016 Croatian drama film directed by Rajko Grlić, starring Nebojša Glogovac, Ksenija Marinković, Dejan Aćimović, and Božidar Smiljanić. The script was written by Ante Tomić and Grlić.[2] It premiered on August 4, 2016 at the Montreal Film Festival.

The film follows four very different people who live in the same building but avoid each other because of differences in how they live their lives, what they believe in, and where they come from. They would probably never exchange a word, but misfortune pushes them towards each other. Their lives entangle in ways that profoundly challenge deep-held beliefs and prejudices surrounding material status, sexual orientation, nationality and religion.[2]
