Even so early she was a well-groomed, made-up, a real lady. Everyone. treated her with respect. She was the mother of the Smogs. Modest, warm, kind, dear, calm. She chose a quiet life after she no longer filmed, she withdrew and, unfortunately, I never saw her again, "she told Slobodna, Dalmatia Slavica Knezevic who played Sonja in the series.
