Zona Zamfirova (Зона Замфирова) is a 1906 book by Serbian author Stevan Sremac, as well as a 2002 comedy-drama film based on the book and directed by Zdravko Šotra.
Labeled the most popular Serbian film of all times, Zona Zamfirova is set in the eastern Serbian town of Niš in the 19th century. The plot follows the story of Zona Zamfirova (Katarina Radivojević), a local rich man's daughter, and the vicissitudes of her affair with Mane (Vojin Ćetković), an ordinary goldsmith. As it was undesirable for the daughter of a rich man to marry a craftsman, the two are at first divided, with the possibility of Zona marrying the son of other rich people, Manulać. Everything is, however, changed as Mane organizes a successful conspiracy to keep Zona for himself.
The film is filled with Serbian music throughout. Interestingly, the local Torlakian vernacular of Niš is used instead of standard Serbian, making the film to a certain extent incomprehensible for Serbians without subtitles.
