Sarajevo 1914. The Eve of the Great War (Original title: Das Attentat – Sarajevo 1914) is an Austro-German television movie about the events of the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife Sophie in Sarajevo in 1914.

However, in his investigationse he comes to the conclusion that the case is not as obvious as the powerful people of the country would like it to be. With these views, however, he does not make friends among the military. The 1975 Czechoslovak-Yugoslav movie The Day That Shook the World tells a similarly sotry.
