Croatian term or phrase: Dalmatinska Zagora
Imate li ideju kako prevesti "Dalmatinska Zagora" na engleski u sadržaju igranog filma ? Istovremeno, namjera nam je zadržati pojam Zagore kao ruralnog kraja, prostora u kojem se odvija priča svojevrsnog vlaškog vesterna.

English translation:Dalmatian hinterland*
Explanation:
I would leave "Zagora" as a term in the source text and define it with an asterisk * explaining it as the hinterland as distinct from the coast and "primorje".

(The film you mention isn't Lisice by any chance is it?!)
