Abdulah Sidran (2 October 1944 – 23 March 2024), often referred to by his hypocoristic nickname Avdo, was a Bosnian poet and screenwriter.[1][2] He is considered to be one of the most influential writers in both Bosnia and Herzegovina and the former Yugoslavia.[3]

(1981) and the Academy Award nominated When Father Was Away on Business (1985).[4] He was a member of the Academy of Sciences and Arts of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
