Early Life and Education

Sergej Trifunović was born in Mostar, which was part of SFR Yugoslavia at the time. His father, Tomislav, was an actor, and his mother, Slobodanka, was a lawyer. Sergej has a younger brother named Branislav, who is also an actor.

Because his father was an actor, Sergej's family moved often. He lived in different cities like Mostar, Užice, Kruševac, and Belgrade. In 1990, he began studying at the Belgrade Faculty of Drama Arts. Many of his classmates also became well-known actors.

Sergej Trifunović has often taken part in protests. These protests were against governments he felt were too strict. He supported Saša Janković during the 2017 presidential election.

Reports have shown that Sergej and his charity faced unfair attacks. Some media and politicians spread false information about them. This started around 2018.

On January 26, 2019, Sergej became the second president of the Movement of Free Citizens. After many protests about political issues, he asked for help from the European Parliament. He wanted them to help different political groups talk about fair elections.

The European Parliament helped arrange discussions. However, by December 2019, they said that conditions for fair elections were still not met. In January 2020, his party first decided not to take part in the elections. Later, they changed their minds and participated. They did not win enough votes to enter the National Assembly.

On July 8, 2020, Sergej was involved in an incident at a protest against the government. He claimed he was attacked by people working for the government.
