The young Slovene actress first lived in Berlin, at that time centre of European film industry, and her debut was in the role of a chambermaid in Was die Kinder ihren Eltern verschweigen. After 00Erotikon she performed in the first Czech sound film Gallows Toni in 1930. She declined an invitation from Hollywood and instead moved to Belgrade, got married and changed her name to Tamara Djordjević. Thereafter she starred in several more films, including the Yugoslav production War (1960), however she never managed to regain her earlier fame. After the war she also appeared in several Yugoslav theatre productions. Ita Rina died in Budva, and was buried in Belgrade.
Škratelj House
The architecture of Škratelj House and its courtyard (borjač), a monument of 17th-century Karst architecture, is well preserved. A bust of Ita Rina by student Maja Babič Košir was unveiled in the courtyard in July 2000 following a student sculpture competition organised by the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Ljubljana. The exhibition on the first floor presents the life of Ita Rina and the development of Slovene film during her day.
