Jakov Sedlar is a Croatian film director and producer. A former cultural attaché during the 1990s in the Franjo Tudjman government, his documentaries promote Croatian nationalist views, casting him as a far-right propagandist. His 2016 documentary Jasenovac – The Truth sparked controversy and condemnation for downplaying and denying the crimes committed at the Jasenovac concentration camp by the Ustaše during World War II, instead focusing on crimes supposedly committed against Croats by communist partisans at the camp following the war, while using misinformation and forgeries to present its case, in addition to naming former and current Croatian officials, intellectuals, historians and journalists it dubs as "Yugoslav nationalists concealing the truth".
