Documentary, Back to Bosnia
Interview with director/producer, Sabina Vajraca & producer/editor, Ali Hanson (29 min / 29 MB)
Listen to the interview as they discuss the making of this documentary that has already played in five film festivals. PODCAST: http://indieville.net/podcasts/backtobosnia.mp3
Back to Bosnia is a documentary film about a family who returns to post-war Bosnia, in order to reclaim their stolen property. While there, the family is confronted with the destruction of their city and forced to examine the community they left behind. They stumble upon an exhumation, visit the sites of war crimes, and seek out the remnants of a city they once called their own.
What was formerly the booming multi-ethnic city of Banja Luka is now a run-down, depressed shadow of its former self. Poverty is rampant, war criminals rule, new generations are ignorant of the past, and the symbols of war and hatred are everywhere. The Dayton Peace Agreement was signed but there is no peace. There is only tension caused by fear, hatred, anger, and the utter confusion over who is to blame.
The story follows Sabina Vajraca as she probes into the history of the war and her own family’s involvement. Accompanied by a small film crew, she embarks on a path of discovery, guided by the stories of her parents and those they meet along the way.
