5/10
not the best bosnian movie
28 March 2021
This is somewhat good because it looks realistic and is focused on important historic event of my country and city. Footage, at least some, looks to be taken from real war, details look bare, and messages clear. There are few emotions such as empathy and shock. Seems too harsh to see such small kids close to such dangerous soldiers, criminals, weapons. But I did not like the quick talk, even from english side, then shallow emotions and footage, and negativity in form of immoral, hyperactivity, neglect, disorder, irresponsibility, recklessness. Too many dumb decisions by all sides. Seems just inappropriate to go back out of war zone then go back, or to wish to take your child in the middle of war (aggression). Also graphics are bit too dark, quick, shallow. Immoral are children looking almost naked in middle of war and showing their bodies in that Miss of the Year. Also immoral smiles of those English people in middle of war. There is no quality and depth like in better Bosnian movies. Some things are more easy to understand by Bosnian people both because of language and because of previous war experience. Even I as someone who lived in ex Ljubica Ivezic orphanage (today called differently) could not understand most stuff, and could not recognize relatives. Either because too unclear presentation or fake (different) characters. Bit magical to be able to in the middle of war, be on the sea or in different country where peace is. But still this is one lower quality movie, more like vlog.
