The Year After Dayton - Part 2

The Year After Dayton

Part 2 – Autumn, Winter

An observation of the first year of peace after the civil war in Bosnia, following people both in the Bosnian-Croatian Federation and in the Serbian Republic. Portraits of people against the background of a war that is not really through yet; an examination of possible – and, in many cases, no longer possible – co-existence; of the big and small changes which happened that year. Geyrhalter does not attempt to give political explanations for the cause and course of the war, but rather to document a current state of affairs. Long, uncommented interview segments and sequence shots give viewers time to get closer to the people and form their own opinions.

"The tender respect with which Geyrhalter approaches the trauma is simple and moving." CLAUS PHILIPP
