Review

If this film turns up in a cinema near you, go and see it. It's a Bosnian film and manages to combine really moving post-war traumas with comedy, irony, etc (rather like 'No Man's Land' did). Scenario is that Bill Clinton is coming to visit a Bosnian village, so the local mayor, police, fire brigade, etc have been told to get their act together - ie cover-up the corruption, prostitution, people-trafficking, and present a picture of ethnic harmony and reconstruction success. Makes you feel very cynical and pessimistic, but it is a very good film, great acting, great characters.
