"Pretty Village, Pretty Flame"
1996
Directed by Srdjian Dragojevic

Based on an incident that happened in the first winter of the war in Bosnia in 1992, Srdjan Dragojevic's provocative and disturbing movie "unleashes a powerful assault on the insanity of the war" (New York Times). Two young boys, Halil, a Muslim, and Milan, a Serb, watch the inauguration of the new Brotherhood and Unity Tunnel in their neighborhood in 1980. Twelve years later, Halil and Milan are now on opposing sides, and Milan lies badly injured alongside wounded Serbs and Muslims in the same hospital as he recalls the events that brought him there. Serbo-Croatian with English subtitles. 125 minutes.
