What happens

Back to Bosnia (Bosnian: Na put Bosne (kući)) is a documentary film that shows the uphill battle that refugees face when trying to return to Bosnia, or even just to reclaim their properties. It shows not only the problems that Bosniaks (Bosnian Muslims) face, but also the problems of Bosnian Serb refugees that moved to other parts of Bosnia. In addition it takes viewers to the sites of some of the worst atrocities in the second half of the 20th century and the investigations of these crimes. The film marked the debut of writer and director Sabina Vajrača. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
