NO MAN’S LAND

by Danis Tanovic (Nicija zemlja, Bosnia, 2001, 1h38)

starring Branko Djuric, Rene Bitorajac, Filip Sovagovic, Katrin Cartlidge

In 1993, during the Bosnian War, Ciki and Nino, two enemy soldiers, one Bosnian and the other Serbian, find themselves stranded in a trench between the two front lines. As a stalemate ensues, they call on the United Nations Protection Force for help, but it cannot intervene. Eventually the media takes an interest, turning the affair into an international media show.
