BELVEDERE – Bosnia & Herzegovina:
Ruveyda is like most residents of the Belvedere refugee camp: a widow yearning to forget the tragedy of war, fifteen years after the ethnic cleansing of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Yet, her hope is one day tested when her nephew is selected to participate in a reality show in a former enemy enclave. (Bosnian w. English subs)

FUSE (Gori Vatra) – Bosnia & Herzegovina:
After the civil war has officially ended, conflict persists between Serbs and Muslims in a small rural village in Bosnia. Taking a humurous take on the tragic legacy of post-war Bosnia, Pjer Zalica paints an unflinchingly honest and darkly funny depiction of a poor, corrupt community struggling to hide its unlawful activities. (Bosian/Serbo-Croatian w. English subs)

ALL FOR FREE (Sve Džaba) – Croatia:
After the death of his friends, Goran devises an unconventional plan to cope with his loss: he will sell his house, buy a mobile tavern, and travel from town to town, giving away free drinks to everyone he meets. This darkly humorous tale doubles as a metaphor for Bosnia’s gradual rediscovery of share humanity lost during the war. (Bosnian-Croatian w. English subs)

FINE DEAD GIRLS (Fine Mertve Djevojke) – Croatia:
A report of a kidnapped child triggers an investigation that uncovers nightmarish conditions in a claustrophobic apartment building in Zagreb. When residents learn the private truths about one another, the pervasive climate of mistrust explodes into violence, echoing Croatia’s recent past. (Croatian w. English subs)
