Description

Description

Set during the Balkan War of the 1990’s and based on true events the film tells the story of Samira, a young woman from Sarajevo, whose life is shattered the day a young soldier walks into her apartment and tells her to pack her things. Rounded up with the other women from the village and imprisoned in a warehouse in a remote region of Bosnia, she quickly learns the rules of camp life. However, the day she is picked out to ‘entertain’ the soldiers, the real nightmare begins. In a final act of courage or madness, Samira decides to make one last stand: to dare herself. And this simple act saves her life.
