Brief synopsis
When is a war over? The documentary film “Souvenirs of War” offers an essayistic tour to Bosnia, more than two decades after the last armed conflict in Europe, when many sites of sorrow have become tourist attractions. A journey along the fine line between dark travel and empathetic memory, where some enjoy playing combat games on authentic battlefields, while others still struggle to make their traumatic legacy become an opportunity.
