Experimental film mixes confessions of guilt by accused people in the Yugoslavia Tribunal with childhood memories of a young woman.
In this experimental film, confessions of guilt by accused people in the Yugoslavia Tribunal are mixed with childhood memories of a twenty-something, who lived in besieged Sarajevo as a child - exactly twenty years ago. What does war do to a child, to a person? By asking the woman the same questions over and over again about her memories before and after the war, the transformation of a child in wartime becomes painfully clear.
