Description
Summary:Duration: 01:38:00 Two years after the end of the war, the small Bosnian town of Tesanj is slowly rebuilding itself. The war has left serious scars on the life of the people and the city. The social cohesion is fragile and below the peaceful surface, there is another reality of national hatred and division along ethnic lines accompanied by flourishing crime and prostitution. The announcement that the American president Bill Clinton might pay a visit and become an honorary citizen of Tesanj changes everything. The whole town goes completely crazy as, all of a sudden, in just seven days, under the surveillance of international observers and members of peace keeping missions, Tesanj and its citizens must whip together an image of democracy.
