Review of Grbavica

Grbavica (2006)
6/10
Bosnia.
14 March 2020
A heartfelt look at the real, often invisible and neglected consequences of war in lives of every day people, when all the macho posturing and political spectacle is over - broken lives, scarred bodies and "impure" histories tearing people apart not only in relation to each other but also within themselves. A subtly brutal and slow-burning, yet at the same time gently powerful film, reminding us how futile, shameful, stupid, and ultimately violent the imposition of "universal" historical memory is to people who just did not have a choice.
