Synopsis: | Beneath the rubble of lies somewhere there's the truth. But is it good enough to make the newspaper headlines? With a married couple firing shots at each other outside the door, Milos and Shota hide in the old bar along with Marko. Daring only to venture outside when a ceasefire is called for mealtimes, they are trapped. Perhaps a Western journalist could be their salvation. If only people knew the real story maybe it would make a difference. But can an outside onlooker really understand what is happening until they have lived through it themselves? | |||||
