At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

The title of this movie it too long. Trust me even longer seamed the time in watching it. When authors are confused in telling their story the result to the audience is mere torture. I wander why on earth Bulgarians are to interfere in Hague and the criminals of war? Imagination is not enough to tell what Serbs have felt. The plot of this film is so invented. So naive.Going along how someone so far from the nerve and emotions would be reflecting on the crimes of war. So very untrue. Whoever had financed this nonsense has poured resources in the desert. For sure there is a huge number of more realistic simply better Bulgarian stories.

This a long and boring story. Set in countries that do not want to remember this kind of past and such events . Especially when the actual topic now are the arriving fugitives from the Middle East .On the Balkans no one will recognize his character in the plot.I am asking as well as the other members of the audience will be questioning themselves to which country of the Balkans is to tell this story but to for the manipulations on behalf of the authors.The story taken our of the countries real background for the invented plot and its strategy. And all this mechanisms of the script are so obvious. The directors work so predictable and unfortunately rather week.So are the actors.
