Framing Home

Twenty years after the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, filmmaker Ivana Barišić engages in a conversation with her contemporaries about the destruction of their homeland and the aftermath of this war. Following second-generation Bosnian-Dutch immigrants, this film gives an insight into the ways this generation deals with the loss and reconstruction of home and invites us to examine the long-lasting legacies of migration.
