The Load
Directed by Ognjen Glavonić
Produced by Kinorama, Non-Aligned Films
A morally fraught, slow-burn drama about a truck driver complicit in wartime atrocity, navigating both literal and psychological danger across a bombed landscape.
Vlada works as a truck driver during the NATO bombing of Serbia in 1999. Tasked with transporting a mysterious load from Kosovo to Belgrade, he drives through unfamiliar territory, trying to make his way in a country scarred by the war. He knows that once the job is over, he will need to return home and face the consequences of his actions.
