Welcome to Sarajevo
To get the story, they’ll risk everything.
Directed by Michael Winterbottom
Produced by Miramax, Dragon Pictures
A war-zone drama that balances journalistic detachment with personal moral awakening, centered on the human cost of conflict and one man's decision to act.
Follow a group of international journalists into the heart of the once cosmopolitan city of Sarajevo—now a danger zone of sniper and mortar attacks where residents still live. While reporting on an American aid worker who’s trying to get children out of the country, a British correspondent decides to take an orphaned girl home to London.
