Heart wrenching documentary, made with input from both Croatia and Serbia. Chronicles the fall into anarchy, then war, followed by the merciless siege, of this Yugoslavian city touted as a triumph of multiculturalism before the war. Even handed, as far as assigning blame for the battle and the (moderate) atrocities. All sides have their say. People suffer from all ethnic groups because of politicians far from the scene and from hate-filled bigots of other ethnicities. The ending is understated, but appalling; worth two tissues for anyone.
