De verloren stad

Whereas most filmmakers go to places where it is all happening, documentary director Britta Hosman went to a place where nothing happens. For one year, she captured life in the Bosnian town of Bosanska Grahavo, which was forgotten during the reconstruction and where only the supermarket and ten pubs are still standing. When did the war end for them, the filmmaker wonders. Did it ever end? And which people stayed put? And why? The many conversations Hosman had with the inhabitants were converted to a narrative voice-over that wryly describes how everybody wakes up every day, gets dressed and proceeds to wait for nothing at all.
