This film is a must see! I am from Croatia and my father fought the war so I was pretty much familiar with the events depicted in the film but nevertheless I had goosbumps during couple of scenes and it definitely educated me on some things I didn't know like the fact that the UN was just useless. I think war has to be one of the most heartbreaking things to happen to a person and this film depicted it perfectly. The acting is amazing and just the overall feeling is perfectly translated. I recommend this film to anyone, escpecially those who are not familiar with the events surrounding it.

I went into the cinema without preparation. I hadn't seen the trailer, I didn't know anything about the real story, I just sat down and watched it. Damn, I was struck by it.

The plot is real. That makes it even more devastating. They told the story in such a brilliant way that I had a little bit of hope every time Aida had a bit of hope. I would lose that, and regain that. Of course in the end I lost it for good. Another thing they did really well is the helplessness of the Dutch soldiers. I really felt like they couldn't do anything, and that made the feeling of hope and sadness and anger and all that, so much more real.

The acting was terrific. I hadn't heard of any of the actors involved, and I actually kind fo like that. It makes it way easier to slide into the story, seeming as you don't associate the people you see with anything other than their role.

I saw this film, I was devastated about the whole situation that was portrayed, and than like most people probably it went out of my head and I didn't think about it anymore, after 4 days or so. But then, 1.5 week after seeing it, a friend posted about not forgetting about this slaughter and that most people don't know about it and everything, and BAM, the whole film popped back in my head and I thought about it again. I shared it with my friend (who is part Bosnian) and it felt like a proper ending to my connection to this film, and I'll never forget about this tragedy again.

... because you never learn! The despicable, diabolical and disgusting events from Srebrenica, replayed many times before, currently playing out in several countries now, and quite probably for the foreseeable future while we continue to turn a blind eye, ignore, disengage or perhaps don't care. Jasna Djuricic as Aida, immense!
