This is one of the only and best documentaries about Yugoslavia, its breakup, and the factors/reasons underpinning all of this that exists to this day.
Perhaps, as some have criticized, the documentary could have been better at identifying the talking heads, giving a more multifaceted view, etc.
However, these small points aside this documentary should be seen by anyone and everyone interested in the past and current situation in the former Yugoslavia and its individual parts, Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, and Bosnia among others. Other reviewers have already ably set out what the film does much better and more comprehensively then I have but in the end my review is simply up here in order to add another voice of rationality and fairness to the cacophony of irrational ideologues that often make up any discussion around this topic.
I urge anyone who is sincerely interested in the realities of the Balkans to view this film.
