Le rendez-vous de Sarajevo (1997)

The dreams and ideals of the Sarajevo youth takes us back to 1992, when Mahir was 17 years old, Jelena 19. They now live in Quebec. For the duration of a film, Jelena returns to the scene of a conflict that has transformed her forever. Opposing the weapons of culture and hope against barbarism, the filmmaker called on the photographer Louis Jammes, who in 1993 plastered the walls of Sarajevo with immense serigraphs of children. Crossed by these faces of innocence, Le rendez-vous de Sarajevo convinces us that war will never triumph over truth, art and love.
