In spring 1999, NATO allies conducted a bombing campaign against Yugoslavia as part of the Kosovo War. The action was supposed to destroy Yugoslav military installations and was seen as a humanitarian operation. But the bombings were aimed around urban areas and civilians were killed as well. This documentary focuses on the everyday people -- regardless of their religious or political differences -- who suffered on the ground and became witnesses to the overwhelming tragedy around them.
The lives of a Serb family are torn apart by the pressures of the not-too-distant war with the Croats. The film addresses the fundamental question "Can love survive between political enemies?"
Merab, Nino, Levan and Ludmila talk about their town, Tbilissi, the capital of Georgia, in a film both tragic and beautiful.
