A deep family taboo is shattered when Ado Hasanović discovers the pages of his father's diary and the images recorded by the latter in the midst of the Bosnian war. By retracing his father's steps in the lead-up to the Srebrenica massacre, this monument to memory reveals, through the prism of one family, the wounds and undimmed pride of an entire people.
Ado Hasanović (born 1986 in Srebrenica, Bosnia and Herzegovina, formerly part of Yugoslavia) is a Bosnian-Italian filmmaker based in Rome. He is a Berlinale Talents Sarajevo alumnus and graduated in Directing from the Sarajevo Film Academy and from the Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia in Rome.
Besides from his activity as director, he has been working as Artistic Director for Passaggi d’Autore - Intrecci Mediterranei in Sant’Antioco (Sardinia) and the most recent Silver Frame Film Festival in Srebrenica, of which he is also the creator, and is the Head of Shorts of the Euro Balkan Film Festival in Rome and Omladinski Film Festival in Sarajevo.
