THE MAN WHO COULD NOT REMAIN SILENT
13′, Croatia, Bulgaria, France, Slovenia, 2024., d. Nebojša Slijepčević

 

February 27, 1993, Štrpci, Bosnia and Herzegovina. A passenger train from Belgrade to Bar is stopped by paramilitary forces in an ethnic cleansing operation. As they haul off innocent civilians, only one man out of 500 passengers dares to stand up to them. This is the true story of a man who could not remain silent. A masterful portrait of a historic act of heroism, poignantly celebrating that resounding act of bravery (Film Fest Report).
