Synopsis

This satirical look at war tells the bizarre tale of enemy soldiers, Tchiki and Nino, who find themselves stranded in no-man's land during the 1993 Bosnian conflict. As Tchiki and Nino try to figure a way out of the fog, a brave UN commander goes to help them, despite being ordered not to intervene. In a tense stand off between the many sides involved in the conflict, Nino and Tchiki desperately try to negotiate for their lives amidst the insanity of war.
