The Siege
Rémy Ourdan, Patrick Chauvel
2016 - 90 min - HD - Couleur - France, Bosnie-Herzégovine

Sarajevo lived through the longest siege in modern history. "The Siege" is a film about those who lived through it, about the human experience of the besieged. Through Sarajevo to beyond Sarajevo, it is the story of a surrounded city, of a battle and resistance.
It is also the universal story of civilization facing a terrible challenge to its existence, of a struggle for its survival. Sarajevo resisted and survived.
"The Siege" describes a vertiginous descent into war.
