Balkan Triangle follows three stories of people who were vital in resisting nationalism before, during and after the Yugoslavian Wars of the 1990s. The film is set in Serbia, Bosnia and Kosovo. It explores how these men have used media to stand up against Milosevic and try to build bridges between the different societal groups. They’ve made huge sacrifices to uphold the freedom of speech, freedom of press and the rights of journalists, sometimes even putting their own lives in danger. The film’s narrative unfolds through a series of storylines, set against historical events throughout the Balkan Wars. The main characters talk about their personal experiences, in many cases on the actual spot where it all happened, mixed with archive footage of the events from the 1990s. All of them share their message as to what should be done in order to prevent it all from happening again in the future.
