Finding Bosnia Special Screening
Join us for a special fundraising screening of Finding Bosnia, a documentary made by local filmmakers Ivana Horvat and Adrian Hopffgarten (aka LLAMAMAMA Productions). $10 suggested donation. After a successful international premier at the Sarajevo International Film Festival and a domestic premier at the St. Louis International Film Festival, the LLAMAMAMA duo are raising money for DVD authoring, duplication and distribution. All proceeds will go directly towards distribution.
Finding Bosnia presents an intimate and personal journey of a Bosnian war refugee raised in the United States who seeks to reclaim her Bosnian culture and identity. Ivana Horvat fled Sarajevo as a young child with her mother, leaving her family and city behind. Her parents took turns capturing home videos of their new life together in Oregon, and twenty years later, their footage becomes a lens with which Ivana watches her transition from being a young Bosnian child to an American woman.
In the film, Ivana returns to Bosnia to explore a life that could have been. She collects stories from various generations of Bosnians and other Bosnian refugees from the diaspora. Finding Bosnia explores the spirit of this region and sheds light on life after becoming a refugee. Through these stories and the Horvat family home videos, Ivana creates her own Bosnia."
