Synopsis
An extraordinary debut film by a young filmmaker from Spain, Tunnel’s End is a documentary that investigates the key factors which led Bosnia-Herzegovina first to war in the 1990s and subsequently into the social and political paralysis the country is suffering today. The film steers clear from making the case for one side or the other; instead director Lleó presents a comprehensive and complex view of contemporary Bosnia-Herzegovina through extensive interviews with politicians, human rights activists, journalists, artists, and war survivors from all ethnic groups. The result is stunning: through many voices the film draws a map of the war and its aftermath as seen from all angles.
