Film Screening, Discussion and Book Signing with Director

Bill Carter

 Hit theme song and film produced by Bono of U2, Miss Sarajevo is a surreal and startling portrait of Sarajevo, the capital city of Bosnia, during the height of the city's siege. Instead of following the scenes of carnage that the main media so often squeezes into thirty second dramatic sound bites, Carter's camera follows the alternative scene of artists, young people and the people determined to live as normal a life as they could under the most difficult and dangerous conditions.
