Contents/Summary
- Summary
- In 1982, at the age of 19, Mitko Panov left his native Yugoslavia soon after completing his year of compulsory service in the Yugoslav Federal Army - the "Army of Peace," as it was called at the time. Among the personal belongings he took with him when he moved to Poland to study film were photos from that halcyon year in the army. Panov's film career would later take him to New York where he witnessed the self-destruction of Yugoslavia over years of brutal, unrelenting ethnic warfare. Watching the horrifying media images, Panov couldn't help but wonder about the guys in his old army unit - the Serbs, Croats, Muslims, Kosovars - who had bonded like fraternity brothers 15 years back. If still alive, were these former buddies now bloodied and seething with hatred for one another?
