NO MAN'S LAND (2002)

DANIS TANOVIC

Plot

Three men are trapped in between their lines, two Bosnian and one Serb, while the beaurocracy of the UN peacekeeping force and the world's media rages around them. Tanovic's 'No Man's Land' is a masterfully dark satire on the absurdity of war, a film that manages to be genuinely funny and painfully sad while also allowing us an insight into the basic humanity but also idiocy and ingrained bigotry of those who hold the weapons.
