Where do the escape routes from the Yugoslav war in 1992 and the paths of a highway construction plan from 2020 intersect? Amel Bešlagić traces the trajectories of these entangled routes in his hometown Kozarac, Bosnia and Hercegovina. In two short films he maps and mirrors both the visible and invisible trails of radical topographical and social dislocation in the small town. These regional transformations – driven by war, migration, foreign investments, infrastructural policy, and land politics – reflect the condition of many former Yugoslav territories. Event in English.
