Quo Vadis, Aida? is a gripping and poignant film that takes us back to the heart of the Srebrenica massacre of 1995. Directed by Jasmila Žbanić, the film tells the story of Aida (Jasna Đuričić), a UN translator who finds herself in a dilemma as the Serbian army closes in on her town. Aida’s job gives her unique access to the unfolding events, but it also puts her in an incredibly precarious position as she tries to also save her family amidst the chaos.

Humanity within the tragedy. Žbanić skillfully avoids sensationalizing the violence, instead opting to highlight the emotional and psychological impacts of the events. The film is a sharp critique of the failed foreign policies and the inaction of the UN, shedding light on the broader evils of institutional failure and international indifference. Through Aida’s eyes, we see the devastating loss and impact on families and society’s psyche.

A powerful commentary on the cost of political and military decisions. The film has received wide acclaim for its storytelling, direction, and performances, earning several awards and nominations, including a nomination for Best International Feature Film at the Oscars in 2021.
