As If I Am Not There
2010
Synopsis
As If I Am Not There relates one woman’s experience of the horrors that took place at the beginning of the Bosnian War, based on the book by Slavenka Drakulic. Disturbing and powerful, the film is an important testament to the survivors of the atrocities in the former Yugoslavia.
Editorial
As If I Am Not There is a violent but essential look at the mass rape committed against women during the Balkan conflict, and the brutal means of survival such women might have had to choose. Adapted from a novel based on victims’ testimonies, its realism is both crushing and compelling all at once.
