With her debut feature, and based in The Netherlands, Bosnian filmmaker Ena Sendijarević proves herself already an artist of consummate style and tone. The lethargy of Sendijarević’s characters allows ample time to savor her colorful, eye-catching compositions. Full of peculiar angles and sun-drenched vibrancy, the liveliness of the framing contrasts the dour aimlessness of three teenagers on an odyssey through modern Bosnia. Irrepressible beauty and sensuality play strange bedfellows to the deadpan ennui that inflicts these characters’ emotional lives, hampered as they are by grim prospects in a country short on opportunity. Young actress Sara Luna Zorić leads the cast with a presence so captivating audiences are sure to follow her wherever this sardonic road movie takes them. ~Travis Weedon
