With the Balkans war as setting this film begins very strong, mostly on the emotional side. In fact the initial scenes describing the terror of war crimes against unprotected and desperate people (mostly women and children) are brutal and tough (but very well done!). However, it's just the context to what is in fact a revenge film and a cat-mouse game. And if here the sides seem to be very disparate (strong military men against one single mute girl
) you know you should never despise your adversary and his weapons for little and inoffensive they might seem
It's a nice film that shows us the cruelty and sadism of wartimes! I score it 7/10.
