THE Sky above us

Netherlands, Serbia, Belgium, Greece, 2014, 97 Min

Three destinies collide when NATO bombs Belgrade in 1999, as two television technicians and an actress handle the ever-present threat of air strikes in very different ways.

Heretic Outreach

During the day NATO pamphlets rain down from the sky, whilst at night the western alliance bombs Belgrade. Well-known actress Ana is to serve as a human shield in the service of Serbian propaganda, technician Sloba maintains his stoic stance whilst his younger colleague Bojan remains carefree as ever. An authentic directional debut – filmed in Serbo-Sroatian – full of psychological nuance from Dutch director Marinus Groothof. JT
