Three young brothers have grown up in the shadow of their father, a strict Islamist preacher, but when he is sentenced to two years in prison, the brothers are suddenly left alone, and begin to question their father's teaching.

Jabir, Usama and Useir are three young brothers living in the Bosnian countryside. They have grown up in the shadow of their father, a strict Islamist preacher, but when he is sentenced to two years in prison, the brothers are suddenly left alone, and begin to question their father’s teaching and explore their newly acquired freedom. This beautifully-rendered festival favourite is an exploration of youth, manhood and search for identity. Don’t miss the parallel programme: Divas.
