Red rubber boots

Crvene gumene cizmice / Red rubber boots

„Red Rubber Boots“ deals with the search of a mother, Jasna P., for the mortal remains of her two children Amar (4 years) and Ajla (9 months). The children were kidnapped and killed by the Serbian army during the final days of the Bosnia war and allegedly buried in a mass grave. With the help of the state commission for the search of missing persons Jasna P. studied the available information, accompanied the search commission and visited all mass graves in the hope of finding the red rubber boots that her son was wearing when he was abducted and disappeared from her life, so that she could finally get some closure on her children’s fate.
