Bosnia Country Tim Mccarthy

A gritty love story entangled in the vicious 1990s Balkans conflict, "Bosnia Country" follows two American journalists, Monk and Riley, as they cover an international peace convoy struggling to reach Sarajevo. Through the witness of its mere presence, the idealistic convoy, with its thousands of brave but quixotic souls from many nations, clashes with an ethnic and religious conflict more savage than most, much as Riley and Monk clash with each other. In a pensive moment, Monk muses that if he were a musician he "would write a damned old country love song, two-and-a-half minutes of heartache that would crack a million hearts across the land and somehow ease the burden of his own. Bosnia country."
