A young man travels to Sarajevo with two friends when he becomes suspicious that he may be the reincarnation of a Bosnian soldier who died on the same day he was born.

Phil Hoad

Guardian

It is a largely frustrating exercise; sometimes history is best left in the backdrop.

Rated: 2/5

For Rapin, it's hopefully an ambitious calling card for future, more fully realized projects marrying high-concept and documentary sensibilities.

This film doesn't entirely persuade us that it knows where it's going or why.

More an essay on commemoration than an emotional reclamation of unfulfilled lives cut short, Rapin explores the difficulty in interpreting a present divorced from the distant ghosts of the past or the unforeseeable inevitability of the future.
