Haunted by the very real ghosts of the past, Lost Country is a bruising, sensitive portrait of innocence lost in the shadow of Milošević’s reign. Go to Full Review Wendy Ide Screen International 05/22/2023
This impressive, nuanced picture works as a coming-of-age story, an examination of Balkan generational guilt and a mercurial portrait of a career politician. Go to Full Review Samantha Schuster Cinéfilo Serial Jul 18
3.5/5
It manages to balancedly blend the story of a country in conflict with a coming-of-age story about a boy who is forced to destroy the idyllic image he had of his mother in order to transcend and stand on his own feet.

A film as correct as it is short... a manufactured film that leaves one with the feeling of having seen it a thousand times. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Elena Lazic Cineuropa 05/24/2023
