Fuse (Gori Vatra) is a tale of a family collapsing and of post-war reality. Tale of the miracle of people who are ready to stand everything, who remain hopeful and who decide to struggle to live better. Tesanj: a small picturesque Bosnian town.
On the surface – good, open people, humble and decent lives, a market place, tradition and neighbourhood. Under the surface – ethnic intolerance, crime, prostitution and total corruption.
