Tišina Mujo
It’s training time at the Zetra stadium in Sarajevo. 10-year-old Mujo misses his penalty kick. The ball flies over the goal and disappears among the tombstones of the graveyard that replaced the sports grounds during the war. “Go search among the Christians!” some of his playmates yell. “Seek among the Muslims!” others snicker. Searching for the ball, Mujo wanders in the kingdom of the dead... (Bande à part films)
"Quiet Mujo" is part of the compilation film "The Bridges of Sarajevo" composed of 13 short films by different European film makers. Link: Film website
Ten-year old Mujo misplays a penalty kick, the ball lands on the neighbouring cemetery where he meets a woman with whom he strikes up a conversation about the people both have lost in their lives. The director manages with astonishing ease to link the past and present of contemporary Sarajevo, religions and generations with their contradictions.
