Saraj'vo

2017 · 57 min · Documentary

SARAJ’VO describes the real size of the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina, its seductive spirit and scope of the microcosm that it borders. Mustafa Mustafić, the legendary cameraman, filmed the dedication to the city where he spent his life. Regardless of the long and extremely prolific career as a film and television cameramen, Mustafa Mustafić, Pujdo as his colleagues affectionately call him, feels that there are many untold stories of Sarajevo, rituals and undiscovered perspectives on our common and unusual days. THIS IS THE CITY sums up everything about this very unusual environment, together with its inhabitants, guests and tourists.
