**Intro** Quo Vadis Aida, released in 2020, is more than a film. It tells us a story, and it reminds us of our political organisation’s failures and invites us to wake up, so that those tragic events will never happen again. The Srebrenica genocide happened in 1995 and, although it’s very recent, too many people ignore this tragedy. **Real events inspired the movie**, although some characters are fictional. The whole cast delivered a good product which got an Oscar nominee as “Best International Feature Film” and many others awards. **Movie’s analysis at SpotaMovie.com** - **The Story** In July 1995, the Serbian’s soldiers were ready to invade Bosnia and the city of Srebrenica. U.N. officers and the blue helmets had the duty to protect the population and prevent the invasion. Aida is an interpreter working for the U.N., helping during the negotiation between the Bosnians and the blue helmets. While the time quickly passes, colonel Karremans doesn’t receive any updates or support from the U.N., NATO, or the Dutch government. The situation is dangerous. Thousands of people gathered near the U.N. compound seeking help. But they are too many, the blue helmets struggle to keep control, and general Mladic is ready to enter the city.

Set five years on from the school days of director Stevan Filipovic's previous film Next to Me, a state of emergency exists and politicians are accused of capitalising on public anxiety around Covid-19, which makes the shocking situation that reunites the characters significantly more extreme. The story centres on Ksenija (newcomer Mina Nikolic), a driven young woman striving to move from tabloid hack to a career journalist in a world of click-bait headlines and showbiz scandals cooked up to feed the masses. Ksenija's personal and professional journey is hampered when Vera tests positive for Coronavirus and Ksenija must question how far she will bend to survive in a climate where political pressure is increasingly overt and can be said to capitalise on fear during the pandemic.
