KAMERNI TEATAR 55, SARAJEVO

The play “Peaceful Bosnia” depicts the rebellion of two small Bosnian-Herzegovinian families towards a criminal organisation. Exhausted by poverty and hardened in the belief that no one from the outside will help them, they decide to use their social invisibility to engage in the lucrative drug trade. With Rizo, who is not completely washed up as their leader, pensioners Šapka and Aleksandra as workers, and the delusional Boki as their cover for their small business, the four of them are ready to do whatever it takes to escape poverty once and for all.

In other words, the play “Mirna Bosna” reveals what is hidden behind the phrase “the toughest Bosnia” these days, directly and without any comparisons or poetic embellishments. The abundance of comedy delivered may not be funny in the cheerful way that our people like to laugh, whether they get the joke or not, but this time, fans of salty jokes and laughter through tears will definitely enjoy it.
