Catalina is studying law in France. She’s Colombian and her request to extend her stay has just been turned down. Writing an interesting paper might help. Catalina goes to Sarajevo to search for a topic in the materials of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia. But when she gets there, she sees it’s not going to work out because she hasn’t been given permission to access the archive. Nada, a local interpreter, offers a helping hand, inviting Catalina to stay with her in Sarajevo. A friendship starts to develop.
"I spent a lot of years of my life as a refugee and then as an immigrant. When you are living this kind of life you meet this kind of people, and hear about these kinds of destinies. That was the first seed of the story. Later, I got this image in my head of a person coming out of an airport early in the morning all alone, and with that I began to figure out how to tell it. In translating this story to film I avoided any kind of political issues, mostly because I thought there are better kinds of media – such as newspapers and TV – to convey that kind of story. I was more interested in the inner drama of characters, and intimate moments of friendship, love and solitude in the lives of these three people. Of course you can also find some other ideas in the film like looking for roots, being an outcast, and being displaced."
