The UPC Films and Novelties committee and the InterCulture committee will be showing In the Land of Blood and Honey on Thursday, June 21, 2012 at 7:00 PM in the HUC Alumni Auditorium.  There will also be FREE pizza and drinks!

In the Land of Blood and Honey is set against the backdrop of the Bosnian War that tore the Balkan region apart in the 1990s.  It tells the story of Danijel and Ajla, two people from different sides of a brutal ethnic conflict.  Danijel, a soldier fighting for the Serbs, and Ajla, a Bosnian held captive in the camp he oversees, knew each other before the war, and could have found love with each other.  But as the armed conflict takes hold of their lives, their relationship grows darker, their motives and connection to one another ambiguous, their allegiances uncertain.  The film portrays the incredible emotional, moral and physical toll that the war exerts both on individuals and people as a whole, and the terrible consequences that stem from the lack of political will to intervene in a society stricken with conflict.  In the Land of Blood and Honey was written and directed by Angelina Jolie.
