''Rane'' (The Wounds in English) is a great movie by the best film director in Serbia, Srdjan Dragojevic. The plot is set in Belgrade, Serbia during the chaotic wars in the 90s and shows a path of an adolescent who grows in those times of craziness. Crime, dysfunctional moral values, hate and the need to be in charge are on the rise. It is also an excellent timetable of the events, starting from the Croatian War of Independence, Bosnian War and the Student strikes in Serbia against Milosevic's repressive regime. The talent of Srdjan Dragojevic is how he mocks the prejudices of certain people groups and certainly his courage to makes films that are so liberal in the environment that was mostly hyper-nationalistic and traditional. Highly recommend.
