About This Movie

B4 is a raw documentary that delves deep into memory, trauma, and the long shadows cast by conflict. It centers around Alen, a Bosnian director grappling with his past as he returns to pay tribute to his parents, lost in a bombing that not only shattered lives but altered his own. The atmosphere is heavy, layered with both personal and collective grief. The pacing feels contemplative, allowing moments of silence and reflection to breathe, which amplifies the emotional weight. The film's distinctiveness lies in its intimate approach; it’s not just a recounting of events but a personal journey. The performances, albeit understated, are deeply affecting, drawing you into Alen's world of remembrance and loss.
