About This Movie

My Friends is a raw and intimate documentary that captures the lives of four childhood friends from Sarajevo, now scattered around the globe. Directed by Lidija Zelovic-Goekjian, it offers a reflective look at how each has navigated the aftermath of war and shaped their new identities. The film’s pacing is contemplative, allowing each story to unfold naturally, with a tone that oscillates between nostalgia and resilience. What stands out is the way it blends personal narratives with the broader themes of survival and displacement, making it feel very genuine. The practical effects are minimal, relying instead on the authenticity of the interviews and the emotional weight carried by the performers. This is a piece that invites viewers to ponder the long-lasting impacts of conflict on friendships and memories.
