The Sky Above Us is a haunting snapshot of Belgrade during the NATO bombings in '99, where life seems to carry on despite the chaos looming overhead. The film captures this surreal juxtaposition beautifully, with characters like Ana and Slo navigating their daily lives filled with an undercurrent of dread. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the tension to hang in the air like a thick fog. You feel the weight of each moment, every conversation, as people cling to a facade of normalcy. The performances are raw and gripping, drawing you into their world. It's a unique blend of drama and war, exploring themes of fear, resilience, and the human condition amidst turmoil. The atmosphere is intense, the practical effects subtly enhance the realness without overshadowing the story.
