About

Inspired by the Story of Paul Marchand

Sarajevo, November 1992, seven months after the beginning of the Siege, war correspondent Paul Marchand plunges us into the bowels of a fratricidal conflict, under the impassive gaze of the international community.

Provocative, he writes on the front of his car MORITURI TE SALUTANT and DON’T WASTE YOUR BULLET I’M IMMORTAL on the back.

Between his journalistic objectivity, the feeling of helplessness and a certain sense of duty in face of horror, he will take sides, revealing the inscrutable angles of conflict.

“As a journalist, I reported with the mangled words of a fragmentary language that war is nothing more than a bit of noise over a lot of silence, a passing clash when silence becomes unbearable. The dream of a better world, even if the dream is obscene and turbulent.” – Paul Marchand
