Alija, a miner, is sent to dig out a mine that had been walled up at the end of the Second World War. His primary task is to write a report at the earliest opportunity to state that the mine is empty. He soon finds evidence to the contrary, and despite the risks continues to dig, discovering a grim secret within: a mass grave.  After brief publicity of the disturbing finding, the news is suddenly silenced from public conversation. Alija persists, insisting that the bodies be identified and formally buried, but his actions present a disturbance the authorities must bury.

Hanna Slak’s film is based on the life of Zasavje miner Mehmedalija Alić and his autobiography ‘Nobody’ (Nihče).

Walter Salles

Rio de Janeiro, early 1970s. The Paiva family live a full and happy life in a house by the beach. One day, however, everything is turned upside-down when the military junta abducts the father. Director Walter Salles (Central Station, The Motorcycle Diaries) based his heartbreaking film on memoirs written by the son of the seven-member family. »An engrossing, affecting tribute to a formidable woman and her family.« – Screen Daily. »A gripping, profoundly touching film with a deep well of pathos. It’s one of Salles’ best.« – The Hollywood Reporter. Oscar for Best International Feature Film.
