Overview

A survivor of the Bosnian war who channeled her experiences into a career in international law and humanitarian work, Hana decides to return to Sarajevo on a deeply personal and gripping quest—the search for the son she gave up for adoption amidst the chaos and brutality of a disintegrating nation.
Haunted by fragmented memories, Hana pieces together testimony from fellow survivors, driven by the possibility that her child may still be alive. Can he be remembered? Can he be found? And what would it mean to love him? To be loved by him?
