ECHOES FROM BORDERLAND shows the harrowing reality of refugees in Bosnia-Herzegovina, still far from an EU border. Among them is 15-year-old Nahid from Afghanistan, who is stranded here after a hardship-filled escape. She meets people like Ferida and Elvir and gets to know a human side in the midst of misery. While Nahid struggles with everyday challenges, Ferida's resurgent past confronts her with the deep scars of the place. The film reveals how war and hope are inextricably linked, even across borders and eras.
