Crazy Bosnian Guy is a tourist guide walking us through the streets of his town, Mostar, in the south of Bosnia Herzegovina. We get stuck into memories. In the Nineties Crazy Bosnian Guy was twenty years old: the Balkan war is vivid in his mind. We instead are already beginning to forget recent history. Is remembering still meaningful today?
"I am glad that my son knows nothing about the war. I don’t explain it to him. Not today. But I explain it to everyone who pays me. You, tourist. My pain is my money. You want the war, I sell you the war."
