A wall built two decades ago in a small primary school in the Kosovo village of Rubovce still separates the young Albanian and Serbian students.

In the Kosovo village of Rubovce, twenty kilometres south of the capital, Prishtina, a wall built two decades ago in a small primary school still separates young Albanian and Serbian students. A nineteen-year old filmmaker Nikola Polić and cinematographer Husamettin Luma use their probing camera to create an intense, moody and elegiac atmosphere.
