This short poetic film was a metaphorical expression of the 1990s Balkan conflict that had profoundly affected Albanian-German artist Anri Sala. The film presented two intertwining stories, one about a man who lives alone among some two thousand pet fish and another about a young former UN soldier who served as a peacekeeper in Bosnia.
