“On the Verge” is an essayistic portrait of Sarajevo. It shows personal reflections of the profound effect the city has on the filmmaker, while undergoing several changes in early 2014.
From the first nationwide demonstrations since the founding of the Federation of BiH until the biggest floods in a century- images intertwined with the daily life of Sarajevan´s- trying to find grip between its extremes.
