Rane (1998)

A clever pair of teenage criminals, by turns brilliantly entrepreneurial and murderously callous, flippantly rise to destructive success in this stunning film set in war-torn Bosnia. Comical and cruel, Pinki (Dusan Pekic) and Kraut (Dragan Bjelogrlic) master the use of violence to achieve the power and fame they crave. In a world in which humanity and morality seem to have vanished, the boys grow quickly and willingly take their mentor's places, yet perversely put childish antics and a desire to prove their toughness ahead of survival. Based on actual events, this is a fast paced portrait of a wounded country and its people not to be missed.
