"The film is specific to the Bosnian War, but it's also universal," Jolie, 35, said in a statement. "I wanted to tell a story of how human relationships and behavior are deeply affected by living in side a war."
Graham King, who financed the project with his GK Films partner Tim Headington, promises viewers won't be disappointed.

Though the Oscar winner does not appear in the film, it features a cast of local citizens, many of whom were children of war in the '90s. "The former Yugoslavia has a rich history of dramatic arts. The cast was extraordinary," Jolie said. "I was privileged and honored to work with them and I am very excited for everyone to see their immense talent."
