Courtesy of the Bosniak American Advisory Council for Bosnia and Herzegovina, there will be two opportunities for Washington, DC area residents to see the highly acclaimed short film In the Name of the Son by Bosnian-American filmaker Harun Mehmedinovic.
Thursday, Sept. 18 at 6:45 PM, there will be a screening at Georgetown University, on the 7th floor of the ICC on 37th & O St. NW, Washington, DC 20057.
Friday, Sept. 19 from 2:00-4:00 PM, there will be a screening with Harun Mehmedinovic as guest at room 1116 of the Longworth Building on Capital Hill.
The film has already won a great deal of acclaim and I hope that these screenings are well-attended. I will not be at the Friday event, due to a family conflict, but will make every effort to be at the Georgetown viewing Thursday.
In Bosnia, a war was fought between civic nationalism and individual liberty versus ethnic nationalism and collectivism. Bosnia's struggle was, and is, America's struggle. Dedicated to the struggle of all of Bosnia's peoples--Bosniak, Croat, Serb, and others--to find a common heritage and a common identity.
