Seventeen-year-old Sara and the rest of her class take a school trip to Greece. While her classmates get drunk on the bus, she mostly keeps to herself. When things spiral out of control and Sara witnesses a brutal assault on a fellow student, an alliance is forged between the two girls that will bind them forever. Winner of the Audience Award at Sarajevo, Kosara Mitić’s debut feature 17 is a raw and deeply harrowing film about growing up, manipulation, and the ease with which in the Balkans responsibility for violence is shifted onto its victims. Inspired by a real event that shook the region, it is an uncompromising depiction of a reality that Mitić refuses to make comfortable or easily digestible.
