Documentary was inspired by scholarly research results on stereotypes and associations on Bosnia and Herzegovina. In the global perception Sarajevo is no longer connected to the First World War triggering assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, nor the 1984 Olympic Games. According to the research war, coffee, gastronomy, wild landscapes and friendships are the most common associations on Bosnia. Locals have different interpretations of the fleur de lis, the symbol of medieval Bosnian Kingdom. What does it really mean? How much do we really know about symbols and stereotypes? In the modern times where the world is bombarded by media and other peoples' perceptions of reality, stereotypes are the tools for processing experience and human communication. We costume and dress up our perceptions communicating through simplified schemes for decoding the significances of the notions in the world that surrounds us. The mind performs operations to simplify the reality by framing the new experiences into an existing stereotype. The specific auteur style of this educational film balances on the edge of mockumentary. Written by lela See less
