A Perfect Day

Set in 1995, somewhere in the Balkans, during the war. Over the course of 24 breathless hours, a group of aid workers have to deal with a most unexpected crisis, layers of bureaucratic red tape, and the reappearance of their leader's old flame. Through it all, the group handles the less-than-glamorous realities of life in a combat zone the only way they know how: with selfless bravery and a healthy dose of irreverent humor. Mostly in English with subtitles where necessary.
