Gordana Knezevic knows all about war, having lived in Sarajevo under the fire of Serbian guns on a daily basis from 1992 to 1994. As a Serbian journalist living in a multi-cultural city, her newspaper was the target of Serb missiles and guns, largely because of its multi-ethnic staff. Two of her children were sent out of the city for the sake of safety, but reconciliation has been difficult in the aftermath of the war and this decision. Today, Gordana and her family struggle to reinvent themselves in peacetime Canada, despite the horrors of the past and the difficulties of the present.
