Jolie film blocked in Bosnia after objections to story line

Oct 13, 2010, 17:52 GMT

Sarajevo - Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie has run into problems with her directorial debut, after complaints about the film's
subject led to the cancellation of her filming permits in Bosnia on Wednesday.

Jolie's film is a love story set during the 1992-95 Bosnian war. According to Sarajevo media, the main characters are a Muslim girl who is raped by a Serb soldier with whom she later falls in love.

The minister of culture for the Muslim-Croat Federation, Gavrilo Grahovac, retracted Jolie's permits after meeting with the activist group 'Women - war victims.'

The group said the film's story was 'unacceptable' and could cause r**** victims 'further emotional pain.'

Jolie began shooting her movie in Hungary earlier this month and was scheduled to film closing scenes in Bosnia in November.

After the war, Bosnia was divided into two largely autonomous parts - the Serb Republic and the Muslim-Croat Federation.

---------------------------------------------------------

This is the thing about Jolie, she doesn't stop and think about the woman she "supposedly" cares so much for by making this movie.

Why exploit this story as a love story? Why exploit it at all? How many women who are raped fall in love with the man that raped them? It just screams sarcasm to those women who have been violently raped. Hum....
