Synopsis
Serbia was demonized by the West after the wars that destroyed Yugoslavia in the nineties. Writer David Homel travels to this "land of the devil" to explore the ravaged landscape of the Balkans. His guide is Vladimir Jovic, a Bosnian Serb psychiatrist who saw the break-up of his country and the end of Slobodan Milosevic's dictatorship. Today, Dr. Jovic treats his many compatriots who have been traumatized by their country's past.

From the battlefields to the psychiatrist's couch, Is my Story Hurting You? provides a disturbing look behind the scenes of history, where evil terrifies but also fascinates. Yet as people talk openly about their experiences, healing begins and life can carry on.
