Plot
A portrait film about Aija Kuģe, an intelligent, charming Latvian woman who is married to a Serb, has lived in Belgrade for 25 years, and is a special correspondent for the American radio station "Brīvība" in Yugoslavia. At the height of NATO air strikes on Belgrade, she continued to report on events in Belgrade, despite increased surveillance by the Yugoslav secret service and NATO bombs. Aija was and is at the very heart of the Yugoslav conflict, as she has gained the trust of all parties involved in the conflict. Aija believes that no conflict can be resolved through repressive methods, weapons or bloodshed. The result of any military action is tears, death, and destruction.
