Summary
- Sequel to Oscar-nominated film 'Quo Vadis, Aida?' has started shooting.
- It focuses on mothers searching for sons taken by Serbian forces.

The highly anticipated sequel to Jasmila Žbanić's "Quo Vadis, Aida?" has commenced filming in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Indie Sales is handling international sales for the project, with a Spring 2027 delivery expected.
The narrative delves into the immediate aftermath of the 1995 Srebrenica fall. Aida embarks on a desperate quest to find her sons, who were reportedly taken by Serbian forces and might be alive in a camp. She navigates a refugee center filled with displaced women, who realize they must rely on themselves for help.
Jasna Đuričić returns to her award-winning role as Aida, leading an international cast that includes Simon McBurney and Liam Cunningham. Director Jasmila Žbanić, lauded for her previous work including "Grbavica" and an episode of "The Last of Us," helms this powerful continuation.
Indie Sales CEO Nicolas Eschbach described the film as a "remarkable focus on sorority and an unflinching pursuit of justice." The production involves multiple European countries, including Austria, the Netherlands, Germany, and France, with significant support from various film funds and broadcasters.
