Visoko - Flying High

Directing: Ira Hadzic

Synopsis

In 2005, the Texas-based businessman and pyramid researcher Semir Osmanagić visited the Bosnian town of Visoko. He claimed that the hills surrounding the town could well be the oldest existing pyramids in the world. The hypothesis awoke the war-torn region from its slumber and inspired more than just the inhabitants of Visoko, which during the Middle Ages was at the heart of the Bosnian kingdom, to some extremely creative flights of the imagination. Visoko - Flying High tells of euphoric plans for the future in a region of Europe where globalisation is only just starting to take effect. The newly discovered pyramids fulfil multiple functions: they act as a beacon of hope, a source of inspiration and, not least of all, as an important economic catalyst.
