Synopsis
War photographer David Pratt takes a road trip through the Balkans, revisiting the conflict where he came closest to the edge: the Yugoslav wars of the 90s.
David begins his journey on the Danube River at Vukovar, Croatia. David came to Vukovar as a young photographer in 1991 to cover the opening battle of what turned out to be the brutal series of ethnically driven wars that followed the breakup of Yugoslavia.
