Araf is an essayistic road movie and diary of a ghostly
character, Nayia, who travels between Srebrenica and
Sarajevo to Mostar in Bosnia. She has been in exile since
the war and returns for the 22nd memorial of the Srebrenica
genocide. The film is guided by her diary notes of the
journey which merge with the myth of Daedalus and Icarus
– Icarus being the name given to the winner of a bridge
diving competition in her home country. The story of Icarus
and Daedalus, a myth symbolic of man’s over-ambition and
inevitable failure, is weaved throughout the film as a way
to think about exorcizing the vicious cycle of such events
happening in the future and of a possible reconciliation.
Nayia also thinks of Icarus from a different perspective,
that of seeing the optimism of such a leap, his braveness
of taking a leap into the unknown in this era of radical
instability, that perhaps, Icarus wanted to write a different
narrative.
