Nothing much but raves for Danis Tanovic's An Episode in the Life of an Iron Picker since it first screened at the 2013 Berlin International Film Festival. A documentary-style drama about an iron picker in modern-day Bosnia and his ill wife, the film won the Grand Jury Prize and the Prize of the Ecumenical Jury at Berlin, alongside the Best Actor Silver Bear for lead Nazif Mujic. The principal cast is entirely non-professional. It opens here in the UK this coming Friday, the 25th of April.
