Plot

The film is concerned with Harrison Lloyd, a Pulitzer Prize-winning "Newsweek" photojournalist who travels on his last assignment to the former Yugoslavia in 1991, during the Croatian War of Independence. Although he is presumed to have died in a building collapse, his wife travels to the region to find him, believing him to be in the city of Vukovar. Travelling through the war-torn landscape, she arrives in the city, and bears witness to the massacre which took place there. Back home, Harrison's son Cesar cares for his father's flowers in their greenhouse. The flowers could symbolize the family's hope of finding Harrison.
