Halima's Path background

Halima's Path

A grieving Muslim woman, Halima, embarks on a perilous journey to find her estranged niece, who holds a profound connection to her lost son, whose body remains missing in the aftermath of the Bosnian war.

A Muslim woman in Bosnia searches for the remains of her husband and son, taken by Serbian forces during the war. Despite identifying her husband's remains, she refuses to provide a DNA sample to identify her son, hiding a secret: her son wasn't biologically hers. Two decades prior, Halima and her husband adopted a child after struggling to conceive. As she searches for her son's biological mother, she uncovers a family secret: her niece, who had an affair with a Serbian boyfriend, gave birth to the child and passed it off as her own. Halima's search leads her to her estranged niece, now living in a Serbian-controlled part of Bosnia, but a shocking discovery halts her search.
