Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt to Visit Zagreb for Movie Premiere

Hollywood couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt will visit Croatia this month for the launch of her directorial debut, a Bosnian wartime love story, a distributor said earlier this week.

The movie "In the Land of Blood and Honey" will have its official debut in Sarajevo on February 14 and in the Croatian capital Zagreb three days later, the local distributor, Blitz Film, said in a statement.

The Zagreb premiere will be held at the CineStar Arena IMAX theatre on February 17.

The film tells the story of a Muslim woman and a Serb man who have a relationship before Bosnia's 1990s war only to meet again when the woman is the prisoner of a unit of the Bosnian Serb army commanded by her former lover.

While at first he is able to protect her, once he is transferred she suffers abuse and rape at the hands of the soldiers.

The film was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for best foreign movie. It won the Stanley Kramer award which is presented by the Producers Guild of America.
