Sinopsis

Now the basis for the major documentary film, Kiss the Future.

This "extraordinary human story" (Irish Times) is Bill Carter's deeply personal memoir of his experience in the war-torn city of Sarajevo. In 1991, the 26-year-old Carter joined up with a maverick aid organization to deliver food to orphanages across the city while dressed as a clown. He soon discovered the underground world of punk rock clubs, discos and a thriving cultural scene within the besieged city where art and music were used as a defiant act against the war. It was this creative spirit that led Carter on a journey to draw attention to the war in Bosnia and inspire hope among its people by convincing the rock band U2 to beam the citizens of Sarajevo into their stadium concerts via satellite.

Fools Rush In is a memoir of witness that shines an indelible light on the people of Sarajevo and their deep belief in coexistence during the longest siege in modern history.
