In 1993, while a war rages in Bosnia, the conflict manages to spill over into London. A Croat and a Serb, originally from the same village but now sworn enemies, meet by chance on a London bus. A BBC reporter sets out to Bosnia, only to return with his leg amputated. A nurse falls for her refugee patient, while a recently singled obstetrician goes out of his way to help a pregnant Bosnian woman.
