It was only meant to have be a five-day road trip to drop off aid to refugee camps in the former Yugoslavia during the Balkan conflict...
It turned into a race against time to escape a bombing raid, deep in the midst of the war zone of Croatia and Bosnia.
Songs of Peace brings to life the courageous and unheard stories of the refugees during the civil war of 1993, and their hopes for the future.
