Description

At times, everyone wonders what they would do if faced with extraordinary decisions. Damir and Iskra – island teenagers caught in 16th Century geopolitics – have a chance to find out. In a tale triggered by a historic attack on the island of Korčula (in today’s Croatia), the pair are thrown into an unexpected adventure of intrigue and personal responsibility. Along the way, Damir and Iskra come to grips with peer pressure, the nature of war, and their own feelings.

Adriatic Tales: Island at the Edge of War is a story of individual choices set along the fault line between the European powers and the Ottoman Empire. After a 1571 battle between an Ottoman fleet and local defenders, Damir discovers a foreign boy who seems to have washed ashore near Damir’s village. Together, he and Iskra must confront prejudices and their own doubts as they decide to bring the boy to a Turkish envoy in Dubrovnik, all the while pursued by men who want the boy for revenge or ransom. The story touches on war, love, and tolerance, and tells of individuals willing to challenge conventional biases.
