The Igman March effectively showcases a unified identity among a diverse group of Serbs, Croats, and Bosniaks, breaking down ethnic barriers. Despite its progressive stance on ethnicity and anti-fascism, the film falls short in exploring gender fluidity and providing meaningful roles for those with disabilities. Its strength lies in modeling a cohesive, multi-ethnic collective as the primary force for historical change.
