...Nema Problema, a film inside the war, against to all the fiction on the war…“
Patrizia Notarnicola , “Reflection “.

...Restrained and accurate, ‘Nemaproblema’ draws the almost metaphysical enigma in the manner of Durrenmatt…”
Gabriele Ferzetti , “ Il Messaggero “.


“…In its simplicity this film has moments of intensity… and Marolt’s performance confirms his true talent as an actor…”
Tullio Kesich , “ Il Corriere della Sera “ .


“…The director wants to ‘burn fiction by means of fiction’ or rather reveal the methodical confusion which originates from news broadcasts and lands up in history books…”
Cristiana Paternò, “ Tam Tam cinema”


“…Nema Problema, a film on how truth is destroyed by the war…”

“ Il Gazzettino “


“…Giancarlo Bocchi, an experienced documentary film-maker, accomplishes the first Yugoslavian film to be made since the end of the war, on the topic of information and fiction…”
Silvana Silvestri , “Il Manifesto “


“…Simple, few special effects, lots of authenticity and unarmed towards the war. It’s close by, too close to not feel it as a necessity ...”
Andrea Monti, “Filmup “


“…It’s warning cry , a means to claim one’s right to truth and justice…”
Gabriella Gallozzi , “l’Unità”.


“…In this film, one relives all the experience of the fifty year old documenentary film-maker from Parma, who in the past, with his handheld video camera, has reported political and social conflicts from different parts of the world…”
“Smemoranda”


“…Bocchi is a rare example – for Italy – of an independent documentary film-maker who has no fear to go between the devil’s legs in order to bring home evidence, witness , a film…”
“l’Unità- Cineguida ”


“…Here the result of the director’s experience through his numerous documentary films of the Balkans is put to work, witness of a more complex reality than that transmitted by the media…”
“Alias”


“…Nema Problema is not the average film about the conflicts in ex Yugoslavia, but moreover a pamphlet on the disdainful concept of the truth…”
“Ciak”


“…An unusual mix of documentary and fiction both flammable and fascinating…”
“L’Unità”


“…Nema Problema, is a very severe, essential, concise film: we are grateful to him…”
Filiberto Molossi , “ Duellanti”

“…The means of expression, thanks to Bocchi’s experience as a documentary film-maker, are always concise and sharp where only the essential is conveyed especially when dealing with war and its background, without recurring to the usual clichès…”
Gian Luigi Rondi , “ Il Tempo”


“…Nema Problema is not a film about the war. Rather a film inside the war. It is in fact an complex film, but at the same time both eloquent and merciless
Marco Catola , “ Cinema invisibile “


“…Nema Problema flows like a metronome, or rather like a fuse until its final explosion, where sooner or later the truth al
ways comes out…”
Mattia Nicoletti , “Castlerock”


“…The film is structured on multiple levels and manages to astonish by ignoring any form of labelling. Strictly speaking, it is not a film about war, it certainly is a film on war, but above all, it’s a film about people who live inside a war…”
Federico Passi, “ Icine”


“…The director, Giancarlo Bocchi has definitely produced a film which makes one think. Therefore, Nema Problema is a statement film, even though it’s tone is never that of indignant morality, it is simply a statement on a current matter which we cannot, must not allow ourselves to ignore…”
Pierre Hombrebueno , “Cinemaplus”


“…Nema Problema, a small production carried out with great careand awareness, especially when dealing with the sharpness of the narration, with the efficient direction of the actors and for the lucidity of it’s point of view: elements of a style which reveal a talent that must be cultivated, be allowed to mature and to be pursued with curiosity…”
Maurizio Schiaretti , “ Gazzetta di Parma”


“…Nema Problema is an essential to the point film, about the unspoken, about the dust found under the carpets of those war correspondents who exaggerate the events in order to appear themselves at the centre of the piece they are reporting…”
Laura Pietrobon, “ l’Opinione ”


“…It’s thanks to the director that a consideration on the main themes of these wretched years of conflict has been approached, beginning from the relationship between information and conflict, which obviously isn’t limited to the Balkans…”
“Osservatorio dei Balcani”


“…The narrative plot places the camera between a line which separates the war and its outcome on the one side and on the other, how this can be perceived by a universal audience through the press. The truth is sitting next to us, closer than we expect it…”
Davide Zanza ,”Cinecritica”


“…A passionate make-believe, which does not indicate a total discrimination between the yielding of documentary evidence and fiction
Leonardo Lardieri “ Sentieri selvaggi “


“…Someone who has lived through and reported many wars, puts himself to the test with a film illustrating the reverse side of bad information, of the importance of a scoop at any cost, of professional crisis and of the craving of instant clamour in order to capture audiences…”
Eugenio Barzaghi ,”Cinemavvenire”


“…Nema Problema. Searching for the, truth on the war in Bosnia, while filming with one eye turned towards Rossellini’s neorealism…”
Gabriella Mancini, “ Cinemaeoltre “


“…It’s not only about ferocity, But, mainly about deceit and simulation. A film that as something new to say about Bosnia…”
“L’ Espresso”


“…A film with an extraordinary sense of truth. It reveals the reality people have within themselves…”
Maurizio Chierici , “L’Unità”


“…It’s as though Nema Problema forces you to take a step backwards: why not form your own opinion on evidence rather than on other opinions?”
“ Acchiappafilm”


“…The target of the film is the truth. The truth which is impossible to identify- we are on the Bosnian front lines – amongst the four main characters…”
Paolo D’ Agostini , “ La Repubblica”

“…When craving for a scoop turns the correspondent into a novelist, its first victim is the truth…”
“Il Corriere della Sera”
