Take Me Somewhere Nice was written and directed by Ena Sendijarevic (born 1987), an Amsterdam-based Bosnian filmmaker and screenwriter. It is her first feature film.
A teenage girl, Alma (Sara Luna Zoric), living in the Netherlands with her mother, returns to her native Bosnia to visit a father, now seriously ill, who she hardly knows.
Her cousin Emir (Ernad Prnjavorac) picks her up at the airport, but, apart from that, ignores Alma, including her requests that he drive her to her father’s house in a town some distance away. He is too busy, Emir asserts, although he is unemployed. He seems wary of this visitor from a wealthier part of Europe, and the wariness makes him indifferent or aloof. Their relationship is something of an armed truce, at least to begin with.
