Soul Train hits you like a truck from the very first second, and it doesn’t stop until the very end. You will see a side of Bosnia you don’t see very often in film. This high-energy and highly entertaining (and at times humorous) film is described as the first-ever film to tell stories about Bosnian hip-hop and rap music and the leading Bosnian artists and musicians behind the genre. For five days, rappers Frankie and Kontra, DJ Soul and music producer Billain traveled more than 500 kilometers, visit Tuzla, Banja Luka, Zenica, Sarajevo, Mostar and Konjic, meeting musicians from Bosnia and Herzegovina. On the road, they recorded sounds and created new songs.

Our institutions have been stuck on linear Neo-Platonic tracks for 24 centuries. These antiquated processes of deduction have lost their authority. Just like art it has fallen off its pedestal. Legal, educational and constitutional systems rigidly subscribe to these; they are 100% text based.
