Donja Bočinja, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Džabir, Usama e Uzejr are three young brothers raised in a muslim family of shepherds. Since they were children, the father Ibrahim taught them rigorously the precepts of Quran and the stories of the Bosnian War where he fought with the Mujaheddin against the Serbian enemies in name of Jihad. The three brothers are brought up to follow a strict Salafi way of life, glorifying Mujahideen and feeling the danger to be a muslim in a world where many muslim countries are under attack. When Ibrahim gets senteced for terrorism, after his return from Daesh, Džabir, Usama e Uzejr are thrown into crisis, questioning their believe in the only way of Islam they have ever known. The imprisonment of the father creates a deep fracture raising doubts. Now, free from Ibrahim’s influence, will they follow the steps of the father on the path to Jihad or seek a different future out of the Salafi community? In an intimate portrayal of contemporary Bosnia and its insular Salafi community, Brotherhood is an anthropological exploration of youth, brotherhood, religion and extremism in the most radicalized region of Europe.
