'Different languages but one U2'

Second part of our U2.com mini-documentary on how Alma Catel, star of 1995's Miss Sarajevo, travelled to Zagreb last month to see the band play. (And what happened at the show...)

01 Sep 2009
Alma Catel was the star of Bill Carter's award-winning 1995 documentary Miss Sarajevo. When the band returned to the region, for the show in Zagreb last month, we tracked down Alma to see how life has changed for her... and for this part of Europe.

In Part 1 Alma travels to the show and recalls Sarajevo during the siege.

In Part 2 we find Alma picking up her tickets, getting very nervous, reminiscing on U2's 1997 Sarajevo PopMart show... and, after all this time, meeting the band again. The show, she tells Bono, 'was almost as good as Sarajevo... but not quite.'
