The distributor in Serbia of Angelina Jolie's directorial debut — a love story set in the Bosnian war — says the movie will start showing here next week, but without a red-carpet premiere it had in Bosnia.

Zoran Savic, from the Millennium Film, says "the movie will be shown normally, so whoever wants to see it will have a chance to do so."

Jolie's "In the Land of Blood and Honey" has triggered outrage among the Serbs who claim it depicts them as the only villains of the 1992-95 Bosnian war.

The drama about a Serb soldier who finds his ex-lover, a Muslim Bosnian woman, among sex slaves in a camp, met with ovations at the Sarajevo screening Tuesday.

Jolie also will attend the premiere in Croatia on Friday.
