“Quo Vadis, Aida?” — a fictionalized account of events leading up to the 1995 massacre of Muslims during the Yugoslav War — is up for an Academy Award in the International Feature Film category. The film was directed by Bosnian filmmaker Jasmila Žbanić, who was living in Vermont when the killings took place.
