What do 'unfolding drama of the war' and 'come just over' mean?

This multimillion dollar film, the biggest budget movie ever to be made on Georgian soil, tells the story of a journalist and a camera man caught up in the unfolding drama of the war in 2008. The Georgian government has actively supported the filmmakers by allowing them access to public buildings, but it denies that it is helping to fund the project. One of the producers is a pro-government member of parliament, Papuna Davitaia:

Papuna Davitaia: 'The Georgian government has no role in sponsoring film. Georgian government helps only with permit for shooting and money doesn't come from government.'

The film comes just over a year since the conflict during which time both sides have competed to put their own spin on what happened in August 2008. Then, Russian forces poured into Georgia to repel its attempt to retake the disputed region of South Ossetia. But neither side has ever been able to accept the other's version of events.

In addition to the Hollywood movie, Russian media has reported that the Serbian director, Emir Kusturica, is planning to shoot a screenplay to tell the South Ossetian point of view.
