Kritik: |
One of the key issues regarding the future political status of Kosovo is whether standards for the decent treatment of alI ethnic minorities Iiving in Kosovo wilI be established and implemented.
8 fiIms presented on this DVD offer persuasive evidence that, so far, these standards have not been met. Films cover events from the onset of violence in Kosovo (preceding the NATO intervention in 1999), untiI the most recent terrorist attacks committed by Albanian extremists in 2005, and are, in fact, a unique and excIusive video document about some of the cruciaI aspects of the current Kosovo crisis.
These films have been presented to audiences at major poIiticaI, academic and cuItural worId forums – in Washington D.C., New York, Chicago, Boston, Moscow, London, Berlin, Paris, Rome, Athens – and were also shown at the internationaI film festivaIs where some of the films have received awards (London, Paris, Moscow, Athens, lrkutsk).
