Synopsis<\/strong><\/p>\n

Four former combatants from Bosnia-Herzegovina,Croatia and Serbia and four people who were close to them at war-time, speak of their motivations to join the war in the nineties and their views of it from nowadays perspective and gained insights in the meantime.<\/p>\n

Novica who lost his leg in war speaks of his need to communicate with Croats who stood at the other side of the frontline, his wife Borica speaks of the despair she felt when she was left alone with their children. Nermin, a committed Muslim fromSarajevoconfronts discrimination against Serbs that happens today, his friend Aco feels the burden that war has left him…<\/p>\n

Bitterness and the feeling of being betrayed connects their thoughts, but foremost the feeling of responsibility to engage in order to prevent violence from happening as extreme as it once was, and as subtle as it goes on today in various discrimination forms against minorities. The combatant roles are miraculously replaced by roles of social activists who confront mainstream nationalism and hatred against former enemies.<\/p>\n

Once fighting for their states, today they fight for open borders and freedoms for all people, learning from their experiences and acting according to their feeling of responsibility.<\/p>\n

You who will come to the surface<\/div>\n
From the flood that’s overwhelmed us<\/div>\n
and drowned us all.<\/div>\n
Must think, when you speak of our weakness<\/div>\n
in times of darkness<\/div>\n
That you’ve not had to face<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Bertolt Brecht, 1939<\/em><\/div>\n
