The Sky Above Zenica

The Sky Above Zenica 2024

8.00

In Zenica, a giant steel factory belches toxic gasses into the air day and night, making the city one of the world’s most polluted, and people are dying. Samir Lemes and citizen activists from Eko Forum fight an uneven fight for change against the reckless corporation, the local politicians who focus on jobs, investments, and re-elections, and the EU who co-funds the corporation without enforcing laws and international standards. Instead, they name Zenica ‘A Green City Project’, building bicycle lanes in a city where breathing is a health hazard. A film about financial cynicism, political pragmatisk and greenwashing, in which West European countries play a surprisingly big role.

Sarajevo Revisited is the story of three remarkable children who grew up during the war in Bosnia We first visited them in their then besieged hometown of Sarajevo in 1995. Three years of bitter war in the heart of Europe had left Bosnia utterly destroyed and as true in most wars, the children seemed to have suffered most. At age ten, Emir Spiritovic, Irena Dragoje and Naida Kuduz seemed to cope with the effects of the war in very different ways: sometimes defiant and angry, more often sad and deeply frightned. Eight years after the war Emir, Irena and Naida turn 18. At first sight they seem to be no different then kids of their ages in Berlin, Paris or Londen. They visit house parties, they skate, wear designer clothes and they chat with friends around the world on their computers. But under the surface war has left its traces. Sarajevo Revisited is the compelling story of a reunion with three war children who now embody the future of their country.
