Outside the Framework
UNDER CONSTRUCTION SERIES
In 2003 and 2004, a Kosova based documentary team traveled throughout the countries of ex-Yugoslavia and Albania, filming and interviewing their neighbors about the issues that have been present and relevant to everyone of the region since the fall of communism and recent Balkan wars. The Outside the Framework Documentary Series shows this region undergo its extreme changes through the voices of ex-fighters, local journalists, musicians, activists, Romas, and other interesting and un-common characters. Each episode of this six part series focuses on one special theme, weaving together the perspectives of people from each country.
Disposable Heroes
The ones who fought in the recent Balkan wars were, in the beginning, adored heroes for the masses. As time progressed, they were pushed back to the margins, treated as a nuisance by their governments. Though the reasons they went to war may differ, the general outcome was the same for all of them. Usually unemployed, struggling with the insufficient help from their governments, most of them feel abandoned by the societies they have fought for. This episode gives a picture of the Balkans through the eyes of those who were executioners and victims of their creation.
