Bosnia: A Wounded Land
produced by SW Pictures (London, England: SW Pictures, 2009), 1 hour
Does anyone still believe in Bosnia-Herzogovina or that three years of war (1992-1995) and the following 13 years of uneasy peace have achieved very much? Would fighting break out again if international troops left the area? This film paints a picture of a country that in many ways is still as deeply divided as wh...

Does anyone still believe in Bosnia-Herzogovina or that three years of war (1992-1995) and the following 13 years of uneasy peace have achieved very much? Would fighting break out again if international troops left the area? This film paints a picture of a country that in many ways is still as deeply divided as when the Dayton Accords were signed in 1995. Reasons for pessimism abound.

Does anyone still believe in Bosnia-Herzogovina or that three years of war (1992-1995) and the following 13 years of uneasy peace have achieved very much? Would fighting break out again if international troops left the area? This film paints a picture of a country that in many ways is still as deeply divided as when the Dayton Accords were signed in 1995. Reasons for pessimism abound. Sarajevo had a reputation as a multi-ethnic, tolerant city but there are signs that it has fallen under the thrall of nationalist Muslims. Only the presence of foreign forces, police and advisors from the UN and the European Union has maintained the fragile balance between Bosnia’s Serb Orthodox, Croat Catholic, and Muslim communities over the dozen years since the civil war. The country has three presidents, one for each community, but the government is riven by crises – often with the same causes as those that sparked off the war.

This is a story of six decades, three countries and statelessness. A story about the Urdu-speaking community of Bangladesh. The terms 'Urdu-speakers,' 'Non-Bengalees' and 'Biharis' are used interchangeably to refer to Muslim people who originally emigrated from India to the newly created East Pakistan in 1947 and afterwards. Many of them, but by no means all, originated from the state of Bihar and were fleeing large scale communal massacres. Three decades later, during the struggle for independence of Bangladesh in 1971, this community became embroiled in conflict. Branded as collaborators against Bangladesh independence, this moment became a defining one for the Urdu-speakers and has had a devastating legacy. This story is about the 160,000 people from this community who live isolated in 116 camps or settlements in Bangladesh now.
