Kosovo, Spring 2000.
Winter is over, but only in a meteorological sense. Rubble and grief.
Devastation everywhere on the earth grazed by the sun. Wounds that will never
heal, uncertain movements of a new beginning, black and white paradoxes, while
broken colour images emerge from memory. Two words, deca e fÁ«mijÁ«t, mean
"child" in Serbian and Albanian, but they can't find space in the
irrational war vocabulary. No doubt children are the most defenceless victims
of a fight fomented by hatred. Besarta, Violeta and Edmond, Valdrim, Milijana
and Jelena are respectively Serbian and Albanian. The film tells their black
and white stories interspersed with some colour Super 8 images filmed by the
children themselves.
