BOSNIAN CINEMA: WAR & PEACE.
27 - 30 October 2005
Riverside Studios, London


The Bosnian Institute presents a season of films from 
Bosnia-Herzegovina and other events. Since the end of the war in 1995 
Bosnian cinema has seen a remarkable resurgence, regaining its 
reputation for creative film-making and winning major international 
awards. Inevitably, a major preoccupation of the new Bosnian cinema 
is war and its aftermath. The season sets contemporary production in 
context with an accompanying selection of very different pre-war 
films on the same theme. The season also celebrates ten years of 
Sarajevo Film Festival (SFF): born in the midst of war, screening its 
first programme in October 1995, SFF has grown to be an influential 
international festival.
