CCA 4 Saturday 18th October 7.00-8.00 pm My Friends Lidija Zelovic Netherlands 2007 60 Mins A intimate and powerful
documentary about four friends who grew up together in Sarajevo. Olja, Emina,
Jasna and the director of this film, Lidija, are now in their thirties and live
in different countries around the world.
What has happened to them in the past 13 years? How did they get through the war? How do they live now? How do they relate to their former life, to Sarajevo and to their old friends? What did they actually believe in back then- and what do they believe in now?
Lidija: " It is great to believe in something. I used to believe in Tito and Yugoslavia. It was a kind of religion, with a different kind of a God, though. Oh yes, I was good at it. I even believed that everyone I knew believed the same: we were all proud Tito pioneers who would grow up to become communists like our parents. The path was simple and beautiful. My life and that of my friends was alike. Then it all fell apart and each of us became unhappy in our own way."
Lidija is preparing her wedding and hopes it will be the occasion to see her friends again after a long time.
