DocuCorner

Dokumentarni filmovi bave se relevantnim, često osjetljivim pitanjima i donose na dnevni red vrlo važne teme o kojima će se raspravljati u svakom društvu. Pored Q&A sesija, koje se odvijaju u kinima nakon projekcija, SFF već deset godina vodi posebnu platformu za debatu DOCU CORNER, koja se provodi u saradnji s Inicijativom mladih za ljudska prava Bosne i Hercegovine. Ova platforma pruža priliku za detaljne rasprave o svakom dokumentarnom filmu u našem takmičarskom segmentu. Oko 50 mladih iz regije i nekih drugih evropskih zemalja, zajedno sa znatiželjnim novinarima i drugim akreditiranim gostima festivala, imat će priliku sudjelovati u detaljnim sesijama sa svakom filmskom ekipom. Rasprave moderira SFF stručnjak. Svake godine naš DOCU CORNER posjećuje gotovo 100 mladih iz desetak različitih zemalja, ne samo iz regije, već i iz Zapadne Evrope, a ovaj put smo, zbog životnih okolnosti prouzrokovanim COVID-om, odlučili snimiti sve rasprave kako bismo ih prikazali na našoj festivalskoj platformi i učinili ih dostupnim onima koji ove godine nisu mogli doputovati u Sarajevo. Ove će se godine Docu Corner održati od 16. do 21. augusta 2020. godine. E Documentaries tackle relevant, often sensitive issues, and bring to the table very important topics to be discussed in each society. Next to the Q&A sessions, done in cinema after the screenings, SFF runs for already ten years a very special debating platform DOCU CORNER, which is done in collaboration with the Youth Initiative for Human Rights of Bosnia and Herzegovina. This platform gives an opportunity for in-depth debates about each documentary film in our Competition. Around 50 youngsters from the region as well as from several other European countries, to-gether with the curious journalists and other festival accredited guests, will have a chance to par-ticipate in the elaborate sessions with each film team. The discussions are moderated by the SFF professional. Every year, our DOCU CORNER is visited by almost 100 youngsters from around 10 different countries, not only from the Region but from Western Europe as well, and this time, due to the life circumstances caused by COVID, we have decided to record all debates in order to screen them at our Festival platform and make them available for those who couldn’t travel to Sarajevo this year. This year Docu Corner will take a place from 16th until 21st August 2020.

YIHR BH / DocuCorner

Učešće incijative mladih za ljudska prava u Bosni i Hercegovini (YIHR BH) na Sarajevo Film Festivalu (SFF) je aktivnost koja je postala tradicionalna i traje već devet godina. Mladi aktivisti imaju priliku učestovati na projekcijama filmova Takmičakskog programa – Dokumentarni film na SFF-u i nakon projekcije filmova, na Docu Corneru, diskutovati o glavnim porukama prikazanog filma sa svojim kolegama/cama i autorima filma. Također, prikazani filmovi često pokrenu diskusiju o osnovnim znanjima o standardima ljudskih prava, postojećim i institucionalnim mehanizmima za zaštitu građanskih prava, kao i teme vezane za suočavanje sa prošlošću i tranzicionu pravdu. Ove produktivne diskusije inspirišu mlade aktiviste/ce o novim načinima i metodama kako doprinijeti ovim važnim i relevantnim temama kroz konkretne akcije. Ciljevi okupljanja mladih na Docu Corneru su: (1) poticati izgradnju povjerenja među mladim ljudima iz različitih etničkih zajednica, koja u konačnici integrira održivu i umreženu grupu aktivista/ca u Bosni i Hercegovini u strukturu incijative mladih za ljudksa prava u BiH (YIHR BH); i (2) povezuje mlade ljude cijele iz Bosne i Hercegovine s njihovim vršnjacima u Srbiji, Crnoj Gori i Hrvatskoj, uspostavljajući na regionalnom nivou direktni dijalog između etnički podjeljenih mladih ljudi. Od prije dvije godine, mladi ljudi iz Bosne i Hercegovine i regije, također, imaju priliku razmjenjivati svoja iskustva i znanja s mladim ljudima iz cijele Evrope koji, također, učestvuju u ovom programu. Ovakva okupljanja mladih ljudi, naručito iz rauličitih djelova Bosne i Hercegovine, svakako predstavljaju jedan od početnih koraka ka razbijanju predsrasuda među mladim ljudima različitih nacionalnosti, ali, također, doprinose i izgradnji solidarnosti i povjerenja među njima, što je od preduslova za zajedničke aktivnosti koje YIHR BH kontinuirano provodi prije i poslije SFF-a. Regionalna dimenzija SFF-a se očituje i kroz razbijanje predrasuda među mladim ljudima iz različitih zemalja. Učešće na SFF-u im daje mogućnost da razmjene svoja iskustva, definišu sličnosti i da razgovaraju o „tabu“ temama (LGBTQ, identiteti, manjine) i da, u stvari, uvide da između njih posji mnogo više zajedničkih stvari koje ih povezuju, nego onih koje ih razdvajaju. YIHR BH je ponosan što je dio velike SFF porodice i raduje se nastavku saradnje kroz rad s mladim ljudima iz cijele Bosne i Hercegovine, Balkana i Evrope.

E Participation at Sarajevo Film Festival (SFF) is an activity that had become a traditional and it is ongoing for nine years. Young activists have the chance to participate at Human Rights Program at SFF and afer the screening, at Docu-Corner, to discuss the main issues of the shown film with their colleagues and authors. In addition, the movies are triggering discussion about basic knowlage of human rights standards, existing institutional mechanisms for citizens’ rights protection and topics related to the facing the past and transitional justice. Those productive discussions are inspiring young activists to search and apply the new ways of contributing to those important and relevant topics through tangible actions. Goals: The project’s purpose is to (1) foster the trust between youung people from different ethnic communities, ultimately leading to a sustainable and networked group of activists in BiH integrated into the YIHR BH structure; and (2) connect youung people from throughout BiH with their peers in Serbia, Montenegro, and Croatia, brokering direct dialog between ethnically divided young people on reginal scale. Since two years ago, young people from Bosnia and Herzegovina and the region also have an opportunity to share their experiences and knowlage with youung people from entire Europe who are also taking part in this program. It is important to emphasize importance of such gathering of youung people, particulary from the different parts of BiH – this certainly represents a first step towards breaking the prejudice among young people of different national backgrounds, but also building solldarity and trust among them, which is pre-condition for continuous joint activities that YIHR BH conducts before and after SFF. On the other side, a regional dimension of SFF is also reflected throught breaking prejudices among youung people from different countries. Participation at SFF provides them an opportunity to exchange their experiences, define their similirities, to discuss „taboo“ topics among themselves (e.g. minorities, LGTBQ, population, identities) and to realize that there are more common things that connect them ,rather to separate them). YIHR BH is proud to be part of the SFF family and is looking forward to continuing its work with youung people from aroung Bosnia and Herzegovina, Balkan region and Europe.
