Borba nove generacije za ljudska prava

Ovogodišnji Sarajevo Film Festival će pod pokroviteljstvom Kraljevine Nizozemske organizirati Dan ljudskih prava. Program će uključivati projekciju filma SLUČAJ NOVE VELIČINE Anne Shishove. Suprotstavljanje kršenju ljudskih prava ostaje naš vodeći princip. Nažalost, vidimo razarajuće posljedice kršenja ljudskih prava od strane ruskog režima u slučaju Ukrajine. Upravo zbog toga smo odlučili prikazati ovaj film široj publici, te dodatno uključiti mlade aktiviste iz regiona u diskusiju. Ove godine sa zadovoljstvom objavljujemo da proširujemo naš program, uključujući i radionicu povodom Dana ljudskih prava sa mladim aktivistima starosti od 18 do 25 godina iz Bosne i Hercegovine i Zapadnog Balkana. Radionica se organizira u partnerstvu sa insitutom KULT i Young European Ambassadors. Kao i prethodnih godina, program obuhvata panel diskusiju i uvodne riječi. Panel će moderirati Tue Steen Mueller, filmski kritičar.

New generation’s fight for human rights

Under the auspices of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the 2022 Sarajevo Film Festival will organize the Human Rights Day programme. The programme will include a screening of the film THE NEW GREATNESS CASE by Anna Shishova. Standing against human rights violation stays our guiding principle. We, unfortunately, see the devastating consequences of Russian regime’s human rights abuses in the case of Ukraine. This is exactly why we have decided to show this film to general audience and, additionally, include young activists from the region in the discussing. This year, we are delighted to announce that we are extending our programme including Human Rights Day Workshop with young activists aged between 18 and 25 from Bosnia and Herzegovina and Western Balkans. The workshop is organized in partnership with KULT and Young European Ambassadors. As in the previous years, the programme encompasses panel discussion and opening remarks. Panel will be moderated by True Steen Mueller, film critic.

Anja je bila normalna tinejdžerka koja je sanjala o tome da život u Rusiji učini boljim. Uhapšena je u martu 2018. i osuđena na zatvorsku kaznu po optužbi da je formirala ekstremističku grupu sa ciljem nasilnog svrgavanja vlasti. Tokom tri naredne godine njena majka Julia očajnički se borila da dokaže da je njena kći nevina. Borba za pravdu i praktična, detaljna spoznaja pravog stanja stvari u državi Juliju su iz apolitične građanke pretvorile u strastvenu aktivisticu za ljudska prava.
