TV documentary series “Koliko jos?” to air in FRY from 18 June, 2001

From Monday, June 18th, the documentary series “Koliko jos?” will air on 25 TV stations in FRY as a series of 30 programs, each five minutes long, broadcast every working day for the next six weeks.

Five years after the war ended in Bosnia and Herzegovina, displacement still affects every aspect of life. Although almost 370,000 displaced people and refugees have returned to their homes in BiH, many face further difficulties in their efforts to re-establish a normal life, while of the 518,000 still displaced within the borders of BiH, many are still unable to repossess their property.

The “Koliko jos?” documentary series provides a voice to those people, asking the question: “How much further” is there to go before everyone will be able to live a normal life in BiH? The “video diaries” that make up the series provide some thought-provoking responses from those who are still displaced, as well as those who have already returned. These stories are a testament to the triumph of many ordinary people over adversity as well as a reminder of the challenges that still await the politicians and the people of BiH if they are to create a better future.

and the people of BiH if they are to create a better future.

“Koliko jos?” was produced by Internews BiH in cooperation with the Office of the High Representative in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and has already been broadcast on TV BiH , RT RS, 20 regional TV stations across BiH and (RTRS, TVBiH and 20 regional television in BiH) on the CCN network in Croatia.
