The Children of Srebrenica.
A documentary about memory, the Mars Mira, and the stories that must never be forgotten. Screened on NPO1.
We had the honour of telling this story.
We had the honor of making a documentary about Srebrenica — a place with a rich history where the scars of the past are still visible daily. In 1995, the genocide in Srebrenica took place, and in memory of all 8,372 identified victims, a 100-kilometer pilgrimage, the Mars Mira, is held annually.
In this documentary, we captured the stories of those involved and participants in the march, providing an in-depth view of the impact of this march on the Bosnian population and the future of the region. Because these stories must not be forgotten.
100 km — the March of Peace
Every year, thousands of people walk 100 kilometers through the Bosnian mountains to reach Srebrenica — retracing the path that survivors and refugees fled in 1995. The Mars Mira (March of Peace) is a powerful act of remembrance and solidarity.
It brings together Bosnians, survivors, international participants, and young people from all over the world. Not to relive the trauma, but to honor the victims, hear the survivors, and commit to never again. SC Nowruz filmed the participants and their stories to share with the world.
"These stories must not be forgotten. We undertook this journey with care and dedication, with the aim of sharing these crucial moments from history."
