Greetings from Kosovo, Documentary, www.seetv-exchanges.com

A mixed production crew (Albanian and Serb), travelled around Kosovo to meet ordinary people from both communities- in cities and villages, in enclaves and monasteries, in schools, cafés and hospitals. They talked to leading figures in media and political life, from moderate and radical circles and from international organisations. Exploring the mosaic of daily life in the disputed land, exchanging views and perceptions on the present and the future.

For both communities, it’s clear that the current situation has to change. But there are radically opposed views on what the future status of Kosovo should be. Can the deadlock be broken? Can Europe be the key to Kosovo’s future?
