In late 2009 and 2010, the documentary film The Weight Of Chains is going to be filmed in Canada and in republics of the Former Yugoslavia.

The director of this film, Boris Malagurski, has made several films to date, the last one being Kosovo | Can You Imagine?, a controversial documentary exposing how remaining Serbs in Kosovo have little or no basic human rights, which won several awards on film festivals around the world and was broadcasted as well.

The Weight Of Chains, a film planned for release in late 2010, will deal with tough issues concerning the breakup of Yugoslavia and the consequences of a decade of instability and war. The films goal is to present a Canadian perspective on Western involvement in the division of the ethnic groups within Yugoslavia and show that the war was forced from outside regular people wanted peace. However, extreme fractions on all sides outvoiced the moderates and even ten years after the last conflict the hatred remains and people continue spreading myths of what really happened in the 1990s. What really happened?

This film will also present positive stories from the war people helping each other regardless of their ethnic background, stories of bravery and self-sacrifice. The aim is to come up with a powerful weapon that people who are against war and hatred can use as a collection of good arguments in their favor. The disunity among peoples populating the Balkans have marked the last couple of centuries. Lets start a new page, today, in the 21st century.
