Where are you going, Aida?

Europe - Bosnia - July 1995

Srebrenica is transformed into a giant slaughterhouse

Every second, three deadly projectiles land on this town

They just brought 17 victims to the hospital,

They were accompanied by 57 injured people.

Can anyone in the world come and watch this tragedy happening to Srebrenica and it's citizens?

This is an outrageous crime...

We are doing everything we can.

They have been issued a formal ultimatum.

They have until 6 a.m. to withdraw all their heavy weapons.

If they fail to comply, NATO jets will attack all their positions.

There is nothing more to be done at this time.

He says they're doing all that's in their power. They gave Serbs an ultimatum.

If they don't withdraw their weapons by 6 a.m. NATO jets will attack all their positions.

Always the same...

You always tell us the same thing, but nothing ever happens.

You said the same thing three days ago when the Serbian army entered the safe zone.

And again two days ago when they besieged the town.

You said they wouldn't come even a centimeter closer.

But hour after hour, their tanks are closer and closer.

I don't understand- -Wait a bit!

Now continue. - Why is Srebrenica a safe zone

If the Serbs can attack as they like?

You keep telling us we are safe, right?

We're safe but they are bombing the city.

Their soldiers are in every village around the town, man.

As I said, they have been issued an ultimatum.

And this has very serious consequences if they fail to act.

Between 40 and 70 aircrafts are on stand-by and ready to launch an attack

On all the positions held by the Republic of Srpska Army.

They will be wiped out.

Shouldn't, in that case, the citizens move to shelters?

They are safe. They can stay in their homes.

The people are safe, he says. They can stay in their houses.

What will happen if the planes don't come?

They will come.

They will come!

They have been issued the UN ultimatum.

If they fail to comply, they will be attacked at 6 a.m. sharp!

They will come for sure. They gave them the ultimatum.

You will be responsible.

Tell him: "You will be responsible

If the Serbs enter the town."

Translate it.

I'm just a piano player.

What did he say?

He says he's just a pianist.

What? - He means, he's just a messenger.

Damn you and your fucking piano!

This meeting is over.

No, it's not over! - Wait, wait, calm down man.

They hold thirty thousand lives in their hands! Don't be crazy.

Hurry up!

Can I take your sneakers? - Yeah.

Pack this.

Come on, hurry up. -I'm coming!

Come on! Come on! - Hurry up!

Take them all!

Are you the mayor? - Yeah

Take him away!

There!

All of them! All!

Check upstairs!

Wait! Please wait! Wait!

Go back! Wait! Wait!

Just go to the main hall!

All wounded to the right!

Take the wounded to the right!

Baho, have you seen my family? - What?

Did you see my family? - They were right behind us when we left.

Where? In the truck? - I don’t know. I don't know if they got on this truck.

What is all this, Aida? What is going on?

- I do not know. I do not know

Well, explain to everybody that we're gonna set up a hospital in the hall over there.

Yes. And we will put the operation room in the tent.

The hospital will be here in this hall, and the surgery room will be there under the tent.

Okay, I want all the beds here. Next to the wall.

All the beds need to go to the wall.

Bring all the medicine you can carry.

Doctor! Hey doctor! There are more wounded left...

Aida, what is he saying?

There are more wounded people back in town, in the hospital's basement.

Tell Karimans there are more wounded in the town's hospital, okay?

Doctor... I don't know where my family is.

Can I go check them? I won't be long.

Is other translator available? - I will look for him, yeah!

Be quick, okay? - Okay!

Tarik, have you seen my family? - No.

Where are yours? -They left thru the woods. Can you give me a cigarette?

What is going on? -I have no idea. No one is saying anything.

Listen, the doctor needs a translator... -I can't, they need me to translate at the gate.

Nermin, have you seen my family? - No, Aida, trust me.

Water...Do you have any water? - No.

Aida! - Aida!

Have you seen my family?

Yes! - Where? - Somewhere down there when we were entering we saw the youngest one.

Aida, what will happen to us? - I do not know.

Aida, my dad and mom were both left outside. They wouldn't let them in.

What? How? - The Dutch have shut the gate, Aida.

What do you mean "shut the gate"? What are you saying?

Mom!

Where are you? - Mom!

Where are the other two? - They didn't let them in.

What? What do you mean? - I entered, but they stayed outside.

What are you saying? - The Dutch closed the gate.

Closed?

Wait for me here. I'll come back!

Nihad!

Hamdija!

Aida!

Yours are over there!

Where? - Back there!

Why are they not letting us in?

Ahmed, have you seen my family?

No, I'm looking for them too. Hamdija and I said we will escape thru the woods.

What woods! If you see him, tell him to stay here!

Maybe I can get you in too. - I don't know, I'm going thru the forest. I don't have a good feeling about this.

Are you crazy? They cannot touch the United Nations.

Go towards the gate!

Oh, for fuck's sake...

Nihad!

Hamdija!

Hamdija!

Mom! -Aida!

Go to the gate! - We can't hear you!

Go to the gate!

Wait for me at the gate!

There?

There has to be more space for sure...

These are my son and my husband. - Can we come too?

Wait a bit. - No. No one else can come inside.

Please, it's my family. - It's not possible. I'm sorry.

I can't give preferential treatment.

If I let them in,everyone else will demand the same thing. No.

What... so what now? - Nothing, just wait here.

- Let us in! -Hey! Hey! Listen...

"The base is full. No one can come inside." Translate!

Guys, the base is full. No one else can enter the base.

How can it be full! There has to be space! They can't just leave us here!

Let us in! Chetnik's are coming!

What's wrong with you? They will kill us all!

Where should all these people go? Where?

Please, Mintjes. Please!

Look, it's bad enough already. Okay?

If I let them inside, everyone will ask to come in-

So let them come inside! - I have my orders.

Greetings to the general!

Great job. Congratulations, boys. - Thank you, General.

Well done, hero!

Are our soldiers still progressing? - Yes, they're cleaning the town.

It's ours!

General!

You can freely go down with the car. It's all clear!

Okay, okay. I know I can.

Let him follow me slowly. - Understood!

Come on, Žile! Come on! Krstich!

Come on, Krle!

Record that flag.

Take the flag down!

I don't want it fluttering here. Get it down. Bring it down.

There so the camera can capture it.

Scan the neighborhood a bit, boys.

Check it. Enter some buildings.

Enter carefuly.

Push forward without stopping!

Take down this board! Selmanagich Reuf's Street...

Take it down.

Climb up, man! Don't make me repeat myself!

Bring it. Stop staring like an idiot!

Straight for Bratuna-Potochari! - Let us greet you General!

Fuck off with the greetings!

Keep moving and then greet me when we reach Bratunac!

Here we are ,on the 11th of July 1995 in Serbian Srebrenica.

On the day of another great Serbian holiday,

We bestow this town as a gift to the Serbian people!

Was there too much of this "Serbian"? - Do not worry. I can edit it.

Did you capture this in the back? - Yes, it's all visible.

Who's shooting? Who the hell is shooting now?!

Krstich, call the United Nations!

If I hear a single more bullet, we will bomb their base! Tell them!

I have 25,000 people here and

No food, no water, and no... no toilets.

No! You listen to me! Listen to me! We need help!

What is the point of having an ultimatum if you don't deliver?

I demand air strikes!

Yes!

Yes.

General Mladich is on the line.

Colonel Karremans? - No, no, no. You can't come in now.

It's urgent! - Please, wait. I will call you, Aida.

Come with me. -But I need to speak with-

I need you now!

Major Franken, my son and husband are at the gate.

They won't let them in. Can you get them in?

- That is not possible. - Please! It's my family.

Can you imagine I let your family in and turn all the others away?

But what if the Serbs reach the base?

How will you keep them safe?

They're not letting us use the toilets.

They say we have to do it here. - Granny, sorry. I'm just a translator here.

But you have to tell them, please!

I can't take it anymore!

General Mladich is looking for civilian representatives from among you

In order to negotiate with him.

Are there any volunteers?

General Mladich is looking for civilian representatives to go and negotiate with him.

Are there any here who would go? Speak up.

Someone will have to represent you.

People! Someone has to go to to the negotiations with the Serbs!

Come on, come out!

Come on people...

No one's here. Maybe they fled thru the forest.

Muharem is here.

He's a company's director. Can he go?

They are suggesting that Muharem goes.

He's a local businessman

I need two more people. Educated.

We need two more but educated.

My husband was the school's headmaster.

If he goes with you, would you let my family come inside the base?

We can't allow anyone else inside.

He is one of the most educated people in Srebrenica.

He speaks German.

You won't find anyone more suitable here.

Can I have two more representatives?

We need two more representatives...

No one wants to do it...

Take my husband. He's the best choice.

Alright.

Find a woman who can join him. - I'll go.

You stay here. They don't want our interpreter.

You can get your husband in but after dark. The last thing I need now is for the crowd to riot.

Okay. Thank you.

Yeah.

Yes, I will.

Okay, who is he?

Aida! Aida!

- This is my husband. -Him? Come forward.

And my son... - How are they allowed in and we're not?

They're going to the negotiations with Mladich. - Can Ahmed come?

Why them? Who chose them? - Just wait, mom. She'll bring us in too...

Can Ahmed come with us?

Easy! Easy!

Gate. The gate!

I don't understand how they expect us to nagotiate anything?

Mladich asked for it.

I don't want to go to him.

Me representing all these people? Who authorized me?

I couldn't get you in any other way. Don't you get it?

Why don't you go?

You know I'm not the right person for this. - They won't let me. They have their own translator.

Get a hold of yourself, man...

When are we supposed to go?

When Mladich calls.

Sejo, what did I say about smoking?

Mom, seriously, god! - Aida, leave the kid alone.

What day is it today? - Who cares?

It's Monday. No! Tuesday.

The eleventh of July.

Eleventh?

My birthday is in two days then...

Mommy's joy!

Not yet!

When all of this is over, every day will be a birthday.

I'm throwing a three day long party for us to celebrate.

We'll roast seven lambs and put up a tent with the music and all.

Leave a thigh for me. I'll enjoy it all the way until autumn.

Can you be a little more quiet?

Aida...

Please see if you can get me out of it somehow?

I don't know what to do- - Nihad!

Translator! Translator!

My water broke...

The water...

Oh, wait, why now?

Breathe, breathe.

Alright, push! Push!

Breathe with me. - You ever delivered a baby?

Never. - And you?

No... - Well that makes three of us.

Push! Why come out now, you silly thing?

You coudln't have picked a better time to come out.

Come on, push, yes!

Yes!

Here we are. We're almost done!

Suspend what?

Where is General Smith?

Well, could someone get to him?

Then give me his deputy!

What extraction plan!?

No! No! What happened to the air strikes?

Where is the Secretary General?

No. No. Surely, not. You have to get me someone to talk to.

They can't all be away.

You are telling me that the entire UN chain of command is vacationing?

What should I do then!?

Call...

Call our government.

What will happen to us?

Do you think we are safe here?

I don’t know where else you'd be safe if not here with us.

My thinking exactly.

What do you want to do when the war is over?

I'll go back to teaching at school.

I'm happiest there. You?

To some other war. I'm be happiest there.

Oh, shut up, this one is already one too many.

Anything to get away from the kids.

Do you have your family here? - Yeah. Two sons.

Sejo is seventeen.

If things were normal, he would be graduating from high school next year.

And Hamdija would be at university by now.

All he cares about is his music.

He's got a band. He wants to be a pop star.

Good choice.

Goes down well with the ladies. Second only to doctors, of course.

Yeah, but girls are crazy about my youngest.

I know all mothers think their children are special,

But he really is.

Hey, there you are. My star!

Why don't you try and get some sleep? - I will.

I'll take over.

Who's translating the negotiations? You or me? - None of us.

Mladich has his own translator.

Good, I was shitting myself.

I wouldn't really wanna get out from here.

Come on, take it.

Take it, it will relax you.

Colonel!

Do you think they will let us go?

My service should have ended back in April.

My girlfriend is pregnant and may give birth at any time...

Do you have children, Colonel? - No.

And you don't have a mistress.

Colonel, what happened about the warning?

They say we do not have to deal with the Serbs.

Everyone's playing dumb

And I'm made into a monster.

Beast.

I will call you a ghoul, with your permission, Commander.

Thank you...

Come on, faster! Faster!

Do you have any weapons? - None. - Go stand there.

You sure? - Yes I'm sure.

And the lady? - I don't have anything.

Come on now... Women are the most dangerous.

Wait here.

Excuse me, but we-. - Shut up!

Follow me!

General, Mladich...

Present here are the representatives of the residents of Srebrenica.

Under Resolution 819, Srebrenica is a safe area

Under protection of the United Nations.

What are you, m'am, by profession?

An economist. I have two children and a grandson.

So young and already a grandma?

Grandma, yes. I was your colleague's here classmate.

In that case, you don't need me? - Yeah...

You can solve the problem.

Could it some high school romance story? - No. We were just close friends.

We didn't know it would come to this. - Well, it came. It came.

It did... -Anela.

- Chamila. - Anila?

Chamila. - Chamila!

Did you have any political functions in Srebrenica? - No.

I was only the boss of the accounting department. I've never been in any political party.

And the gentleman next to you? - I'm called Nihad Selmanagich.

I used to work as a principal in a secondary school in Srebrenica-

A bit louder.

My name is Nihad Selmanagich and

I used to work as a principal in a secondary school in Srebrenica

And I'm a history teacher. - Did you have any political influence?

Neither political nor military. I'm a civilian.

Muharem Jukanovich. Director of a company.

I was never involved in any political activities.

I want to help you.

However, I demand full cooperation from the residents, since your army has been defeated.

There is no need for your people to die.

Neither your husbands, nor your brothers, nor your neighbors.

You can either survive, or perish.

Stand to the other side.

For your survival, I ask...

That all of your armed men,

Even if they commited war crimes;

And a lot of them have, against our people.

To hand over their weapons to the Army of Republika Srpska.

General...

The safety of the civillians is our top priority.

All you need to do is ask.

We will respect each and individual citizen's wish.

You can choose either to stay or, if you want, to leave.

If you want to leave, you're free to express your wish to all 4 sides of the world.

You will just need to provide the fuel. I will provide the vehicles.

Since it's a large number of people.

So it should be...

Dealt with.

If you choose to leave,

In what I have no say,

I have nothing agains it. I'm not bothered by innocent people.

General, if you need the help of my soldiers, they are ready to assist you.

Thank you for your offer.

... But we have no fuel. We have no fuel.

We haven't received any supplies since February.

I will provide it.

You can tell your Ministry of Defense that your army is safe.

And that your forces will not be attacked.

Historian!

Come on, relax, man. It would be better for all of you to leave, right?

General...

The United Nations will provide escorts for the buses

And we will make up an evacuation plan.

You make the plan, and I'll provide the vehicles.

As a man... and as a general...

I guarantee the safety of each innocent person.

Give us some drinks. We need a toast! Get some soda as well for me.

Where is your commander?

Where is your commander?

He's in a meeting with your General...

Civilians inside? - Yes. Yes.

How many? - About four or five thousand.

Soldiers? - No soldiers.

No soldiers...

He says there are no soldiers, son of a bitch...

I want inside. - Our commander is not here.

But I'm here! I want there!

Okay? - Wait. Wait...

What? - Look at her.

Come on! Come on! Come on!

Hi!

We want to see if any Muslim soldiers are hiding inside.

There are no soldiers. Only civilians.

Who asked you to speak!?

I want to see with my eyes.

Sir, This is a UN compound. You can't come inside as you please.

Especially not armed. - Commadant, it's Joka.

Give us the main guy, this one is not letting us in.

Speak English

Speak in English!

Yes, I have to speak English.

Let them search the base, so they can see for themselves that there are no Bosnian soldiers.

Colonel, no armed military personnel are allowed inside the safe zone.

Let alone, inside our base!

They just want to check if there are any soldiers.

If you let them in with weapons, people will panic.

Contain it. -It's not allowed!

I am ordering you to let them in.

Over.

Fuck...

Thank you.

Stay calm!

They're only here to make sure no one is armed.

Everything is under control!

Hell! What a pigsty! Disgusting.

There are men. Searching.

What happened to your hand? - I was chopping wood.

Choping wood?

Where is your uniform?

We are civilians - Civilians?

So who have we been fighting then for the past three years, you sons of bitches! Who!?

All are civilians!

Weapons? - I don't have any.

Nothing? - None, I swear.

Listen here!

Does anyone have any weapons? - No.

If I find even a bullet...

.. A single bullet!

I will personally make sure you meet your end. Understand me?

Yes. - Louder!

Yeah!

Do you have weapons? - No.

And you? - No.

And you? - No I...

Get up when you're talking with a Serbian solider!

Get over here!

Did you kill any Serbs? - No.

And why not? Are you some sort of a pussy?

He wasn't in the army.

Look at this. Who asked you anything?

Little baby. Baby, baby...

Why is this baby crying? - She's hungry.

Hungry? Don't you have anything to eat here?

We don't? -No?

Right... You want these people to starve to death and then say the Serbs killed them?

Sons of whores!

Pavle! - Yeah!

Bring the people bread. - Understood!

I checked the place. There are no soldiers, it's free.

Are you done?

Leave everything. Take only your backpacks.

Just the backpacks, you hear me? Let's go.

Here!

We should have fled to the forest. You never listen! The smart ones left thru the forest.

Those who went thru the woods will fall directly into Chetnik's hands.

I will die if I stay here. I need to run from here.

We should take the weapons from the UN fighters, huh? - What weapons? What are you talking about?

Never even think about it again, you hear me!

Get in here, come on! Come on!

Let's go, now!

Right Now!

Staff only allowed here. They cannot be here.

Serbian soldiers are inside the base.

What? - Franken let them in.

I need to hide them. My husband went to negotiate with Mladich.

Civilians are not permitted to be here. - Just for a short while.

They can stay in that room. - This is the office of military observers!

It is not a place for civilians. - But the Serbs are inside the base, fully armed!

You won't know they're here. They'll be in no one's way.

Please, Peter...

Okay... Just for a while, okay?

Yes. - Okay.

Thanks.

Good. Okay. Sit.

Here. Sit down.

Sejo, sit here.

There. I'll be back. - I have to get out of here.

What are you saying, Hamdija? You're safe here.

Come on. We are safe here.

No, we're not. They will kill us all. -No, stop. Don't speak like that.

They will kill us all. - Stop speaking nonsense.

They'll kill us all. -Stop!

They will kill us all! - They'll throw us out...

We're not little kids for you to drag us around. Everything just has to be as you say.

Stop it. - We don't get a say in anything.

How could you send father to Mladich so easily? - I said stop it!

Aida?

Do you need anything? - Yeah... pills.

Take this.

Hamdija...

Son... It will be okay.

Hamdija... Hamdija, dear.

Take care of your brother.

Invite people to a meeting.

What happened? - The civilians will be taken to a safe place.

So we're not going back to Srebrenica? - He said if anyone wants, they can.

If anyone wants? Don't you see this was all just a show? - What was a show?

Please! If he wanted to kill us he would've done it already. Why would he call us? Why would he talk to us?

Why would he negotiate with us? - What exactly did we even negotiate?

He made his plan a long time ago. - People are going there where it's safe. That's what.

I can't stand stupid women like this! - Nihad!

Hold on! Take it easy.

Don't be afraid.

You will be transferred to Kladanj.

Let the women and children leave first.

Just without panic and let the little kids and women go first!

We don't want any child to be lost.

Do not worry. No one will harm you.

Thank you, General.

What is your name, kid? - Jasmin.

Here. This is for you. I'll leave it here for you.

Can we have some? Please. - Here.

Leave my cow alone!

It's all I have left! - The cow is in good hands!

Quickly! Quickly!

Men on the other side.

But she's my wife! - We want to interrogate you a little first.

If you didn't kill any Serbs you can take the other bus! - Where are you taking him? Leave him alone!

Zulfa! Zulfa! Give him back!

Slow down! They're not potatoes!

Shut up!

Come on, let's go!

Faster!

Put your hands up!

Come on! Hurry up!

General!

General Mladich!

The deal was that the buses would be escorted by us!

And that each person could choose whether they want to leave!

We haven't even made up an evacuation plan yet!

Where is your plan?

We haven't had the chance to make one.

Is that my problem?

We haven't even registered them yet. Where are the buses going?

You can set an escort for each of buses.

Nobody is forbidding that.

Let your army enter each bus.

But the deal was-

Men go with me! - No!

Mom! No!

Leave him! Bring my son back to me!

The soldiers saw nine bodies behind the base. They're killing the men. - What?

We're done for. They're interrogating the men and killing them, right there not two hundred meters from the base.

How do you know? - I just heard them say it to Karremans.

Is Karremans there? - No.

Where is he? - I do not know.

Colonel Karremans!

Colonel Karremans!

Go see Major Franken!

No, we must speak to you.

They are killing people outside.

Open the door!

No... it is Franken who is...

You must do something!

Colonel Karremans! - Leave me alone!

Open the door!

Open...

Does anyone know what's going on here?

Have you called the UN in New York?

Don't make this any more complicated than it already is.

I'm trying to do what I can.

You promised us that the Serbs would not enter the town,

That you would protect us! - I don't promise anything.

I'm doing as much as I can. - Srebrenica is a UN safe zone. Your duty is to protect these people!

Where are they taking them? Does anyone know?

My men are on the orders to control the situation of the buses.

I'm doing everything within my power.

Now, please, leave. I've got work to do.

And get on with your own work! Instead of spreading rumors...

What did he say? Translate.

We will leave with the Dutch.

You just need to keep an eye on Hamdija. He got really scared.

I'm the worst coward.

What are you saying...

If we managed to survive three and a half years of war, we can survive this too.

As long as we're together.

You Muslim daughters of whores!

Whores!

Oh, professor! Come, let's hang out for a bit!

Don't worry. We won't do anything! - No, thanks. I'm all good over here.

This was my prof in high school. - Yes.

Be respectable.

Where is Hamdija?

He's not here, he's gone thru the woods.

So how's your mother doing, Beli? - She's fine. Fine.

Say hello to her from me, will you? - I will, professor. You say hello to your sons.

Especially little Hamdija.

See you later, alligator.

Attention Please!

The evacuation of the civilians outside the base is complete.

They've been taken to Kladanj.

Which is under control of the Bosnian army. They are safe.

It's your turn now!

You can start leaving in groups of five to board the buses.

Who gave the orders for this? Why can't we go home to Srebrenica?

Start leaving the base in an orderly fashion!

In groups of five! - It's not safe. Who will go with us?

Tell them. In groups of five.

Aida, translate. Translate everything I said!

Translate!

The evacuation of refugees outside has been completed.

Now, it's your turn...

You can start leaving the base in groups of five.

Thank god, all this is finally over!

Hamdija?

Hamdija?

What? - What's up?

Nothing.

My head... - Your head?

Want me to hit you so it stops?

Remove all sharp objects from your pockets and bags.

Throw them into these containers.

Under no circumstance are you permitted

to be in possesion of any sharp objects.

Anything sharp...

Scissors. Pencils. Pens.

What are you doing? - Who knows who they hold a grudge against on all these pictures.

Dad should get rid of his diary. - Where is it?

Even that? - Give it here.

I've written about nearly every day of the war.

Three and a half years of our life! - Nihad!

Aida?

What? - What is your ID number?

What did you say? I can't hear you. - The number. What's your UN card number?

421. Why do you need it?

What's this? - The list.

They can't read our names so they wanted me to type it out.

What names?

Of those who will be on the Dutch convoy once we move.

You're on the list too. - And my family?

No. - How? Well, add them.

Come on. - Ask him first.

Peter, please add my family to the list - UN employees only.

The Serbs don't know who works for the UN. - They want to see ID cards.

We'll make them cards. - I don't have a machine here.

Who does? - I do not know.

I think Ekbers makes them.

- Ekbers? - Yes.

Hamdija, Sead and Nihad.

Is Ekbers here? - No. There to the left.

Ekbers? - Yes?

Where is the machine?

What machine? - To make ID cards.

Is this the machine? - No. It's that one.

It's broken.

I told you it was broken.

Hey! Fuck... He crossed them off the list.

Here.

It's not up to me.

Aida!

You can't go in. -It's urgent.

There is a meeting! - It's urgent!

Why have you taken my family off the list? - You can't just barge in and interrupt a meeting.

- Out! - Please! Put my family on the list.

We are dealing with lives of thousands people right now.

If I add their names, I'll be jeopardising the safety of all those with UN identity cards.

You want me to put other people's lives at risk?

Franken, I beg you. Don't send them out there.

Here, you can take off my name.

Aida, I'll make sure your sons will leave here safely.

Now, please, let us get on with our work.

Wil you put them on the list? - I will do my best.

Push them in! Faster!

Come on!

All unauthorized personel must now leave the UN base.

We are on the list.

What names? - Selmanagich Sead, Hamdija,

Nihad and Aida. - Selmanagich?

Selmanagich.

Only your name is on the list, so, they have to leave.

No. No. Please check again.

Yeah.

I'm sorry, we have to empty the base.

It's an order. - They are not leaving.

Wha...?

Please don't make me use force- - Use it!

What difference does it make whether the Serbs kill us or you do?

Franken told me they would be on the list! - Well, they're not on the list!

Then the list is wrong. - Franken gave me this list.

I was just with him.

Your list isn't up to date. We are staying. Ask Major Franken!

They are not on this list. - Didn't you hear what I said?

- Okay, you! - Stop it! De Haan, help me!

We're on the list!

Well, check it out again! - We're on the list!

We are on the list!

Stay here and don't move.

Oh, neighbors! - Hey, Mitar.

Listen, dear, you go there and you're coming with me.

Neighbor, why are you taking him? - Don't worry, dear, he'll come after you.

No, don't! I beg you! Please don't take him! - Leave me alone!

- Let's go! - Please! Don't touch him! Please!

Besim!

Besim!

Can you take my sons from the base, please?

Please! - Aida, the Serbs will kill them if they find them.

They'll kill me too.

Try to hide them in one of the trucks.

I'm sorry

They can hide under boxes.

And if the Serbs find them... at least we tried.

There's no room for that. We're just full packed, you know?

Doctor! I need you to take my sons with you.

What? - I need you to take my sons with you.

I can shoot them in the foot.

Three trucks of wounded have left,

Not a single one has reached the hospital

And I have a very bad feeling about it.

They've just taken them.

Come here.

I'm taking them to see Karremans.

Aida, take him with you, please!

I beg you!

Here!

Come on! Down there, Nihad. - It's too visible here.

I will come back to you.

Come.

Men to the left, women to the right!

Come on! Come on! Faster!

Give me this!

Hurry up, people!

Hey! Hey, that's a man!

No! No!

No! Please. Don't! He's just a kid!

What the hell are you doing?

Who ordered you to do that?

Samir! Samir! Give him back! Where are you taking him?

This is an independent TV station from Belgrade.

Can you tell us what is going on?

You know what's going on. You know very well what's going on.

Good evening!

How are you? - Fine.

How are they treating you?

Good evening!

Are you too hot?

Do you know who I am?

- This is General Mladich. - Shut up, you!

Your job is to drive. Get rid of the cigarette.

You heard a lot about me and now you finally see me.

I'm not like they told you in these stories.

Right?

I am saving you!

Record them, not me.

You will be transported safely to Kladanj!

I'm gifting you life and forgiving you for everything.

I wish you a good trip. - Thank you.

I'm sorry it came to this,

But some among you are to blame- not me!

I wish you luck and let's not fight anymore!

Good luck children! Grow up in peace!

Leave my kid alone!

Let me go!

Aida!

Mom!

What are you doing?

Leave my kids alone!

Leave my kids alone!

Aida! Calm down. - Leave my kids alone!

Calm down! Calm down! - Leave my kids alone!

Calm down! Calm down.

Aida, tell your husband he can stay.

They can stay? - No. Your husband.

I've put him down as the official representative of fugitives.

For his work in the negotiations. - And our sons?

That's not possible.

Why is it not possible?

Why?

We stick to the rules here.

So, it's his choice. He can stay or leave.

He says only you can stay because you were at the negotiations.

Put my sons on the list instead of me. - Please, take our sons instead.

I've made myself pretty clear here. They're not on the list.

I beg you.

Put at least one son on the list.

Please. Put at least one of them on the list!

I beg you.

At least put one of them on the list...

Please.

You're asking me to do the impossible

They're taking them to Kladanj, Aida. - Frank.

- They will be perfectly safe. - Franken, please! Don't send my sons away.

Franken, I beg you! I beg you, Franken.

- Let them stay. - That's... that's all I can do.

Franken, let them stay, Franken. I beg you! - It's all I can do...

Please Franken, let them stay! - Stop begging him!

Franken!

I'm coming with you! -No! No! You can stay so you stay!

Do not worry. I'll be with them. Everything will be alright.

I'll go with you! - Everything will be fine. Do not worry.

- Everything will be fine. - I'll go with you!

I'll go with them!

Stay here!

Don't go there! - Leave me!

Don't go there.

Don't! They're mine!

You can't come out here, professor!

Go back to the base or else they'll put you on a bus!

Leave them alone!

Sejo!

Hamdija!

Where are you taking them? - How would I know...

Don't...

Don't!

No!

Throw all personal documents here!

Your hands above your heads!

Fucking Turks!

Now you'll watch a movie! Come on! Faster!

What are you staring at?

The movie is about to start! Get out! Get out!

The door!

The door!

Yeah? - Good evening.

I'm Aida Selmanagich.

Come in.

You don't have to take your shoes off. Please.

Here.

Coffee?

Here.

I just made some cake for the kids, too. If you'd like some.

Try the cake... even tho it's still a bit hot.

Did you happen to, maybe, find any of pictures?

I did.

I kept them. They're under the sofa.

These are your things.

Well... what's left of them.

Thank you.

Nobody has asked about this apartment in years,

So we assumed that the owners were dead.

They told us you'd come back to teach at the school?

Yes. - Our son is in first grade.

Nikola!

Nikola!

Sone. Come, say hello!

Hi!

And I... can't seem to find the bodies of my kids.

And my husband...

Nobody wants to tell us where they burried them.

Please, move out as soon as you can.

I don't know how good this will be for you. - And what do you mean by good?

I mean safe. - I have nothing left to lose.

Good day. - Good day.

Come, take this. Who's that waiting for me at the door? Who is that, huh?

Mommy's joy...

Mom!

For the women of Srebrenica and their 8372 killed sons, fathers, husbands, brothers, cousins, neighbours...
