| description | This film features Jandranka Cigelj, a Bosnian Croat attorney from Prijedor, who was in Omarska and now gathers testimony of survivors to assist the International War Crimes Tribunal in The Hague. She and Nusreta Sivac, a Muslim judge also from Prijedor, work together to document what they and other women like them endured in the war. Roy Gutman, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, mentions rape incidents in Foca, where women were raped in the sports hall located right next to the police station. Interviews with many women are conducted, detailing their experiences of rape, torture, and maltreatment during the war. |
