description Duration: 00:52:00 After the breakdown of Yugoslavia, in the summer of 1995, 8000 Bosnian Muslim men and boys were murdered in and around Srebrenica region by Serbian forces. These forces included the Scorpions, a Serbian paramilitary unit active in Serbia, Bosnia and Kosovo. The Scorpions filmed their activities, including the murder of six Bosnian Muslim civilians. This footage (and related evidence) was subsequently used in the war crimes trials of the Scorpions unit in The Hague and Serbia. The documentary uses the footage filmed by the perpetrators, together with statements of former members and materials recorded by the unit itself in the course of its campaigns, to cast light on the military and individual dimension of the crimes committed.
