Festival “Mirëdita, dobar dan!” ended with prize award to director Ognjen Glavonić who, through his movies “Depth 2” and “The Load”, broke “the shameful oath of silence” about a mass grave in Batajnica, and thus made a huge step in bringing Serbian and Kosovo societies closer to each other.
“In Kosovo, there is a collective consciousness of all nations regarding the protection of cultural heritage and monuments, while politicians are trying to divide that heritage according to ethnicity into Serbian and Albanian” is a message of the debate “Kosovo – Memory Heritage” on the second day of the “Mirëdita, dobar dan” Festival at the Centre for Cultural Decontamination in Belgrade.
“Without co-operation and dialogue of people from Belgrade and Priština, we will keep being blown by the winds of hatred and nationalism” is a message under which the “Miredita, dobar dan” Festival was opened today, with all epidemiological measures respected.
