Description

It happened in the heart of Europe, a two-hour flight from Barcelona. Here we enjoyed the Olympic euphoria, while in Sarajevo they had experienced it some years earlier. Suddenly, the television gave us images of the concentration camps in Bosnia and Herzegovina, mixed with the count of Olympic medals in Barcelona. November 2020 will mark 25 years since the official end of that war, in which between 25,000 and 50,000 girls and women were raped as an ethnic cleansing strategy. The spotlights and cameras are gone. But has the war ended for the survivors and for the sons and daughters born of those rapes?

The story of the survivors of sexual violence in the Balkan War in dialogue with an autofiction by the playwright Anna Maria Ricart Codina and the Cultura i Conflicte team.
