"My generation has to deal with how to overcome a trauma, how to overcome destruction, and how to tel..." — Jasmila Zbanic

I want to create films that will speak to different parts of our hearts and brains, stories told from a different angle.

If you love your film, you have to fight for it.

In my country, though it is very patriarchal and male-dominated, the public enjoys women-directed movies.

As a woman filmmaker in Bosnia, I have more privileges than disadvantages. I feel I can do more than my male colleagues with a motherly approach rather than a male approach.
