Periskopi(7 years ago)
(7 years ago)Serbian director Boris Malagurski has returned to the spotlight recently, following his release to American cinemas in his documentary about NATO bombings in Kosovo. In some New York cinemas, the film was met with protests by Albanians, because according to them Boris misused in his film Albanians, giving [...]
In the exclusive interview for windows.net, Boris flatly denies this, even stressing that Albanians and Serbs are victims of NATO, which he calls invaders, along with the US and the EU. He says that the documentary focused on the mass use of poor uranium during NATO bombings, which has led to triple cancer cases in Kosovo and Serbia, he claims.
"The Weather of Chains 3" is titled the documentary of 31-year-old director and activist, who claims in conversation with journalist Kozeta Turte, in New York, that he is shocked to see people protest something they haven't seen.
He next speaks of his visit to Korca this summer, while stressing that Albanians must understand that “the host” goes and comes, but the neighbour is always there.
Boris, was born in 1988 in the northern Serbian town of Subotica, into an intellectual family of two academic parents.
He's finished research for film records at the University of Great Britain “Columbia” and Canada, where he built and built his professional lifestyle by establishing the cinematographic company “Malagurski Cinma”. His documentary film is currently being shown in several American states from New York, Toronto, Chicago, Las Vegas, Miami, Washington, etc.
Windows.net: How did you start work on your documentary “The Night of Chains 3л and where did you include Albania and Kosovo?
I don't mention Albania in this movie, but I talked about NATO and the use of impoverished uranium throughout Serbia, including Kosovo.
In fact, Kosovo was heavily bombed by NATO-poor uranium.
This has led to increased cancer cases in both Serbs and Albanians. According to intelligence sources, cases of cancer in Kosovo Albanians have tripled since 1999. That fact shows that NATO, in fact, was not meant to help Albanians, but simply to conquer the land. Just ask yourself the question: If Kosovo is independent, can it do something independently from the US and Europe?
Windows.net: Do you think Albanians misunderstood the fact that you mention the two countries in your documentary?
I don't deal with Albania, but the fact that people protest a movie without seeing it is beyond my imagination. Albanians for me are just as victims of NATO and its ruling policies. Albanian political elites are promoting anti-Serb sentiment to hide the fact that Albanians are also colonised by the West. You find this evidence in New York. An organisation has staged a protest against a film they know nothing about. The only thing they know is that a Serb made the movie and that's enough reason to protest. Isn't it all crazy?
Windows.net: That was a few days ago when you promoted the film to one of New York's cinemas. In fact, it seems that you have tried to provoke, by presenting Albanians in a negative role. How true is this?
I emphasized it earlier than I am shocked to see people protesting something they haven't seen. It's too superficial. One of the protesters had even attacked the audience and had been arrested by police. Albanians who participate in such a thing give themselves a bad name, not me.
