BIOGRAPHY:

Sahin Sisic was born in 1961 in Visegrad, Bosnia. He directed his first short

film “Margina 88” and won The Golden Fipa Award at Cannes, France in 1989.

In 1992/1993 during the Yugoslav war he filmed in the capital of Bosnia,

Sarajevo. This resulted in the film “Planet Sarajevo”. This work portrays

almost without words the near impossibility of living a normal life while under

the threat of rocket launchers and snipers. The New York Times and Herald

Tribune International considered “The Planet Sarajevo” a masterpiece, May,

August 1994. “Planet Sarajevo” received many awards.

THE TRUTH CANNOT BE HIDDEN – Srebrenica 1995-2025

This is one mans story of his escape from genocide, surviving against evil and nature

and his message to the world.

After a daring escape from a firing squad, Kadir Habibovic is lost in the woods on the

brink of death. He climbs to the top of Mount Udrch and in a miraculous moment, he

hears a voice calling him… An incredible true story of survival, July 1995, Bosnia.

Those who committed evil and genocide in Bosnia from 1992 to 1995 are trying to cover

up these evils or openly deny genocide in Srebrenica. Many surviving witnesses of the

war time in Bosnia have remained silent, only those with courage have dared to speak

out and write about their ordeal. One of them is Kadir Habibović, born in Srebrenica,

and he is a key witness of the tragedy of Srebrenica. All the horror of Srebrenica Kadir

Habibovic watched and painful memories forced him to write a book Life Against Death:

Srebrenica. By reading his book, I thought about the greatest depths of consciousness

of the human race, which makes huge crimes and kills other people. Another important

motif that was tied to Kadirs book was his confession. The way of telling this amazing

story seems like a modern horror movie where Kadir is a real hero – because he just

survived a massacre in Srebrenica and he brought out the book, his duty to the public.
