Contents Summary
Filmed between 1999 and 2001, Returning Home documents the return of the internally displaced Muslims or Bosniaks to their homes seven years after being expelled from an ethnically mixed (Bosniak-Croat) village in central Bosnia. The film is a sequel to We Are All Neighbours, produced in 1993 by Granada Television in co-operation with Tone Bringa. The earlier film chronicles the breakdown in personal relationships between Muslims and Croats, and eventually the expulsion of the Muslim population, and the destruction of their homes by Croat (HVO) forces as war overtook the village of Dolina. Returning Home shows how the dream of getting back to their village was a constant in the refugees' lives. Following some of the same families featured in the 1993 film, this film highlights the significant contribution of the United Nations (OHR), the European Union and other foreign donors in making possible the returns. Above all, however, the film talks of the determination and will of the displaced villagers to rebuild their pre-war lives. Surprisingly the film also shows Bosniak refugees finding common understanding with the Croat refugees who had taken over their homes, based on shared experiences of being displaced.
