Life in Uzun Mirkova
The short documentary film “Life in Uzun Mirkova” shows the problems faced by internally displaced persons – beneficiaries of social housing settlement in Uzun Mirkova Street in Požarevac. Using the example of this settlement, the film illustrates the wider problem of the unsustainability of existing models of social housing in sheltered conditions and their unaffordability for those who are most vulnerable.
Salvatore
“Salvatore” is a movie about Roma men and women who are living in the city of Bujanovac, in the last collective centre in Serbia, 20 years after they were internally displaced from Kosovo.
This movie was created under the “Improved local integration of internally displaced persons through enhanced access to social rights” project funded by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR).

This movie was created with the support of Olof Palme International Center.
