Synopsis:
During their residency in Kosovo, directors Meray Diner and Dafina Daka uncovered harrowing accounts of sexual violence used systematically as a weapon of war. More than physical assault, these acts were aimed at breaking families and silencing generations.
Na Thojshin Lutko Moja draws on the testimonies of Kosovar women survivors to explore the hidden emotional aftermath shame, isolation, and the cost of breaking the silence. The film reclaims a collective memory often denied, offering a powerful portrait of resilience.
This film is produced during the 'Breaking Borders' Residency Program, a partnership between DokuFest and the Scottish Documentary Institute, supported by the British Council’s International Collaborative Grants.
