'Lexicon'

Documentary TV series 'Lexicon' was broadcast by 4 TV stations in the region of former Yugoslavia: 


- Federation TV of Bosnia and Herzegovina
- Alternativna TV, Bosnia and Herzegovina  Republika Srpska
- Radio Television of Serbia 
- TV Studio B, a local Belgrade TV station


In 2005, the author of 'Lexicon', Valentina Delić, received the annual UNICEF award for the series.

The goal of the series was to counter negative stereotypes of people of different nationalities created by the media and politics throughout the 90s. This is done in each episode by following two young people who grew up on different sides of the border during the war and the crisis in ex-Yugoslavia and who are now crossing the border to share their personal stories and experiences about childhood during times of the 1990s with each other.  The participants came from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Macedonia and Serbia. 
                                                        Dado (Gornji Vakuf - Uskoplje) and Slobodan (Vranje)
                                                         a scene from the documentary TV series 'Lexicon'




The production of 'Lexicon' was supported by the Fund for an Open Society, Serbia, Balkan Trust for Democracy, the Government of Great Britain, and Freedom House by funds of Charles Stewart Mott Foundation.

  'World Championship'

A documentary film by Valentina Delić (70') follows Goran-Tuta, a railway worker, who left his home in Kosovo after the war of 1999. Altough he was told that he is not a refugee, but an 'internally displaced person', he does not see a difference between the terms.

In the summer of 2007, Tuta and his seven soccer-playing friends represented Serbia at The Homeless World Cup in Copenhagen. Five of Tuta’s team buddies live in the Serb enclaves in Kosovo, while two of them live in the Collective center for internally displaced persons in the town Kraljevo, central Serbia.
.Parallel to The Homeless World Cup, another world championship is taking place with George in Washington and Vladimir in Moscow disputing over the future of Kosovo. Tuta's team is waiting impatiently for the solution.

The Film Center of Serbia included this film in the catalogue of Serbia for the 2009 Cannes Film Festival.

This film was supported by the Department for Culture of the City of Belgrade.
