Contents/Summary

Summary
Day and night, Shida tirelessly draws portraits of her five sons, currently reported missing. Like thousands of other women in Srebrenica, she lives in her dreams and takes part in the protests demanding that justice be done. For the first time in History, a large-scale initiative has been launched to search for the 27.731 people who went missing during the war in Bosnia-Herzegovinia. “Earth promised Sky” portrays the painful process of searching for and identifying the bodies through the personnal accounts of Eva, Amor and Jasna. They attempt to go to beyond the horror of it all by returning human beings their dignity and doing them justice.
