Canadian Premiere

This film reveals the horror of the 1998-99 Kosova war. Torture, murder, rape, committed against women and children in particular, were part of Milosevic’s military strategy. The filmmaker illuminates the immediacy of the peoples’ suffering, and the ongoing nature of their struggles in Kosova. Eight years after UN’s intervention, women and children are still the ones suffering.

Selections
2007 Titanic Budapest International Film Festival ; 2007 Brooklyn International Film Festival (Brooklyn, USA) ; 2007 Milano Film Festival (Milan Italie).

Nuhi de Stani
Albanian Macedonian, Nuhi de Stani is a filmmaker based in San Francisco. He began the research for My Blood My Compromise in 2002 by visiting Kosova and conducting preliminary interviews. To better prepare himself with the delicate issues of rape, Nuhi volunteered at the San Jose YWCA Rape Crisis Center in California. Nuhi plans to donate 90% of profits made through his first feature documentary to the women and children of Kosova.
