“Gazela-Temporary Shelter from 100 to 500 Years” researches the displacement of over 1000 people that lived in the Roma mahala at Gazela Bridge near Staro Sajmište in Belgrade in August 2009. Some of the families were resettled to container camps in the outskirts of Belgrade, far away from the city. Others were returned to the poor south of Serbia they had escaped from, some built new barracks at alternative locations in Belgrade. The city authorities announced new demolitions of Roma settlements.
All interviews and locations are authentic. The movie was recorded in November 2009 in Belgrade (Gazela Bridge), New Belgrade (Block 67), Makiš, Kijevo, Bojnik, Leskovac, Lebane, Novi Sad and Jagodina.

Belleville (Belville) is the name of a residential complex at New Belgrade being built on the occasion of the international sports manifestation “Summer Universiade 2009”. On 3rd of April 2009 in the early morning, diggers tore down the barracks of 45 families living in close vicinity to the residential units. Their violent eviction was assisted by police without giving time to the residents to save their belongings. Despite Serbia holding the presidency of the “Decade of Roma Inclusion” in year 2009, the authorities didn’t offer alternative housing to the families. The video documents the protest of the victims that set off to the city center three times to demand shelter in front of the city hall.

I Will Never Talk About the War Again* brings artistic and theoretical positions that focus on social analysis, the state of the human psyche and testimonies of trauma connected with recent wars and violence in the countries of the former Yugoslavia. The works by artists from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Serbia, Croatia and Russia show complex post war processes and confront the societies critically with their past and their collective trauma of war.
Can contemporary artistic practice find a language with which it is possible to speak politically about individual and collective war and post-war experiences? Is it possible to find an adequate artistic expression, and is it always necessary to create empathy in the process of understanding? Silence and amnesia are the most common reactions to trauma; does art in this sense actually also remain silent by using only the symbolic language of images and sounds, staying in the field of mediation and symbolism?
The exhibition is accompanied by a catalog including essays by Cecilia Sjöholm, professor in aesthetics at Södertörns University; Sezgin Boynik, sociologist and PhD candidate at Jyväskylä University, Finland and Šefik Tatlić, theoretician with MA in Journalism and PhD candidate at the University in Zagreb, Croatia.
Šefik Tatlić expressed the whish to distance himself publicly from the essay by Cecilia Sjöholm.
