MATRA/KNIP project from 2009 :
Heritage for the Future
Co-sponsored by OSCE mission in Serbia

"Heritage for the future" examines the stark difference between the natural beauty of the Serbian landscape and environmental hotspots in industrial areas. Seen from the perspective of three teenagers, the film's underlying message is that environmental action greatly depends on the engagement of civil society, particularly youth and their role in advocating for environmentally responsible behaviour.
