Srebrenica

Caption: Srebrenica, may 2002.
Ferrier and Howa Becovic ,56 and 60 years old, are back into their pre war home near Cace Srebrenica, since their home and their neighbors homes are all burn down and bombed, they live and sleep on the concreet in their former garage, while holes in the wall has been covered with wood.
They can start rebuilding next summer and so have survive the winter, in the meanwhile they work the land (that might be mined) and claim they are lucky since most of their neighbors have been killed.

In the territory of Srebrenica slowly Muslims are trying to go back to their pre-war homes.
Most of these families lost several members of their family during the 1995 Srebrenica enclave deportations by Serb army and find their homes taken over by Serbian refugees who fled mostly from the Sarayevo district, since the law of Republic Srbska allows Serbs refugees to stay in these houses, returnees find themselves without any place to stay in the same town where the killers of their relatives may walk around.
