An often overlooked topic.......
dpealow14 April 2003
A very well done documentary that explains the tragic fate that many Bosnian Muslims suffered due to UN and Dutch impotence, as told through heart-wrenching recollections from survivors and from actual video footage from the incidents. A very worthwhile watch.

Not a massacre, a genocide
c-dereli17 February 2008
Warning: Spoilers
A documentary actually shot by Serbians handy cam... Showing bargaining with Dutch UN staff in order to deliver Bosnians to them... Delivery and very detailed planned killing thousands of them, in just few days ... Most disturbing than this watching Dutch UN soldiers, celebrating and dancing... That really makes me sick!

But do you know what's more striking after all?: Serbs are living in Srebrenica now...

Documentary aired in US by PBS just two times, after this, unlike other documentaries broad casted by PBS it was stop. And unlike other documentaries which are for sale on the website this one isn't...

Documentary might help you to understand how much Serbians hate Bosnians and the genocide actually are not as a result of few Politicians and soldiers but actually the Serbian society...

Accepting the Serbia to EU while still protecting the war criminals, might be suicide pills for Europeans...

The Cry Of The Innocents
AnAndalusianDog21 February 2013
A Cry from the Grave tells the story of the Srebrenica massacre of 1995, in which the Bosnian Serb army killed an estimated 7,000 Bosnian Muslims. It follows hour by hour the story of the killings. Through the testimony of survivors and relatives of those who died it explores the pain felt when no one is brought to justice.There are interviews with investigators from the UN-sponsored court at The Hague and from the UN special prosecutor. But the underlying message of the film is bleak indeed - no matter what is done, it will never be enough. A Cry from the Grave has won numerous prizes. It has been shown at the UN, and it was used during a war crimes trial at The Hague.

Trash!
bluhartsrpkinja99 July 2018
One of many BBC trash mockumentary. Not a single evidence of this so-called ''movie''.The movie ''Borat'' have more convincing approach.''Director'' of this trash ''E'' list ''film'' is leading BBC version of Leni Riefensthal. Ordinary british washed up propaganda.
