This project aimed to:

  • Train young people in documentary filmmaking; 
  • To encourage creative expression among Balkan young generation, especially in the specific area of Kosovo and its neighbouring regions;
  • To promote mutual understanding and intercultural dialogue;
  • To develop long-term partnerships between young European and Balkan artists.

Concretely, DOKO YOMI consisted in a filmmaking workshop and training for 15 young adults. It took place in Mitrovica from the 8th to the 22nd of October 2006. The tutors were 5 European filmmakers: Baudouin Koenig (France), Emilia Lehtinen (Finland), Giorgio Cordeschi (Italy), Maya Puig Boedler (Germany), and Nikita Sutyrin (Russia).
