INDEX
Selma Mahmutovic
Dove of Peace, Embrace the Colors, Selma's Heart
DOB: May 5, 1985, Sarajevo
BEFORE THE WAR:
"I remember so many beautiful things, even though I was little. I remember the time when I went with my parents to the zoo in Sarajevo. Childhood and the life that used to be wonderful before the war are only important when the person grows up. Then they change and don't understand the mind of a child anymore."
DURING THE WAR:
"I remember everything from this period. The worst memory was and still is the massacre in the city market Vase Miskin - Markale. My father was wounded then. I was only 6 years old when that happened. And of course, there is food - this was something that everybody needed to stay alive."
WHAT YOU MOST WANT TO LEARN, SEE, DO:
"At first I will try to become a student at the Academy for Fine Arts. I want to see the wonders of the world, but I would like to do everything with my very special friends."
A MESSAGE FOR PEOPLE OUTSIDE BOSNIA:
"When you truly desire something and you're trying to achieve a goal, you will make it. Everything is worth trying."
