The media played a vital role in starting the war in former Yugoslavia spreading the hate speech and continued to do so after the war, especially manipulating strong verbal and visual power of television in a chaotic climate through hundreds of television channels. In post-conflict Bosnia and Herzegovina, the international community concentrated on the reconstruction of the media, aiming sustainable peace and democratic stability. European Union supports the public broadcasting system and the United States of America supports the commercial television system in Bosnia nad Herzegovina. The film explores the current and the past experiences through in-depth interviews with television professionals, representatives of international community and representatives of media research institutes in Sarajevo.
