Kosovo: Can You Imagine? is a 2009 documentary film directed by Serbian Canadian Boris Malagurski about the plight of Serb communities living in Kosovo at the time the documentary was filmed. Former Canadian general Lewis MacKenzie, former Canadian diplomat James Byron Bissett, former UNMIK officer John Hawthorne and economist Michel Chossudovsky appear in the film.

Synopsis

The film gives a brief account of Kosovo's history, starting from the Battle of Kosovo, up to the current UN administration, which has existed since 1999, when, NATO bombed Yugoslavia for 78 days to halt a Serbian crackdown on ethnic Albanian separatism in its province of Kosovo. It includes commentary on the rights that Kosovo Albanians had during socialist Yugoslavia and parallels between the Kosovo Liberation Army and the separatist Front de libération du Québec by retired Canadian General Lewis Mackenzie. It is said by former Canadian Ambassador James Byron Bissett, that in the years following the war, many Serbs were expelled from their homes, kidnapped and killed, while a large number of their houses, cultural and religious sites were burned and destroyed. After that, economist Michel Chossudovsky discusses an alleged link between Kosovo's military and political leadership and organized crime.

The film focuses on an incident in which French football fan Brice Taton died in Belgrade, and which led to 12 young people being sentenced to a total of 115 years of prison. On September 17, 2009, a fight broke out on Obilićev venac Square when Partizan fans attacked several Toulouse fans, which - the film claims - led to Brice Taton falling off a ledge and dying in a hospital ten days later. According to the director Ivana Rajović, one of the Partizan fans, Stefan Veličković, couldn't have been a part of the fight, because he was getting a traffic violation ticket in Makedonska street several blocks away at the time the fight was taking place. In spite of Stefan having an alibi, he was sentenced to seven years in prison.
