The Search For Dead Children In Bosnia

Why one Bosnian woman refuses to give up the search for her dead children

With thousands of Bosnians still missing, believed to be in mass graves, one woman, Yasna has been tireless in her personal search for her two children, taken away from her in 1992 and killed. She's the subject of a new short film, Red Rubber Boots, which follows her as she visits mass graves, looking for the boots her son was wearing when he was killed.

Also on the programme: The scientist who's made it her mission to help victims of the Bosnian civil war. An Asian farmer who startled her village by choosing to farm organically talks about her business.
