Film Screening: Quo Vadis, Aida?

Join the Cohen Institute and the Keene State Film Studies Department for a special screening of Quo Vadis, Aida? This free film screening will be followed by a post-screening discussion led by Prof. John Sturtz.

About the Film: Bosnia, July 1995. Aida is a translator for the UN in the small town of Srebrenica. When the Serbian army takes over the town, her family is among the thousands of citizens looking for shelter in the UN camp. As an insider to the negotiations Aida has access to crucial information that she needs to interpret. What is at the horizon for her family and people - rescue or death? Which move should she take?

This event is hosted by the Cohen Institute for Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Keene State College in partnership with the Film Studies Department. The film screening is free and open to all; however, space is limited and you must register in advance if you hope to attend. Attendance is only available in person. Registration will be available soon.

This event is part of a series about Bosnia and Herzegovina that the Cohen Institute will be facilitating during the spring semester leading up to the 2026 Genocide Awareness Lecture. Events in this series are meant to examine the history, cultures, and traditions of Bosnia and Herzegovina through a variety of vantage points. The views expressed by speakers in this series and in the film should not be taken as representative of the Cohen Institute or Keene State College as a whole.

This event is part of the Cohen Center calendar.
