SAGA production

During a long-time work, SaGA has created a huge video archive having an extraordinary value and containing the documents about cities, historical monuments and testimonies on the BiH culture destroyed during the war. At the beginning of the siege of Sarajevo in April 1992, SaGA became a place of assembly of intellectuals, film professionals, artists and students, who, despite the war stayed in Sarajevo to preserve their way of life. From the very beginning of the war, SaGa's teams were shooting everyday life in the streets of Sarajevo. During the siege of Sarajevo that lasted for 1425 days, there were more than 60 documentaries made. In 1994, SaGA received FELIX, European Film Academy Annual Award for Documentaries for its work and production. Wim Wenders, President of the European Film Academy, on the occasion of the Felix award presentation ceremony, said that this award was granted to the SaGA group composed of film makers out of solidarity and admiration for an extraordinary work in the worst possible difficult circumstances. After the war SaGA has continued with production of feature and documentary films. SaGA production osnovana je 1990. godine od grupe profesionalaca iz oblasti filma, marketinga i TV produkcije. Tokom dugogodišnjeg rada, SaGA je stvorila veliki video arhiv izuzetne vrijednosti koji sadrži dokumente o gradovima, istorijskim spomenicima i svjedoenjima o BiH kulturi koja je uništena tokom rata. Poetkom opsade Sarajeva, aprila 1992. godine, SaGA je postala mjesto okupljanja intelektualaca, filmskih profesionalaca, umjetnika i studenata koji su, uprkos ratu, ostali u Sarajevu sa ciljem da sauvaju svoj nain života. Sagine ekipe su od samog poetka rata snimale svakodnevnicu na ulicama Sarajeva.
