Politicians in this country and the region have used war crimes and related issues to breed more mistrust between communities by promoting identification with perpetrators, promoting them into national heroes and minimizing or bringing into question the importance or the number of victims from other ethnic groups.

In addition, media coverage of war crimes is limited to legal jargon and several "flashpoints" of interest (speculation about possible indictments, announcement of indictments, first appearance and the sentence of those convicted) when it comes to ICTY cases.

Often, media actually follow the above mentioned politicians’ approach to war crimes perpetrators, who are seen as champions of the cause a particular media promotes.

“FINGERPRINTS” series aims to portray war crimes through human faces, faces of people who suffered and are true war crime victims among all three communities in BiH. “FINGERPINTS” appeal to people's humanity and invite them to identify with victims rather than perpetrators.
