Innovative Video and Film Production Services
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
PRODUCTION OF A COMPLETE ARCHIVE of documentary videos that include ALL medieval destroyed and devastated Serbian Orthodox churches and monasteries in Kosovo and Metohia.
PRODUCTION TIME
During the period January - March 2026, I will visit and record the current condition of 64 medieval monasteries and churches that have been destroyed and desecrated and have not been visited to date.
PROJECT BUDGET
A total of 30,000 euros is needed to cover transport to and in Kosovo and Metohia, filming, and studio processing.
PROJECT PURPOSE
Presentation to relevant political institutions, cultural institutions, and media in the USA, Europe, and Russia, and highlighting the need for an adequate solution to the civilizational catastrophe in Kosovo and Metohia when it comes to Serbian cultural and spiritual heritage.
Author and producer of the Project
Ninoslav Randjelovic
SPECIAL NOTE FOR DONORS:
If my stay in Kosovo and work on this project is banned
ALL FUNDS RAISED WILL BE RETURNED TO DONORS.
Holy Places Demolished
This video document is an integral version of the material recorded in Kosovo and Metohia earlier this year, with English, Russian, and French subtitles. It was produced solely thanks to the people who supported my project proposal and whose names are listed in the section of this website dedicated to donations received.
I am deeply grateful to everyone who has supported me in this work. Your contributions and support have been invaluable.
These unique video recordings show the actual condition of some of the most ancient Serbian Orthodox shrines in Kosovo and Metohia. Today, they have been turned into piles of stones or leveled to the ground, as shown in this exclusive footage, which, in fact, is the ONLY publicly available video evidence today.
These videos have already been presented as separate segments on my YouTube channel, which has received numerous visits and words of gratitude for making this type of information finally available to the public.
Despite significant interest and positive feedback on my YouTube channel, this did not lead to serious support or interest from institutions, media outlets, or the wider public, particularly in Serbia. This lack of support is hindering the production of the complete record of all demolished Serbian Orthodox shrines in Kosovo and Metohia.
Anyone interested in helping me produce the COMPLETE ARCHIVE OF DOCUMENTARY EVIDENCE regarding endangered Serbian cultural and spiritual heritage in Kosovo and Metohia can contact me at ninoslav0828@gmail.com or make a donation on the link provided in this website
KOSOVO AND METOHIA: HERE AND NOW
Reports on the state of destroyed and devastated Serbian Orthodox churches and sanctuaries in Kosovo and Metohia are scarce in Serbian and world media.
A video document that would register a comprehensive, authentic, and current situation regarding the damaged Serbian Orthodox cultural heritage in Kosovo and Metohia does not exist.
I am convinced that this latest video, presented here, indicates the urgent need for a more complete documentary record of the factual situation when it comes to the locations where Orthodox churches, monuments, and Serbian cemeteries are damaged or demolished.

KOSOVO AND METOHIA: HERE AND NOW
NINOSLAV RADJELOVIC - FILMOGRAPHY
As an independent author and producer, I have dedicated my work to shedding light on the humanitarian crisis, safety, and human rights violations suffered by the civilian Serbian population in Kosovo. This commitment is reflected in the 19 documentary films and numerous television reports I have produced, each serving as a voice for the oppressed.
My films have been broadcast on Serbian and European television networks and shown at international film festivals, where several have received awards.
They have also been presented at academic institutions in Europe and the United States, including OESCE, UNESCO, the United Nations, U.S. Capitol Hill, the National Press Club, the European Parliament, and the Russian Parliament.
My Kosovo films on YouTube
Please take a look at some of my Kosovo films produced in the period 1998-2007.
SOME OF THE DVD EDITIONS OF MY KOSOVO FILMS
In 2006, the DVD edition "Document of Suffering" was printed in the USA and presented at the US Senate and Congress.
In 2007, a special edition of 6 of my films about Kosovo was presented in Russia. The entire circulation of this edition was delivered to the representatives of the Russian State Duma, and all films were shown on Russian national television.
In 2008, the DVD edition "Days Made of Fear" was presented in Belgrade's Patriarchate of the Serbian Orthodox Church. With the blessing of His Holiness Patriarch Pavle, it was officially delivered to all members of the European Parliament and presented at many relevant European cultural institutions.
THREE KOSOVO FILMS FOR THE UNITED NATIONS
In 2009, an independent DVD edition was issued in New York. It included three of my documentaries on the Kosovo crisis with subtitles in six official UN languages.
With the initial endorsement from several Missions to the UN country members, 192 UN country members received this document, and films were broadcast in 147 countries worldwide.
