Several dozen people, including members of the banned far-right organization Obraz, prevented the showing of a film called “Albanian Women Are Our Sisters” in the city of Nis. One of the producers of the film is Independent Journalists Association of Vojvodina. While the protesters were waving with Serbian flags outside the Media Centre, where the film was about to be shown, a few of them entered the building and started to yell at the organizers. In the hall of Media Center in Nis, a man who is a former member of Parliament of the Serbian Progressive Party, Branislav Vakic, among other things said “… we forbid the projection of this pagan film. We will not allow this. The crowd is gathered down, all of you will get beatings.”
