A documentary is set to air on the American public television depicting
WWII Croatians as victims of genocide in hands of communists. During
WWII, Croatia was an ally of Hitler and engaged in extermination of
Serbs and Jews in several Croat-run concentration camps.
Titled Freedom From Despair, the documentary features actor Michael
York, John Savage, Beata Pozniak and politician Dennis Kucinich
narrating alleged Croatian victimhood during WWII.
"Brenda Brkusic’s award winning film uncovers the long history of
suppression and abuse of the Croatian people and their struggle for
independence from communist Yugoslavia,’ states the promotional flyer.
The documentary will air on January 24, 2008 at 9:00 pm PDT by KOCE
TV. The station manager is asking for support by viewers by their
calling a number at the station as a sign of approval.
According to the email we obtained, the director of the film Brenda
Brkusic says that she expects "this screening of Freedom from Despair
on KOCE-TV to be as successful as the Armenian Genocide film that
aired on KOCE-TV last year. Immediately after the Armenian film,
KOCE listed a phone number for viewers to call to support the film.
Hundreds of people from the SoCal Armenian Community called the KOCE
phone number. This is our once in a lifetime chance to show support
for the film that shows the genocide of the Croatian people on TV.
Five million people will be watching. Will you be one of the people
watching and calling in to show your support of our Croatian story
on PBS?"
