When mortal humans take the courage to sit face to face with the 'Goddess of War' and to see that which should remain unseen, and to speak for that, that is forbidden, then consciously face the condemnation. Such is Ema Berisha, the journalist from Kosova, the protagonist of the film 'ANATHEMA', The heroine at war and the hateful traitor in freedom. The war of Kosova, projected as a war principally against the civil population, part of which was Ema Berisha, has taken place far away from the eyes of the world, far away from the eyes of the mediums. In front of the 'blind spectator' to whom it was served only the fancy of that, that really happened. The events had been circulated from mouth-to-mouth, from family to families, from village to villages. And somewhere among the mud roads of the postwar Kosova, the dramatic events were hidden or disappeared completely from the collective's memory. In this manner was hidden the destiny of Ema Berisha and thousands of raped women as a sign of revenge. Without their blame, it was hidden the destiny of thousands of destroyed life's. While treating the destiny of the raped woman, this subject with such sensibility, face to one patriarchal mentality, in spite of that, the film 'ANATHEMA' does not claim to change the world or to save the human being, but speaking about that, that is forbidden to be spoken unfolding that, that dare not to be seen pretends to offer an alternative more encouraging and more human.
