With the civil war coming to a close, an entire generation of young people now has the chance to experience relative peace. But what does this mean to young people who have grown up only knowing war? The second part of our documentary series presents perspectives of youth from more rural communities in Sri Lanka, speaking on their experiences of conflict and their ideas for moving forward.
Through these documentaries, we seek to give different narratives a voice and contribute to Sri Lanka’s post conflict social discourse.
“What an illusion we’re living in…”
