In addition to the documentary, a panel was also organized with Xhevdet Smajli, former KLA soldier in the demining sector, prof.ass.dr. Mimoza Shahini and Fatmir Grejqevci from Tv Dielli (Radio Kosova e Lire). Xhevdet Smajli, a former KLA soldier, who lost his sight after falling into mines placed by Serbian soldiers, said that it was a very bitter experience, but he still found the will to engage and integrate into society, despite the barriers he had constantly encountered.

“It is known that someone has to give me the eyes to win over all the others”, added Smajli, among other things, showing the psychological effect and trauma these events cause to the victims.
