Road to Resilience

A Child's Diary of War

Mount Sinai Health System Episode 82

Zlata Filipovic is a documentary filmmaker and world-renowned diarist. In 1992, as the war in Bosnia arrived in her hometown of Sarajevo, Zlata recounted the war's horrors in her diary. The diary's publication in 1993 brought worldwide acclaim, as well as the means for Zlata and her family to escape. On Road to Resilience, Zlata shares her experiences in the war, and how she and her family remained resilient through times of immense grief, hardship, and adversity.
