Twenty years after the war in Kosovo, and ten years after the declaration of the independence, finally the cinematography of Kosovo is showing the glimpses of becoming a movement. Struggling between the old generation of filmmakers driven by war stories and the young generation of filmmakers driven by the social context in the post-war society, films produced in Kosovo are finally braking their own way to international festivals and gaining international recognition.This thesis focuses on some of the most successful and critically aclaimed films that are made in Kosovo since the declaratin of independence in 2008 and tries to analize them, with the goal of identifying similarities and patterns that connects these films with each other. How are they made, how are they founded, what storys to they tell, the source of inspiration, the background of the authors and the motivation behind their work, in order to come to a conlcusion on what are the defining patterns of this movement.Among the awards recieved by these films are some of the main prizes in important festivals such as Sundance, Roterdam Film Festival, Karlovy Vary Film Festival and nominations in festivals such as Berlinale, Toronto Film Festival, Oscar Nominations, etc.
