Subject: CNN/ DIscovery

I am researching a series of short films for CNN and Discovery called
'Personal Journeys' about inspirational people who have faced enormous risks
and challenges, but have ultimately been successful. I would love to get in
touch with two ethnic Albanian sisters, Fatima and Larina, who appeared in a
report for BBC News Online in May 1999.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/354893.stm

The sisters risked their lives to film Serb soldiers who forced them and
hundreds of other people from their homes in Mitrovica. They were made to
walk 80km to Djakovica and then back again. They were interviewed in a
refugee camp in Montenegro by a BBC reporter in May 1999, but I do not know
what happened to them since.

The only information I have is their names, Fatima and Larina, they are
probably in their early or mid twenties. Fatima has long dark curly hair and
Larina has long straight blonde hair. They used to live in Mitrovika and may
have returned there now. They were split from their family when they left
Mitrovika, but found one another at the refugee camp in Montenegro. They
were both law students.

I would be grateful for any help you can give me in finding the girls. I
would love to talk to them and find out if they are interested in telling
their story for a short film to be shown on CNN and the Discovery Channel.
