The Yugoslav wars: Arkan's Legacy in Serbia | Full Documentary

They are war heroes in their own country. War criminals to the rest of the world. The men who joined up to defend the Serb nation and fought proudly in the notorious paramilitary group, Arkan’s Tigers, never accepted that they did anything wrong. What has become of these men?

Many went on to join the Serbian mafia, trafficking drugs, women and arms into Europe. In the years of sanctions after the war, the mafia offered a way of avoiding economic disaster. Other Tiger members were recruited into the state security force, where one went on to assassinate Serbian Prime Minister, Zoran Dindic. And others remained at home, reminiscing of past glories and preparing for the next time they need to defend their motherland…

We gained exclusive access to one of the most controversial militia in modern European history.

This documentary was produced by Les Films de L'Odyssée and directed by Sebastien Gilles. It was first released in 2018.
