Boris Malagurski (Serbian Cyrillic: Борис Малагурски) (born August 11, 1988 in Subotica, SR Serbia, Yugoslavia) is a Serbian-Canadian film director, producer and screenwriter.
Malagurski's most recent completed film is Kosovo: Can You Imagine? (2009), which deals with the topic of human rights of Serbs in Kosovo. The film has been described as:
Months after it was completed, it became a hit worldwide, on the Internet, but also in the diaspora, as well as some festivals. An objective, authentic journalistic approach to the issue, as well as brave work on the field, make this documentary an accomplishment envied by any author
— Pečat Magazine
In December 2009, the film had its broadcast premiere on Russia Today, the first all-digital Russian TV network.
Currently Boris is working on a film dealing with Western involvement in the breakup of Yugoslavia, The Weight of Chains (2010). The film is supported by the Global Research Institute and will tackle the question of why Yugoslavia really fell apart, the answer of which, according to the author, is far from how the media present it. Malagurski will also examine the current economic situation in the former Yugoslav republics and offer a unique perspective on the major political and social issues facing the people living in that part of the world.
