A series of landscape images from Bosnia and Kosovo, chosen on the basis of the areas bombed by NATO during the 1995 and 1999 Balkan wars, and by following the stories of four Italian veterans affected by the Balkan syndrome who have visited these places. Since the 1970s, depleted uranium has been used to enrich ordinary weapons, making them more explosive and dangerous. Since then, these ammunitions have been used in the most important conflicts. DU weapons also serve another function: the reuse of some of the 1 million tons of nuclear waste. The downside of this story is the effect on human health and environmental contamination. Although the UN has recognized DU weapons as "highly toxic and responsible for irreversible danger to humans and the environment", US and other armies still use them. It is thought that between 17 and 20 countries have depleted uranium weapons in their arsenals. These include the U.S., the UK, France, Russia, China, Turkey, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Egypt, Kuwait, Pakistan, Thailand, Iraq, and Taiwan. However, only the US and the UK have acknowledged using DU weapons, and both the Army and the Government claim that depleted uranium weapons are safe. This is in contradiction to the several studies carried out by independent institutions, which showed how upon explosion, depleted uranium vaporises the metal of the hit target into minute particles. These nanoparticles, once in contact with a living organism, can easily penetrate tissue or lungs, and remain in the body. And cause several forms of cancer, the so-called "Balkan syndrome".
