Boris Malagurski (Serbian Cyrillic: Борис Малагурски) (born August 11, 1988 in Subotica, SR Serbia, Yugoslavia) is a Serbian-Canadian film director, producer and screenwriter.[1][2][3][4]

Malagurski's most recent completed film is Kosovo: Can You Imagine? (2009), which deals with the topic of human rights of Serbs in Kosovo.[5][6] 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[1]

In December 2009, the film had its broadcast premiere on Russia Today, the first all-digital Russian TV network.[7]

Currently Boris is working on a film dealing with Western involvement in the breakup of Yugoslavia[2], The Weight of Chains (2010).[8][9] The film is supported by the Global Research Institute[10] and will tackle the question of why Yugoslavia really fell apart[11], the answer of which, according to the author, is far from how the media present it.[12] 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.[13]
