The lovely ladies of environmentally-concerned Bosnia were in Visoko this past week to shoot a benefit film and compete for the title of Eco Queen 2006. The film was shot atop the pyramids to a loud rumba soundtrack and much hip swaying, and is intended to raise awareness and funds, not to mention eyebrows. The end of the contest was marked by a fashion show at Motel Piramida Sunca, at which Foundation directors Semir Osmanagic and Mario Gerussi were guests of honor.

Eco Queen 2006 in Visoko
We caught up with newly-crowned Eco Queen and Visoko native Belma Suša last night, and were able to conduct a short interview. Sitting in the motel lobby, she wears a white dress, and her face fairly glows under her silver tiara.
I start out with a soft one, asking Belma, “How does it feel to be Eco Queen?”
“It is a nice honor, and I will do other things in my life, but it’s something I can look back on.”
“What is the movie you shot about?” “This was a movie about ecology, green Visoko and traditional Visoko.” Another contestant, Milla Eminović, told me her feelings for Visoko earlier: “Every city has a soul, and Visoko has a good soul.”
The girls have clearly enjoyed their time here, and have contributed to the town’s strong energy. I ask Belma how it feels to be in the shadow of the Bosnian Pyramids .
“I believe in them with all my heart. The man who came here and found them is a very interesting man and I like him very much.”
