Angelina Jolie has visited Bosnia in her role as UN Goodwill Ambassador as she prepares to shoot a film in the country. The Hollywood A-lister met with Bosnian leaders in Sarajevo over the weekend to speak on behalf of refugees displaced after the 1992-1995 conflict. "I hope that there'll soon be practical steps to improve these people's lives," Jolie said in a statement. She praised the Bosnian parliament's new promise to help the 113,000 refugees still unable to return to their homes by 2014 but said things need to get done quickly. "The political leaders have shown a spirit of compromise in getting this far. Now it needs a little more urgency." It is believed Jolie also discussed shooting a film in the country which would be set during the Bosnian war. The actress inspected filming locations during her visit and is expected to star in the romantic drama. There is speculation it could mark her directorial debut. While in the country, Jolie discussed supporting education to help young Bosnians, according to Haris Silajdzic, who is the Bosniak member of the tripartite presidency. "We both agreed that the absolute priority is education," he said. "So Sarajevo will become a centre of learning, a centre of culture as it always was." Jolie's visit to the country comes in the middle of promotion for her new film Salt. Her partner Brad Pitt is currently in New Orleans where he has made some controversial remarks about capital punishment. He said he would consider executing those responsible for the BP oil spill if he was in power. Source: Sky News
