In Guerre aux images en Algérie (War on Images in Algeria), René Vautier revisits the footage from Algérie en flammes (Algeria in Flames), shot alongside Algerian fighters in the ALN maquis in late 1956 and throughout 1957. These war images, filmed in the Aurès-Nementchas region, were meant to serve as a basis for dialogue between French and Algerians in the pursuit of peace in Algeria. They show the presence of an armed organization close to the people. In Guerre aux images en Algérie, Vautier sheds light, in 1985, on the context and often dramatic conditions in which the film was made.

The classic problems of global capitalism, reflected in one of the country's major industries... “BCN Thematic Park” talks about all this... about Barcelona, a city-advertisement that is turning into the newest theme park on the international market.
