This highly kinetic tableaux of uprooted sights and sounds works most earnestly to expose the racial biases concealed in familiar images. Relying on valuable snippets from feature films such as Exodus, Lawrence of Arabia, Black Sunday, Little Drummer Girls, and network news shows, the filmmakers have constructed an oddly wry narrative, mimicking the history of Mid East politics.

The coalition forces before the launch of their war on Iraq promised the removal of a Saddam style dictatorship with the implementation of freedom and democracy. It was in the name of Freedom that Britain and America launched a brutal war on the people of Iraq who are predominantly Muslim. Far from accepting the occupation of the coalition forces, the people of Iraq have refused to be forced to accept democracy and freedom. In replacement of Saddam, America has installed a new dictator and continues its onslaught on cities and villages in Iraq that wish to remain independent. This powerful and moving documentary will question the justification of the whole war, expose the butchery inflicted upon the Iraqi people and set a vision (for action) for the Muslim communities in Britain and the West.

This video brings us the voices and minds of Farmers from Cuzco, Peru. They explain what school they want for their children, what education is needed for life to flourish and for the strength of ancestral times to be carried over to new generations.

The authenticity of the objects becomes blurred when the people that once adored them start to sell them.

1958 General De Gaulle pronunces -in a very convulse and tragic moment for an Argelia under rigorous represion and torture- its famous and demagogic “Je vous ai Compris” (I understand you). A reading on several audiovisual documents of that time gives to us an opposite meaning to that sentence. “Je vous ai Compris” now means and show us the real sense of the civilizational work of the western powers. Today so enthusiaticly renovated.

The tragic participation of Africans from the French colonies in major world conflicts is a very important issue. We have just commemorated the 60th Anniversary of the Liberation of Europe.
