              Iraq's Secret War Files

              The only TV documentary to have a preview of the biggest Wikileaks release ever. This is what really happened during the Iraq war, not what the US PR machine of the time wanted us to believe. The reality behind the civilian death count; al-Qaeda's fictitious presence; torture, torture and more torture. A wall of truth revealing unprecedented levels of unwarranted aggression. "The detainee was blindfolded, beaten about the feet and head, electricity was applied to his genitals, and he was sodomized with a water bottle". These secret US military files from 2004-2009 record 300 acts of torture perpetrated on Iraqi prisoners; all after the world gasped at images of grinning US soldiers holding naked Iraqis on leashes. Far from winning the hearts and minds of the people, coalition forces have killed so many civilians, that insurgency has sky-rocketed. The air force launches Hellfire missiles at men with their arms raised in surrender, and at goat herders digging for roots.

              An investigation of Israeli religious, right-wing extremists who are preparing for battle to stop Ariel Sharon's plan to dismantle settlements in Gaza and the West Bank. “They are dedicated to a country without Arabs and democracy. They see themselves at war with secular Israeli society. They believe they are acting out God's will”.

              Jenin Jenin, directed and co-produced by Palestinian actor and director Mohamed Bakri, includes testimony from Jenin residents after the Israeli army's Defensive Wall operation, during which the city and camp were the scenes of fierce fighting. The operation ended with Jenin flattened and scores of Palestinians dead. Palestinians as well as numerous human rights groups accused Israel of committing war crimes in the April 2002 attack on the refugee camp. Jenin Jenin shows the extent to which the prolonged oppression and terror has affected the state of mind of the Palestinian inhabitants of Jenin.

              Beirut, July 2006. Israeli bombings strike the city. While Beirut is still on fire, the filmmaker starts a journey across his native land. The film is not a documentary - although the images are burningly real - but an essay. Using two complementary techniques, 16 mm film and HDV, the artist questions the deep foundations of the documentary genre. The eye of the cameras goes through a country in a state of terror, it records the immediate effects of war when it touches civilians.

              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. Unfortunately, not a single African or Asian who fought alongside the allies has been honoured together with his French, American and English brothers in arms....

              On the first of November 1954, “Bloody All Saints Day” exploded in a series of attacks throughout Algeria carried out by what would later become the National Liberation Front. It was the start of the Algerian war. The first film made about this conflict became the first indispensable documentary about the Algerian war. It includes unforgettable testimonies and archives to that allow us to “dare to look at the truth head on". In the rigorous search for historical truth, the authors committed themselves to understanding the different parts of the conflicts, such as the "pieds-noirs", the career soldiers, the Harkis, the Fellaghas, the civil population... Yves Couriere, writer and journalist, has followed all the major stages of the Algerian drama, on the field, between 1958 and 1963. Before making this film, from 1967 to 1971, he published a four-volume history, the first, of the Algerian war.

              Those who suffer from the melancholy of eternity are called eternals. Convinced that death cannot take their lives, they believe they are condemned to wander around waiting for the day when they will be released from their existence. This film is a tale of wanderings and escapes, on the borders of Nagorno-Karabakh, an Armenian enclave in Azerbaijan. Inhabited by the ghosts of the genocide and by the war that has been raging there for more than twenty years, the characters who traverse this film carry within them the melancholy of the eternal.

              A journey through Beirut's devastated neighbourhoods and some villages in southern Lebanon. The ordinary stories of ordinary people. Women, children and men face the challenge of remaking their lives in the midst of the devastation. 34 days of bombing by Israel have left indelible marks. Hundreds of families have lost their loved ones, a million displaced people return to their devastated houses. The Lebanese people wake from the nightmare full of rage and sorrow. Bombs are heavy, peace has no weight.
