              Balkan Rhapsodies (1-78)

              A poetic documentary that weaves together a mosaic of encounters, observations and reflections from Jeff Silva's travels through war-torn Serbia and Kosovo. The rhapsodic structure destabilizes linear time, highlighting the fragmentation of time, memory and history and its metaphoric implications of what became of the Former Yugoslavia. The collection of detritus and shards of memories, evidence, and experiences builds to a melodic echo that resonates with the absurdity of the situation and reflects a political and social imperative beyond the conflicts in Yugoslavia into of our present day crises.

              Insider's view of the 1930s radio studio showing the production of dramatic sound effects. (The Prelinger Archives are a source of educational material, mainly ordered by theme, giving a vision of the dark side, the underbelly, perhaps naive of the American dream and the America that is often hidden behind the media curtain.)

              Sometimes facts matter. Every cook knows that hot glass looks like cold glass, but hot glass burns. Every mechanic knows that a broken oil guage can make a driver destroy a car. Facts matter. Facts have never mattered more than they do in Iraq. Hundreds of Billions have been spent. Tens of thousands of US soldiers have been wounded and disabled. Thousands of US soldiers have been killed and more will die. Hundreds of thousands of Iraqi's have died and millions have fled their country. The war that started in Iraq is fast becoming a "Middle East" war. Things are bad and getting worse . . . And still you hear the same lies from the talking heads and politicians. US Soldiers who have served on the ground in Iraq can tell you the truth about the war. They'll tell you why we are losing. They'll tell you what they've actually seen and they've actually done. They'll tell you how they know the US has lost the hearts and minds of the Iraqi people. They'll tell you how the US Military is being destroyed and how that will put you and your family at risk for decades to come. To protect yourself and your family, you need the facts.

              In April 1961, in the Aurès mountains of Algeria, a hunting commando made up of Breton conscripts confronts a group from the National Liberation Army and captures an Algerian prisoner. A French soldier, wounded in the clash and a schoolteacher in civilian life, recalls the events he experienced with his comrades over the past months: their opposition to the Algerian war led them to a camp reserved for draft resisters. He remembers how their commanding officer managed to turn them, from young anti-militarist Bretons, into fearsome fellagha hunters — ready to kill, and even starting to enjoy it. All of them, except him, gradually give in to the escalating violence. Avoir vingt ans dans les Aurès, is a fictional work based on eight hundred hours of recordings of French conscripts during the Algerian war.
