Next week the Media and Conflict Interchange will be screening five
factual and fictional films at the Pictureville cinema in the National
Media Museum. The films will be introduced by expert speakers,
including Paul Rogers, author of ‘Why We’re Losing the War on Terror’.
The first day is themed ‘Arab Spring’ with Battle of Algiers bringing
much needed historical context and Arna’s Children and Restrepo,
documenting aspects of struggle in Palestine and Afghanistan. The
second day features The March (1990 – BBC) – a dramatisation of mass
migration caused by climate change and arguably Oliver Stone’s best
film - Salvador.
There is an opportunity to see further screenings and take part in an
extended debate at The University on the Thursday after the event.
