GUERRA E PACE

O.V. in Italian subtitled in Spanish and English
guerra e pace

Years ago Farocki invited us to distrust images, and Rivette alerted us to the abjection of a dolly shot. This film takes up that spirit in an intelligent and illuminating telling of who produces (and how they produce) the images. Beginning with the colonialist gaze of the archives of Italy's invasion of Libya in 1911, through the current plurality and overload of images of the world on account of smartphones and security cameras, ending with a "film school" and military audiovisual archive (perhaps the most fascinating part of the film) and its lessons on how to record and tell the story of a conflict.
