War You Don’t See, The

Synopsis: John Pilger’s film is a powerful investigation into the media’s role in war. It traces the history of ‘embedded’ and independent reporting from the carnage of World War I to the destruction of Hiroshima, and from the invasion of Vietnam to the current war in Afghanistan. As weapons and propaganda are ever more sophisticated, the very nature of war has developed into an ‘electronic battlefield’. But who is the real enemy today?
