Behind The Scenes of War

In times of Smartphones, GoPros and countless platforms such as YouTube, Instagram, or TikTok, the way war is depicted has changed fundamentally. And everyone is filming - soldiers, journalists, civilians, war zone tourists. The lines between propaganda and self-representation are becoming more and more blurred. By working exclusively with publicly available video footage from YouTube, the filmmakers shed light on the three narrators of the Modern War: the first-person voice of the soldier, the journalists trying to play the role of an omniscient narrator, and the self-centered subjective voice of vloggers. A portrait of the absurd global theater of war, and its depiction through GoPro, TV, and VLOGs.
