Films about sanctions and war

The Hidden Wars of Desert Storm (60 mins)
Narrated by John Hurt, this wide-ranging documentary contextualises the build-up to the Gulf War in 1990, providing a revealing history of western policies in the Gulf both before the war and after. A vital analysis to add to understanding of the present threat of military action against Iraq.

Available from Voices for £10 (plus £1.50 p&p)

Greetings from Missile Street (40 mins)
In Summer 2000, a small group from the U.S. lived for a month on a street in Basra, Southern Iraq, which had been hit by US missiles in January 1999. This film documents the lives of the families who live there, their grief as they remember those who died and their hardship after a decade of sanctions. It is an intimate portrait of a neighbourhood surviving under devastating conditions and a compelling call for peace.

Available from Voices for £4 (including p&p)
