James Nachtwey : photographe de guerre (2001)

video    documentary    The Mirrorless Man

Depuis plus de 20 ans,

le photojournaliste James Nachtwey (1948) visite des pays déchirés par la guerre,

comme le Kosovo et le Rwanda, filmant les destructions.

Même s'il n'est qu'un simple observateur,

il ressent néanmoins les effets immédiats des terres ravagées.

Ces images sombres contrastent avec la réserve calme de Nachtwey

alors qu'il repousse les accusations d'exploitation de la tragédie.

Le réalisateur Christian Frei attache une petite caméra vidéo

à l'appareil photo de Nachtwey

pour une vue plongeante de la destruction, de la douleur et,

finalement, de l'espoir.

If It Were My Home

The headlines tell a lot

about the crisis in Yemen:

internal strife,

evacuations of international aid workers,

Saudi Arabian airstrikes.

But you may have one very basic question

that you can't easily find an answer for:

How big is Yemen, anyway?

You can look at maps and check out Wikipedia

but wouldn't it be great

to just to slap an outline of Yemen

on top of a map of the United States

to get a sense of its size?

IfItWereMyHome.com

lets you do just that.
