War Quotes

Act two: Greed and hypocrisy leading to a genocidal world war, a boom, a crash, totalitarianism. Act three: Greed and hypocrisy … I don't dare continue.
Leonard Bernstein

In 1993, my first documentary was about the civil war in Algeria. That was in French and in Arabic. Another short film I did was silent.
