The Journey
Opus magnum for Watkins and one of the most important documentaries on war, militarism, capitalism, dispossession & commodity economics. Through endless forms of systematically disguised media & gut wrenching testimonies that create a dissection of the “bomb” revealing it as another mean of oppression, imploding within education system, democracy & inequality, finally achieving a unique international vision.
