Territorio Commanche (1997) **

An interesting film about Spanish journalists in war-torn Sarajevo. It explores the moral and ethical issues facing that profession. Consider a cameraman filming from behind the back of a Serb sniper shooting at Muslim civilians. Or hoping for a bridge to be blown up so that he can capture it on film. It's quite gripping and provocative, but ultimately offers few more insights than a good edition of "Crossfire" on CNN.
