DESCRIPTION:presented by kino21\nNotes of a Kurdish Rebel by Stefano Savona (France, 
 2005, 78 minutes)  November by Hito Steyerl (Germany, 2004, 24 minutes) 
 \nkino21's 5 program series, How We Fight: Conscripts, Mercenaries, 
 Terrorists and Peacekeepers, presents international works that explore 
 soldiering and depict the experience of war from the point of view of those 
 on the ground. From Argentina, Russia, Iraq, Germany, France, Holland and 
 the U.S., several of these films are US premieres.\nWe began in September 
 with Iraqi Short Films, a brand new compilation of videos shot in battle by 
 soldiers and militia members in Iraq. Subsequent programs include video 
 diaries of the battlefield and pre- or post-combat rumination, extended 
 observational portraits and interview-based works. There are depictions of 
 Russian conscripts in Chechnya, PKK rebels in the mountains of Iraq, 
 American veterans returned from Vietnam, and mercenaries and peacekeepers 
 stationed across the globe, from Bosnia to Rwanda, from the Middle East to 
 the USA. \nOur third program in the series consists of two works that 
 portray those labeled as "terrorists" —in this case rebel fighters in the 
 PKK (Kurdistan Workers' Party). Stefano Savona's Notes of a Kurdish Rebel 
 follows a group of young, idealistic fighters in the mountains of Northern 
 Iraq as they prepare to cross into Turkey.\nHito Steyerl's November is a 
 thought-provoking essay on the image of the revolutionary and the gesture 
 of rebellion, as embodied by her friend Andrea Wolf. Both films are complex 
 depictions of the desire to take arms against state oppression, and both 
 suggest the central role of women as fighters in this revolutionary armed 
 struggle. \n\nAll screenings in the series take place at Artists Television 
 Access\nalso see our web site below for more information --\n\n
