Screen the film and ask students to consider the consequences when an oppressed nation seeks third party intervention in dispute resolution. Discuss how alliances are integral to internationalism and evaluate how the events in the film connect to actual world events. Follow up with Norman McLaren's Neighbours which also addresses the issue of “borders.” Compare the two filmmakers’ approach in showing the failure of conflict resolution.
