Two films in anticipation of the 2nd World war were: Hell Unlimited by Helen 
Biggar & Norman McLaren;  and Peace & Plenty by Ivor Montagu.

There was a film shot during the first Gulf War of a family watching the news 
of the war on  TV as the bombing was taking place outside their home.  I wish I 
knew more about it., does anyone on the list know?
