Red Army/PFLP: Declaration of World War

Sekigun-PFLP: Sekai sensô sengen / 赤軍-PLFP 世界戦争宣言
by Adachi Masao, Wakamatsu Koji

On their way back from the Cannes Film Festival in 1971, filmmakers Wakamatsu Koji and Adachi Masao visited Lebanon to meet Japan’s Red Army faction and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine to shoot a newsreel film promoting the Palestinian resistance. Conceived as a ‘declaration of world war’ that implicates us all, the directors capture the everyday banality of military training and preparation exercises for imminent battle.
