The Baader Meinhof Complex
Just watched The Baader Meinhof Complex movie.
It's a very impressive mixture of modern actor's play and documentary about left-wing German terrorists in 1960-s and 1970-s.
One of surprises of the movie was that Soviet Union was never mention -- like it didn't exist at all (consider that the movie is about _left_ wing terrorists).
Main playfield is Germany, but few other countries are mentioned, including the United States, Yemen, and Somalia.
The movie is not for everyone. It starts with tons of nudity and has lots of blood and violence in it.
Modern world seems pretty calm and safe in comparison.

What's interesting -- it helped Democrats to win 2008 elections, but nothing changed regarding how "Syriana" countries are treated by the US.
