See You in the Next War:



A chemical generation war story



 



A film thats more Plane-spotting than Train spotting:



See You in the Next War is a Chemical generation war story.



A rockumentary portrait of the lives of a generation who have grown up,
fought, resisted and simply survived a decade of war in the Balkans. A
generation who fully embraced the punk and DIY ethos and who refused to be
bullied either by an oppressive regime, or by the bombs of NATO.



Humans against killing sounds like junkies against dope:



See You in the Next War is an-all digital documentary feature that tells  a
story about the war in Yugoslavia from the perspective of the staff,
friends  and listeners of the rebel radio station, Belgrade radio B92.



Fuck them and their law:



Filmed both outside and inside Serbia over the past 18 months, See You In
the Next War is both a shocking and at times shockingly absurd portrayal of
life both during and in between war-time.



With a musical sound-track that includes contributions from Serbias  top
bands and DJs, See You in the Next War is genuinely  independent, guerrilla
film making at its most daring, provocative and  passionate.



A must-see for anyone who believes that there always is another side to any
war, other than the one portrayed by the mainstream global media or by
state  propaganda.



Accept NO Borders!:



See You in the Next War is a film that not only talks-the-talks, but also
walks-the-walk in its search for the truth. It is a celebration of  dissent
and reaffirmation of the kind of free-spirit that believes that there is  a
need in times of crisis to accept no borders in search of the truth.



The revolution will be televised and stage-managed:



Filming inside Serbia was undertaken both covertly by Director/Producer
Doug Aubrey with a small digital camcorder and also with the co-operation
of the staff of the B92 TV dept and includes extracts from Zoran  Kesics
remarkable street-level footage of the October 5th  uprising.



Adopting a stylish and innovative format, that fully embraces the creative



potential of digital film making; See You in the Next War reaches  its
spectacular (and contradictory) climax with the popular up-rising  against
the Milosevic regime and the return of some of the staff to the original
B92 station in central Belgrade, for the first time since the NATO bombing
and  the stations take-over.



See You in the Next War:



The films concluding moments are both a sobering warning to  anyone in the
west who believes that the war in the Balkans is over and also a  timely
reminder of the need for a genuinely independent media voice to continue
to be heard not just in Serbia, but world-wide.
