Directed by Adachi Masao and produced by Wakamatsu Koji in collaboration with the PFLP (The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine) and the Red Army Faction of Japan. While the subject of this documentary is the frontline of the Palestinian liberation struggle, most scenes do not depict spectacles of war, but instead show the uneventful everyday lives of guerrilla fighters training in refugee camps, overlaid with radical political propaganda and narration. Through his development of Landscape Theory and growing awareness that the landscape itself had been commodified as a spectacle through the process of urbanization, Adachi came to establish a new theory of tactical media and news reporting via film production that captures landscape as the primary domain where power functions. A theory of cinematic production as a form of political movement for alternative film distribution and screening was also proposed through the organization of the "Red Bus Screening Troop," which traveled around Japan and abroad to show the film. The aim was to go beyond the auteurist model of cinema, and to create a new producer-viewer relationship outside theater distribution.
本片由足立正生执导,若松孝二制作,与解放巴勒斯坦人民阵线(PFLP)和日本赤军派(RAF)合作完成。这部展现巴勒斯坦解放斗争前线的纪录片中并未渲染战争场面,而将镜头转向巴勒斯坦游击战士在黎巴嫩难民营中平淡的日常和训练生活,并叠加了激进的政治宣传旁白。在《略称:连环射杀魔》的创作中,足立意识到景观本身在城市化进程中已被商品化为一种奇观,并由此提出“风景论”理论。《世界战争宣言》进一步发扬“风景论”,将景观视作权力运作的主要场域,创造出结合革命政治宣传和实时新闻报道的电影-媒介理论。本片遭到禁映后,足立等人组织了流动“红色巴士放映队”,在日本境内外开展游击式放映,并提出游击式电影制作、发行和放映的政治运动形式,其目的是超越同时代作者电影的桎梏,在影院等流通场域之外与观众建立连结。
