hi,
again from wikipedia on ETA,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ETA
in the
basque region & these films look
interesting & worth seeing. The
list is below.
the longer this goes on, I think it would
be interesting to have a "modern-age"
list of cases of "terrorism." Its just
funny to me a little bit because one
man's terrorist is another man's freedom
fighter and its all about a point of view.
Here's a list of films about Chechnya:

I would think that some subset of these
might be good to show in Russia, although
you might get in some trouble showing
them, I imagine, either here or there.
