War Correspondent - the Troubles We've Seen: First Journey

on BBC Two England

The first of two journeys by veteran French documentary maker Marcel Ophuls into the world of the war correspondent, filmed in Sarajevo in 1993. Ophuls ventured into the warzone to discover what makes war correspondents tick, and why they're prepared to face the kind of danger that recently led to the tragic death in the former Yugoslavia of BBC reporter John Schofield. He also asks whether these tough journalistic campaigners are providing a useful public service.
(The second Ophuls documentary will be shown next Saturday.)
