This past week I watched two documentary films which were given to me by my teacher. The first film which was 'Jesus Camp' covered the representation of children as the bearers of evil and good by Christians, hence they must be strictly raised to create a world without sin. It also reveals the use of religion as a political tool to gain victory. The other film which was 'Control Room' covered the factual aspects of biased media coverage on delicate issues such as the invasion of Iraq which is one of the main reason of Islamic extremism. These two documentaries have helped shaped the idea for my short film, it has provided two ways that I can do a short film on the topic of religion. In the coming weeks I will be doing more research on religious short films and documentarie on the invasion of Iraq to further decide on what I will want my short film to be on.
