Film Recommendation 

Place your NetFlix orders now for La Battaglia di Algeri (The Battle of Algiers), an Italian-Algerian film from 1965 about the Algerian War which is not only incredibly beautiful but startingly relevant to the current world situation. It is a bit emotional but not in any way a film of revolutionary or state propaganda. Just an incredibly honest account of a war that is taboo in France and unknown by most Americans.
