Shot in 1983 by two women just out of film school, Carry Greenham Home is a documentary on the protest at the Greenham Common military base which began in 1981. The protest was organized and maintained by women, and rather than focus on the pro-peace message of the demonstrators themselves, the two directors highlight the role the women have played as a group, setting examples for other feminists. While much of the chanting and communal spirit, and many of the hardships are recorded on film, there remains a need to get farther below the surface than the sound of chants or examples of camaraderie.

During World War II, a hand-picked group of American GI's undertook a bizarre mission: create a traveling road show of deception on the battlefields of Europe, with the German Army as their audience. The 23rd Headquarters Special Troops used inflatable rubber tanks, sound trucks, and dazzling performance art to bluff the enemy again and again, often right along the front lines. Many of the men picked to carry out these dangerous deception missions were artists. Some went on to become famous, including fashion designer Bill Blass. In their spare time, they painted and sketched their way across Europe, creating a unique and moving visual record of their war. Their secret mission was kept hushed up for nearly 50 years after the war's end.
