Memories from the Eastern Front

What would a photo album carefully made by a Romanian Army Regiment from WW2 look like? By a stroke of luck, we have an answer: Regiment 6 Roșiori created their photo album on the Eastern Front. So now we can see how a "military gaze" operates—what it sees and what it wants to keep in memory for all posterity. We have systematically broken the flow of this silent photo album with texts taken from other documents—which reveal what the photos tried to hide. [The 23rd Jeonju International Film Festival]
