Alan Hayling

This documentary bears witness to the events that took place more than thirty years before the filming of this movie, on October 17, 1961, in Paris, during the Algerian War. It is a work not only about historical truth but also about memory. Constructed primarily from interviews conducted with those involved in the events, along with archival footage, photographs, and radio broadcasts from the time, our investigation proves that nearly 200 Algerians were killed (drowned, tortured) that night and in the days that followed by the French police. "A Missing Day" seeks to ask two key questions: how could such events have unfolded in the capital of a Western democracy barely thirty years ago? And why have they been silenced ever since?

News on Sunday was a left-wing tabloid that launched to great fanfare in 1987 and went bankrupt just eight weeks later. It was one of the boldest business ventures ever attempted by the far left and it was a disaster. A group who met through a tiny left-wing faction called Big Flame were convinced it was possible to market a left-wing mass-circulation newspaper. They were led by ex-Ford worker Alan Hayling (now head of BBC Documentaries) under the editorial leadership of John Pilger, who walked out before the paper had even launched.

John Romer’s documentary, originally broadcast on Channel 4 in 1993, where he sets out a case for a sympathetic and effective conservation of ancient Egyptian culture.

A testimonial film about events that took place over thirty years ago, on October 17, 1961, in Paris, during the Algerian war. Based primarily on interviews with those involved in the events, together with archive footage, photos and radio documents from the period, our investigation proves that almost 200 Algerians were killed (drowned, tortured) by the French police.The film asks two key questions: how could such events have taken place in the capital of a Western democracy just thirty years ago? And why have they been ignored ever since?

The hunters are the Innu people and the bombers are the air forces of several NATO countries, which conduct low-level flights over the Innu's hunting terrain. The impact of the jets is hotly debated by peace groups, Indigenous people, environmentalists and the military. But what is often overlooked are the many complex changes underway in Innu society, as social and technological changes confront a traditional hunting culture.
