Some graphic war violence though the documentary style and war context lessons the impact.
We see nothing but a black-screen at first after the opening credits, but then hear the tragedy of 9/11 on the soundtrack. The film then fades in to show the horrified reactions of the New Yorkers. A child has head stitching surgery.
A man is hung from a crane and beaten.
A man is beheaded- this happens from a distance, and a subtitle pops up saying "Public Beheading in Saudi Arabia" right before it happens, so it's easy to look away from.
An egg is thrown at Bush's limo.
We see lots of brutal Iraq war documentary footage.
A child is shot in the arm and we see it hanging off the bone.
A dead child's body is thrown on to a truck.
A village full of real dead bodies is shown.
Lots of footage of burned people in hospital.
A man is tortured and beaten by underage soldiers; he is mocked and hit repeatedly in the groin.
