Winds of Change (Video)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Winds of Change is a training film produced by the Royal School of Signals, which consists of a montage of unpleasant imagery such as decapitations, death by ocular trauma, evisceration, executions and torture. The constant background music is the song Wind of Change by the German band Scorpions, which seems somewhat incogruous with the violent action. The distressing imagery follows one or two specific themes and many of the images are drawn from a small number of common sources, such as documentary footage of the Yugoslavian Wars. Some of the images are seemingly surrealistic or irrelevant (footage of bacteria under a microscope). The overall effect is reminiscent of the Ludovico technique.
