FIGHTER follows two friends, Jan Wiener, to whom the title refers, and Arnost Lustig, a writer--both in their seventies, and both exiles from Communist Czechoslovakia now living in America--as they retrace Wiener's escape from Prague after the Nazi takeover in the 1930s. Wiener's trek took him via Yugoslavia and Italy to London, where he joined the British Royal Air Force as a fighter pilot. Upon returning to Prague after the war, he was falsely accused of being a spy by the Communist regime, and spent five years in a labor camp. Incorporating rare archival footage from Nazi and Communist propaganda films, the documentary focuses on the interaction between Wiener and Lustig as they retrace Wiener's steps and track down some of the individuals connected with his journey. Although they are linked by their similar personal histories surrounding the war, the two friends are eventually driven apart by their conflicting interpretations of the past and their fundamental philosophical differences. Director Amir Bar-Lev's unusual and vastly inquisitive documentary was an acclaimed hit at film festivals as well as in its theatrical release.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Additional Release Material: Trailers - 1.

Of the many weapons introduced in World War II, one of the most frightening was the human suicide bomber. These Japanese kamikaze pilots would put honor before life by flying into military targets with the very plane they were piloting. Emperor Hirohito assigned more than 2000 men to this fate in a development so terrifying to the United States that the atomic bomb was seen as the only way to stop it. This documentary examines these suicide pilots using archival footage and thoroughly researched facts.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Single Side - Dual LayerAudio: Dolby Digital 5.1 - English
