In her three-part series VALIE EXPORT takes a look at the themes of "staged space - staged time", "real movement - movable reality", and "structural film", a genre which no longer exists on public-service television. Using numerous examples from films prepared for the specific media, for example by Wojciek Bruszewski, Malcolm LeGrice, Sergey Eisenstein, Maya Deren, Kurt Kren, Yvonne Rainer, Anne Severson, Alfred Hitchcock, Linda Christanell, Gary Beydler and Marc Adrian, narrative and non-narrative forms of story-telling are examined and compared. Adrian appears in a live interview, and he attempts to explain the conditions of production, methods and Zeitgeist through his own work, including his first computer film, Random (1963). The advanced level of this film is also indicated by the high density of theoretical quotes from Christian Metz, Charles S. Peirce, Vsevolod I. Pudovkin and Ferdinand de Saussure.

Newsreels from the '30s constitute the bulk of this fascinating documentary, clearly illustrating that the public was fed an extremely biased view of events: straight propaganda, the stricture to provide entertainment, and the attempt to be objective all contributing to this. Lewis and producer Elizabeth Taylor-Mead have constructed their argument well, but it is Jonathan Dimbleby's brief comments towards the end that contain the crucial lesson: forty years on, the same forces work to distort our view of Northern Ireland. The film only indicates this to be the case, but it is precise and coherent enough to make the point with considerable force.

The documentary dedicated to the events of 1818, part of the series on the Bicentennials of Peruvian Independence, focuses on three key themes in the process leading up to San Martín's declaration in Lima's main square on July 28, 1821. The first theme is the failed uprising attempted by José Gómez, which culminated in the leader's death. The second is the heated debate that erupted in Lima regarding free trade, among various thinkers and members of the Consulate Tribunal. The third is the anonymous publication in Buenos Aires of the text written by José de la Riva Agüero y Sánchez Boquete, entitled "Historical and Political Manifesto of the Revolution of America," in which he outlines twenty-eight causes justifying the insurgency against the Spanish regime in America. Through the parallel development of the three themes, the viewer is given an idea of what was happening that year in Peru, on the road to the proclamation of independence in 1821.
