Watch the Late Tim Hetherington's 2010 Short Film Diary
Award-winning photojournalist and documentarian Tim Hetherington was killed on Wednesday while covering the conflict in Libya, his last effort in a career in which he took risks to bring attention to the world's many wars. In his wrenching Oscar-nominated 2010 documentary Restrepo (co-directed with Sebastian Junger), Hetherington shone a light on the emotional toll suffered by a platoon of soldiers in Afghanistan; the same year, he made the short film Diary as a personal exploration of his experience as a combat journalist.
Hetherington's description of Diary:
'Diary' is a highly personal and experimental film that expresses the subjective experience of my work, and was made as an attempt to locate myself after ten years of reporting. It's a kaleidoscope of images that link our western reality to the seemingly distant worlds we see in the media.
The 19-minute film blends firsthand footage from Hetherington's travels, from chaotic cities to charred battlegrounds, war-torn Africa to the peaceful English countryside. (Warning: Some moments are difficult to watch and briefly depict violent events and their aftermath.) It's a haunting artifact in the wake of Hetherington's death, but also serves as poetic tribute to the work he was doing.

This is ridiculous this shows that now the situation in Libya i think these incidents will continue until Libyan government fell down international community should think on Libya how to solve this problem and surrounding countries of Libya have to try to solve this problem mainly the government immediately resign and put elections.
