Aroview: A consistently intriguing omnibus of 11 short films made by various top directors about the catastrophic events of September 11, 2001 in New York – each film being 11 minutes, 9 seconds and 1 frame in duration.

With a variety of approaches, including direct and oblique dramatisations, impassioned monologues, experimental montages, and more, this manages to suggest and provoke numerous facets of this epoch-making disaster. When first released, this collection garnered as much controversy as any piece of ‘aftermath art’, and though not faultless, with distance many of the pieces have benefited. Standouts segments include those by Ken Loach, Alejandro González Iñárritu, Mira Nair, Amos Gitai and Shohei Imamura.
