I saw this film in Edinburgh 40 years ago at a time when my generation were actively protesting against the war.

Very interesting to see it again after all this time.

And now, as a musician, I can also take time to be listen carefully to (and be mightily impressed by) Leo Brouwer's sound track.

Thanks for posting this, I wonder if you've got any more of it.
