Wide Angle: Saddam's Ultimate Solution
In 1988, Saddam launched a series of biological and chemical attacks against the Kurds, the tragic long-term effects of which are only now becoming apparent. British filmmaker Gwynne Roberts shot inside Iraqi Kurdistan for five years to prepare this unique report on the group that may play a crucial role, equivalent to that of Afghanistan's Northern Alliance, in any military attempt to overthrow Saddam's bloody regime.

Wide Angle: Greetings from Grozny
Small and fiercely independent, the republic of Chechnya has been embroiled for years in a war for self-determination against Russia.
