The Cold War was based on fear and deterrence. In both the East and the West, propaganda films were made to prepare audiences for the worst: a nuclear attack. While some of these films were naive and clumsy, others were more realistic, as can be seen in the Hungarian 16mm- film ‘Helenes'. Christoph Draeger used this film, which he found in 1997 in a defunct training camp of the Hungarian army. The editing, sound and monotonous voice bring to mind Alain Resnais' documentary masterpiece 'Nuit et Brouillard’. The voice-over of this film is subtitled by using most of George Bush 's famous inauguration speech, in which he inflicted serious inflationary damage upon the concept of 'freedom' by repeating it no less than 41 times.
