Souheil Bachar
Im Rahmen von *interfiction high noon*
Hostage: The Bachar Tapes (English Version)
2001, (16.54 min.)
Hostage: The Bachar Tapes (English Version) is an experimental documentary about "The Western Hostage Crisis."
The crisis refers to the abduction and detention of Westerners like Terry
Anderson, and Terry Waite in Lebanon in the
80s and early 90s by "Islamic militants."
This episode directly and indirectly
consumed Lebanese, U.S., French, and British political and public life, and
precipitated a number of high-profile political scandals like the Iran-Contra
affair in the U.S.
In Hostage: The Bachar Tapes (English version), the "Western Hostage Crisis" is
examined through the testimony of Souheil Bachar.
Mr. Bachar was held hostage in Lebanon between 1983 and 1993. What is
remarkable about Souheil's captivity
is that he was the only Arab to have been detained with the Western hostages
kidnapped in Beirut in the 1980s.
In fact, Souheil was held for 3 months in
1985 in the same cell as five American men: Terry Anderson, Thomas Sutherland,
Benjamin Weir, Marting Jenco, and David Jacobsen.

In 1999, Bachar collaborated with The Atlas Group (a non-profit cultural research foundation based in Lebanon) to produce 53 videotapes about his captivity.
Tapes #17 and #31 are the only two tapes Bachar makes available outside of Lebanon. In the tapes, Bachar addresses the cultural, textual, and sexual aspects of his detention with the Americans."
