Interpretation
Model opinion, not evidence: mood: tense; themes: military conflict, destruction; style notes: black-and-white, wide and medium shots, natural lighting, documentary-style framing

A tank is shown in a hilly, grassy terrain, with smoke rising near it in one frame. The scene shifts to a wide view of a barren hillside and then to a damaged tank in a field.

The record

US Government work The record names a federal body as the creating agency. A work prepared by an officer or employee of the United States Government as part of that person's official duties has no US copyright (17 U.S.C. 105; before 1978, section 8 of the 1909 Act). This says nothing about copyright outside the United States, or about music, stock footage or other material the film may incorporate. Evidence dossier. The finding concerns the US copyright record for the film; it is not clearance for any use, and this page's annotation is machine output.
