Over 6,000 men served and 19 fell in the Congo Battalion (1960-64), Sweden's most dramatic and contentious UN operation. Many of the participants have borne the experience as a lifelong, well-hidden trauma. A visit to the Congo after fifty years causes some of them to finally open up and tell the things that they haven't even been able to say to their closest family.

'Hell Over Sofia - 20 Years Of Chaos And Confusion', the new DVD from Swedish extreme metallers HYPOCRISY. The DVD contains footage of the band's February 27, 2010 concert at the Blue Box club in Sofia, Bulgaria. Guitarist Mikael Hedlund states, "It was a show that had everything! The crowd was helping us doing one of our best shows ever in our history and it was recorded with several cameras. The DVD will also contain a one-and-a-half-hour documentary that will show you our 20 years of chaos and confusion." He adds, "We would like to give our fans the true story of the past and give them all the details what have happened on our journey over all these years. There are secrets that never have been told plus pictures and clips that never have been shown. This DVD will give you the full cover of HYPOCRISY!"
The much adored Swedish death metal band, Hypocrisy, is showcased in both its live and recorded glory on this comprehensive audiovisual record of their significant music career. Partially filmed live at Germany's Wacken Open Air Festival in 1998, LIVE & CLIPS captures a historic performance (the concert marked their return to the stage after a near breakup) that ranks with their best. In addition to their incredibly loud and immensely energetic performance, six music videos, spanning from 1992's "Left To Rot" to 1997's "The Final Chapter," are included.
