Focusing on the 1981 Provos (Irish Hunger Strikes), Ola Stahl's YouTube School essay utilized simultaneous direct narratives of both IRA and Loyalists to detail the Irish prison system under British rule in the late 1970's/early 1980's.
For this edition he made a dual projection, one with interviews of Irish republican prisoners and another interviews of loyalists, along with contemporaneous news clips. The audience was encouraged to get up out of their chairs and walk around the space, going back and forth between the projections. The viewing experience underscored the intricacies inherent, yet commonly undermined, within any political struggle, and how difficult it is to have the whole picture.
