United Red Army ( The Young Man Was, Part I) (2011, Naeem Mohaiemen)

The first film, United Red Army (2011), is about a Japan Airlines flight hijacked by the Japanese Red Army in 1977, on a runway at the airport in Dhaka, Bangladesh. An air force chief negotiates with the hijackers. Their conversation is peculiar. The hijackers are eager for the liberation of Palestine, except, as the negotiator tells them, their protest is costing this impoverished new country Bangladesh having been established only six years before more than it can afford.
