abstract="This article analyzes the representational strategies used to show, narrate, and contextualize sexual violence during past military conflicts in Helke Sander's 1992 documentary film <i>BeFreier und BeFreite</i> (<i>Liberators Take Liberties</i>) and Wojciech Tochman's 2010 reportage <i>Dzisiaj narysujemy śmierć</i> (<i>Today We're Going to Draw Death</i>). My comparative analysis of the formal strategies used by Sander and Tochman to effectively diminish various modes of &quot;historical distance&quot; serves to promote a discussion on the potential of each medium to evoke empathetic understanding of the trauma of wartime rape victims in the present.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
