When I was happy and uninformed:For writer G.G. Marques ' the most glorious year in the world' was 1957 and one of the mot important political events the departure of Sir Anthony Eden from the international political scene. The First part of the drama also recalls other events that took place in that year: the death of Humphrey Bogart, the Suez crisis, the visit of the Vice president of the Ua Richard Nixon to Africa, the explosion of the C47 plane carrying the President of the Philippines Maygsasay, tha ban on rock´n roll on Havana Television, the man of the year- Nikita Krushchev, and his appearnce on TV screens in the USA. While this part of the programme is a combination of archive matrial and acted sequences, the second part, which is exclusively acted, provides a stylised presentation of Patricio Kelly - the leader of the Argentinian revolutionary Alliance, 'whom women admired for the same reason thay admired Humphrey Bogart'. PROGRAMME SIGNIFICANCE FOR INPUT: The programme is experimental , innovate in form and content, unusual.
