After landing in Tripoli, it took further three days for the date and location of the interview to be finally confirmed. This short film is a video-diary of the journalist George Negus wait for the colonel. It shows the sleepy atmosphere of Tripoli in 2010, and a constant air of anxiety shown by Libyan authorities about the presence of a rolling camera. It also shows the ubiquitous presence of Gaddafi gazing down at the city from billboards two years before his death. Watch the interview here: http://youtu.be/bUhZmO6P0NU
