The Balkans Wars were once again in the focus of interest for cameramen. During the second Balkans war, besides foreign cameramen, film reporters of the states at war were also involved. Apart from the very few combat actions, they filmed pictures of the newly occupied, actually the reoccupied Macedonian areas, naming them as “Serbian”, “Bulgarian” or “Greek”, depending on the zone of occupation referred to.
According to the opinion of the people who have done research on these films, the most successful film from that period is “Under Machine-gun Fire”, made by the German documentarist Isidor Robert Schwobthaler, for the British producer Cherry Kearton, and initiated by the Greek king.
