A video filmed on a mobile phone by the rebels who captured and killed Gaddafi was used as a reference. The work depicts the last minute of the life of the Libyan dictator.
Muammar Muhammad Abu Minyar al-Gaddafi (1942 – 2011), commonly known as Colonel Gaddafi, was a Libyan revolutionary, politician and political theorist. He governed Libya as Revolutionary Chairman of the Libyan Arab Republic from 1969 to 1977 and then as the "Brotherly Leader" of the Great Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya from 1977 to 2011. He was initially ideologically committed to Arab nationalism and Arab socialism but later ruled according to his own Third International Theory.
