The PBS program Independent Lens last evening was a film called "Recycle." It was about a Jordanian fellow and followed him about during his days collecting corrugated cardboard from the streets to recycle and during discussions with his friends about their former neighbor Zarqawi.  If there was a co-star of the film it could have been the bright blue diesel Doka he drove endlessly while searching the city streets for the cardboard, heading for worship or trying to buy camel's milk.  


Plenty of behind-the-wheel (and even some under-the-hood)  footage.  A simple truck being used as a truck in an Arabic language film with English subtitles.  Worth a look if you need a diesel Doka fix because you'll never find as much screen time devoted to one.  I think it even slowed the movie action down.
