Abstract:	Influence of Mars employs filmmaking to reveal hidden instinctual behaviour. The filmmaker asks her ten year old son, Harvey, about his arsenal of weapons, many of which are intended for other use; the handle of a back brush, juggling batons, and a plastic cricket stump. Despite his enthusiasm for maiming and killing Harvey has no idea why we have wars.
