Burundi's relations with its neighbours have been affected by security concerns. Hundreds of thousands of Burundian refugees have at various times crossed to neighboring Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Hundreds of thousands of Burundians are in neighboring countries as a result of the ongoing civil war. Most of them, more than 340,000 since 1993, are in Tanzania; some Burundian rebel groups have used neighboring countries as bases for insurgent activities. The 1993 embargo placed on Burundi by regional states hurt diplomatic relations with its neighbors. Burundi is a member of various international and regional organizations, including the United Nations, the African Union, the African Development Bank and the Francophonie; the Swedish Minister for Integration and Gender Equality, Nyamko Sabuni, was born in Burundi.

Murder in a Blue World is a 1973 Spanish-French science fiction crime horror film directed by Eloy de la Iglesia and starring Sue Lyon, Christopher Mitchum and Jean Sorel. The plot follows a respectable nurse, who seduces young men, takes them home to bed, listens to the post-coital beating of their hearts, stabs them to death with a surgical scalpel; the film takes some cues from Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange to the extent of being released on UK VHS as Clockwork Terror. Anna Vernia, a beautiful young nurse, receives a medal of recognition for her outstanding dedication to her patients at the medical center where she works, she is going out with Victor Sender, a doctor working in the same hospital. Victor is involved in a project that employs electro-shock therapy in violent criminals in an effort to turn them into model citizens. Crime is rampant in the city. There has been a number of unresolved killings of young men which have been attributed to a serial killer believed to be a sadistic homosexual.

A family is getting ready to watch Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange on television when they are assaulted by a gang of delinquents who knock at their door. The assailants, wearing red helmets, leather biker’s outfits, handling bullwhips smash the modern looking apartment, they leave the couple's young son unharmed. After their crime, there is a dispute among the four members of the gang. One gang member, David, is expelled from the group. Anna is a pop art collector, she is the highest bidder in an auction of Alex Raymond’s artwork for Flash Gordon. At the auction, she gives her phone number to her bidder rival, Toni, a young man with a handicapped leg. Anna lives alone in a large mansion on the outskirts of the city. After they have sex, Anna listens to Toni’s heartbeats while he sleeps and stabs him to death with a surgical scalpel, she disposes of Toni's body in a river. He begins to follow her. Wearing a wig and dressed matronly, Anna seduces Bruno, a narcissistic underwear model, who she has seen on TV commercials.

She kills him. His body falls next to the book Anna was reading: Vladimir Nabokov's novel "Lolita". Although Anna is still going out with Victor, she rebuffs his romantic advances. Dressed in drag, Anna enters a gay bar where she picks up Roman Mendoza, a gay man who she takes home. After dancing a waltz, Anna proposes to have sex, he is hesitant. He thought, he had never had sex with a woman before. While Anna was out, David entered her house after befriending the German Shepherd that guarded her property. Hiding behind curtains, David witnesses Anna seducing the young gay man and sees her stab him in the heart. Broken glass inside her house alerts Anna; when she looks outside she sees David playing with her dogs behind the mansion fence. Anna, pretending to be a maid, invites him in; when she is going to start her pre-murder routine, David shows her the surgical scalpel used by Anna to kill her victims. She has been hiding it inside a music box. David does not want to denounce her to the police. Through their monetary transactions, David begins to arouse Anna's personal interest.

David buys a motorcycle with the money, but the members of his former gang, who believe he has stolen a bounty from them, pursue him and leave him badly beaten. David is taken to the hospital. Since David was a violent criminal in the past, Victor wants to experiment on him the electro-shock therapy to turn killers like David into “useful citizens”. Anna is moved, she is not going to allow Victor to use David for his experiments. At night on New Year's Eve, Anna reads a poem by Edgar Allan Poe to David; when Victor arrives he finds. In another room, the criminal patients in Victor's experiment go berserk, savagely killing each other. Sue Lyon as Ana Vernia Christopher Mitchum as David Jean Sorel as Dr. Victor Sender Ramón Pons as Toni Charly Bravo as Bruno Alfredo Alba as Román Mendoza Antonio del Real as Mick David Carpenter as Phil Ramón Tejela as Nicola The original Spanish title Una gota de sangre para morir amando translates as A Drop of Blood to Die Loving and the film was theatrically released in France as Le bal du vaudou and in the United States as To Love, Perhaps to Die with the latter title a closer translation of the Spanish.

In the mid-1980s Empire Video released the film on UK VHS as Clockwork Terror in an attempt to sell it as a sequel to A Clockwork Orange and its following British video and DVD releases were titled Murder in a Blue World in reference to the fictional Blue Drink featured in the film. The film takes some cues from Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange to the extent that it was released on 1980s UK VHS as Clockwork Terror. Like its inspiration source the film is set in a near-future dystopian world where sadistic gangs attack and steal from innocent people on the streets and in their homes. To elaborate the film plays on the Ludovico Technique of its predecessor as a neo-Fascist government tries to fight these crimes by conducting sinister mind-control experiments on captured criminals; this treatment backfires with bloody results at the end of the film where the treated subjects turn berserk and kill each other. The science fiction aesthetic of the film is more pronounced compared to Kubrick's film with its retro-futuristic setting als

Sandugo is a Filipino fictional superhero team created by Ner Pedrina. In most incarnations, its roster includes several Filipino characters based on myths and thus many of them are recognizable to the viewing public; the original, line-up is Sandata, Supremo and Sidapa. The team was assisted by Bernardo Karpio known as the Kapampangan God Apu Malyari, who became the first hero to be invited by the four founders; the team soon included Narra, Lam-ang, Anino and reservists Bato and Datu Pag-asa. Created by writer/artist Ner Pedrina, the team first appeared in Handicrapcomix #5. Most team members have distinctly Filipino attributes, such as having Kapampangan or Tagalog heritage. Throughout most of its history, the team has worked with the government to deal with super-powered villains; the team made its debut in Handicrapcomix #5.

In 2007 they were launched in Sanduguan comics. The team has been well received since inception, it was included in the well known website internationalhero.co.uk that spotlights other countries characters aside from the big two mainstream publishers of the same genre. The team's concept was loosely based on the sanduguan ritual done by recruited Katipuneros who fought the Spanish occupation in Philippine History as their oath to the movement; the team Sandugo was formed when the Maharlikan god of evil Siginarugan escaped his hundreds of years imprisonment and decided to wreak havoc on the new world. Creating monstrous automatons, he sowed fear and destruction in the mega city of Kalayaan known as Clarkfield in Pampanga. Sandata in his civilian identity was in the area, jumped in to stop the rampaging monsters, he was soon joined by the beautiful Diwata, warned of the event in her sanctorium. Sidapa, the hand of death alarmed by the unscheduled deaths of civilians soon joined to investigate. A mysterious figure saw what was transpiring on television decided to survey the commotion.

The four heroes having difficulty in the battle decided to pool their resources managed to defeat the monster and faced the evil maharlikan. The fight continuous for a length of time until Siginarugan was exhausted due to not being in full power yet, he was buried by a large amount of rubbles thrown from a distance by the mysterious figure. Drained and powerless, the evil dark god escaped retribution; the four seeing the carnage and destruction caused by the battle has decided to band together to prevent similar events from happening. Supremo called the team Sandugo. During their early days, the team operated from Diwata's sanctorium located in Arayat mountain, having access to various mystical means to help them in their cause. Soon, they learned the identity of the mysterious figure who helped them in their first battle with Siginarugan; the mysterious figure was revealed to the legendary strong man of Philippine myths. Soon thereafter, they recruited various heroes to fill their team, they have decided to have an active roster of eight heroes in relation to the number of provinces who waged war against the Spanish regime.

It was at this time that they were able to established their charter and work with the government, helping in extra-special matters that cannot be resolved by the resources of the government. The team Sandugo first appeared in Handicrapcomix #5, February 1998, in which they fought various malignos that crossed-over to the earth realm; this is the team's first meeting with Bato The Agimat Warrior.
