One of these young revolutionaries is a beautiful girl called Yulin. As Civil War looms, Rittenberg gets more and more deeply committed. American foreign policy is ostensibly to broker a peace between Mao and Chiang. In reality, America is backing Chiang's utterly corrupt regime in the belief that the Generalissimo is bound to win a Civil War. But Mao is also looking West, towards America. Rittenberg becomes directly involved in these secret overtures. He dreams of becoming a bridge between America a new China. But nobody in Washington is really listening. In scenes with General Marshall and President Truman we see how America stumbled yet again into a disastrous foreign policy blunder. Rittenberg treks north, to Mao's base in Yan'an. He meets Mao. Mao gives him a job. He also hooks up again with Yulin. They fall in love. They marry. Civil War erupts. Rittenberg and Yulin are with Mao as he inflicts defeat after defeat on Chiang's forces. America has backed the wrong horse. As Mao's army claims victory and the Generalissimo flees the country, Rittenberg's dream is still alive. He is ordered to Beijing. He believes that this is his moment. It's a cruel deception. After America had ignored Mao's overtures, the Chinese saw no choice but to renew their old alliance with the Russians. On orders from Moscow, Rittenberg is arrested as an American spy. He experiences for himself the dark and deadly side of the movement to which he has pledged his full allegiance: the nightmare of the Chinese Communist penal system. On Stalin's death, in 1953, Rittenberg is released. He stays in China. He stays with Yulin. All this is true. It is historical fact. And Sidney Rittenberg is still going strong, at 93 - a living witness to the revolution that changed the world and that we see, in this movie, for the first time, from a completely fresh perspective.

70 ::: Tim Minchin: So Live (2007) ::: comedy ::: Tim Minchin's live concert captured for this DVD, performed at the Sydney Opera House, in one of the smaller Studio Theatre rooms. This is an intimate show and the vibe within the venue is a little proper, but they do seem to enjoy themselves. Tim's act is a compilation of pieces from his successful stage shows Dark Side and So Rock, combining spoken stand-up routines with hilariously witty musical numbers on the piano - an instrument on which Tim is clearly more than adept. To my mind, Tim's comedic forte combines the 'rock' aspirations of Tenacious D with the supreme wit and cabaret-style musical flair of Neil Innes' Bonzo Dog Band. He's a fantastic musician, an intelligent, thought-provoking lyricist and a side-splittingly hilarious showman.

138 ::: Winter's Watch (2017) ::: documentary ::: Located ten miles off the coast of mainland New England, the Oceanic Hotel is the grand, yet far-from-modern home to the thousands of guests who brave the choppy seas to visit during the warmer spring and summer months. Off-season, the hotel and the 43-acre Star Island on which it sits is home to one woman - its winter caretaker who braves the colder, darker months of inclement weather by embracing the solitude and finding inspiration, and life, in what would otherwise be considered the 'bones' of winter. Intrepid photographer Alexandra de Steiguer embraces five cold months of solitude year after year on a remote island group miles off the coast of Maine in her role as winter caretaker. Since 1997, Star Island in the Isles of Shoals has had this lone winter resident sharing a very small world with only the seals, seabirds, twenty-nine historic buildings, and a landscape so spare and forbidding that the viewer finds it difficult to believe that nearly twenty years of inspiration could come from such a place. Director Brian Bolster's beautifully filmed documentary echoes - quietly but gorgeously - the still-frame photography of his subject, but also shows us how her richly inspired outlook - looking out from the shores of this small island - has caused her to also look inward in ways most people only aspire to. Philosophical, contemplative, engaging, beautiful and engaging, this short film fits informally into a trilogy of sorts created by Brian Bolster as he shares the lives of people working for extended periods in isolated environments, who have - in their solitude - become not only deeply connected to their "place", but who have somehow deepened their connection to the wider world as well.

165 ::: Busted: The Citizen's Guide to Surviving Police Encounters (2004) ::: documentary ::: Most people don't know their basic constitutional rights, and those who do usually waive them in the face of police intimidation. Worse, police rely on people's fear and ignorance of the law to trick them into waiving their rights, which often lands them in jail. That's why Flex Your Rights (FyR) -- a Washington, DC-based educational group -- created BUSTED: The Citizen's Guide to Surviving Police Encounters. This fun 45-minute educational DVD realistically depicts three common police scenarios -- traffic stop, street stop, and home entry. Narrator Ira Glasser, a former ACLU executive director, shows you how to avoid cops' "gotcha games" as they try to trick you into waiving your rights; how to be courteous but not intimidated by police tactics; and how phrases such as "I don't consent to any searches" can keep you out of jail. According to Steve Silverman, BUSTED's writer and FyR's executive director, "We made BUSTED for anyone who's afraid that their looks or lifestyle makes them a target for law enforcement. This includes skaters, smokers, rockers, and freedom-loving badasses of all sorts."
166 ::: The Passion of the Mao (2006) ::: documentary ::: Who knew that Communism could be so funny? This madcap documentary reexamines the Cultural Revolution and restores the once bright reputation of Mao Zedong. "The Passion of the Mao" begins by correcting misconceptions about Mao's early years. Unlike the tyrants with whom he is usually compared, Mao was a successful scholar and businessman before he became a rabble-rouser. By the mid1950s, he had unified China, spurred an impressive rate of growth, restructured the education system, and improved living standards. Then he became a Maoist. Mao devoted the rest of his life to eliminating the centralized Soviet bureaucracy he and his colleagues had built. The film takes viewers back to the 1960s. Successful women and men, some now professors at major universities in the West, credit Mao and especially the Cultural Revolution for making them feminists and allowing them access to education. During the Cultural Revolution, Mao brought Western-style ballets and operas, reinterpreted in Chinese form, to China's villages. Peasants chose leaders who represented their true interests, and rural communities built schools independent of the central government. And what about the anti-Maoist beliefs that have sullied the reputation of the man once referred to as "the sun in the sky?" They are part of a vast radical conspiracy, the result of propaganda churned out by the same people who turned the tanks on the Tiananmen demonstrators.

217 ::: Zero Hour (1992) ::: short ::: The transgression and confrontation is re-enacted in this brilliant fugue-like film by Dana Plays constructed of found footage, and concerning both American involvement in oversees conflict and the resultant unseen plight of the child refugee.

In Zero Hour, the results - the products of war return to the initial cite of production: an assumed audience of Americans, middle-class citizens of an ideal suburban dream who have somehow foregone the immediate experiences and repercussion of mass destruction and displacement. The gaze rests on us. We are the sugar-stated, hyper and unaware violator, an audience whose relationship to world events is nowhere more homogeneous than in or communal incubation and guilt.

There is a high degree of complexity in proportions and correspondence with the other colors in one mise en scčne; the shape visible in yellow will become color indifferent if depicted in green, i.e. an object that is perfect in yellow, will be read as secondary, and grayed out in human perception, if painted in a different color. Moving Painting film series project has reference to a long track in history of visual arts in exploration of correlation of music and shape animation. Most famous examples include Viking Eggeling, "Diagonal Symphony", "Space Modulator" by László Moholy-Nagy [c 1942]., "DREITEILIGE FARBSONATINE" (1923) by Ludwig Hirschfeld-Mack, Oskar Fischinger with his 'Sound Scrolls', Ballet Mécanique (1924) by Fernand Léger It was fascinating to invent the ways of illustrating music in film, to animate an image based on parameters of a different media - music. Experiments were going on for as long as we know cinematography with some major project to contribute by the era of psychedelic reality in the sixties.

Dohler has also inspired artists and filmmakers such as Robert Crumb (Fritz the Cat), J.J. Abrams (Creator of TV show Lost ) and Art Speigelman ( Maus ) with his underground comix character ProJunior, and his DIY filmmaking magazine, Cinemagic. Mild-mannered and unassuming, Dohler started making wholesome sci-fi films in the Baltimore area in 1976, but recently began including nudity and gore in his movies to please distributors. At age 59 he's just finished his most gratuitous movie to date and it's selling well, yet Dohler feels "sick of the exploitative stuff" and is considering giving up the Blood, Boobs and Beast formula.

409 ::: Loops (1973) ::: drama ::: In the Summer of 1972 I agreed to direct and act in several porno loops. I contacted William Markle, a local New York Cinematographer, and asked him if he had an interest in creating a documentary, in partnership with me, about a day in the life of a pornographer. He jumped at the chance. In 1972 porno was all the rage, and we thought that a documentary, or docudrama about the making of XXX rated films might just be successful at the box office. The actors who participated in the shooting of the loops were: Myself, Harry Reems, Fred Lincoln, Lucy Grantham, Sargeant Tina, and several Gypsies. The footage turned out to be hilarious, but it needed another element in order to hold an audience's interest for feature length. I wrote a story about a film maker, who was making porno on the side, unbeknownst to Mrs. Film maker. We Hired an actress/belly dancer named Cathy Joyce to play my wife, and shot the script I had written. We intercut the new dramatized scenes of the film maker and his wife with the original documentary footage of the making of porno loops, and the result was a feature length docudrama, or docucomedy called "LOOPS". In the Fall of 1972 Bill Markle and I began the process of screening our project for potential distributors. Everybody saw it; MGM, Avco Embassy, Columbia, Paramount, Warners. Heady times for a couple of young film makers. In the end none of the majors had the guts to pull the trigger on this kind of project. We came close with Warners, but they finally decided against it. During one of the screenings, Sean Cunningham (Last House On the Left, Friday the Thirteenth)began weeping. He saw "LOOPS" as the story of his life, right down to having the same first name as the main character. (Me) So Bill and I sold the picture to Cunningham. The sale figure didn't exactly break the bank, but it was way more than it cost to make so Bill and I were Happy. After some re-shooting and re-editing, Cunningham opened "LOOPS" to mixed reviews and pretty negative box office. This movie seems to have completely disappeared from the face of the earth. In the mid Seventies "LOOPS" was in the archives of the Lincoln Center Film Society, but since then has fallen through the cracks. Cunningham may, or may not still own the rights to this picture, but to my knowledge, no attempt has been made to release "LOOPS" in video or dvd.

612 ::: "Trigger Flaws" (2016) ::: comedy ::: A quintessential California unicorn princess warrior-goddess and her friends meticulously navigate their paths to becoming one with their spiritual selves and even when they are in true mindfulness, sometimes their humanity still gets in the way. The show follows Egypt, a contemporary chic Southern Californian whose relentless search for spiritual and mental enlightenment never ends. With the help of her friends, all of whom can read each other's thoughts (also accompanied by her Shaman, Harry Paul only visible to her), she approaches her goal of perfecting her higher-self with all the vigor one might expect from an artist in the uber-liberal landscape of modern day Los Angeles. However, due to her most human qualities, and comedic sensibilities that invoke the essence of Lucille Ball and Carol Burnett type silliness, she sometimes falls short of the perfection that she seeks. And while these failings to attain true oneness and synchronicity with the universe probably make her more complete as an individual and the higher being that she aspires to be, she'll never stop trying to have all of her spiritual ducks in a neat little row. Of course this will never happen, but that is precisely the journey that the audience can laugh at and relate to. Another aspect of Egypt's world, is her love and respect of culture and fashion. Both of which are manifestations of her love for life and her unending quest for beauty in the world, and this becomes abundantly clear when we get to know the people that surround her. Holly, her best friend and co-conspirator in all things ethereal, shares this keen sense of art and fashion which often becomes apparent in their "shared" thoughts and jokes. All of her female friends participate in this shared-mind convention that drives the comedy of the show, but Holly's thoughts are most closely related to Egypt's and their similar sensibilities and goals reinforce that throughout the show. Then there's Harvey, a talented musician, and Egypt's best guy friend, who is only more evidence of her love for the arts. It's a purely platonic relationship, and even though it's pretty clear he envisions it as something more, she's very careful to not blur the lines. However, that doesn't mean their situation doesn't pop up every now and then in his or her female friends' thoughts and cause awkward moments. All of these elements and more add up to an easy-going, upbeat, new-age, positive energy comedy that not only inspires the viewer, but reminds them that although one may be best served by employing the methods and practices of meditation, and living a healthy metaphysical lifestyle, there's still plenty of room to not take ourselves too seriously, and to lean on our friends when the world doesn't make complete sense.

814 ::: Rules of the Road (1993) ::: short ::: Rules of the Road tells the story of a love affair and its demise through one of the primary objects shared by the couple: an old beige station wagon with fake wood paneling along the sides. A typical American family car for an atypical American family, it provides the women at first with all the familiar comforts. But when their relationship ends, the car becomes the property of one woman and the bane of the other's existence. Even long after their separation, this tangible reminder of their life together--and thousands of its imitators--continues to prowl the streets of the city, haunting the woman who no longer holds the keys either to the car or the other woman's heart. Rules of the Road is also study in theme and variations. In this case, the theme is the standard wagon. The variations are a consequence of experience, which transforms the object and makes us continually invest it with new meanings. This sense of constant change happens during the course of the film just as surely as it happens to us in our daily lives. Through spoken text, popular music and images from the streets of New York, Rules of the Road takes a somewhat whimsical, somewhat caustic look at how our dreams of freedom, pleasure, security, and family are so often symbolized by the automobile.

817 ::: Broder Gabrielsen (1966) ::: drama ::: "Broder Gabrielsen" vekket i sin tid meget stor debatt, og allerede under innspillingen av filmen gikk břlgene hřyt i pressen. Filmen retter en sterk advarsel mot religiřs fanatisme og mot samtidens vekkeslsespredikanter, og den mřtte da ogsĺ sterk motbřr fra enkelte av disse. I filmen mřter vi den noksĺ ubetydelige legpredikanten, Broder Gabrielsen (Alf Malland), som oppdager hvordan moderne musikk, rytmer og ekstase gir stor suksess nĺr det gjelder ĺ fĺ tilhřrerne til sin forkynnelse. Han fĺr snart sitt store gjennombrudd, og holder ekstatiske vekkelsesmřter med tungetale og "helbredelser" ved hjelp av břnn. Det ender i mismot og nederlag da undrene uteblir for Gabrielsen, og personlig tragedier for de som har latt seg lede.

The country's position on the issue of immigration and its impacts on society comes with a search within one of its largest one: the Albanian population.

822 ::: Return to Byzantium: The Art and Life of Lilian Broca (2012) ::: documentary ::: Return to Byzantium is the story of a homecoming - an artistic and physical return to a Romania which Lilian's family was forced to flee more than half a century ago but which she never abandoned. Lilian Broca first became aware of her artistic nature while a young girl growing up in Romania during the 1950's. At the age of 7 her parents enrolled her in art classes. However, the country's communist regime didn't encourage imagination or self-expression and her introduction to drawing and painting was limited. She recalls the day that the drab, grey world of Soviet-shadowed Bucharest was suddenly illuminated by her first glimpse of real art: a brilliant Byzantine icon illuminated by a shaft of golden sunlight in the neighbourhood church. For the first time in her life, Broca was captivated by the radiant splendour of an image. Even without any religious reference, the icon's beauty held her in its thrall. In the words of eminent Romanian art critic Pavel Susara, "...Lilian Broca does not regard herself as an artist locked in her studio, but as someone who tries to resolve a fundamental problem, someone who tries to find her roots, rebuild her intrinsic coherence and regain her identity." Lilian Broca combines a variety of cultural, religious and artistic traditions - Romanian orthodox, Hebrew, Western and North American, thus becoming a symbolic focal point of artistic and inter-civilisational dialogue in our contemporary globalised cultural landscape.

825 ::: The Wedding Video (2003) ::: comedy ::: You're invited to the wackiest wedding since Robert Altman last threw the rice, where no one is polite and everyone "acts" real. What is truth, and what is fiction? How does one discern reality from pretense? These are serious questions, but if you're looking for answers ŕ la Japanese abstraction, German expressionism or Swedish nihilism, keep looking, because The Wedding Video has the answer, "REAL WORLD" style. In the first film to come out of the MTV phenomenon, Norman Korpi (the gay guy from "Real World-New York") and creative partner Clint Cowen have made a deliciously wicked satire that skewers all the clichés and conventions of the reality show. Norm plays "Norm" who hires "Clint" to film his gay wedding. He invites his best friends - all popular "Real World" alums - and has Clint tape them as they arrive for the bachelor party and ceremony. The cast members have great fun parodying the on-air personas that MTV created for them through its editing: San Francisco's Rachel is now the ultimate self-centered bitch, London's Lars has his nose stuck up so high he might die from asphyxiation, and New York's Heather B. becomes a walking-talking hip-hop video. And in the "true" manner of such shows, every backstab, every catfight, and every shocking revelation is caught on videotape for our tawdry entertainment. As the reality genre pushes the envelope - and strains credibility - it becomes ripe for parody; who better to do it than the people who created it in the first place?

830 ::: The Global Village Project (2011) ::: documentary ::: The Global Village School (GVS) in Atlanta GA is a small nonprofit organization with a mission to '...provide adolescent survivors of war, whose formal education has been significantly interrupted by war and prolonged stays in refugee camps, with the enhanced educational and social services they need to become fully participating citizens in the democratic process of the United States'. The school opened in August 2008 and currently provides a unique education to 30 girls from around the globe, aged 13 yrs - 23yrs. It is a haven for these displaced young women from Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Somalia, Kenya, Rwanda, Sudan, Zimbabwe, Burma and Thailand, who have recently entered the US, through the United States Refugee Relocation Program. The multi-cultural environment of GVS offers an alternative to the larger public schools, in which most refugee children are usually placed on arrival to the US, in which they get lost within the system, and will never achieve their full potential. This documentary film, narrated by Matthew Lillard, will be shown on a national and international level to increase understanding of the refugee community and, at the same time, contribute to the sustainability of the school. The film will focus on two specific areas: 1. The community and history of the girls, their unique stories of the homes they were forced to leave, their journeys to the US and their future in the next generation of fully participating US citizens. 2. Raise awareness within the US that these children are not just beyond our borders, but new US citizens who will help build our country's future. We hope that, by working together to create this unique film, the young women of the Global Village School will be a voice for the 35,000 refugee children that are relocated to the US every year.

In San Francisco, a decapitated dead body is brought to the morgue, the victim who died in a car accident. The victim is purported to be socialite Jefferson Monk. The story several days earlier. Monk, by chance, meets renowned detective partners Jack Packard and Doc Long at a Russian dance/dinner club. Monk, who is accompanied at the club by a woman only identifying herself as Miss Jean, a woman Monk purportedly does not know and just inserted herself into his evening without invitation, informs the detective pair that someone is trying to kill him, he believing it the unknown man with a peg leg and carrying a small black bag who has been following him. One year ago, Monk was contacted by a mystic named Mr. G, a philosopher with a sacred order, who seemed to be peripherally related to a trip to the Far East that Monk and his loving wife Ellen Monk made. G's primary purpose for contacting Monk was to make him an offer: to purchase his head for $10,000 after he dies due to his resemblance to the order's founder, a man who died one thousand years ago but whose dead body, which Monk saw and does admit looks like him, has been kept eternally young. G believes that Monk may be the reincarnation of the founder. G prophesied that unless Monk accepted the offer, he and Ellen would not survive the night. Further prophesies by G were that Ellen would become an invalid - which has come true, Ellen now confined to a wheelchair - and that Monk would die exactly one year to the date of their meeting, that date approaching within days. Monk believes the peg leg's bag is ultimately for his head. Since that meeting with G, Monk has slowly descended into a near state of madness due to the anxiety. Packard and Long take the case, agreeing to protect Monk and find out who is trying to kill him. With a couple of mysterious deaths associated with the case in the intervening time and with Packard and Long able to discover the truth behind some of the evidence Monk provides to them, is the dead man in the morgue truly Monk, or is there something bigger at play?

The writings are moving and complex, operating both as emotional touchstone and an inspiration for the mosaic structure of the film itself. The range of subjects are varied but return often to the nature of love and family, the pain of betrayal, and the mothers they lost or never had. Always a central back-drop is the frightening world that awaits them outside the thick steel gate. This film, like the poems within it, opens a door to an intimate universe. Voices will be heard, clearly and at long last, by a country that had no place for them and a world that, until now, has turned a deaf ear. For in the histories and hearts of these girls resonate quandaries that have drawn poets for millennia and are no less vital today. And in their emerging voices and lives there is something else revealed: a hope and a challenge; that the world might be home to us all.

Emmy-award winning journalist and documentary filmmaker Reed Cowan is a former Mormon who served a two-year mission door-to-door for the Mormon Church. His access to high-level Mormons & Mormon communications on the matter, coupled with his OUT status as a gay man and father of two adopted sons has provided a compelling and at times shocking look at the Mormon way of doing business against LGBT people.

1346 ::: SiDiKi (2014) ::: documentary ::: Running on the dusty roads of Guinea at the age of fourteen, Sidiki's legs stop working. He falls down- mysteriously paralyzed. Polio or bad spirits, nobody cures him. He falls again, but this time into a deep depression. In Guinea, as in most other cultures, there are prejudices and preconceived notions of those who are different; they blind us to the abilities that lie within. Unwilling to accept this fate, Sidiki literally takes matters into his own hands, and in the village where he was discarded he teaches himself how to dance without legs. Participating in the rite-of-passage ceremony of his village (to dance the traditional steps for continuous hours) Sidiki becomes a man, changing the way his people view those labeled as disabled. A grown man, Sidiki Conde is now revered in his native country as a master of music and dance, and his life's work is to empower people all over the world to accept their own abilities and feel free to dance as they are. This feature-length documentary SiDiKi takes the audience on a journey from Sidiki's current home in New York City's East Village to the Guinean village of Mancellia that awakened his spirit through dance. The journey is dotted with multiple stops in small towns and villages that welcome Sidiki. Those with disabilities come out of hiding and flock to Sidiki's message of hope. Paralleling this journey is the transformation of students from the Brookville Center for Children's Services who are learning to cope with their own disabilities by finding their inner rhythm through dancing in one of Sidiki's week-long workshops. They struggle to see beyond their limitations, but over time, they are strengthened by the power of self-acceptance and freedom of movement. SiDiKi is shot with a sensitive cinema vérité lens with music original to Sidiki and his band highlighted throughout. Notably, one of the goals of the film is to raise awareness of the powerful affect dance and the arts have on the human spirit. At the same time, SiDiKi illuminates the plight of the disabled in Guinea and around the world, it speaks to the universal themes of perseverance and triumph. SiDiKi challenges societies' preconceptions on disabilities and stimulates the audience to find their own courageous rhythm; it confronts our intolerance toward those who are atypical, opening our eyes to the truth that ability is born from within, not from body, and that we each move to a beat of our own.

1413 ::: The Least of These (2009) ::: documentary ::: THE LEAST OF THESE explores one of the most controversial aspects of American immigration policy: family detention. As part of the Bush administration policy to end what they termed the "catch and release" of undocumented immigrants, the U.S. government opened the T. Don Hutto Residential Center in May 2006 as a prototype family detention facility. The facility is a former medium-security prison in central Texas operated by CCA, the largest private prison operator in the country. The facility houses immigrant children and their parents from all over the world who are awaiting asylum hearings or deportation proceedings. The facility was initially activated with little media attention or public knowledge. Soon, however, immigration attorney Barbara Hines was contacted by detainees seeking representation, and she became increasingly concerned about the troubling conditions there. She joined forces with Vanita Gupta of the ACLU and Michelle Brané of the Women's Refugee Commission to investigate conditions and seek changes. Their efforts were initially hampered by a lack of openness and oversight within the Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) organization. Undeterred, the three attorneys attempted to bring about changes in both policy and conditions, by making their findings public, encouraging involvement by activists and the media, and ultimately by filing a historic lawsuit. As these events unfold, the film explores the government rationale for family detention, conditions at the facility, collateral damage, and the role (and limits) of community activism in bringing change. The film leads viewers to consider how core American rights and values - due process, presumption of innocence, upholding the family structure as the basic unit of civil society, and America as a refuge of last resort - should apply to immigrants, particularly children.

But a few days before this event is to take place, the British governor of the island is shot. Her Majesty's secret service is called in and Sam McCready asks Desmond Hannah of Scotland Yard to take charge of the case. When Hannah arrives on Sunshine, he notices the subdued atmosphere of fear reigning there. An aggressive presidential election campaign is being conducted, but neither of the two candidates appears to be very trustworthy. The attractive widow Lady Beatrix Coltrane tells Hannah that most of the island's inhabitants are not looking forward to independence because they fear that either of the two candidates for the presidency will abuse the island for his own benefit. One of them, Tomson, is probably involved in illegal drug-peddling in connection with the Colombian Medellin cartel; the other one, Livingstone, is said to be collaborating with the Cuban government. Lady Beatrix' representations are confirmed by Reverend Drake, the island's priest, whom Hannah also discovers to be a strict opponent of independence. Ernie Favaro, a policeman from Miami, arrives on Sunshine. He is investigating the murder of one of his colleagues by members of the Medellin cartel. A hot trail has brought him to the island. The two cases could be connected, and Hannah and Favaro agree to collaborate. But as they have no official permission to carry on their investigations, they are in constant danger of being arrested by the local chief constable, himself suspected of corrupt behaviour. Shortly after the two policemen called on Tomson, one of the candidates for the presidency, somebody tries to kill them. But they are able to intercept and arrest the gunner. To their surprise, he is none other than Reverend Drake. He claims to have missed the target on purpose, intending to draw the attention of the international press to the precarious political situation on the island. After the arrest of Reverend Drake, the chief constable at last has a pretext for apprehending Hannah and Favaro for illegal possession of firearms. But suddenly, to everybody's surprise, Sam McCready arrives on the scene and identifies himself as the interim governor of the island. He takes charge of the case himself. Lady Beatrix makes certain insinuations which lead Hannah to conjecture that she is the perpetrator of the governor's death. Her motive, like Drake's, appears to have been to draw inter-national attention to Sunshine. But Hannah has no proof for his theory. Meanwhile, Ernie Favaro believes to have found a hot scent in the case of his murdered colleague. When he had called on candidate Tomson, he had noticed a valuable edition of Milton's "Paradise Lost". This is the book his murdered collegue had mentioned in connection with the Medellin cartel. Favaro is able to convince governor Sam McCready that Tomson's house must be searched. But the governor prefers the elegant British solution and pays an official first visit to Tomson. This gives Favaro the opportunity to pocket the book. In it, he finds a microfilm with incriminatory data such as the names, bank accounts, business partners, funds etc. of the Medellin cartel. Tomson is shot when he tries to leave Sunshine. The presidential election is postponed until further notice. Sam McCready, who has already become used to the comforts of a diplomat's life, drinks to Lady Beatrix health on her veranda. He is quite willing to let sleeping dogs lie where the death of his predecessor is concerned, and to ask the widow no further questions...

With limited resources and under the constant scrutiny of the despot's watchmen, Saavedra and his team conceive of a bold plan to win the election and free their country from oppression. After fifteen years in power the result of a military coup in 1973, Chilean dictator General 'Augusto Pinochet' (qv), whose reign was marked by quashing any opposition through intimidation, violence, and murder, is pressured by his international allies to hold a referendum on his leadership. A "yes" win would mean eight more years of a Pinochet rule, while a "no" win would mean free elections. Pinochet, through intimidation, vote rigging, and what he believes is true support since the Chilean economy is doing well, believes there is no way he can lose. The referendum campaign will last 27 days leading up to the October 5, 1988 vote, with each side getting fifteen minutes of uninterrupted television air time each day for their campaign. The "no" coalition decides to hire René Saavedra, a young, brash advertising executive to spearhead their campaign, which causes problems if only because his boss, Lucho Guzmán, is an advisor to Pinochet. But against the general direction that most on the "no" side want to take, including René's ex-wife Verónica Carvajal (who nonetheless refuses to participate since she believes the referendum is pure propaganda by the ruling regime), which is to expose Pinochet's oppressive ways, René, treating this project like any of his other work, instead decides on a softer approach, using the slogan "Chile: happiness is coming", bright colors most specifically through a rainbow, and a generally upbeat message of real happy Chileans doing real happy things in a post-Pinochet Chile as the center of the campaign, with no mention of oppression or murder. Beyond the tone of the "no" campaign, Pinochet and his forces have to decide how to counter what they eventually learn is a "no" campaign that is resonating with voters. If Pinochet decides to use old tactics of intimidation and violence, those working on or associated with the "no" campaign, including René, Verónica and their adolescent son Simón, may question if their lives are worth working on the "no" side.
1523 ::: "Arnaques" (1998) ::: documentary ::: Arnaques est un docu-divertissement qui retrace les arnaques d'ici et d'ailleurs et explore en profondeur différents aspects du monde des arnaqueurs.

1538 ::: 1946, automne allemand (2009) ::: documentary ::: Inspired by his eponymous essay, this documentary recounts his impressions during his journey and reveals his critical and emphatic point of view towards the vanquished German people. Unlike most journalists of the time, obsessed by the demonstration of the guilt of the Germans, Stig Dagerman puts his eyes on the suffering, the misery, the mutism, the inability of the Germans to face the monstrosity of the Nazism, and denounces the cynicism of the victors in the aftermath of the bombings.

1540 ::: More Art Upstairs (2017) ::: documentary ::: For three weeks in September, beer-fueled debates in the bars of one Michigan town aren't about sports and politics but art. Hundreds of thousands of people come to Grand Rapids to engage with blue-chip artists in ways that rarely happen at Art Basel or other established art events, unless you're a major collector or critic. More Art Upstairs follows four accomplished artists as they compete at ArtPrize, a populist experiment that inverts the equation of who gets to decide what art has value by letting the general public vote, via their phones, on which works will win much of the $500,000 in prize money - the largest award in the art world. What attracts these artists is the chance to win this public vote, but also to gain exposure to some of the country's top art critics, who dash into town to award the other half of the prize money. Local bistros, bars and abandoned buildings showcase the work and our artists are compelled to be outgoing. They stand next to their art, talking to people who are often experiencing contemporary art for the first time. They embrace the ethos of the competition but grow weary of having to repeatedly explain their approach and worry about going home empty-handed. Will this unmediated experience - no convoluted "art speak" explanations and no velvet ropes cordoning off the art - change how everyday folks think about art? Will it reshape how our characters make and exhibit their work? Will this populist experiment have any impact on larger conversations about high and low culture? More Art Upstairs melds humor, extraordinary behind the scenes access and a nail-biting competition to explore each of these questions. A quirky contest that's a mash up of Art Basel and American Idol attracts four blue chip artists to leave NYC's insular art world for a month in the Midwest, where the public votes by phone to decide who wins much of $500,000 in prize money.

1543 ::: Homeless in a College Town (????) ::: documentary ::: This documentary is focused on showing the two sides of Amherst, MA. The first side being a quaint college town, where roughly 20% of its residents are educated with a BA or higher, and the other side being the 20% of its residents who have fallen so low beneath the poverty level that they are now homeless. Both of these statistics, of education and homelessness are well ABOVE the state and national levels. "Homeless in a College Town" will display a variety of interviews exemplifying a series of studies conducted by psychologists at the University of California, Berkeley and the University of Toronto in Canada earlier in 2012 stating that the educated and cultured class, are more likely to care for "one's own welfare over the welfare of others". This body of work should open eyes to the fact that a community shouldn't judge itself by money or education but rather how well they take care of others who can't take care of themselves. Is Amherst one of these towns? Or are they pioneers, setting new standards in ways to help the homeless?

Before then it was summers and holidays. Before that, their mothers just stuck them in a playpen and hoped they would like each other. It worked. With a college education under their belts, the pact was in motion- to move to New York and be each other's live-in support system. Being that they both always dreamed of an acting career, this seemed like the absolute perfect life plan.

Corinne is a box of fireworks sitting dangerously close to a rapidly approaching fire. Dumbfounded as they are, they keep running into each other at auditions.

A documentary reminiscence of anxiety and fear reminding us that fates of many of the junta's victims still remain unknown.

For this reason, the guide through this film about memory representation is a girl with blindfold eyes.
1551 ::: Hello! Shu Xian Sheng (2011) ::: drama ::: The vast and snowy landscapes of northern China form the striking backdrop to the story of Shu, whose name translates to 'tree' in Mandarin, a clownish mechanic who resides in a small mining village in the province of Jilin.

But when his flower is plucked eventually by the force of his fate, he discovers friendship, love, passion and finally hatred that drowns him, tearing his petals, under the water. (2)Phulkumar albeit aims for the subtlest nuances of emotion, is a comedy in the Chekhov's sense of the world - a visceral, inertly brooding study, of a children's coming-of-age in a half formed petit bourgeois limbo.

It tells the little known story of Peter Bergson, who tirelessly stood up against American Jewish leaders in the late 30's and early 40's in an effort to save the Jews of Europe. Against the Tide is a compelling film that documents what happened in the United States during the Holocaust, highlighting how a young activist, Peter Bergson, challenged Washington and the establishment Jewish organizations to demand that the rescue of Europe's Jews become a top priority for American Jews. Through a never before seen 1977 interview, Bergson gives a first-hand account of what occurred. The more successful he became in attracting support from important non-Jewish members of Congress and Hollywood personalities such as Ben Hecht, Edward G. Robinson and Paul Muni, the more threatened and resentful Jewish establishment leaders became. Only the ultra Orthodox Vaad Hatzala, led by Rabbis Aaron Kotler and Eliezer Silver worked with him. Against the Tide addresses the attitudes of President Roosevelt and his senior advisors, who used the pretext of winning the war against the Nazis to block any Jewish immigration to the U.S. and juxtaposes the events in America with heart-wrenching heroic stories of the doomed Jews of Europe and the leaders of Polish Jewry who had faith that their powerful brothers and sisters in the United States would somehow be able to save them.

There are few spaces that support the production of new filmmakers. Caballos tries to reflect from the provocation. Its greatest strength lies in the exploration of form and expression. The function of art will always be destabilizing, but with an artistic arsenal. I think this film could be a revealing document of our time. Only then will we know why a horse is a beautiful spectacle. Fabián Suárez

2019 ::: Not Me, Murphy (2013/I) ::: drama ::: According to the project's Kickstarter, Not Me, Murphy tells the "simple" story of a man with dissociative identity disorder. It's part spiritual journey and part case study, narrated by Murphy's care-taking girlfriend Lynn. After a visit from her odd-ball mother, Lynn leaves Murphy, prompting him to take to the country with Brad, a mutual friend. Out in nature, surrounded by gun enthusiasts, their awkward-charming journey takes an unexpected turn. It's thrilling to study the very unwell mind, and to imagine its heights and depths without having to experience it first-hand. Dissociative identity disorder, perhaps better known as having a split personality, is frequently adapted to the screen [Shutter Island, Psycho, Fight Club] because it provides one of the rare occasions when mainstream audiences will stomach experimental technique. Cinematographers and colorists can paint mind-bending hallucinations, actors can play dueling personalities within the same body, and directors can build complicated stories without fear of losing their audience. Tamed by Hollywood conventions, we're ready to roll with the weirdness that comes our way. And Jason Yamas delivers. Until the final twist, Jason Yamas doesn't break his contract with his audience: we're treated to a harrowing but somewhat straight-forward tale of madness, while Yamas, his cast and his crew are free to play with the film's formal aspects. Shot on popular amatuer medium Super VHS, Not Me, Murphy's sharply defined outlined objects and spaces are filled in with milky shadows and grainy color. The light is pinkish when warm, colorless when cool. The cuts are jumpy and disorienting. We are watching some other family's home movies, edited together with an avant-garde sensibility. Sound, meanwhile, alternatively highlights plot points or overwhelms us with information. We overhear improvised conversation often vulgar, repetitive, or incomprehensible. It's a schizophrenic approach often seen from Harmony Korine and his ilk. Because these techniques give so much over to chance, the characters feel as immediate and as inscrutable as the people we encounter in real life. It makes their violent outbursts of compassion and sex all the more surprising, and pleasurable.

2066 ::: Shifting Gaze (2012) ::: short ::: Shifting Gaze is born out of the impulse to get close to the human behind the persona. The piece challenges self-expression and explores new forms of desire, breathing life into the medium and navigating on a new notion of choice, linked to desire and memory, choice being the present, memory representing the past and desire, the drive for a future. What we want (desire) is connected to or conflicting with what is expected from us (identity, memory), and choice is the act upon which we build ourselves. Underneath these mirrored imageries lie many stories about limits, freedom and self-perception: stories of the mind. A shifting gaze may allow us to interpret our interactions with others, from grasping cues to understanding other people's behavior toward us. Shifting Gaze is ultimately a piece about identity, making choices, a memory in act.

2098 ::: Auf direktem Umweg (2014) ::: documentary ::: With a good amount of patience one can reach almost any destination.

2105 ::: The Ocean Ranger Disaster (2002) ::: documentary ::: This new 60-minute documentary, filmed in Newfoundland in the fall of 2001, chronicles the worst offshore drilling accident in North American history. The documentary is tentatively scheduled to premiere in early 2002, ahead of the 20th anniversary of the disaster. The Ocean Ranger sank on Feb. 15, 1982. Part of the Network's expanded slate of documentaries and one of the first recipients of CTV's new BCE-CTV Benefits Package, The Ocean Ranger Disaster is the heart-wrenching story of a disaster that devastated Newfoundland, and shocked the world. In the early morning hours of February 15, 1982, the Ocean Ranger, a giant oil-drilling rig faltered and sank. All 84 crew members were lost. Now 20 years later, using state-of-the-art advances in animation, CineNova has re-created the events of that night. By blending filmed re-enactments, cutting-edge computer graphic technology, poignant interviews and contemporary archival material, The Ocean Ranger Disaster tells the complete story of the startling chain of events that resulted in tragedy. It not only recalls what happened that day but also takes us out "on deck" to experience the disaster first-hand. What really happened that fateful night? How could a seemingly indestructible rig sink? "By exploring the causes of this tragedy, this film is an acknowledgment of the heroic deeds of those who tried their best to save the men of Ocean Ranger, and a tribute to those lives lost and those left behind," said Bob Culbert, CTV's Vice President of Documentaries. "Hopefully, this commemoration will keep the memory of the brave men of Ocean Ranger alive - both among those people who shared in their mourning 20 years ago and among those who have come since and will continue to go to sea in search of oil," said David Lint, chairman and CEO of CineNova Productions, Inc. "We're grateful for the warm reception from the families and people of Newfoundland. Their assistance was indispensable to the telling of the story." Like the Titanic, the Ocean Ranger was the biggest of its kind - 25,000 tons with a deck bigger than two football fields - touted as an unsinkable oil rig and designed to drill in seas too treacherous for others. And like the Titanic, Ocean Ranger challenged the sea in one of the most dangerous areas on earth - the North Atlantic.

As his fame increased, he believed there was no way that trajectory could change course, and even if there was a hint at that happening, that he would do whatever required to get out of that hole. With this belief, he overextended his finances to live the life of luxury. As such, he ended up using people - many who in turn used him - for short term gain. He was also vindictive and ruined people solely because they at one time didn't help or screwed him. The one person he seemed to exclude from this behavior was aspiring costume designer Kay Bergdahl, who he professed to love, but who didn't give him the time of day unlike most of his adoring fans. Frankie also manipulated situations to his benefit, no matter who was hurt along the way, including his so-called friends. Hymie also explains the unlikeliness of the nomination and why it is so important in Frankie's mind for him to win.

2574 ::: Have You Heard About the Panthers? (2002) ::: documentary ::: In the 1970s, a new protest movement burst into Israeli politics. Calling themselves the Black Panthers, this group of rebellious young Mizrahi men was intensely critical of racism and class bias within the Israeli establishment. They embraced Robin Hood-like campaigns such as "Operation Milk," which stole food from rich areas in Jerusalem and distributed it to impoverished immigrants. Their bold moves captured the attention of the young and disenfranchised while earning the animosity of others (Golda Meir called them barbarians). Thirty years ago, as a novice filmmaker, Nissim Mossek set out to document the Panthers' burgeoning movement, following their demonstrations and ferocious confrontations with police. He and the Panthers had no compunctions about waking up families in the middle of the night to ask them to "present their poverty" to the camera, hoping to inform the public about the struggle for equality within Israeli society and incite others to action. Mossek's 1970s protest film vanished suspiciously just after completion; for years it was believed to be lost. The recent discovery of a copy in the Jerusalem Cinematheque prompted the filmmaker to investigate the demise of the Panthers. He tracked down surviving members to examine their sometimes surprising trajectories and their deeply conflicted relationships to their shared radical past. Intercutting footage from his early film with his modern-day research, the diverse, volatile and charismatic subjects (including Panthers Charlie Bitton and Sa'adia Marciano) cast light onto a lesser-known chapter in the struggle for equality and justice of Mizrahi Jews, and illuminate issues of disunity that continue to reveal themselves in today's Israel.

As these individual stories intersect and collide, heartache ignites into remarkable hope. Fall to Grace reminds us of the invisible threads connecting us to one another, creating a net to catch us when we fall.

2582 ::: "People in Order" (2006) ::: documentary ::: A series of 4 short films that arrange 471 people from around Britain according to 4 scales. 1. Age. A person of every age between 1 and 100. 2. Birth. 34 women from 4 to 41 weeks pregnant. 3. Love. 48 couples arranged by length of their relationship (in descending order). 4. Home. 73 households in descending order of yearly income (Ł400,000 - Ł3,240) The concept behind our films was simple: we asked ourselves if you can reveal something about life by simply arranging people according to scales. Three minutes is a very short time to communicate something - too short to tell a story, or to get to know a character - so we wanted to make this series by setting ourselves some very straightforward rules, and then following them through over a long trip. The rules had to be simple so it would take the audience virtually no time to understand them. We established what scales we'd look at, and then chose how each film would be framed. Then it was a case of getting in a camper van and driving round Britain, filming as many people as we could over 4 weeks in February, coping with microphones crackling and cameras refusing to work. The experience was exhausting but also life affirming. In our whole trip we were struck by how happy people were to help. Only a handful of our shoots were arranged in advance. We relied instead on the kindness of strangers - and we found that everywhere, from deprived urban estates to rural aristocrats. The resulting films are like a list of government statistics where the citizens they are referring to have broken out from behind the figures on the page. The people on the screen stop us from seeing them as numbers. Even in single second bursts there are worlds of personality stretching out in front of us. The films are really about our awe at how big life is, infinite in its variety, even when it seems just normal to each of us living it. We are planning to make a feature length version of the age film - without a drum, set over a day - please contact us if you'd be interested in helping with the funding of this project.

The "code" is the Hollywood Production Code of 1930 (also known as the Hays Code, so named for 'Will H. Hays' (qv), the first head of the Motion Picture Producers and Distributors of America), which was developed in order for movie making in Hollywood to run smoothly in the face of increased outside censors. The code was largely ignored until 1934, when its enforcement was overseen by 'Joseph I. Breen' (qv) who took over from Hays and who had a different agenda of moral purity. During those four years, pre-code Hollywood movies are characterized by their rawness and pushing the envelope of sexuality and moral ambiguity (with the depraved side often winning), which were not allowed under the code. What happened to the distribution of pre-code movies during the years that the code was enforced, the reasons for the slow breakdown of the code in the early to mid 1950s, and the reasons for renewed interest in pre-code movies later in the century are also discussed.

On September 12, 1998, a group of top makeup artists gathered in Studio City, CA, to pay tribute to Jack Dawn and his team from the seminal 1939 classic, The Wizard of Oz. In addition to appearances by makeup stalwart Rick Baker and feature film director Ron Underwood, the celebration was enhanced with an impromptu performance by "lollipop guild" Munchkin Jerry Maren, who was only 18 when he acted in the original Oz. Howard Smit, who was a Munchkin and Winkie Guard makeup artist on the film, spoke eloquently about Charlie Schram, a key makeup artist on Dawn's team, responsible for many makeups on the film, including the Cowardly Lion. Undoubtedly, the biggest treat of the tribute was the recreation of seven characters from the film, realized in stunning detail by a ?dream team? of artists led by makeup department head Bill Corso. In fact, Corso's friend and voice-over actor Jess Harnell initiated the tribute with his enthusiasm for a local stage performance as the Cowardly Lion earlier in the summer of 1998. Corso had created his costume and makeup for the stage performance, further enhanced for the tribute. Additionally, Corso oversaw the new fabrication of makeups for the Scarecrow, played by Ken DeShan, the Tin Man, Bob Stilwell, and Dorothy, Jeanne Castagnaro, with their makeup applied by Kenny Myers, Kevin Haney, and Deborah Patino, respectively. Matthew Mungle donated prosthetics for the Wicked Witch, Denise Moses, applied by Ve Neill, and for the Flying Monkey, Joe Griffo, applied by Richard Snell. Todd Tucker created a Winkie Guard on actor Rob Ashe, whose elaborate costume was built from scratch by Jennifer McManus. Myers' wife, Karen, provided the detailed wigs and hairpieces for all. Though the tribute was only performed once, Warner Bros. Pictures hired the five primary characters to appear at historic Mann?s Chinese Theater on Hollywood Boulevard for an appearance commemorating the 60th anniversary re-release of the film for a new generation of audiences. 3,000 people lined the street for a glimpse of the recreations, again created by Corso and five of his team, all of whom next worked on the feature film, "Dr. Seuss's How the Grinch Stole Christmas."

2859 ::: Zielen van Napels (2005) ::: documentary ::: The incomparable splendor of Naples, situated in the shadow of a volcano and by the blue sea of an enormous bay, inspired Johann Wolfgang von Goethe to the famous statement: "See Naples and die". But Naples also has a more complex side. Behind the splendor and pomp that dates from the time when Naples still had great political and social influence, one can also find poverty and adversity. The film director Vincent Monnikendam ends in the backstreets and steep alleyways where sunlight barely penetrates, where dark drama and frivolity keep the age-old city in their grip. The central feature of the film is the painting The Seven Acts of Mercy by Caravaggio, the master of the clair-obscur. This altar piece was painted in 1607, commissioned by the noble founders of the Pio Monte della Misericordia, a charitable institution that is still active. Myths about this painting, the history of the Pio Monte, the joy and sorrow of Neapolitans, alternate and combine to form a colourful portrait. With a leading role for the city of Naples itself. Among the important characters in Souls of Naples are Pietro Gargano, editor-in-chief of the newspaper Il Mattino and a connoisseur of urban history, and Gian Paolo Leonetti, former chairman of the Pio Monte della Misericordia and a descendant of a noble family. The baroque interior of the villa where we meet contrasts with the sober entourage of the inner city. This is where the transsexual Gianni earns a meagre income by selling lottery tickets and Pina tells us about her difficult existence while she sews trendy handbags in a small factory located in an old cellar. The Russian painter Natalia Tsarkova tries to communicate in her own work the essence of clair-obscur in the paintings by Caravaggio whom she so admires. According to her, the special lighting effects with powerful contrasts so characteristic of his work are the symbol of survival, for good and evil, for life and death. In a style inspired by these characteristic light-dark contrasts Souls of Naples provides an inspiring portrait of a city that has survived for two and half thousand years.

Challenging stereotypes and common beliefs, they tell shocking stories of love and hate, control and abuse, despair and hope. Without providing simple answers, the film invites the viewer to ponder human condition through the lives of its characters. Stefan is an 18 year old hustler from Prague who lives with his mother and travels around Europe meeting 5-6 clients a day. Phil is a middle aged man from Los Angeles who went through a painful divorce and began a relationship with a young male escort. Larry is a successful businessman from Los Angeles who has been both an escort and a client. The characters and locations differ, but the stories have many common motives. What drives these men to prostitution? Is it despair or hunger for money, solitude or low self-esteem, traumatic past or cold calculation? What do these characters think about themselves and their lives? How do they justify their actions, and how do they see their future? The first part of the film examines the lives of escorts as seen through their own eyes. The viewer learns about some shocking "secrets of the trade," the violence, fear and abuse that these young men endure while doing their "job." In the second part the viewer looks at the flip side of the coin. This time the story is told by those who pay these young men for their services. For some, it's the only way to get the affection and companionship they are deprived of in their lives, to escape from solitude and insecurity. Some have had devastating romantic experiences in the past and have never healed; some are just looking for instant gratification and "fun." We hear the particularly emotional stories of Richard (a "client") and Stefan (a "hustler") who were nearly driven to suicide by those who mattered most, and who did devastating and lasting damage. We hear about those who tried to help Matthew and Scott get out of hustling, with limited success. The characters discuss love and relationships and talk about their plans for the future. For some it involves having a family and children, some seem content with the status quo. The film ends on a compassionate note, with some final words from the characters asking for viewer's empathy, rather than a rush to judgment.

As drought has intensified over time, the elephants' wanderings between these vital watering holes have stretched into a remarkable yearly migration of seven hundred miles.

Some of his recent books include, The Fragile Absolute - or, why is the Christian legacy worth fighting for? (2000), On Belief (2001), and Welcome to the Desert of the Real: Five Essays on September 11th and Releated Dates (2002).

Once again the police will rely on the keen sense of a tracker for success. Where others see only a forest, Musgrave spots clues and signs as he reads the environment like a map.

3186 ::: More Than a Game (1992) ::: sport ::: Neither rain, nor snow, nor gloom of night...can keep these hoops junkies off the asphalt courts. More than a Game is a rollicking and oft-times heartbreaking account of Chicago playground basketball. Featuring NBA stars, local legends and everyday players, MTAG makes for a fascinating companion to Hoop Dreams, which was released that same year. Over the course of three years, filmmakers Joe Angio and Joel Cohen traversed Chicago's playgrounds to find out why so many people - primarily black inner-city dwellers - devoted their lives to basketball. At the time of the film's release, more NBA players came from Chicago than anywhere else; here, we hear from three of the best. Phoenix Suns all-star forward Eddie Johnson recalls how the playground helped him to steer clear of the notorious street gangs that seduced his older brother, a far superior basketball player. Former Utah Jazz all-star guard Rickey Green returns with two childhood friends to the South Side court where they competed against Arthur "the Magician" Sybills, who they all agree is the greatest player they ever saw. Future Atlanta Hawks all-star Glenn "Doc" Rivers - who would go on to coach the Boston Celtics to an NBA title - recounts a particularly transcendent playground game that he still considers the best he's ever played in. Of course, only a select few graduate from the playgrounds to the NBA. More than a Game also reveals the stories of those who didn't make it. To this day, Bernard Harden believes "no one man can stop me," but his NBA dream ended in the minor leagues of Argentina. His bravado barely masks a lingering bitterness. As a high school sophomore in Chicago's highly competitive Public School League, Terry Rucker averaged 40 points a game. He never finished high school. Lamaar "Money" Mondane's NBA dream never came true either, but he at least achieved a modicum of fame when Reebok selected him to appear in a popular advertising campaign on "playground legends." All three continue to compete on the tiny West Side play lot of their youth. And then there are the games themselves, hard-fought and competitive. One player crashes recklessly, headfirst, into a steel support to save a loose ball. A skinny teen soars to slam home a spectacular dunk, a play worthy of any SportsCenter highlight reel. An argument threatens to erupt into chaos when two players refuse to give ground on a foul call. (The instant replay proves inconclusive.) Witnessing this passion and intensity we begin to understand why the game is so important to countless players, young and old. Why, in fact, it is More than a Game.

TAL is the story of his loves, his brilliant chess conquests and painful defeats and his protracted Ťwarť with the KGB bent on keeping his genius in line with Soviet dogma.With an inexplicably magnetic attraction for women, Tal's bedroom adventures of ten put him on a collision course with both his family and conservative Soviet authorities. Tal's 1st wife, Sally Landau, a jazz singer and an actress whom he married the day after they met, raced with her husband across this complicated landscape until they both burned up in each other's orbits. After a wild and drunken period of debauchery, drugs, alcohol and another impulsive marriage to a young Georgian beauty that lasted for a day, Tal finally met Gelia, his life companion. Immediately, after they moved in together, Tal's wildness clashed with her desire for stability and normalcy sometimes with painful results.

In the end it is Gagarin who defects while Tal returns to the USSR crowned Blitz Chess Champion of the World. In the background of Tal's story is the rarified world of chess masters and the clash of cultures and political systems of the time.

3222 ::: Skin (2017/II) ::: short ::: Amongst the bestrewed contents of a tight-cornered apartment, a cold draft exhales from a defunct window sill. The leak of frigid air amplifies the restlessness of an unnamed woman. She tightens and contorts beneath her thin bed sheet, fighting to escape back to her slumber, but it is hopeless. The exterior world soon comes knocking as a battered cell phone alarms on the bedside table. Her bones tremble and stomach knots. She hesitantly answers, delivering an unrecognizable but otherwise nervous conversation into her bed pillow. Hanging up the phone she knocks over a glass of water on her nightstand. Hanging off her mattress, listless and defeated, we observe her distorted through the empty glass. The woman, involuntarily thrust into the undesired day, removes her bed sheet, exposing her full self to the escaping current. Her hands outreach, examining and stretching her perceived-imperfect body. In attempt to escape her self-torture, she flicks on the television across the room. It illuminates into the overdramatized expressions of a silent film star. The woman inflates and deflates her stomach, hiding and exposing the picture as well as her exaggerated impersonations of the character on screen. The woman soon finds herself in the bathroom, face to face with her nefarious reflection. Over her head, the bathroom heat lamp illuminates the space red. At her feet, the space between the floor and the bathroom door lets in the gelid draft. The tub runs, emitting a black fluid, like development liquid, into the porcelain bath. Soon, the liquid is overflowing onto the woman's feet. The woman sinks into the now still tub, and the picture sinks into an eclectic montage of distorted images; flesh pressing against glass, lights swinging to create twisted expressions, and skin stretching impossibly across the black. We return to the woman to find her arm hanging out of the tub. From there we continue through the woman's morning routine as she angelically strolls through her now Edenic apartment, captured by a series of distorted shots. We finally catch up with her as she hesitates at her apartment door. Her cell phone illuminates the interior of her pocket repeatedly. We slowly focus, from a completely blurred image to one of complete clarity, seeing the woman fully for the first time. She wears a mask of makeup, but is empty and drained underneath. Eventually, she has no choice but to exit. As the door slams behind her, solidifying her departure, we float backwards through the apartment, now feeling colder than ever, and landing on a lifeless, deflated arm, extended from the bathroom, as if the flesh beneath it had been removed.
3223 ::: A Crisis Within (2010) ::: documentary ::: Thailand is on the cusp of change. Since the military coup in 2006 that ousted Prime Minister Thaksin Shinwatra, the country has gone through a political see-saw, and become increasingly divided into 2 distinct factions: the "red shirts"; poor, rural Thais who benefitted from Thaksin's populist policies, and the "yellow shirts"; royalists, businessmen and the urban middle class who are appalled by Thaksin's blatant corruption and abuse of power. Now, the political schism that saw politicians from both "red" and "yellow" factions taking office, has culminated in a mass protest by the red shirts, paralyzing the heart of Bangkok for months and wrecking havoc on the country's economy. What began as a peaceful, boisterous protest has escalated and become increasingly violent: shots have been fired, barricades erected and bombs thrown into public areas, killing at least 30 people and wounding hundreds along the way. Accusations of murder are being thrown by both sides. The protests have also become less about Thaksin and more about the frustrations of Thailand's rural poor who feel their voices are never heard by the urban elites who've ruled the country for over 70 years. How will this crisis be resolved? Will the people in "The Land of Smiles" be able to find a compromise for the different factions? Is Thailand heading for a permanent change? Will the balance of power be overturned at last? We attempt to find the answers through the voices of Thais from different walks of life. We follow Pik, a "redshirt" from the North East as she goes about her life in the "red camp". We trace the journey with Yok, a "colored shirt" Bangkok office worker staunchly against how the red shirts are disrupting the lives of people in the city. We chat with Jojo, a student activist who believes Thailand needs to compromise or risk descending further into anarchy and chaos. We listen to Kraisak, a democrat politician dismayed by the violent clashes that's tearing the country apart. We follow these characters through their daily routine as the political crisis unfolds. How have the characters' lives been affected by this conflict? What are their dreams for the country? What do they believe to be the key to a peaceful resolution? Through this journey, we learn about Thailand's tumultuous history, complex political landscape and the extent of the divide between the rich and the poor. We ask whether beneath this chaos and disconnect, brand 'Thailand', a nation of people who love peace, each other, their country and their culture, still holds true.

3272 ::: The Gay Marriage Thing (2005) ::: documentary ::: Lorre and Gayle were heartbroken when they learned their two great-aunts - sisters who'd lived together their entire 80+ years - were on the verge of losing their 1850's home because it was too big a burden to care for anymore. "Having to leave your home just because you're older?" Lorre asks. "After living there 60 years?" Gayle adds. "Unfair," they agree. So they did something about it. Lorre and Gayle broke their apartment rental lease and moved in with a very grateful Gertrude and Germaine, to be financial, emotional and physical caregivers for their elderly aunts. "We were the Golden Girls for a while there, and we still call ourselves that, even though we lost Auntie Gert last year," Lorre adds. "But Auntie Germaine is still feisty and we do for her because that's what we've both been taught. You take care of family." With that, the first few moments of THE GAY MARRIAGE THING paint a picture of what it means to be a family. Gayle and Lorre, thirtysomething college sweethearts who marked their 15th anniversary a year after the Massachusetts Supreme Court ruled a ban on same-sex marriage unconstitutional, form the heart of this documentary scrapbook. From the protests outside the Massachusetts State House, to the churches of the Reverends Rich Wiesenbach and Carlton Smith, to the historic chambers echoing State Representative Kathi-Anne Reinstein's perspective, and to how all of these voices swirl in the air around Gayle and Lorre as they approach May 17, 2004, the first date same-sex couples could file for marriage licenses in Massachusetts. While eavesdropping on the emotional and spiritual toll this issue has taken upon all parties, the story carries forth to the everyday angst and anticipation of Lorre and Gayle's own wedding. THE GAY MARRIAGE THING is not some historical commentary on gay rights in the United States. It is instead a small story with big implications. By focusing on one suburban couple and the multitude of events that directly affect that couple's otherwise average life, THE GAY MARRIAGE THING strives to show a different side of this issue than documentaries or television newscasts have thus far. This tale is cinematic in its storytelling, rather than journalistic in its reporting. There are plenty of other worthy documentaries where "experts" abound. But this film is about the biggest experts of all, real people. With protesters and their colorful signs serving as a Greek chorus, and an array of opinions from church, state, and everyone in between, this is the film that family members can finally watch together. THE GAY MARRIAGE THING is the documentary that opens dialogue, fully expecting the audience to continue it.

The island is Bali, and the Balinese share their daily lives with legendary Hindu gods and heroes who have walked and danced on the island for a thousand years. Over the last thirty years another group of legendary figures has captured their imagination, dancing on water. 25 years ago Bill Leimbach made a documentary called Balinese Surfer, about the first foreign surfers to arrive in Bali. They left more than their boards behind. They left a legacy, which has become an industry and to some, even a fortune. That early film portrayed how the first Balinese copied these Australian and American surfers and broke through the age-old taboos that said the sea was the home of demons and evil spirits. The sequel Waves of Change, revisits those original Balinese boys to see what has happened in their lives, to their island and to the sport of surfing itself. All the original surfers have had fascinating careers and personal developments. One has become a Hindu priest, two have become surf wear millionaires, while another works for Qantas Bali Tours. Waves of Change follows the old boys as they use the glamour of the young generation of national surfing stars to bring media attention to some of the environmental issues they face today - plastic, pollution, sewerage run-off into the surf and reef bombing.

Award-winning filmmaker Samir was born in Baghdad and has lived in Switzerland since he was child, while the members of his extended family are scattered all over the world - Abu Dhabi, Auckland, Sydney, Los Angeles, Buffalo, London, Paris, Zurich, and Moscow - with only a handful remaining in Iraq. Recounting his family's stories of departures and uprootings, in Iraqi Odyssey Samir also chronicles how Iraqis' dreams of building a modern and just society after their nation achieved independence in the 1950s were brutally dashed over the course of half a century. Loosely organized in three acts, the film begins with Samir's grandfather and his role in the struggle against British colonialism. The second act traces the successive waves of emigration as his relatives sought safe havens around the globe to escape from the series of coups and counter-coups in the 1960s and 1970s that resulted in the establishment of Saddam Hussein's three-decade dictatorship over the country. Saddam's deposition by the 2003 US invasion, and the iconic image of his statue being toppled in Firdos Square, signals the film's final act, and the last tale of departure. Weaving together the ironic, wistful, and witty testimonies of Samir's relatives with rare documents from private and state archives, Ottoman film footage and 3D technology, Iraqi Odyssey is a riveting epic that creates a genuine people's history of Iraq, at once humble and majestic. Shedding a new light on a grossly misrepresented country, Iraqi Odyssey is the veteran director's most personal, ambitious, and accomplished feature to date.

3640 ::: Hic rosa, partition botanique (2007) ::: documentary ::: Hidden behind the name of the most famous of flowers there lies a homage. To what? To the color red, to flushing women. To women enraged by justice like Rosa Luxembourg; to women engaged in the austere precision of an art of truth like Daničle Huillet. Because - it is quite clear and the dates in the subtitles in the credits confirm it (1916/1936/2006) - the voices of one or the other cross the "botanical symphony" that reveals the images in sequence. It is the latter's concern for precision that is heard in the diction of the letters written in 1916 by the former. While Rosa Luxembourg is known for having been the heroic organizer Spartacist, who was assassinated by the police in 1919, it is another timbre than that of combative militant that resonates here. "Do you remember what we were planning to do when the war is over?" she writes to one of her correspondents. Such is the subject matter of these letters: the certain memory of the future. The hauntingly insistent reminder of the causes for which the struggle must be led. If a revolution is to be undertaken, and with all the necessary devotion, it is, to exclude oneself from a project bound to the rational. To what end then? To rediscover the gracious and inconsequential innocence of the original garden. To become animal or plant again, nature without fatality. Return, all in all and according to a familiar messianism, to Master Eckhart's famous mystical program "the rose does not have a why". In this first long film, Anne-Marie Faux celebrates the passion of unhindered floral existence without yielding anything to the demands that such an ambition requires.

3692 ::: Cast (2012) ::: short ::: In the "demi-monde" of night fishing, anglers on a French beach cast their lines. The camera follows their night-long toiling in obscurity, the contrast provided by the limited light sources resembling a scene from a baroque painting. Thus, a relatively ordinary activity takes on an otherworldly aspect, becoming an allegory for contemporary existence as well as for artistic production itself. For me, the situation evokes Miltonian-style scenarios of humans and rebel angels cast out of paradise and the film plays on Biblical fishing-related allusions (several of the apostles were said to be fisherman, and were described as ''Fishers of men'' and Christ was symbolized by a fish). Therefore, on a symbolic level, in the film the fishermen produce a ''divine'' signifier (i.e. the fish) which is subsequently disposed of, presumably leaving them to cast around for alternative significations.

Usually movie sets are closed to outsiders, so it is rare to get a glimpse of the activity behind the camera. But when the stars came to Rhodes, the entire island became one huge motion picture set, making it impossible to keep people out. The people of Rhodes were curious, as most had probably never seen a film company in action before. When the American Sixth Fleet dropped anchor at Rhodes, U.S. sailors also visited the set and some had their hats signed by Gia Scala. During the Easter holiday, the Greek prime minister came to visit and to participate in the traditional festivities, joined by the film's stars. Probably the most unusual visitors ever to a movie production set were members of the Greek royal family including the King, Queen and princesses, and also the former King and Queen of Romania. Perhaps the orphan boys who live on Rhodes will best remember the visit by the film crew to the island -- many scenes were shot near the orphanage, and the boys were daily visitors to the locations. Finally, the stars gave a farewell party for the friends they had made, to note the time when the "no visitors" sign was taken down for "The Guns of Navarone".

May attends a reunion of women activists. It is the night before the Miners' Gala and they are going to let their hair down at the local rock 'n' roll dance. Also heading for the same venue is Roy Cotton, the recently arrived manager of an open cast coal mine which the 'free enterprise' culture has fostered as a replacement for the traditional mining communities. Although he is from a mining background himself, at 17 he 'got on his bike' and has never looked back. In political and cultural terms, Roy is regarded as the 'enemy'. When he asks May to dance, he is unaware of the effect it will have on both of their lives. Roy does not understand what he is getting himself into. For May, the conflict he engenders proves to be the catalyst to rekindle her lost belief. The Scar has its roots in work done during the 1984 miners' strike. Amber worked with women's support groups in the region, one of which was in Easington, County Durham. In 1994 Amber produced, in conjunction with a community services project, the video, It's the Pits, examining the problems of young people in the East Durham pit villages in the aftermath of the closure of the industry in that area. One of these villages was Easington. Links with the women's group from 10 years earlier were re-established, and a process of examining the experience of that community in the intervening period, as well as the tensions in families, the perceived alienation of the young, and the economic consequences on families of industrial decline. This formed the starting point for the script of The Scar. At all stages the local people were involved. They shared their experiences and discussed the script with Amber. Some were employed during production as set decorators and technical assistants, and groups were brought in for consultation during the editing process. The film was the first in what became Amber's coalfield trilogy.

3798 ::: Word Is Out (1977) ::: documentary ::: More than two dozen men and women of various backgrounds, ages, and races talk to the camera about being gay. Their stories are arranged in loose chronology: early years, fitting in (which for some meant marriage), disclosing their sexuality, establishing adult identities, and reflecting on how things have changed and how things should be. Some speak as couples and some as singles. One lost her children in a custody decision, one was dishonorably discharged from the U.S. Army, two were sent to insane asylums. All see social progress as they reflect. News footage and a few vocal performances provide breaks as topics shift. Twenty-six U.S. homosexuals of various ages and backgrounds are interviewed, they who speak candidly about their sexual orientation in this era just a few years after the initial gay liberation at Stonewall. They speak of when they first knew of their sexual orientation and what that actually meant to them during a time when there were few open outlets or supports for homosexuals in U.S. society. Some speak of the added pressures if the acknowledgment of being homosexual was during one's adolescent period, when there is enough pressure from adolescence in and of itself. They also speak of the period of disclosure - for some, this process being involuntary - with many who were treated as having a mental disorder and the resulting fear or anger associated with the treatment. Into their disclosed period, they needed to figure out where in society they fit, whether it be in relation to their sweet-hearts, to friends or society in general. To each person or group, these roles could be totally different. They speculate on their future as homosexuals based on their experiences and the state of homosexual acceptance in U.S. society.

Director Chris Paine (Who Killed the Electric Car? 2006) has had unprecedented access to the electric car research and development programs at General Motors, Nissan, and Tesla Motors, while also following a part time electric car converter who refuses to wait for the international car makers to create the electric cars the public demands. As more models of electric cars than ever before start to arrive in showrooms and driveways across the world, Chris Paine's film offers an inspiring, entertaining and definitive account of this revolutionary moment in human transportation. Revenge of the Electric Car follows these auto makers as they race each other to create the first, best, and most publicly accepted electric cars for the new car market. Documentarian 'Chris Paine (II)' (qv) chronicled General Motors (GM)'s figurative and literal pulling of the plug on the electric car - the EV1 - in his film, _Who Killed the Electric Car? (2006)_ (qv). Shortly thereafter, a new revolution of sorts of the fully electric vehicle (EV) has begun. This follow up documentary focuses on four people within that revolution. 'Elon Musk' (qv), who built his fortune as the owner of Paypal, is now the CEO of newly formed California-based Tesla Motors, which only manufactures high end EVs. He is largely financing the company on his own money, the company which is seen as the initiator of the revolution. An unlikely person in the revolution is 'Bob Lutz (I)' (qv), the Vice-Chair of GM, the man who was largely responsible for killing the EV1. Now, he wants to be seen as the man who reinvented GM, perhaps the most important company to the US economy. 'Carlos Ghosn' (qv) is the CEO of Nissan/Renault. A pure capitalist, Gosn is betting that the Leaf, Nissan's EV, will be the leader in providing an affordable EV to the mass market. And Greg Abbott aka 'Reverend Gadget' (qv) is a leading EV hobbyist who converts existing gas powered vehicles to EVs, a hobby he wants to turn into a viable business. The road for each of the four individuals and their respective organizations to taking the general public by storm with their products may not be a smooth one, from external factors, such as the global economy, to personal issues being many of the bumps along the road.

4011 ::: Color Bar Experience (2015) ::: short ::: A 2015 16x9 HDTV enhanced version for those who like it big and wide. Ripping apart the standard NTSC analog color bar signal. The NTSC color bar reference signal is distorted by attacking the horizontal and vertical blanking sync timing signals using a time base corrector. The resulting color bar chaos was rephotographed off a monitor since the video itself was too unstable to record directly to tape. This short video art piece was inspired by the 'color tuning guide channel' that American Cablevision included in its channel lineup in the 1980s. The odd thing about the 'color tuning guide', which was the typical NTSC color bar display, was that the average cable subscriber was not likely to know how the reference colors were supposed to look. Were any of them television broadcast engineers? So how would they know if the color display they saw at home on their sets was correct? How useless! So here is my Color Bars, which is my version of 'your color tuning guide cable channel'. Diabolical!

This philosophical outlook, man's vainglory, his over-reaching tendencies leading to catastrophe, has been an underlying theme in my films.

This has, as does the source film, the parents of Shamrock Ellison being killed by an outlaw gang led by The Cat, and the trauma of seeing the killings gives Shamrock a psychological hangup about using his six-shooters on men, although he grows up to be a champion rodeo rider and a crack shot otherwise. He fails to pass the test of the day when tested during a bandit holdup and is branded a coward and he and his pal Lucky leave town. But, on the way to whatever the next town is, he saves Ann from another holdup and wins her and the townspeople's gratitude. They make him the marshal, against his will, to pursue an outlaw gang that is terrorizing the territory. The gang is fronted by Tex but the real leader is a face from his haunted past.

4263 ::: "Channel 2 News" (1960) ::: news ::: 'The Big News' was big news in broadcast world. The L.A. TV show, billed as the first 45-minute newscast in the nation, debuted in 1961.

An apt title for the typical TV newscast of the 1950s might have been: "Inaction News!'' There simply wasn't much of it on the tube back in those days. In Southern California, the nightly fare on KNXT-TV (Channel 2) in 1959 consisted of a network newscast from 7:15 to 7:30, and two local newscasts from 7 to 7:15 and 11 to 11:15. Just 30 minutes of local news nightly, two-thirds of which was devoted to sports and weather. TV anchors would sometimes introduce stories by holding up the morning's newspaper headlines.

It all changes one day when he walks through his front door and three masked men shoot him, leave him for dead, and abduct his loving wife Grace. Like a ticking bomb, hatred builds inside him as endless days turn into weeks without an arrest. Haunted by the memory of Grace's terror, he can't help but feel guilty for his failure to protect her. His nightmare truly begins when her ravaged body is found dumped in an isolated corner of a park. He descends ever deeper into an abyss of darkness. Joe Ackers, a seemingly sympathetic police detective, throws Miller a lifeline by offering him an unusual proposal. Through Ackers, Miller learns the names of the masked men and is given a choice: he can continue his downward spiral into depression and waste away, or he can seek revenge. In a secluded cabin, Ackers teaches Miller how to fight, to think, and stay one step ahead of his enemies. They methodically work through each stage of a fail-proof plan - until all three men are tracked down and viciously killed. With Grace's death avenged, Miller sets out to restore his life - but soon finds that revenge comes at a price. Ackers, like a chess master calmly making his endgame move, lays out his payback plan: Miller must kill Ackers' ex-wife. Backed into a corner, with seemingly no other choice, Miller finds he can't follow through. He decides to turn the tables by double-crossing Ackers. In a final showdown, Ackers discovers that once a man is molded into a killer, that man will no longer be an easy victim.... Endgame is a taut, psychological thriller in the vein of Death Wish and, more recently, The Game. The innate violence of this genre, and its tragic consequences, seeks to clarify a much broader question: what is left of a person's soul when society's rules are ripped away?

"Having heard all these awful things and what homosexuality was and then having a member of your family, a person that you have seen, a child that you have seen since the child was born, a person that was absolutely wholesome, good, kind, gentle and that put together with the word lesbian didn't add up," said a Hispanic mother. This film is especially important since up to 26% of gay teens who come out to their parents or guardians are told they must leave home. Of the approximately 1.6 million homeless American youth, 20-40% identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender. Nearly 40% of LGBT (GLBT) students report being physically harassed. In a 2001 Department of Health study of youth in Massachusetts, about 40 percent of gay and lesbian students attempted suicide, compared to about 10 percent of their heterosexual peers.

4528 ::: "Family Feud" (1977) ::: game-show ::: The Australian version of the popular American game show. Two families compete against each other for cash prizes by guessing the most popular answers to survey questions like "Name something you would find in the back of a car." The Australian version of the U.S. game show. Two families of four people compete against each other over a number of rounds where they try to match answers to questions with those obtained from a survey of 100 people. There could be from 3 to 8 answers for them to match, but the number of answers generally decreases in later rounds. Each round begins with one person from each family facing off against each other. After the question is asked, the first person to hit the buzzer gives the first answer, and its position on the board is revealed, with the number of people who gave that answer becoming the initial number of points. The other person then tries to give an answer in a higher position on the board, with the number of people who gave that answer added to the point score, unless the first person's answer is the top answer. The person revealing the most popular or the higher of the two revealed answers decides if their family wants to pass or play. The family that plays then has to match the other answers, adding to the point score with each match, while avoiding getting strikes for answers that are not on the board. If that family makes a "clean sweep" by matching all of the answers on the board, they receive the total points (A minimum of 3 people have to give an answer for it to appear on the board, so a clean sweep will sometimes result in less than 100 points), otherwise when they get three strikes, the other family confers for three seconds before deciding on an answer - if this answer is on the board, that family wins the points, but it it isn't, the points go to the family that first played that round. The third round is a double points round, where the points for each answer revealed are double the number of people who gave that answer in the survey. Additional "spare questions" may be played, again at double points, unless or until one family has more than 200 points. This family then chooses two people to play the final round, where the first person has a total of 15 seconds to answer five questions, and after they give all of their answers, the number of people who said each answer in the survey is revealed and added as points. The board is then cleared and the second person is brought out and has 20 seconds to answer the same five questions - if they repeat an answer given by the first person, they hear a buzzer and the host tells them to "try again", hence the longer time (either person may pass on a question, in which case they get another chance to answer it at the end only if time permits). If the two people score a total of 200 points or more between them, the family wins the prizes on offer.

Even though homosexuality had not been punished since the 1950s, the conspiracy of silence, the condemnation, the pressure to conform to society and to sexual discretion remained.

4640 ::: Butoh: Body on the Edge of Crisis (1990) ::: documentary ::: Although Butoh is often viewed as Japan's equivalent of modern dance, in actuality it has little to do with the rational principles of modernism. Butoh is a theater of improvisation which places the personal experiences of the dancer on center-stage. The dancer is used as a medium to his or her inner life, but not for the portrayal of day to day existence. A Dionysian dance of nudity, eroticism, and sexuality, Butoh's scale of expression ranges from meditative tenderness to excessive grotesqueness. By reestablishing the ancient Japanese connection of dance, music, and masks, and by recalling the Buddhist death dances of rural Japan, Butoh incorporates much traditional theater. At the same time, it is a movement of resistance against the abandonment of traditional culture to a highly organized consumer-oriented society. An alliance of tradition and rebellion, Butoh is one of the most fascinating underground dance movements. "Butoh: Body on the Edge of Crisis" is a visually striking film portrait shot on location in Japan with the participation of the major Butoh choreographers and their companies.

4642 ::: The Man I Married (1940) ::: drama ::: Anti-Nazi tract laced with 1938 newsreel footage finds American girl (Bennett) married to a German (Lederer) gradually learning he is a Nazi, trying to get their son to America. THIS FILM is an apologetic about the rising fever of nationalism as Germany takes over the neighboring countries like Poland and Austria, and the Brownshirted thugs of Hitler's dictatorship threaten everyday Germans with Treason for ordinary political commentary directed at the Government policies or Nazi Party in general. It is very prescient about the fate of the emerging war and the Prison< Dachau, as well as Dresden and Goebbels, very amazing how the film-maker saw WWII coming. There is a married couple and 9 year old son making a trip to Germany to see the man's elderly father after ten years in NYC. A friend asks them to somehow deliver bribe money that will free his own brother, a philosopher critic of the Nazis imprisoned at the Dachau concentration camp [DCC], because he himself cannot leave NYC. They see the father who owns a factory but is a film director being harassed because his films depicted the brutality and ugliness being heaped on ordinary Germans by the brown-shirted thugs, things such as the people in the Czech/Slovak part of town being physically forced to clean garbage up off the street over and over again as Nazi thugs re-dump the same garbage out of the truck again and again laughingly. One fellow even asks to change out of his suit, and reappears in the WWI UNIFORM from when he fought for Germany as a younger man, still the German thugs made him clean laughingly enjoying the spectacle, as the couple watch. When the couple are reproached by a thug in a military uniform for not laughing along, their escort states the Czechs are too stupid to laugh at and they have to hide their actual revulsion. The soldier allows them to drive on and throughout the film there are similar incidents such as the father's butler spying and passing on any comments made in the household to Party members who try to boycott and interfere with the father's business interests and clientele. The husband and wife wind up changing beliefs the husband becoming a Nazi sympathizer while the wife decides she dislikes anything Nazi and wants to return to America. The husband tries to talk his father into letting him run the factory because the father is elderly and wants to retire and leave Germany because he is not happy with Nazis and what Germany is becoming with Goebbels. There the family strife continues as the polarizing feelings cause the boy to be caught in the middle. There will be no spoiler at this point so you can watch this prophetic film of 1940 call out what may happen in Naziland, and will happen in 1942-1945 well after it was produced. Amazing, actually. Light entertainment of a very serious topic. Enjoy it, I give it 3 dings out of 5 bells.

Interweaving their present day stories with dramatic personal accounts of the 1937 Parsley Massacre (over 30,000 Haitians killed at the hands of Dominican soldiers), the film will beautifully juxtapose how past and present converge as it explores themes of genocide and otherness.

Milko, a driver working for the film crew, dreams of taking part in automobile races; his wife Elena is the cashier of the production. Maria, an assistant to the director, comes between them. The story intertwines ordinary daily lives with the world of filmmaking into a drama ending with Elena's suicide. The film crew witness this drama silently. Yet the shooting of the film and its story suddenly recede in importance before the real-life drama, a drama for which these people prove unprepared and which disturbs their inner equilibrium. To some this is an unpleasant episode that must be forgotten as quickly as possible, but to others, such as the scriptwriter and the director, it provides an occasion to re-evaluate their own lives and the films they have been making. They are shaken by the revelation that they have allowed life to pass them by in hiding from reality behind empty phrases and making pointless films. It turns out the equilibrium that everybody aspires to may all too easily turn into unconcern. At whose expense do we achieve our own equilibrium? The story revolves round a film production. In a town at the Black Sea coast, a film crew is shooting a movie. The screenwriter and the director of the 'film within a film' are shooting some pretentious trash involving a large crew. The relations between the members of the group are very strained and can have damaging consequences. They all witness a genuine human drama, which unfolds between the driver in the production, Milko, and his sensitive wife Elena, who is the cashier of the crew. The 'other woman' is the assistant director Maria - a beautiful and frivolous girl. In the familiar love triangle three people are futilely searching for balance in their personal and social lives. Milko and Maria are hiding behind a false self-confidence while Elena refuses to turn her back on Milko's adultery, which he sees as a weakness, and escape in a light-hearted love affair. Elena, too, is unable to fight against the current and commits suicide. The shooting of the movie goes on, though for the screenwriter and the director this is a reason for serious thought. They ask themselves whether they succeed in reflecting on the real problems of the people in their works. The human drama faces film people with fundamental question about truth and falsehood in art. The film is successful marriage of observations on various social strata and the confession-like tone of the filmmakers.

5055 ::: O Dia em Que o Brasil Esteve Aqui (2005) ::: documentary ::: How can a game of football change a nation's destiny? How can the passion for another country's national team surpass the personal and collective conflicts of everyday life? Now imagine the Five Time World Champion Brazilian team playing with Haiti's national team to promote peace in a country going through a period of atavistic misery. UN troops, led by Brazil, try to maintain peace and order. The informal economy rules the streets. Hunger rages. Only music and faith, seems to keep them alive - and football. In this environment, the presence of the Brazilian National Team served as an excuse for hope and euphoria - and it is important to ask, what other purpose will it serve? What kind of peace can come out of this match? From any perspective, it was a unique encounter, of football with politics, of superstars with simpletons, of countries with similar histories and societies. An inexplicable passion that Haiti feels for Brazil that does not need to be understood, but incorporated. After all - as a common Haitian might say - "After seeing Brazil play, I can die!" How can a soccer match change a nation's destiny? How can the passion for another country's national team surpass the personal and collective conflicts of everyday life? Now imagine the Five Time World Champion Brazilian team playing with Haiti's national team to promote peace in a country going through a period of atavistic misery. UN troops, led by Brazil, try to maintain peace and order. The informal economy rules the streets. Hunger rages. Only music and faith, seems to keep them alive - and soccer. In this environment, the presence of the Brazilian National Team served as an excuse for hope and euphoria - and it is important to ask, what other purpose will it serve? What kind of peace can come out of this match? From any perspective, it was a unique encounter, of football with politics, of superstars with simpletons, of countries with similar histories and societies. An inexplicable passion that Haiti feels for Brazil that does not need to be understood, but incorporated. After all - as a common Haitian might say - "After seeing Brazil play, I can die!" On August 18, 2004, the Brazilian and Haitian National Soccer Selections played the "Game for Peace", in Port au Prince. That day, the five-time world champions, attending to an invitation by the Prime Minister of that nation so devastated by misery, took 90 minutes of temporary peace to the poorest nation of the Americas. It was a historical journey, with repercussions for the future of a country that has gone through 33 coup d'etats in its 200 year history as a free land. The documentary entitled "The day Brazil was here" is an emotional registry of this soccer match. Sixty hours of footage were recorded over a fifteen day period. They show the delirium of an extremely poor people when before their idols. They also show the emotion felt by the kings of soccer, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho Gaúcho, Roberto Carlos and the rest of the team when they see this crowd so anxious for water, food, yet above all, a yellow jersey with the five stars embroidered on the chest. Politics and sports, history and solidarity, walk side by side in a documentary that intends to answer a simple question: can a soccer match truly change the fate of a nation? In the tiny Sylvio Cator stadium, with a capacity for only 13,000 fans, a rare political and sport moment was lived. During the days that preceded the match, and even after the Brazilian soccer stars' short stay in the country, Haiti enjoyed some special moments. A chimera in a nation at war, whose peace is maintained with the aid of UN peace forces, the so-called "blue helmets". The parade of Brazilian athletes on board military tanks along the 15 kilometer route brought the nation to a standstill. It was also an extraordinary diplomatic move by Brazil and its declared ambition, now with the ex-laborer Lula as President, which is to occupy a permanent seat in the UN General Assembly. And ultimately, it is an unprecedented document, at the heart of current affairs, in the difficult everyday life of a wounded nation, which portrays the Haitian people's passion for Brazilian soccer. The scenes show how the fascination for Brazilian soccer, born in 1958 with the team of Pelé, Garrincha and Didi, has left the field and now dominates everyday life in homes with crumbling walls and open sewers.

5128 ::: Magic in Our Hands (2014) ::: documentary ::: By the end of 2013, there were more mobile devices on Earth than people. The UN have warned that many electronic devices bought are destined to create a flood of dangerous e-waste. By 2017, the amount of e-waste generated globally is expected to be over 65 million tonnes per year. These are electronic goods made up of hundreds of different materials containing toxic substances, much of which ends up in the developing world causing significant pollution and health risks. The most significant advance in technology of the past generation has been the very rapid growth of Information and Communication Technologies in both developed and developing countries. This globalization has allowed production and waste management to be outsourced to rapidly developing countries, such as India, yet this also shifts any responsibility of the associated emissions to those countries. Viewed from the perspective of a developing nation, we follow puppetry artist, Padmini Rangarajan, from Hyderabad, South India as she leads a team of young students to engage in a community action project to create ownership on judicious consumption and management of e-waste. The underlying idea is to urge people not to wait for 'someone' to do 'something' about the issue 'someday', but rather shoulder the responsibility ourselves for a sustainable tomorrow. India celebrates long historical traditions of rod, shadow and string puppets and these puppet traditions are repositories of culture and history. The medium of this traditional art gave us the opportunity to gain unique insights into India's rich cultural heritage as well as offer an approach to demonstrating that creative arts projects and community engagement can bring about bold social change. The toxic effects to our health and environment are not yet widely known, yet the hazards Padmini uncovers could prove fatal to many if we don't address these issues now. Through puppetry arts, Padmini and her students can inspire their community into action and take responsibility to build safer and more resourceful environments for women and children and the community at large.

5156 ::: Miss Annette Kellerman (1909) ::: short ::: In her physical culture, diabolo, fancy diving and swimming, in the music halls Miss Annette Kellerman commands one of the highest salaries ever paid a single entertainer and is regarded by her managers as one of the most potent box office attractions ever presented, to which fact they gave legal testimony when rival managers sought for her services last spring. In addition to being one of the most perfectly formed women who ever trod a stage, Miss Kellerman is singularly versatile, for she is a champion swimmer, a diver of exceptional ability, one of the best diabolo players in the world and a physical culture expert of note. In this series of views all of her gifts are exploited to greater advantage than they possibly can he shown in the narrow confines of the stage or in the constricted quarters of her stage tank. Those most familiar with her public appearances declare this subject to be a vast improvement upon her regular performance, for the physical disadvantages of the stage are overcome and the act is seen at its best. She opens with the physical culture exercises by means of which she preserves the perfection of her form. Next she is seen upon the lawn of a country residence playing at diabolo, that fascinating Parisian fad with her Diabolo Club of young women. The third section of the film is devoted to her short dives and fancy swimming in the huge tank which forms a part of the Vitagraph studio equipment. Here she is seen to the utmost advantage in the famous black tights upon which the sun glints lovingly as she emerges from the water for a new dive. The dripping silk of the fleshings appears almost iridescent as the angle of reflection is changed with each sinuous move, and in the water the dashes of light as the body is raised above the surface suggests some silver-scaled mermaid disporting herself in her element. A scenic and spectacular investment adds to the picturesqueness of the pictures which is lacking in her stage performance. The last section of the film is devoted to her famous high dives, few of which may be shown to advantage in the theater. These were taken at the seashore and she dives into the ocean instead of into a tank, permitting far greater freedom of movement. Perfection of photography, artistic coloring in monochrome and extreme care in arrangement make this a truly notable film, which will be even more appreciated than the work of the fair natatorialist as seen in theaters.

On her way out of the ballroom, she is drawn to the bar's TV set broadcasting news of Cuban dictator Fulgencio Batista's sudden departure from the island. Bunnie is both captivated and perplexed by this event. The following morning, after lunch with her good friend and wife of the American ambassador, Bunnie drives in her Cadillac convertible up the coast to her family's winter mansion. She plans on leaving Cuba at sunrise aboard the yacht of friends who are all sailing off to Miami together. But, for now, she just wants to say good-bye to the old place resolved to the fact 'the party is over.' In the rural area where the mansion is located, rebels are busy cleaning up stray Republican soldiers. Raul Cruz, a lieutenant in the Republican Army, is seen running through the underbrush. The rebels chase after him but he manages to escape. Their commander finds Raul's cap left behind in the dirt and ponders Raul's direction. Sometime later, Raul makes his way onto the mansion grounds. When Bunnie comes down from her bath, she finds Raul standing in her living room. Raul awkwardly introduces himself and reminds Bunnie the two of them had met there once many years before at one of her lavish parties. Bunnie has no recollection of this but she decides to offer Raul a safe haven for the night. As the evening progresses, Bunnie and Raul get to know one another better. Over dinner, they discuss the current political situation and America's imperialist involvement in Cuba. Bunnie begins to suspect Raul is really a Castro sympathizer. She is further surprised that Raul claims to have once known her former lover Eddie Martinez, a local nightclub manager who Bunnie has never gotten over. Later, after dinner, Raul and Bunnie dance a mambo together. When the music ends, Bunnie is saddened by television reports of Castro's easy take-over. Raul is sympathetic. Affections lead to passion and in no time the two end up making frenzied love, something both have needed for a long time. Shortly afterwords, Bunnie receives a telephone call learning that her childhood nanny is dying back in Havana. Bunnie plans on returning to the city immediately to be at the old woman's side but Raul cautions against it. Reluctantly, though, he agrees to go with her. In Havana, at the nanny's apartment, the old woman makes Bunnie promise that she will light a candle for her in the cathedral after she passes away. Bunnie agrees. At the cathedral, a 17th century colonial masterpiece, Raul is disgusted by the opulent religious symbols displayed all around and proclaims the Church is what really rules Cuba, not Batista nor anybody else, but this 'travesty of faith.' When he later finds himself alone before a statue of Christ on the cross, however, he is mesmerized by the statue's visage, not unlike that of Castro's he has seen earlier on TV. A profound change comes over him and he is swept away emotionally by the Christ-like charisma of Cuba's new savior 'Fidel.' Bunnie and Raul finally make it back to the mansion safely. Raul has, by now, grown impatient with Bunnie's 'American princess' behavior and he has become quite intoxicated from heavy drinking. He is behaving rudely in Bunnie's opinion which reminds her all-too-well of her ex-lover Eddie. Raul is amused at Bunnie's comparison and taunts her about Eddie's masculinity. Bunnie then realizes just who Raul really is. The two of them had, simultaneously and unhappily shared Eddie as a lover years before. Bunnie is furious that Raul had kept his identify from her. In the ensuing anger, however, Raul is overcome again by his attraction for Bunnie and he grabs for her, kissing her passionately. Bunnie is ever receptive and again, they make love. At dawn, the two lie together in each other's arms while outside, the rebels cautiously approach the mansion. Bunnie begs Raul to leave Havana with her and her friends but Raul declines. He is now a changed man. Raul explains the importance of Cuba's newfound freedom and why every Cuban patriot 'must now stay and work for her everlasting liberty.' Outside, the rebels are now on the mansion grounds. Bunnie hears something outside and goes to the window to look out. She catches a glimpse of the rebels moving up. Bunnie then hears a yacht's horn outside and she runs to the opposite window to peer out at the bay. Her friends have come to pick her up. Bunnie searches for Raul's pistol, loads it and goes into the dining room where Raul has now passed out, his head lying on the table. Bunnie raises the pistol aiming it directly at the back of Raul's skull. From the living room, we hear a pistol shot and moments later, outside, we see Bunnie hurrying down the back hillside steps toward the waiting yacht. When the rebel commander enters the mansion, he finds the living room empty. Then, he walks into the dining room where he discovers Raul's perceived lifeless body and the pistol lying on the floor nearby. The commander reaches down and picks up the pistol, contemplating. On the mansion's terrace, a young rebel waves the Cuban flag proclaiming the revolution a success while the yacht and the Americans sale off into a sparkling sea 'as the party continues.'

5234 ::: Lost Rivers (2012) ::: documentary ::: Once upon a time, in almost every industrial city, countless rivers flowed. We built houses along their banks. Our roads hugged their curves. And their currents fed our mills and factories. But as cities grew, we polluted rivers so much that they became conduits for deadly waterborne diseases like cholera, which was 19th century's version of the Black Plague. Our solution two centuries ago was to bury rivers underground and merge them with sewer networks. Today, under the city, they still flow, out of sight and out of mind... until now. That's because urban dwellers are on a quest to reconnect with this denigrated natural world. LOST RIVERS takes us on an adventure down below and across the globe, retracing the history of these lost urban rivers by plunging into archival maps and going underground with clandestine urban explorers. We search for the disappeared Petite rivičre St-Pierre in Montreal, the Garrison Creek in Toronto, the River Tyburn in London, the Saw Mill River in New York, and the Bova-Celato River in Bresica, Italy. Could we see these rivers again? To find the answer, we meet visionary urban thinkers, activists and artists from around the world. Once flowing through nearly every developed city in the world, rivers provided the infrastructure upon which modern metropolises were built. In this adventurous and revelatory look into the disappearance and recent resurfacing of these historic waterways, Lost Rivers leads us down the drain into vast underground museums of urban development. Guiding us through the hidden river networks of London, Brescia (Italy), Montreal and Toronto, intrepid groups of subterranean explorers known as "drainers" reveal the buried waterways that house the secrets of each city's past. Exploring recent initiatives to resurface and revitalize these forgotten waterways in Yonkers and Seoul, the fascinating Lost Rivers brings to life an aspect of urban ecology that has long been kept secret.

5415 ::: Even Here Even Now (2017) ::: short ::: The film Even Here Even Now interprets the voyage of Yuri Gagarin, the first human being to travel into space. Through a mostly abstract, at times playful and at times austere lens, the film aims to explore the societal and personal context in which Gagarin travelled to space, and what such a journey meant to Soviet society and to the people on the ground. The space race mobilised the greatest resources of the Soviet state, both technological and financial, at a time when much of Russian society still lived in rural, quasi-feudal conditions that had remained largely unchanged for hundreds of years. When Gagarin soared into the sky on his symbolic mission to impress his nation, the West and the world, what did his siblings, his parents, and those with whom he had interacted in his childhood feel and think? How did they perceive this great leap into the dark, into the light, into the future, that left them so starkly planted in their own unchanging, unseen lives. By superimposing and blending the lyrical and the mundane, the futuristic and the rustic, the organic and the mechanical, this film aims to reimagine a moment in history whose human truth is obscured by the political propaganda of the time. The film was created to accompany the music of Nicholas de Carlo, whose fascination for the origins of space travel inspired his composition of the album Gagarin - Son of the Earth.

They selected as their architect the visionary new modernist, Tadao Ando.

5479 ::: The 15th Station (2009) ::: drama ::: On Good Friday in the Philippines every year, penitents are nailed to the cross in a bloody re-enactment of the passion of Jesus Christ over 2,000 years earlier. Who are these men? Why do they indulge in such extreme behaviour? 'The 15th Station" goes behind the clichés and, for the first time, allows the men to speak for themselves and to explain their "panatas"; the pledges to God they make to atone for past sins, to give thanks for favours, or to pray for help. Ruben Enage, the "first Christ" in the Holy Week pageant held in San Fernando Cutud was first nailed in 1985 after he fell from a three-storey building. Over 20 years later, he is a local celebrity. Victor Caparas, a reformed crack addict, has a burning ambition to succeed Enage as "first Christ". Of the three, Roland Ocampo goes to the most extremes lengths to atone for past sins. After his penance is completed, he walks tall; clearly at peace. Ocampo is the moral centre of a film that draws no easy conclusions. Explaining the rituals are a trio of priests: Bishop Pablo David, Eddie Panlilio, who became governor of Pampanga in 2007 and Fr Lyndon Valenton. While the Catholic Church does not approve of the bloody rituals, it acknowledges the hold they have on the people. For the tourism authority, religion has nothing to do with it - the Holy Week Crucifixions bring in much-needed tourist dollars as a filmed press conference makes abundantly clear. Rumours abound that the "Kristos" are paid; greed and opportunism have taken over. For the people of Pampanga, Holy Week is above all a time or hope and renewal, just as Easter is for Christians all over the world. This is the central message of Wurth's thought-provoking film.

The guests are curious and they look through the case and examine a hypodermic needle and a phial of poison, a drop of which, the doctor explains, is sufficient to kill ten men.

The two men seat themselves before a pair of portieres; the banker produces a threatening letter sent to him by Brandt. They quarrel. From the rear a hand is seen to cut a rent in the portiere.

Upon the floor near the spot of the murder is found a threatening letter from Brandt to the banker. Every clue points to the fact that Brandt is the murderer and the doctor is overcome with terror of the situation. The police arrive, and Smalley turns over to the lieutenant of police all the dues which he has collected.

As the lieutenant is about to lead Brandt off Smalley suggests that the case pend a few moments while he make further investigations. Smalley sits in the chair, a moment before occupied by the dead man. He rehearses the moment preceding the murder. His eye finds the rent in the portiere. Behind the portiere he finds a hypodermic syringe with a broken needle and a lady's handkerchief. All ladies in the room disclaim ownership. By its rare perfume he concludes that it belongs to the hostess. He presents it to her and she faints, Julian is very much concerned. Smalley takes up Julian's cigarette case which lays upon the table. On its polished surface he finds the thumb spring bearing a V-shaped scar. Smalley places the hypodermic syringe in the cigarette case and leaves it on the table. Julian takes it up, opens it, and Smalley sees on his face that he is the culprit. Julian strolls to the door, when he is confronted by a policeman. He returns to the center of the room and in a glance between himself and Smalley he understands that the game is up. From his pocket he takes a small bundle of letters and hands them to his hostess. The lieutenant places his hand upon Julian's shoulder and arrests him. With a rapid movement Julian uses the remaining poison in the syringe to make his own quietus. He jabs the needle into his arm and dies as quickly as the banker. The letters that he gave the banker's wife were love letters and they show that it was at her suggestion that the husband be put out of the way to the end that they might secure their freedom.

In the Mississippi Delta, in a time before the boondocks had seen television and indoor plumbing, a young man's fancy turns constantly to thoughts of love. Billy Joe is no different in this regard and his persistence is making it difficult for Bobbie Lee to maintain her virtue (the dog-earred issues of "Torrid Romance" don't help either). Perhaps an indictment of the artificial conventions of society, the film demonstrates the tragic consequences of a young couple's first awkward grapplings with love and sex. As Bobbie Lee says shortly after Billy Joe's lifeless body is dragged from the Tallahatchie River, "What do I know of love... I'm only a child." Yet, there seems little doubt that what she feels for the dead boy is love. Could he have loved her so well?

We thought that by offering a social event every weekend it would help benefit the community. Our activities and the shows we organized were able to bring both the Irish and the migrants of the community together and furthermore helped to enhance the cultural interests between the two different cultures through entertainment. In 2006 we thought of the possibility of expanding it into a nationwide program due to the encouragement and positive feedback from the public in response to our programs, hence we have traveled to sixteen counties within Ireland portraying our ideas. To date, we have achieved our main aim, to be able to broadcast our program on Sky platform and also be able to achieve our permanent production resident studio that includes a live audience, production equipment and professional men and women trained in the field, working with our organization.

A Return to Action (17:22) is something of a piecemeal supplement that looks at Robert Downey, Jr.'s performance, Sam Rockwell's and Gary Shandling's contributions to the movie, the work of Director Jon Favreau, shooting the picture's dingy Moscow opening, filming at Edwards Air Force Base, the weapons seen in the film, and filming one of the picture's critical fight scenes. Expanding the Universe (18:56) further looks at prop and costume design, shooting in Monaco, filming the raceway action sequence, choreographing Scarlett Johansson's fight scenes, and the use of both practical and computer-generated effects in the movie. Finally, Building a Legacy (20:11) is perhaps the best segment of the four, examining the post-production processes of editing and scoring the picture and adding the finishing touches to make a complete movie.

Part one of this short documentary represents what we saw and learned first hand about the issue. As we continued to explore we found out that kids are sold for sex in every country, in every community regardless of their social, economical or ethnic background INCLUDING THE UNITED STATES. The second part of this short documentary film sheds light on the realities in our own back yard and points to some of the solutions. We have partnered with the LAPD, the FBI and on the field workers to gain special access and insight to the situation and bring it to the public eye through this film.

Problem is, when the conflict is over and governments are restored or new ones created, women are pushed back into the kitchen to make the tea for the party members. In 1994 in Chiapas, Mexico, an uprising started where the women had made sure their own demands of justice and equality were a distinctive part in the struggle against the oppressor. The Zapatista National Liberation Army, formed mostly of indigenous men and women, started a war of self-defense for their identity, their land and a place in Mexican society. The women rebels also wanted justice within their own culture. At present, the Zapatistas live in their own self-governed communities where women are supposed to have an equal footing and hold posts of power. Problem is, part of the Zapatistas' aim was to recover old traditions, and some of those justify abuse to women and gender injustice. The women are trying to hang onto the traditions they like and efface the ones that harm them.

5972 ::: On the Border, from the Distance (2016) ::: short ::: Breaking free from perspective, layers of images show frames within frames. Each picture steps from one space to another, flows from landscape to images, advances to moving images, pushes further into paintings, and finally lands on the pure spatiality. The exhibition is not only about the practice of viewing layered images progressively, but also an exercise to re-evaluate how time moves in a video. We have always considered moving images as a time experience that runs forward. The scope can be linear and straightforward, or curved and complex. Moving images all runs forward, from one end to the other, like a movie, a pop song or a living style. The video work does not suggest the order of linear time, and it offers no discernible dialogue or plot. Instead, the work whispers poetry-like narrations to bring viewers to a wander in time, reminding them of the ability of 'seeing'. That lingering, concentrated silence, and those paused time and space create invisible boundary to separate one from distractions in life. It is like roaming around the border, where everything seems to be scattered but complete, speechless but contented, present but formless. The meaning of the existence of memories and images lies in between.

Why do we bleed when, in nature, blood is synonymous with death? Diana's quest brings her a deeper understanding and appreciation of her body.

The action becomes their greatest failure but journalists and cameramen manage to film it. The information about punk church service and a clip with the song are published in the Internet. The media version draws a wide response, splitting the society into supporters of the action and those who feel indignation. The reaction of law enforcement was quick. Three participants of the punk church service are arrested and brought before the court. Their situation seems hopeless, they are threatened by seven years in prison. The prosecutor accuses them of hooliganism with the motive of religious hatred against Orthodox Christianity. This exaggerated attention of authorities, in turn, attracts to their action the eyes of the whole world. In the beginning, it may seem the girls have no support at all. But suddenly, a number of world stars express their support for the artists - Red hot chili peppers, Paul McCartney, Madonna, Franz Ferdinand and many others. They are offered liberty if they agree with the prosecution and repent for their "crime" but they remain faithful to their position. The court sentences the artists to two years in prison. Their defeat in the court becomes their moral victory. Concluding speeches of girls in court show they are not broken, they believe in their righteousness. All over the world, thousands of protesters wear color balaclavas chanting "Liberty to Pussy Riot!" The film shows that the phenomenon of actionism is situated at the intersection of the art, the history and the politics. The action of Pussy Riot could be interpreted as the continuation of the old Russian tradition of 'holy fools', those who were not afraid of speaking disagreeable truths even to Tsars. Revolutionary art of Russian avant-garde took its inspiration in Russian icons, and bright attire of Pussy Riot is inspired by suprematist images of Kazimir Malevich. Young actionist artists Nadezhda Tolokonnikova and Ekaterina Samutsevich decide to separate from the well-known actionist group Voina. They feel pressure of male participants of the group. They decide to create their own group that would express their ideas of female independence and liberty. That's how the Pussy Riot is born, combining actionism, feminism, media activism and punk rock.

As they play, each contestant will only know their own score. At the end of the questions, the scores of all of the contestants are revealed to the viewers, then host Andrew G asks the contestants to share their thoughts about the round and how they performed in it. It is up to the contestants to decide if they want to answer truthfully or try to bluff the other contestants into thinking that they did better than they actually did. The contestants then step forward towards their own "fold buttons" to take the "con test", and after some more discussion, they are given a ten-second countdown. If any contestant thinks, rightly or wrongly, that they have the least amount of money, they can choose to hit their button and fold, taking the money that they have earned to that point. If no one has folded by the time the countdown hits 0, then the contestant with the lowest amount of money is eliminated, and leaves the game with nothing. If there is a tie for the lowest score, then the speed with which the contestants selected their answers is used as a tie-breaker, with the slowest contestant being eliminated if they don't choose to fold.

6100 ::: Traberg (1992) ::: documentary ::: Traberg, like Udenrigskorrespondenten, is an experiment in fiction consisting of placing a character or a fictional sketch into a set of surroundings and seeing what happens. Moreover, for most of the film the surroundings are the same, namely the chaotic reality of Haiti. Ebbe Traberg plays Traberg, a mystical character who cannot be explained psychologically and whose seemingly covert activities care only hinted at in pictures. We follow him from a could of locations in Northern Spain (which the genuine Traberg was attached to, including the pelotafrontóns of the Pays Basques) to Haiti, where the film changes character. A narrator comes clean right from the start: "I didn't know where it would lead me. It was this thing about my old friend Traberg. I wanted to tell a simple story. But it was harder than I thought". The difficulty with the fictional story is that the genuine events (a military coup and the inauguration of Jean-Bertrand Aristide as president in 1991) are so intrusive that the narrator pretty much loses interest in Traberg and works in a hectic documentary style instead, although in the closing shots a resolution of the Traberg story is hinted at. The film also contains several detached scenes from Haiti, including sensual, dark dance shots, a series of adages pronounced by an elderly gentleman, conveyed by fading up and down, a girl bringing cocktails for the film crew at the Hotel Oloffsen, etc. This material points clearly forward in time to Haiti.

Most homes don't have windows, running water or electricity. A multi-ethnic, multi-lingual, small and astoundingly beautiful country, Nepal is also one of poorest countries in the world, with nearly half the people living below the poverty line. Outside of Africa, no country is poorer. What distinguishes Belsi from most other villages is that next to crumbling mud and thatched roof shacks are solidly constructed concrete homes, with vegetable gardens and cleanly swept yards. The difference is breathtaking. And instead of the shy and reserved women that inhabit most villages in the region, we meet Shanti, Sita, and Parabati, the women of Belsi. Working with Heifer International, a aid organization that promotes sustainable development through gifts of livestock, the women are now helping hundreds of other women and their families rise out of poverty. Deeply moving, '12 Stones' captures the remarkable transformation these women have undergone and illuminates the idea that you can bring an entire village out of poverty by first empowering its' women to be self-sufficient.

6377 ::: Shark Junction (2014) ::: documentary ::: Roca Partida looks little more than a rocky outcrop inhabited by seabirds. But below the waterline, the steep mountainous walls are surrounded by the greatest concentrations of fish of any reef in the world. This tiny island is one of four in the Revillagigedo archipelago, better known today as the Socorro Islands. Mexicans call it their 'very own little Galapagos'. Like the other great, internationally recognized marine sanctuaries, the islands have unique wildlife. They are the only place in the world to find the Clarion Angelfish. Squadrons of these bright orange cleaner fish are vital to the health of giant Pacific manta rays found in large numbers here. Huge schools of fish, especially jacks and tuna, provide a bountiful food source for large shark populations. Silky sharks, scalloped hammerheads, Galapagos sharks and silvertip sharks are seen in numbers rarely found in the world's oceans. Thanks to the clash of two great ocean currents, the tropical seas around Socorro feed a bustling underwater city of marine life. Whitetip reef sharks are among the most obvious residents of the steep reef walls. What makes Roca Partida so bizarre is how these sharks live their daily lives, piled on top of one another, sometimes three-deep, as they seek out any resting place they can. They are forced to share the rocks and ledges with giant lobsters and moray eels, making for an uneasy truce with critters that would normally be either prey or predator. Humpback whales visit the islands annually, to calf and to breed. They are seen caring for their young before the long journey back to the Arctic, revealing a gentle side of Socorro. At other times of the year, we witness action-packed baitball scenes with sailfish demonstrating their deadly killing techniques. Socorro's extreme shark behaviour is in full throttle when another baitball attracts hundreds of sharks and tuna attacking the fish until the bitter end. These islands may be small but they are more than a match for some of the biggest names in the world's shark hall of fame.

But increasing numbers of former followers are alleging he has sexually abused them or their families. This World investigates. Swamis, otherwise known as yogis or gurus, are the holy men of India, and part of ancient tradition. Sai Baba, 78, is based in Puttaparthi, near Bangalore in southern India. His distinctive 1960s orange robes and Afro hairstyle make him instantly recognizable. As the country's biggest "God-man" - a human being who declares himself divine - he professes to be the reincarnation of a Hindu God-man from the 19th Century. Sai Baba not only commands huge regular audiences at the local ashram (religious retreat) - where he performs countless "miracles" - he also boasts followers from more than 165 countries world-wide. But as the This World team discovers as they travel from India to California, there are a number of former devotees who have turned away from his teachings, claiming he has ruined their lives. Alaya, a former follower who claims he was sexually abused by the swami, says in the program: "I remember him saying, if you don't do what I say, your life will be filled with pain and suffering." In an intimate and powerful portrait, Alaya's family talks openly about how they feel they were betrayed. Back in India, there are serious questions to be asked of politicians, who seem to have continuously ignored the problem. Indeed, some would say, the correct position for these politicians appears to be at the feet of Sai Baba. He certainly has friends in high places, and throughout the scandal, his popularity has remained intact. Has this "God-man" been wrongly accused or does his status mean he is immune to criticism?

In the midst of a sudden loss of power on the political right and a destabilizing economic crisis, an apocalyptic right-wing populism has gathered force. SILHOUETTE CITY is an exploration of the apocalyptic style of reactionary extremism in America by providing a unique window into the foundational ideas, modes of communication and psychological dynamics of apocalyptic movements. If current events are prompting a resurgence of conspiracy culture and anti-government paranoia, the future of the American Right is at the fringes of contemporary apocalyptic Christian nationalism. In the age of a networked Christian Right, movement propaganda has the potential to reach a greater speed and audience than ever before. The film examines the striking ideological and rhetorical similarities between The Covenant, The Sword & The Arm Of The Lord (CSA)-a group that provided the model for militia group activity in the 1990s-and the mainstream Christian Right of today. It reveals how the apocalyptic intensity and rhetoric of final warfare are symptoms of those impulses opposed to cultural openness-and as the formal and conceptual methods of propagandizing their struggle are laid bare-the CSA provides a case study in grassroots response to right-wing apocalyptic impulses. Globalization, rapid worldwide economic expansion and the subsequent decline have rallied religious extremists internationally to join in a fight against a common enemy: modernism and secularism. This sense of urgent desire for radical closure seeks to find its expression-whether it be grassroots organizing, hate speech or direct violence.

However, by the mid-1990s he found himself being squeezed out by large agricultural corporations that bought up local potato processing plants, grain storage facilities and other agricultural businesses, and soon formed a cartel that began paying local farmers prices for their crops that were so low many of them are in danger of losing their farms--including Wolf. But dark clouds were growing over the farm's future. By the mid-1990s, globalization rained down upon Idaho with a vengeance. The world's second largest food corporation began buying local potato processing plants, grain facilities, fertilizer and pesticide merchants. Other multinationals followed suit. At the end of the 1990s, a cartel of powerful corporations controlled Idaho's markets for agricultural products. The prices paid to Wulf and his neighbors for their potatoes, grain, cattle and sheep reached an all time low. Not even 3000 acres seemed sufficient to make a living any more. American Dream is a film about one family's struggle to save their farm in the face of corporate greed. The film chronicles Wulf as he and his sons fight to preserve their livelihood. The film is also an indictment of big corporations who have squeezed out the small farmer. Behind Wulf's personal struggle, we see the economic landscape of agricultural markets that are increasingly monopolized by huge multinational corporations.

6701 ::: The Gadarene Swine (2011) ::: drama ::: Based on Actual Events, The Gadarene Swine is a modern-day parable that explores the consequences of keeping our demons locked inside of us. Told through three thematically connected vignettes, the movie graphically shows how our personal demons destroy lives - not only our own, but the lives of those around us. These compelling and heart-wrenching tales will force you to ask yourself: "what demons am I holding onto?" The Gadarene Swine is a modern-day parable that explores the consequences of keeping our personal demons locked inside of us. With The Gadarene Swine, director Brian Smolensky experimented with narrative structure. The film has three acts, however, the way in which these sections interact is unusual. The audience experiences a Three Act Structure; however, not three acts from the same story. While each act deals with a same theme (what we do with our inner demons) and has a similar tone, they are independent vignettes with separate characters and problems. This narrative experiment gets more complex as each vignette is from the corresponding act of that story. This means the first short, "My Hero," is Act One of that narrative. The second, "Hush Little Baby," is Act Two from that story. And the third, "Gadarene Swine," is the final act from that story line as well as the final act of the film itself. Instead of following characters through a three act arc, the audience follows actors. Taking a cue from his time in the theatre, Brian Smolensky sought to give this film the feel of A Night of One-Acts from the ensemble of a repertory theatre company (granted a rather macabre one). To this end, the same small group of actors portray all the characters. The actors are specifically recast in each vignette to allow them to complete an arc over the course of the three stories. Also making a three-act transformation is the set. The same location (a double-wide trailer) is used as the home of the main character in each short film. The crew remodeled and redecorated it for each story. As the film and it's characters deteriorate, so do their surroundings. The Gadarene Swine is a dark, disturbing, and experimental narrative feature that won the Best Feature Award at this years Queens World Film Festival in New York. The Gadarene Swine is comprised of Three (3) vignettes (My Hero, Hush Little Baby, The Gadarene Swine) each thematically based on elements from the dark, morally-problematic bible story know as The Gadarene Swine (a.k.a. The Healing of the Gadarene Demoniacs: Mark 5:1-13, Luke 8:26-33, Matthew 8:28-32).

6831 ::: "All Star Blitz" (1985) ::: game-show ::: "All-Star Blitz" was the last in a long-line of multi-celebrity games associated with game show producer Merrill Heatter, all which had in some way to do with his by far most successful effort, "The Hollywood Squares." In "All-Star Blitz" (incidentally hosted by "The Hollywood Squares" host Peter Marshall) two contestants, including a returning champion, competed with the help of four celebrities. Behind the celebrities' podiums was a wall of six electronic screens, which contained the words to a familiar phrase. The basic rules were similar to "The Hollywood Squares" (e.g., choose a celebrity, agree or disagree), but with the following changes: 1. When the contestant chose a celebrity, he/she also picked a star in in his/her column to light (i.e., "so-and-so at the bottom"); 2. The celebrity is asked a multiple-choice answer, and generally did not bluff; and 3. If the contestant was correct, he/she continued control of the board, but if not, control passed to the opponent. Whenever four stars around a screen were lit, that screen exposes part of the phrase. At any time, the contestant in control of the board may guess the phrase, always at the risk of losing control if incorrect. The first contestant to solve two puzzles won a prize package worth approximately $4,000 and advanced to the Blitz Bonanza Board. In The Blitz Bonanza, the object was for the contestant to solve one more word puzzle; by spinning a wheel, the contestant could highlight and reveal portions of the puzzle. Up to four spins were allowed, though spins could prove to be unhelpful if they designated an already-highlighted screen. If fewer than four screens were lit, the contestant could either solve the puzzle or trade the prize package already won in the front game (all previous winnings were considered safe) for one more spin. Following the fifth spin, the contestant has 10 seconds to review the puzzle; at the same time, the celebrities write down their guesses as to the correct phrase. At any time during the Blitz Bonanza, a correct guess was worth $10,000 (plus an additional $5,000 for each day not won, up to a maximum $25,000); an incorrect guess at any time stopped the Blitz Bonanza, though he/she could collect $250 per celebrity who guessed the puzzle correctly. Contestants competed until defeated or winning five games, at which point they also won a new car.

6839 ::: Rank Flouers (2017) ::: drama ::: Principal shooting and editing was completed in 1982 on one inch video tape. When transferred to Betamax for the only private screening it ever received, there were so many technical difficulties that the movie was deemed unviewable by its creator. And because of the amount of debt already incurred by its creator the project was ultimately abandoned along with any hopes of a career in this field. The movie spent the next 34 years in basements until the creators 18 year old son convinced him to look at the movie again. After getting the movie transferred to digital the error of abandoning it was discovered and corrective transferring and editing was begun in 2017. The actors and crew who worked on this movie deserve to have it seen and with that hope it is being submitted to this Festival. I, the creator, believe this movie has a cohesive story about a man facing the failure of a life that he had slid into based on the illusion of what a life should be. Told in the Noir style it considers that style and what it might mean to someone who inhabits it as a way to hide from himself. We repaired this movie not from the original one inch video tape which was lost but from the Beta copy and all its deficiencies. I believe we have gotten it to a viewable state and hope that its excellent performances and interesting story can be appreciated.

6873 ::: The Adventures of Flannery (2008) ::: documentary ::: Cathal Coughlan began his career in eighties' indie outfit Microdisne. Disenchanted with what he describes in the documentary as that band's "increasingly Thatcherite aesthetic" Coughlan then formed the volatile and uncompromising Fatima Mansions in 1988. They soon became cult favourites of the early nineties. His subsequent work has seen him engage in more inter-disciplinary projects, while his solo work has seen him embraced by rock luminaries such as Scott Walker. The film explores the dual inspirations for his musical theatre piece Flannery's Mounted Head, first staged in 2005: Cork's Victorian 'madhouse' and the equally sprawling 'Arcades' project of the German critic and philosopher Walter Benjamin. Coughlan's song-cycle narrative centres on Flannery, a marginal character who starts out as the night manager in a call-centre. Gogan, who has worked with Coughlan on various projects over the years, finds Flannery's story remarkably akin to that of his creator and uses Flannery to explore his creator's own biography. The film features the live imaging work of Rob Flint, 3D animation of Jordi Perez Artigues, and actor Donal O'Kelly appears as Walter Benjamin/Mister Bungle. "The Adventures of Flannery is much more than an ordinary artistic collaboration.

Departing Annapolis, MD in a scrappy old 27-foot fiberglass sloop without fanfare, 30-year-old Rutherford braved the icebergs of the arctic and mountainous waves of Cape Horn to become the only person to ever sail single-handed, non-stop around the Americas; a 27,000 mile journey many professional sailors declared "a suicide mission." As a youngster, Matt's ADHD and tics made life at home and at school near-impossible. At age 13 he was in drug rehab and he spent his remaining teen years more on the streets than in school. Then, at age 17, locked up in a cell, he had an epiphany and decided to turn his life around. Matt attended and excelled at a special high school for troubled youth where he developed a desire to explore the world. After graduating, he bought his first sailboat - sight unseen on the Internet. Over the next few years he bought boats on the cheap, fixed them up, and learned to sail on the fly. In 2008, Matt embarked on a single-handed voyage from the USA to Europe, West Africa and back across the Atlantic to the Caribbean. He'd found his calling. In 2011, Matt took on his biggest challenge: a solo, nonstop circumnavigation of the Americas. He did it for himself, and to raise money for disabled sailors. After 309 days at sea, Matt achieved his goal and sailed into Annapolis to a hero's welcome. Matt's story is told through his own words and interviews with his family, sailing experts, and others. We use family photos and video of his childhood; Matt's own footage of his early sailing days; and video, audio logs, and stills from his historic around the Americas voyage.

6953 ::: Radio Days (1987) ::: comedy ::: Woody Allen's sentimental reminiscence about the golden age of radio. A series of vignettes involving radio personalities is intertwined with the life of a working class family in Rockaway Beach, NY circa 1942. A man reminisces about his youth, growing up in the 1930s and 40s in New York. We see and hear stories of himself, his parents, neighbours and friends and local celebrities. The common denominator in all the stories and in the overarching plot is the presence of the radio - it brought music, news, stories, escape and comfort, made stars of everyday people and was often the glue in families and relationships. Joe, a New York Jew, fondly recalls his growing up period in the late 1930s and early 1940s in Rockaway, Queens. He not only lived with his parents - his father who would not divulge his occupation to Joe - but also with his mother's extended family out of financial necessity. That family consisted of biological aunts, an uncle by marriage, his grandmother and a cousin. Each member of the family had his or her routine - such as his cousin Ruthie listening to the neighbors' goings-on through the telephone party line - which grounded the activities. With the diversity of those activities, what tied the family together was listening to the radio. While the adults listened to a variety of talk shows and game shows - the former often providing an escape of being able to peer into the lives of the rich and famous - Joe loved the serials, and would have done anything to get a Masked Avenger secret decoder ring, the 15-cents which he didn't have to send away for it. Joe also recalls the back stories of some of the players in the New York radio scene, one in particular, Sally White, who wanted desperately to become a radio star, who worked as a cigarette girl at a Broadway club where many radio personalities hung out, and who was saddled with a non-radio Brooklyn accent. The radio also was the conduit for breaking news, some on a global scale - such as the US entering the war following the bombing of Pearl Harbor - and some more on a personal scale, both which nonetheless kept the listener glued to the radio for the outcome. But what everyone listened to was the music, especially his single Aunt Bea who wanted to get married but who always seemed to attract the wrong type of man. Joe still places certain songs from the era with certain events in his and his family's lives. But with each passing year, those memories become less pronounced in his brain. Several generations of a family packed into a pre-War Rockaway house always have the radio on. The fearless Masked Avenger, breakfast-show socialites (and philanderers) Roger and Irene, and Sally the Cigarette Girl are almost important as, say, whether the Pacific is a better ocean than the Atlantic, or even what your dad actually does for a living.

6978 ::: Unlikely Heroes of the Arab Spring (2014) ::: documentary ::: Presented by the award-winning author and property-rights activist Hernando de Soto, this public television special presents, for the first time, the basic human and economic events that led to the Arab uprisings in the Middle East and North Africa. The program shows that "The Arab Spring" was less a political event than it was about the coming of the industrial revolution to a region where over 90% of the population lives and works outside the rule of law. De Soto shows us that this informal economy is, however, the one common thread that can contribute to the region's growth and stability. Amid provocative images of the Arab uprisings of 2010 and 2011, De Soto introduces the people and events that recently rocked the Arab world, sparked by the self-immolation of the poor, 26 year old street vendor, Tarek Bouazizi. It was not the $225 lost from his fruit cart, expropriated by the police, that transformed young Bouazizi into a martyr and a symbol of the revolution - it was his similarity to the 180 million informal Arab entrepreneurs; many of them under 30 and computer literate. Over 100 of them followed Bouazizi in acts of self-immolation. The history of business in the Arab world is highlighted in sequences from Morocco, and the program demonstrates how business is thriving along with Arab culture in the international business city of Istanbul. Traveling through the region, De Soto summarizes, "Throughout the Middle East the story is the same. As the industrial revolution comes to the Middle East, the true path to stability rests in the region's single common denominator: the informal marketplace. The Arab consensus ahead is about more than emancipating the entrepreneurial spirit; it's about resolving the institutional deficiencies that make most Arabs desperately poor."

6992 ::: Funkytown (2011) ::: drama ::: Set in Montreal during the disco phenomenon some 35 years ago, Funkytown follows the life of a group of colorful characters. We follow their lives and tribulations as everyone converges on a regular basis at Montreal's hot disco spot: Starlight. Along the way, several events take place that change these characters' lives. As these characters' lives unfold, the Parti Québécois takes power changing the cultural landscape in Quebec while the disco craze slowly fades. While we keep up with these various characters - it is Bastien who is a central part of this story. His drug addiction, dreams to become an actor and womanizing - make him the "bigger than life" typical 70s character around which the whole story revolves. It's 1976, disco is king and the Starlight its primary palace in Montréal. Bastien Lavallée is the hottest guy in town, a radio DJ and the host of Disco Dance Party, the "it" show on television. Bastien used to be a serious actor, until these new gigs became his and his family's meal tickets. Bastien's abandonment of his original dreams, his excesses (especially of cocaine) fueled by this success and his sly neglect of his admiring daughter Cynthia Lavallée is much to the chagrin of his wife Connie Lavallée. The discotheque is owned by Daniel Lefebvre, an astute businessman, but its purchase was financed by his father, the domineering Gilles Lefebvre, a record producer, from under whose control Daniel can't seem to get out. Another star on the Montréal disco scene is Jonathan Aaronson, the openly gay trend-setter and trend reporter on Disco Dance Party. Into this world come Tina and Tino, a couple on and off the dance floor, they who won a dance contest at the Starlight, which results in them becoming the hot new couple on Disco Dance Party. Tino is fighting his own battles behind the scenes, both external ones with his mother about the family restaurant business, and internal ones about his hidden homosexual orientation which he denies to himself. The hedonism of the time is epitomized by Adriana, a beautiful but basically talentless woman who can get whatever she wants because of her looks, and if she sleeps with the right people. Conversely, Mimi, one of Gilles' former clients, is on a downward career path as her francophone sound isn't "disco". Those strongly connected to disco music are seemingly unstoppable in whatever they want in life and Montréal seems destined to be a part of this bright future. But four years later, as the province's governing Parti Québecois holds a sovereignty referendum, as past shady deals come to the surface, as disco starts to fade in favor of new wave music, and as what would eventually be known as the AIDS crisis begins, things look a little differently for this group and their futures.

7104 ::: "Chasing the Sun" (2001) ::: documentary ::: This 4-part documentary mini-series traces the development of commercial passenger aviation in the 20th century, from the Wright Brothers to the Concorde and beyond. In episode 1, "Heroes and Daredevils" rule the skies after the Wrights invent the first controllable powered airplane. Air travel is expensive, dangerous, and slow. Air mail becomes the big money-maker for the fledgling airlines after World War I. Passengers are not a priority--if there is room, they sit among the bags of mail. The public's interest in air travel is piqued by the adventures of Charles Lindbergh and the writings of his wife, Anne Morrow Lindbergh, perhaps the most well-known airplane passenger. In episode 2, "The Visionaries" develop new aircraft and build the infrastructure for worldwide air travel. Designers and engineers such as Donald Douglas, the Lockheed brothers, Jack Northrop, and William Boeing construct larger, faster, and safer airplanes, while airline executives such as Juan Trippe of Pan American and Jack Frye of TWA put together an expanding network of air routes, often with monopolies granted by the U.S. government. Traveling by air becomes an option for more and more people. Episode 3, "Into the Jet Age", profiles Frank Whittle's invention of the gas turbine (jet) engine and the resulting revolution in passenger aviation. Large jets such as the Boeing 707 bring air travel to the masses, although ticket prices are still relatively high. The supersonic Concorde is built by Britain and France, but fails to make money for the airlines--the future does not lie in that direction. Episode 4, "All Aboard", charts the final evolution of air travel from the province of the rich to affordable mass transportation, and looks at the problems that lie ahead. New jumbo jets help to relieve airport congestion and enable more and more people to fly. The U.S. government de-regulates the airline business in 1978, allowing airlines to set their own routes and prices. This brings about much lower airfares, but many airlines are unable to compete and go out of business. The airplane manufacturers, too, fall into difficult economic times--today only two companies make large passenger jets: Boeing and Airbus. And with the great increase in flights, the antiquated air traffic control system again struggles to keep up.

7211 ::: Pale peko bantu mambo ayikosake (2008) ::: documentary ::: In this documentary, filmmaker Bram Van Paesschen takes us to Katanga province, in the south of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Back in the days of Belgian colonial rule, Katanga was a prosperous mining area. It is now a devastated ruin; its vast industrial ghost sites and rusting machinery are now nothing more than a lasting reminder of its glory days... glorious for the whites. Its cobalt and copper ores are literally still there for the taking. Every day thousands of Congolese 'creuseurs' (artisan miners) labor in its abandoned mines, extracting the precious minerals using nothing more than a shovel and crowbar. Via a whole network of local and national intermediaries - each of whom naturally demands his piece of the pie - the fruits of their hard labor are eventually sold on to unscrupulous multinationals. The ores are then exported to the emerging economic superpowers, because these are ravenously hungry for raw materials. And so everyone prospers, except the Congolese diggers; they just stay poor... but when you are hungry you simply shut up and dig. Isaac is one of those 'creuseurs'. In a highly individual and occasionally humorous way, Bram Van Paesschen - who in spite of wishing and wanting, finds himself pushed into the role of 'the white Belgian'- sketches the day-to-day life of this Congolese youth, slaving away in this disconsolate decor. Isaac wants to go to university and hopes his digging will earn him the money he needs to enroll. But things are not that simple. The work is arduous and extremely dangerous. And because the 'creuseurs' are at the bottom of the social ladder, they are the dupes of the political machinations of the powerful players far above them. Isaac's motto is nevertheless "nothing ventured, nothing gained". And so he moves heaven and (lots of) earth to realize his dream. This cinematographic encounter between Isaac and Bram is an epic metaphor for a reality in which thousands of people live, survive and die... day after day.

7354 ::: "Punx" (2015) ::: documentary ::: A full-length documentary film and TV series in 4 parts by Thomas Robsahm about punk's breakthrough in Norway and its influence on culture and society. With, among others, Thomas Seltzer (Turboneger), Kjartan Kristiansen (Dumdum Boys), Edvard Valberg (Honningbarna). For young people in the late 70s, freedom of expression was used to scream out their message accompanied by raw, unfinished music that scared most people. Over 30 years later, Punk is more relevant than ever, but also more accepted. Punk differed from earlier youth rebellions by being more anarchistic, less politically correct and entirely unpredictable. A punk band could play at a Rock Against Racism-event with swastikas on their shirts. Provocation was key. But all rebellion has a reason. The punks were the hippie's children. They didn't buy their parents naive faith in a harmonious world. Peace & Love was the dream, Hate & War was reality. Many people associate Norwegian punk with the eve of the 1st of May and Blitz, but that was just a small part of it. Punk was so much more than politics and rebellion. It renewed Norwegian music, Norwegian pop lyrics, Norwegian literature, fashion, art, and especially journalism. Surprisingly many of today's leading journalists started their careers with punk fanzines or music newspapers towards the end of the 70s. Punx is a film about doing things yourself. That was punk's most important mission. You don't need to be a schooled musician to play in a band, you don't need a record company to release the music, you don't need a publisher to be an author, you don't need a newspaper to be a journalist. You don't even need freedom to express yourself, you just do it.

7429 ::: Little Claus & Big Claus (2005) ::: comedy ::: Hans Christian Anderson was only seventeen years old when he began publishing his many collections of endearing children's stories. Of the many books he eventually wrote, one of his more popular tales was woven around two men who lived in the same town and shared the same name - Claus. But, as the title asserts, that was where the similarities ended; for one was little in stature and clever of mind, and the other as big as an Ox - and just as dumb. The story of Anderson's life is one of grinding poverty in his youth, unhappiness in his romantic life and restless traveling. He was, he informs us, the ugly duckling, the lowest in the town's pecking order, the brunt of crude jokes and coarse criticism. Little Claus and Big Claus is a dark tale, riddled with Anderson's comic vision of the struggle of humanity. It is the tale of David vs. Goliath, Brains vs. Brawn, and in an ominous way, it is the story of overcoming our sinister demons Little Claus and Big Claus will be an adaptation of Anderson's original short tale into a visually stunning half-hour television piece. Hans Christian Anderson himself will be as a character. This addition was inspired by the following Anderson quote. "Ideas for tales, lie in my mind like seeds and only need the kiss of a sunbeam or a drop of malice to flower."

Annually thousands of devotees assemble in Thiruvannamalai, Tamil-Nadu, to take part in the many street and temple ceremonies and to offer sacrifices to Shiva. The film juggernaut observes these events from close range and so transports the viewer to an unfamiliar world. In a voice-over one of the pilgrims tells us about his life. He is a saddhu, a holy man, travelling from one temple to another, begging his way around the country. Following the death of his wife and daughter he left all his worldly possessions behind and now all he owns are the clothes on his back. But he is at peace with his ascetic existence. His faith, which is not restricted to a single God, is all he needs. He worships Jesus, Allah and Shiva equally, depending on the temple he visits. As the film starts the town appears calm. A man is washing himself at a well, a woman is sweeping her porch, the last licks of paint are applied to the colourful chariots. But the crowd quickly grows and before long the main street is a pulsating throng of people. The high point of the festival is when a towering chariot, a temple on wheels, is pulled through the town by hundreds of men and women, using enormous chains. Using very few words, juggernaut respectfully portrays a town engulfed with religious devotion and dedication and shows the terrific power and energy released by communal rituals like these.

Billboard's Norwegian edition named the album one of the ten most important releases of the year. Also an active film composer in Scandinavia, Kaada has won numerous awards for his inventive scores. Magnet commented on Kaada and his unique work, "This Norwegian sound sculptor is a provocateur of moments ('50s doo wop, '60s girl groups) and sounds (F-hole hollow-body guitars, big band brass)..." CMJ said of his album, "This is what the Avalanches could've made if they looked beyond kitsch... Kaada erases the line between samples and live instruments; it's often impossible to tell which is which."

7781 ::: "Self-Destruct" (2010) ::: reality-tv ::: Jay Grewall brings us the gritty reality/docudrama - Self Destruct- the first show ever to take an up-close and hard-nosed look at the fascinating, and some would say "unnatural", psychology of the fighters who participate in Mixed Martial Arts (MMA). Through one-on-one interviews with the athletes themselves, Self-Destruct sets itself apart from the competition by being the only show to truly examine the cerebral side of the contest, and the mental framework that allows an athlete to invite and receive such brutalizing punishment. In addition to the athletes, Self-Destruct hears the analysis of doctors, psychologists, case workers, and parents. We know why we watch. Because we can't look away. But why do they choose this sport? Until now, no one has asked the most obvious question: "WHY?" Why does a normal, healthy person choose to repeatedly welcome pain, when every innate human instinct is to avoid it whenever possible? At what point in their lives did they choose this line of "work" as opposed to a traditional white-collar job, despite the very real possibility of sustaining short- and long-term injury? Why have these athletes emerged from their particular upbringings to adopt a lifestyle that revolves around self- mutilation? Up until now, numerous documentaries and TV shows have profiled Mixed Martial Arts and other extreme sports, but these past efforts merely observed the who, what, when, and where. Self-Destruct takes a raw, in-depth, but at the same time analytical look at the psyche of these participants, their views on pain, and what goes through their minds when their bodies encounter damage and injury. The series attempts to understand the athletes' moral, religious, and family values, their past experiences, and their general outlooks on life.

This film looks back over the history of the city in the twentieth century: over the rise and fall of the social system identified by sociologists as 'Fordism'; the way the city was shaped by the automobile; and its decline following the deindustrialisation which began in the 1950s, leaving it ill-adapted to the post-Fordist society of the epoch of globalisation. Much of the story is told through a rich variety of archive footage - of the Ford plants, mass protests of the Depression years, Diego Rivera painting his famous mural 'Detroit Industry', the struggle for trade union rights, the riots of 1943 and 1967 - through which the film charts the battle over the image of the city and its industry that began when the Ford Motor Company started making its own films back in 1913.

This project was called "The Heritage Initiative." Contrary to its name, this plan was going to eliminate the downtown's heritage by displacing 850 people from their homes as well as destroy playgrounds, vegetable gardens, and historic buildings. Moving residents out of the city and improving traffic flow was at the heart of this proposal... It was 1960's Urban Renewal all over again. As tragic as the circumstances were, the threat of a road destroying the neighborhood required residents to rise to the challenge of becoming *community organizers. Instead of allowing their neighborhood to be paved over, the residents of downtown organized themselves into a group called "The Visible Community." They received support from non-residents alike - social service leaders, college students, and other people who recognized the Heritage Initiative as an unfair way of "cleaning up" the downtown at the expense of the people who lived there. What happened next was an incredible story of people coming together to protect their homes, hold their political leaders accountable, and work towards creating a democratic planning process that honored the input of low-income people as much as any other person's voice. This movie documents 5 years of development and community organizing in Lewiston, Maine. It reveals the strategies, the mistakes, the prejudices, the lessons... all of the difficult stuff that makes up the political process - the act of making decisions and setting policy TOGETHER.

7965 ::: "Pyramid" (2002) ::: game-show ::: More than a decade after its last run ended, "Pyramid" saw new life as a syndicated entry hosted by one-time teen heartthrob Donny Osmond. The basic premise was identical to the 1973 classic word association game: Two teams of two (a contestant and a celebrity partner) each try to convey words and/or phrases in any one of six categories. This time, they had just 20 seconds to guess six words correctly. As before the cluegiver could do anything short of saying the word itself to get his/her partner to say the word; the word can be passed on (and scored if they thought of it later), but if the cluegiver blurts out the essence of the word, the word is thrown out and the contestant can't score on it. One of the categories hid a "Super Six" card, which gave the contestant a bonus prize if all six words were guessed. Three go-arounds were played (the celebrity giving the clues the first time, the contestant the next time through and a choice of cluegivers in the final round). The contestant in the lead after all six categories were played (with tie-breakers played if necessary) went to the Winner's Circle. There, the team had 60 seconds to successfully convey six categories (as in the classic game, with only a list allowed) to win $10,000; the contestant won $200 per guessed clue if they failed to scale the pyramid. A second round is then played, with each contestant paired with the other celebrity. If a contestant wins the $10,000 in the first game and returns to the Winner's Circle with the other celebrity, he/she can win $15,000 more by again successfully climbing the pyramid. All $25,000 winners in one episode (no returning champions here) returned for a $100,000 tournamet.

7994 ::: Looking for Exits: Conversations with a Wingsuit Artist (2015) ::: documentary ::: Wingsuit base jumping is an extreme sport in which the pilot jumps from high peaks often above cloud level, navigating their way back to earth through forests and past cliff faces at speeds up to 240 kph. 'Looking for Exits - Conversations with a Wingsuit Artist' is a contemplative film; combining stunning photography with a podcast-inspired conversation with Ellen Brennan who is known within the wingsuit-community as a true artist. She's the fastest flying woman in the world, residing amongst the mountains in Chamonix Mont-Blanc she spends her days and sometimes nights looking for suitable cliffs from which she can soar. Ellen refer to these suitable cliffs as 'exits'. American Ellen Brennan is the fastest woman in the world. In her small wing suit, she takes off from mountains high above the clouds and fly close to trees and cliffs at top speeds around 150 mph. More than an adrenaline rush she's looking for an alternative way of life. *Watch in HD In free fall from a peak at 240 km/h in a flight suit. A philosophy of life converted into a dizzying practice by a very brave woman. When Ellen Brennan throws herself from a mountain peak above the clouds in a flight suit and falls towards the ground at 240 km/h wearing a small GoPro camera on her helmet, you have to be made of steel not to become dizzy by her audacity and defiance of death. Ellen is a solitary woman in the male-dominated world of base jumpers. An extreme sport where one's career typically lasts a maximum of 5 to 6 years. But Ellen is more than just an exceptional athlete with nerves of steel on the lookout for an adrenaline boost. 'Looking for Exits' is a portrait of a woman for whom the dizzying flights in the mountains is an entirely practical manifestation of a larger outlook on life, which the journalist and director Kristoffer Hegnsvad gives a cinematic form in his latest film. 'Exits' is not just the base jumpers' professional term for the places to jump off. It is also a way to approach the world on your own terms, and it takes place in free fall. An athlete and airborne artist, Ellen Brennan flies above the clouds with her special suit at 240 kilometers per hour. As if she was a current version of Henry David Thoreau or a flying Nietzsche, the filmmaker explores the philosophical side of an unpredictable woman. First-person photography of Brennan flying off one cliff after another is a pulse-pounding spectacle to behold, but filmmaker Kristoffer Hegnsvad offers an equally compelling philosophical angle on the life of this remarkable athlete. Far more contemplative than most extreme sport films, Looking for Exits casts Brennan's incredible feats in a metaphysical light. Revealing conversations capture the contradictions apparent in someone who clearly lives life to the fullest, but defies death on a daily basis. Although Brennan knows that something could go wrong with any jump, she can't help but keep living her dream. A "normal life" just isn't in the cards for her. Interstitial sequences of ordinary people in Chamonix going about their lives while Brennan floats high above highlights the contrast between her current existence and the one she may be forced to live one day. -CP

The mother's character is quite familiar, but this film is unique in that the director delicately portrays how the controlling mother wants to deny that her son is destined to leave her by following the characters' emotional flows and gazing at their twisted desires. Luminita Gheorghiu turns in an extraordinary performance in playing a mother struggling to "save" her son. Heading to the conclusion, the film shows that the unhealthy mother-son relationship is not that simple when it comes to matters of humane duty. On the night of her birthday celebration, Cornelia, a well-connected, wealthy architect, receives an alarming telephone call informing her that her beloved son Barbu is involved in a car accident. The disturbing news is bound to get worse, as insinuations about the death of a little boy, tend to become a rock-solid reality. In the safety of the police precinct, away from the angry family members that demand immediate justice for the loss of their child, Barbu who's been living with his girlfriend away from his mother, is waiting patiently in silence for help. It seems that in a town outside of Bucharest, next to a gas station, Barbu while overtaking another car, failed to see that from the three kids that were running across the highway, one of them was coming in from his blind side and even though he attempted to swerve, he was unable to evade the poor boy. This unfortunate event will mark the rekindling of an already difficult mother-son relationship, where the shifting of powers between an ever-present, overprotecting and almost suffocating mother, and a pampered but trapped son who wants to break free, is always in favour of the mother. Amidst facts and the manipulation of them, reality and bending of the truth, this desperate but meddling, still, caring and loving mother, will unleash the unstoppable force of a mother determined to do anything for her child.

'Muzaffarnagar Baaqi Hai...' (Muzaffarnagar eventually...) straddles between various socio-political-economic dynamics in the areas that have been affected by the violence. This documentary speaks to a cross-section of people. While looking at the immediate violence and it's repercussions, it takes a journey around the many facets of the massacre- the question of a woman's 'honour', which becomes the biggest rallying point to instigate people, the way communal polarisation was orchestrated, the merging of caste identity politics within the larger political fold and the breakdown of the once powerful farmers' union - Bhartiya Kissan Union - from this region, whose survival hinged on the unity of Hindu and Muslim peasants. It also explores the various aspects of Dalit politics in the districts and the dubious role of the ruling party in Uttar Pradesh at the time of the riots. All these aspects are weaved together by the 2014 Indian General Election campaign. The documentary looks at how the massacre finally found its resonance in these elections. But in the midst of this gloom the documentary narrates the tale of a continued and growing resistance in Muzaffarnagar and Shamli districts against the corporate- communal nexus. Muzaffarangar and Shamli districts have not given in yet. And so, the film asks the question, what will be the fate of Muzaffarnagar, eventually?

8312 ::: "Stock Squad" (2005) ::: documentary ::: The crime scene is not in a high-rise building in the Bronx or a hotel room in Las Vegas.

In remote properties across Queensland crime is as rife as it is in the inner city. The land is harsh. Graziers have to survive extended droughts and sudden floods all within a year, all potentially crippling. But if that is not enough they also fall victim to cattle theft; thefts that can make the difference between staying on the land or going bust; thefts that are difficult to police, hard to prove and sometimes impossible to prosecute. The team that are faced with this daunting task is the Queensland Stock Squad. Their patch is six times the size of England. They have learnt the skills specific to policing the outback - horseback riding, bush survival, a sharp eye for evidence hidden in the dust and an unswerving sense of loyalty to their workmates and the law. Cattle theft is now a highly organized crime; modern criminals use helicopters to muster thousands of dollars worth of cattle away from a property. Using huge road trains thieves quickly transport their stolen booty across state borders or turn them into steaks overnight with mobile abattoirs. Satellite phones and the Internet are tools that ensure the crooks a quick sale or a fast getaway. These crimes are siphoning a staggering $47 million out of an already stretched rural economy. But there is also the mundane and quirky, which can include sifting through years of faded receipts or trying to find a lost chook's owner. "Stock Squad" follows a team of detectives, whose beat is 1.7 million square kilometres of rugged country, as they bring justice to the outback and solve seemingly impossible crimes.

8327 ::: Great Bear Rainforest (2001) ::: documentary ::: A one-hour documentary about the breathtaking beauty of British Columbia's Great Bear Rainforest, and its imminent destruction by the logging industry. The two-million hectare Great Bear Wilderness is the largest intact area of ancient temperate rain forest remaining in the world. A small but dedicated group of people, working through a handful of grass-roots organizations, are lined up against forces determined to destroy the integrity of this unique biological wellspring. Only 0.2 percent of all the land on Earth ever supported temperate rain forest. Half of that is already gone. A quarter of what is left is in British Columbia. Of the province's original 353 rainforest watersheds, only 69 are intact. What remains are under direct threat by commercial interests. Logging companies, armed with permits from the government responsible for British Columbia, intend to reap this natural resource by using totally-destructive, clear-cut logging techniques over the next 5-10 years. The forests are being logged primarily for export to the United States, Japan, and Europe. The documentary features spectacular and extremely rare footage of the Kermode bear, also known as the Spirit Bear (more rare than the Chinese Panda). It is a very rare sub-species of black bear that has pure white and can only be found in The Great Bear Rainforest. We meet the First Nation people that have called the rain coast home for a thousand generations, consider the land a sacred living temple, nature's gift to humanity. The documentary tells the story through the eyes of the Academy-award nominated actor, James Cromwell. Through his visit to this area, we connect with the magnificent beauty of The Great Bear Wilderness. A rich coastal marine environment combined with a mild, humid climate makes this area a true natural paradise. We see splendid roaring waterfalls, meadows carpeted with wildflowers, moss-covered stands of ancient trees, and rocky unspoiled coastlines. From up close, we watch grizzlies, eagles, black bears, and a pack of grey wolves fatten themselves on salmon that fill watershed streams in Summer, and early Fall. The temperate rainforest on the West Coast of British Columbia in Canada, has been characterized as the most biologically productive land on Earth. Thousand year old cedar trees, along with Douglas Fir, and Sitka Spruce nearly three hundred feet tall, reign over a landscape that is home to thousands of species of plants, birds, insects, and other animals. Streams that teem with salmon returning to spawn support well-fed populations of grizzly bears, orca, whales, black bears, and eagles. The Great Bear Rainforest documentary is a warning beacon revealing the imminent threat to one of Earth's most important biological treasures.

8446 ::: Feud of the Trail (1937) ::: western ::: The basic plot is the standard lawman-hero-poses-as-dead-lookalike-outlaw in order to help dead-outlaw's father and sister from losing their ranch to neighboring outlaws, but lots of weird things (even more than usual in a Sam Katzman production)happen along the way, beginning with the cast order as shown on the film; the 4th and 5th billed Jim Corey (misspelled as Correy) and Dick Alexander (known by and billed as such more times than he was as Richard)play a couple of brothers as part of a family gang obviously inspired by Ma Barker and her sons, and only have a couple of lines of dialogue in the whole film, while Roger Williams (as Lance, the only Holcomb brother with a given name) is billed below his two non-talking brothers. Lafe McKee, a major character who talks all the time, goes uncredited, as does director Bob Hill (the name he used on more films than he did Robert F. Hill), who plays the Protective Association Chief, but Hill, while appearing in many of the films he directed seldom took an actors credit. Most of the Victory Pictures produced by Sam Katzman starring Tom Tyler were marked by the unusually small amount of performers seen on screen,and were usually filmed with only two interiors (which set decorator Fred Preble would disguise from film to film by hanging the same set of checkered drapes in different places) and featured a lot of riding around outdoors, and no town scenes. Sam knew if there were no town scenes, he didn't have to pay a dollar or two for people walking across the street or hanging out in the saloon or rent any extra horses to tie to the hitching posts. For reasons unknown, since it had nothing to do with the plot and advanced it not one whit, Jerry McLain (Milburn Morante), who plays the lawman sidekick to Tom Wade (Tom Tyler)and McLain is actually the one who shoots Jack Granger (also played by Tyler), rides to a town and sings (dubbed)"The Old Chisholm Trail" for a bartender, a piano player and a dozen or so barflies, all of which must have cost Sam at least fifty extra dollars. Morante and Tyler also sing the song (neither one dubbed and should have been)on the trail, and later on Harley Wood (billed as Harlene)plays it on the piano at the ranch and sings nicely, while Tyler sings along in a losing effort. Same song three and a half times in a Victory production is about three and a half more than the norm. The half comes when Morante, after jawing with the bartender, tells the piano player to play it again (Katzman had the piano player on a day rate and probably wanted to get his money's worth) and Morante's dubbed voice takes over again. Plus, the brother-sister relationship when Sheila thinks Tom is her brother is more than a little cozy to begin with, and heats up some when she learns that Tom is not her brother, even though he is his exact double. Somewhere, somebody forgot to shoot the scene where John Granger (Lafe McKee) explains that Sheila is not really Jack's sister, but had been adopted by Pa Granger when her parents were wiped out by "injuns" or something. Most likely blew that part of the budget, intended for that scene, on the unneeded barroom scene. A man who's a dead ringer for the leader of an outlaw gang kills the gang leader, then takes his place to try to bring the gang to justice. The Holcombs are after the Granger ranch as they know there is gold on it. When Tom Wade arrives just as Lance Holcomb shoots John Granger, he is mistaken for his look-alike Jack Granger, the outlaw he has just killed. He continues the hoax by posing as Jack as he and sidekick Jerry go after the Holcombs.

The artist began her research, with the help of PCAI, from regions in Ecuador - the first country to recognize the rights of nature in its constitution - where Polyeco, a hazardous waste management company, has undertaken to remove the toxic pesticides formerly used in agriculture. In the film, the impact on the life of the locals and the behaviors and practices that propagandize for the presence of Western interests at the expense of indigenous communities are perceived as examples of a kind of 'toxic colonialism' that harms life itself far beyond any damage to the natural environment. In the video of Alavanou, the parasitic attributes of such mechanisms are also highlighted through sound, which is treated as an extra composite material created by an allegorical recycling of elements drawn from many different sources of pop culture.

We visit the site of an industrial accident where help for one man has come too late. The film ends with an emergency call that turns out well.

When he finds that Morg was a sheriff for a long time before he became a bounty-hunter, he asks the older man to teach him. Morg thinks that being a sheriff is a foolish goal, but agrees to instruct Ben in handling people, more important to a sheriff than handling a gun. The veteran bounty-hunter and once a man of the law, Morgan Hickman, rides into a small town to deliver the dead body of a wanted outlaw at the office of the temporary and novice Sheriff, Ben Owens. Despite the townsfolk disdain towards him, Morg needs to spend the night in the unwelcoming town to collect the $500 reward claim, while in the meantime, he notices that the over-anxious young Ben, has problems of his own with the trigger-happy local bully, Bart Bogardus. But much to his surprise, when the inexperienced Sheriff finds out Hickman's former profession, he will eventually talk him into becoming his mentor, nevertheless, are a few days enough to learn the tricks of the trade? Morgan Hickman is a bounty hunter bringing a dead man into a town of people who, as usual, hold him in contempt. He's steeled to the cold reception though, saying in that inimitable Fonda manner, "I don't mind the chill: I'm after money." Ben Owen - the town's young, temporary sheriff - desperately needs the confidence that can only come from knowledge and experience, and though he tries to treat Morgan Hickman with the same disdain as the townspeople, he sees that Hickman - bounty hunter or not - KNOWS how to act, how to handle dangerous situations, how to be the kind of man that Ben wishes to be. When Ben chides Hickman with, "I wouldn't expect no bounty hunter to appreciate this badge," Hickman answers sharply, "I wore one a lot longer than you ever will." At this, Ben's face shows shock, then hope. He suddenly sees Hickman as the man who can teach him to be a sheriff. The rest of the movie offers us a veritable graduate course in Western frontier law enforcement. In teaching the younger man, Hickman is inevitably reminded of why he once wore that Tin Star, and - in so doing - he rediscovers himself. [Cf: "The Outlaw Josey Wales"]

Reporter Rageh Omaar sets out to find out exactly what it is about the image that has defied imitation and explores new evidence that challenges the verdict on the Shroud. With unique access to the Shroud itself and those closest to it, Rageh goes on his own journey of discovery. He also visits the leader of the 1978 US investigation that was given access to the cloth for a week, Dr John Jackson, who, for the first time, and exclusively, reveals the results from the data collected and a lifetime of research. Two other Shrouds of Christ have existed at different times down the centuries. One is the Shroud of Constantinople, described as having an image of Christ and stolen by the Crusaders in 1204. The Turin Shroud appeared 150 years later in the family of one of those Crusaders. The other is the Shroud of Jerusalem that wrapped Jesus' body and which - according to John's Gospel - had such a profound effect when it was discovered. With the help of a team of international scholars Rageh explores new evidence that links the Turin Shroud to both locations and times. Could they be one and the same? But if they are, where does that leave the Carbon 14 test? New information about the behavior of C14 in the atmosphere exists which was unknown twenty years ago when the Shroud was dated. A new hypothesis has come forward that could explain how a genuinely old linen could produce a much "younger" date in certain conditions. Professor Christopher Ramsey of the Oxford Laboratory that did the original C14 test is collaborating on experiments to test the hypothesis. The results of this collaboration will be revealed in the film.

The traders come from a variety of countries in the former Soviet Union. They transport their goods to Warsaw or other cities west of the ex- USSR in unmistakable bags. In Russian, these traders are known as 'chelnoki'. The word 'chelnok' means 'weaver's shuttle' and graphically describes their peripatetic lifestyle. Most of them have exchanged their settled existences for a life of constant movement between their hometown and the bazaar. Many are academics who earn too little to survive. Others are unemployed or retired. The 'chelnoki' are pioneering entrepreneurs in a changing society. It is remarkable that it is mainly women who prop up their families in this way. Jarmark Europa is about two of these women, about me and about how this film came about.

Having lost her job as a music teacher through perestroika, she initially tried, like so many others, to make a living with cross-border small trade in Poland.

The T-shirt has gone from undershirt to personal medium and creative outlet. Over 50 years, it has achieved a special status and is one of our best-selling pieces of clothing. How did the T-shirt enter the fashion world? If Marlon Brando seduced women around the world with his sweat-soaked T-shirt in A Streetcar Named Desire, it's James Dean in Rebel Without a Cause, who launched the white T-shirt as a fashion item. Since then, the T-shirt has continuously been modified, and each of its forms, be it torn, oversized, screenprinted or tie-dyed, reflects the evolution of our society. 50 years and tens of billions of copies later, the T-shirt undoubtedly deserves a film which explores its fate with curiosity, humour, and a dose of criticism...

8563 ::: Deep Green (2010) ::: documentary ::: Called "a template" for getting off fossil fuels by the Los Angeles Times and praised for "offering hope instead of despair" by the Oregonian, this award-winning documentary ignites the debate on global warming with compelling examples of the ingenuity and resourcefulness being devoted to conquering the escalating climate crisis before it's too late. Over three years in the making, "Deep Green" was the culmination of a quest that began in the 1990s for Portland-based filmmaker Matt Briggs, when he first noticed the damaging effects of global warming on Northwest forests. Concerned, he attended scores of conferences, including the first of ten Bioneers in 1999, and spent four years pouring over the latest research through scientific journals and more than 400 books. When "Deep Green" began principal photography, many of the solutions-such as the first solar thermal plants, hybrid electric cars, and living buildings-had not advanced beyond the concept stage, or were just being built. Features visionaries Lester Brown of the Earth Policy Institute and bestselling author Michael Pollan, among several dozen global authorities. Filmed in nine countries, including China, by a team of world class cinematographers. Winner of the Environmental Preservation Award by the Artivist Film Festival. Almost every time we use energy, we burn carbon. Every time we burn carbon, we heat up the atmosphere. It's a dirty fact that Global Warming cannot be stopped as long as fossil fuels run our planet. In 2006, Al Gore's Oscar-winning motion picture, "An Inconvenient Truth," took us into the heart of the problem. Based on years of intensive research, "Deep Green" reveals the solutions as we accompany filmmaker Matthew Briggs on an epic journey to uncover the best people with the best ideas, strategies and cutting-edge technologies to reverse man-made global warming in time. Inspired and inspiring, "Deep Green" will leave you believing we can fix this-if we go deep green now.

8586 ::: Vukovar - poslednji rez (2006) ::: documentary ::: We believe that the historical distance of fifteen years is large enough to allow us to make an important, investigative documentary tied to the most painful point of this region. It is also very important to mention that this is the first Serbian-Croatian co-production about this painful topic, whose wounds have yet to heal, even after fifteen years' time. Reporters and investigators from both sides of the Danube River, located in the middle of Europe, and in whose waters' corpses had floated for nearly a decade, tried to solve the riddle of the true reasons that le up to the great Balkan tragedy. This is not a film made by outside observers or nonchalant journalists. Nor was it made by war dog reporters who are in the Balkans today, tomorrow in the Near East and in Baghdad the day after; some of us were in the middle of the apocalypse of Vukovar while the city was being torn apart. Some were running from Milosevic' regime's attempts to make them soldiers of the Yugoslav National Army and mobilizing them to participate in the foolish operations of destroying Vukovar. Others who were independent and crafty were able to, as people and reporters, spend time on both the Serbian and Croatian sides of the front. We are now, once again, on the same mission, to, with the help of the survivors and available archives, try and put together the pieces of this impossible mosaic. We have created an insider's story about what actually happened in Vukovar. This is the first objective and propaganda-less film, which is neither a Serbian documentary nor a Croatian one. With no intentions of serving any political causes, this film is more interested in serving the purpose of truth. We are all interest in the story of Vukovar, because it is a part of all of our lives. We have tried to comprehend why Vukovar, a rich Slavonian town famous for being a "miniature Yugoslavia," Tito's exemplary town of unity, was the one location to suffer total apocalypse, one comparable to the sacrifice and siege of Stalingrad, and by the extent of destruction, and scenes shown around the world, reminiscent of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

8591 ::: Nearer My God to Thee (2006) ::: documentary ::: Marc Israel had been filming his life for a decade, including hitchhiking & street-performing adventures, love connections, and ongoing emotional struggles. Then, in 2004, a series of near-plagues occurred one after another: a severe case of heartbreak after a failed long-term relationship, an invasion of ants, followed by moths, into his apartment, physical injuries including two massive earaches and a frightful accident concerning his private parts, and, finally, the sudden loss of function in his arms due to chronic tendinitis. Deep in despair, Marc by chance came across a T.V. documentary on the internationally renowned "Miracle Man" healer, John of God, and quickly booked a flight to Brazil. What follows is an exploration of the Self, via encounters with the mysterious and controversial John of God, his community of pilgrims and self-styled spiritualists, the sacred ceremonies of the Fulnio Indians, the jungles rife with strange life, all of which are interwoven with ghostlike flashbacks drawn from years of constant video self-surveillance. Through images both real and surreal, conversations with friends, visits to doctors and therapists, intimate video journals, detailed probes into the natural world, and the editing process of the film itself (also documentary fodder), Marc's pathology and innate wisdom often co-emerge to provide surprisingly humorous and lighthearted moments of relief. "Nearer My God To Thee" is an award-winning feature-length film that has played at film festivals around the world

With these rules, John and his team of warriors who call themselves the Purifiers set out into the Central Zones with other gangs for a meeting with rich capitalist warrior Moses. Moses and his associates believe that with the upcoming election, it's time for a new leader to work within the establishment and create a new world of order. And once he's on the inside, he promises the gangs who unite alongside him true power, profit and freedom. However, the Purifiers are a self-contained unit that fights chaos and crime by working outside the realms of the law to preserve the balance of power. They're totally against this concept of unity, as it goes against everything they stand for. But Moses makes it quite clear that those who aren't with him, are against him and his visions and must leave immediately. The Purifiers do so and before they know it, the various gangs, ranging from the Angels, to the Pumas, to the Eels are now trying to rub them out, as they try to make way to their own turf. The gangs want a piece of the action that Moses has offered and each will get their slice of the pie, if and only if, the Purifiers are stamped out of existence because they're an obstacle at this point. However, Moses is merely using this as a test to see what the Purifiers are made of, as he sees potential in John and wants him to work alongside with Moses to realize his goal.

Eve (Geraldine Page) and Arthur (EG Marshall) are a 60-something couple, recently separated. They have three adult daughters - Renata (Diane Keaton), Joey (Mary Beth Hurt) and Flyn (Kristin Griffith). Renata is a poet and is married to Frederick (Richard Jordan). Joey is (reluctantly) in advertising and is married to Mike (Sam Waterston). Joey is a film and TV actress. Eve is an incredibly negative woman and this has had a toxic effect on her children. This results in stifling, unsupportive relationships and joyless lives. In their early sixties, upper middle class suburban New Yorkers Arthur and Eve, an attorney and an interior decorator respectively, are recently separated on Arthur's initiative. Although he has long felt the want to leave Eve - he believing that she having created an environment in which the family existed and not truly lived, which manifested itself in the control shown in her interior decorating choices - Arthur decided to do so now because their three daughters are grown and on their own. Already suffering from clinical depression, Eve further suffers a nervous breakdown because of the separation, which to her was unexpected. Eve expects that Arthur will eventually come back to her. The separation and breakdown affect the three daughters in different ways, and exacerbates issues already existing in their lives. Renata, the eldest, is the talented one, talent which Eve admires. Renata is a renowned poet, who lives largely on Arthur being her benefactor. Renata is married to Frederick, a novelist, whose works achieve little acclaim. As such, Frederick feels emasculated by Renata's success, she who states that her praise for his work is truthful, and not just a means to stoke his ego. Joey, the second who suffers from middle child syndrome, is the bright but directionless one living in Renata's shadow. Joey has moved from one unfulfilling career to another. Due solely to proximity, Joey is largely tasked with Eve's post-hospitalization care, despite she knowing that her mother treats her like the unwanted child. Conversely, Arthur has always viewed Joey as the special one to who he always looks for validation. Joey is in a long term cohabitational relationship with Michael, a political activist who knows that Eve doesn't like him and who in turn doesn't like that Joey lets Eve run roughshod over their lives. And Flyn, the youngest, is the pretty one. She is a Hollywood television actress who fully realizes that what minor fame and fortune she has received is solely due to her looks. The lives of this collective becomes even more complicated when Arthur begins dating Pearl, who is the antithesis of Eve in every respect and who he wants to marry. Homage to Ingmar Bergman in this family drama involving a fashionable Long Island interior designer who tries to impose her overbearing, critical standards on her husband and her three grown daughters. The film is a realistic look at the relationships among one artistically-oriented family; one daughter is a successful writer; the second is looking for an artistic outlet; and the third is an actress. The mother has been deserted by her husband, their father. She thinks and hopes they may reconcile, but she soon learns that he has other thoughts that circle about a new acquaintance, a woman who has had two husbands and is still lively. Arthur decides to leave his wife Eve. Their three adult daughters Joey, Flyn and Renata must suddenly face up to the disintegration of the family: Eve feels quite helpless but Arthur is reluctant to come back. And the daughters also have some personal problems in their relationship with each other, their spouses and their parents...

8743 ::: The Ghost of Crossbone Canyon (1952) ::: western ::: One of the trade paper reviewers carped that this film's major fault was its choppy continuity that has it divided into two separate segments that have no apparent connection. Trade paper reviewers were seldom accused of being overly perceptive, as there was actually a connection to The Wild Bill Hickok television series as this "film" was comprised of two of the television episodes and the public could then line up and pay money at a theatre to see what they could have seen for free at home...if they had a television set, which a large number of the attendees didn't have in 1953. The first segment has Wild Bill (Guy Madison) and deputy Jingles (Andy Devine) "helping" a town boss collect the tax money and then keep him from stealing it, and then they ride on to a ghost town ("The Ghost Town" TV episode) to track down some stolen money. While the TV series rates way low on any scale, it and the features pasted from it are far better than any of the spaghetti westerns Madison found himself in later in his career. But, then, what isn't?

Actors 'Lee Grant (I)' (qv) and 'Paul Mazursky' (qv), producer 'Roger Corman' (qv), director 'John Carpenter (I)' (qv), film critic 'Molly Haskell' (qv), and journalist 'Peter Biskind' (qv) discuss the issues involved in six films of the 1950s. Topics include teenage loneliness, youth rebellion, changing gender roles, and the beginning of the sexual revolution. This documentary focuses on particular genres of movies made in thee 1950s. While most of Hollywood made films promoting the values of the day, many reflected an underlying rebelliousness or the foreboding that came from the fear of communism and the Cold War with the Soviet Union. Films like The Wild Ones and Rebel Without A Cause challenge the conformity of the Eisenhower era and a restlessness of youth that far pre-dated the youth movement of the 1960s. While science fiction films often represented the paranoia of invasion and the unknown, some films challenged traditional American beliefs. In The Thing, for example, the traditional movie response of trying to destroy the alien is challenged by promoting the importance of taking a more scientific approach and trying to learn from the creature. In films like Giant, the traditional role of women is questioned.

Romanoff has concealed his real identity, and is known as Koroff. But Abdullah, Zadija's Arab servant, is a hidden witness of an interview which he has with a military officer of importance, and informs Zadija of the real identity of the so-called Koroff. "The Black Snake" is greatly alarmed at the news, for she at once realizes that the man she has hoped to make her lover is the agent of the Government, and the possessor of plans of incalculable value to a secret society of which she is a member, and the recovery of which is her secret mission in the capital. By means of a hole in the dressing-room wall Zadija is enabled to be an unseen witness of an affectionate meeting between Blanche and Romanoff. The sight inflames her anger, and she jumps at the opportunity which a letter from her cousin Olaf, a leading member of the secret society, offers, both to serve the latter and to satisfy her desire for personal vengeance. She contrives to enter Blanche's dressing-room, in which Romanoff is waiting while the girl goes through her performance in the ring, and to slip into a drawer the letter from Olaf. Pretending she has seen Blanche place the letter there, she produces it and hands it to Romanoff. He is stunned at the thought that Blanche is his secret enemy, and agrees to Zadija's suggestion that he shall leave the city with her for a safe place. They set out before Blanche has finished her performance, but "The Black Snake" is unaware that D'Olton, an attache of the Governor, has seen their departure. Olaf, cousin of Zadija, has received "The Black Snake's" message that she is bringing Romanoff to the house, the headquarters of the society from which she is supposed to be rescuing him. Olaf greets them in the disguise of a butler. Meanwhile, on the strength of information left by Romanoff, orders are given for the arrest of Blanche for treason, and D'Olton and a number of soldiers go to the theater to seize her. She is just about to enter the ring, and succeeds in persuading the officer to allow her to go through her performance. This includes a leap from a plank near the roof of the building on to the back of a horse galloping below. Blanche jumps upwards instead, and, succeeding in catching hold of a window frame in the tower, breaks the glass and manages to get through to the roof. Her plucky dash for liberty is, however, ineffectual; the building is surrounded, and she is seized on the roof. Blanche is committed to prison, but her demeanor before the Governor impresses D'Olton, who, remembering the departure of Romanoff and Zadija, determines to get on their track. Romanoff, already grateful to Zadija for his supposed rescue from the grip of the secret society, and heartbroken at what he believes the treachery of Blanche, asks Zadija to be his wife. The proposal and "The Black Snake's" ready acceptance are overheard by Olaf, who himself loves his cousin, and he determines on the removal of his rival. In the meantime. D'Olton, the attache, sets out for the house which shelters "The Black Snake" and her victim. Before he reaches his destination he is attacked by a savage pack of wolves, which surround the sleigh and force him to cut the traces and make a dash for safety on the horse's back. Still he cannot outpace the enemy, and at last he is pulled to the ground, and only rescued from their fangs by the timely intervention of a number of peasants. The nearest house is that of "The Black Snake," and thither D'Olton, half unconscious, is carried by the villagers. Zadija recognizes him and scents danger. To reassure her D'Olton, who had ascertained by means of a small mirror in his cap that she is listening behind the curtain at the door to his conversation with Romanoff, informs the latter that Blanche has died in prison. When night comes, D'Olton, peering through the window sees Romanoff embracing "The Black Snake," and realizes how things stand. He enters, and Olaf, in the character of a butler, shows him to his room. D'Olton, taking Olaf by surprise; overpowers and gags him, and taking his clothes and wig, carefully disguises himself to resemble the pseudo butler. D'Olton telegraphs the Governor and the house is surrounded by troops. D'Olton meets the Governor and Blanche in the garden, and gives certain instructions to the latter. As "The Black Snake" is dressing she is horrified to observe in her mirror a reflection of the face of Blanche, whom she thinks dead. As Blanche mores forward from the curtains, the menacing figure in the mirror grows plainer, and at last, in a paroxysm of terror, Zadija breaks the mirror to fragments. At the same moment Blanche steps back behind the curtains. Zadija, thinking it has all been an illusion, but still alarmed, calls for Olaf. D'Olton enters in his disguise, and when Zadija goes to him in alarm to tell of the fright she has had, he claps handcuffs on her wrists. A moment later Romanoff enters.

9126 ::: Fiendens ansikte (2009) ::: documentary ::: An anti-war film about the personal suffering behind the hard statistics, which show that more than four million Vietnamese died during the Vietnam War, as opposed to 58,000 Americans.

The talking heads' stories are underpinned by family photos of friendly, smiling Vietnamese in uniform that contrast shrilly with the sometimes extremely horrific archive footage of bombardments and battlefields. The aural backdrop of modern soundscapes and music make the stories chillingly easy to identify with. Occasionally, a commentary provides some background information, but basic knowledge about the parties involved is assumed. The film gives equal attention to the stories of both men and women, particularly those in the Vietnamese resistance.

With an influx of new "it" girls from Kim Kardashian to Nicki Minaj, the images are inescapable. Women have taken drastic - and often dangerous - measures to achieve the impossible and often unreal. Is bigger always better? When it comes to breasts and lips, the answer has been yes - with thousands of women going under the knife each year in search of augmented features. In recent years, the focus has shifted from breasts downwards, towards other ass-ets. In fact, in 2013, the number of butt augmentations increased by 58%.

From Sir Mix-a-Lot, whose 1992 hit "Baby Got Back," sensationalized round posteriors - I like big butts and I cannot lie - to new artists like 2Chainz - She got a big booty so I call her big booty, it is men who actively pursue women with this new fetishized feature.

For the hardcore Metal fans this will become a benchmark, it will reinforce and reaffirm their allegiance.Metal features interviews and archive from some of the most influential and respected musicians of the genre as well as commentators and fans.

9318 ::: Counterblast (1948) ::: drama ::: This film was not known as "Devil's Plot" until 1953, when distributor Herbert Bregstein acquired the USA theatre rights and changed the title from "Counterblast" to "Devil's Plot." The reason for the title change was to disguise the fact that this was the same movie that had already been sold to television,and was currently playing on British and American television as "Counterblast." A more apt changed title would have been "Cheater's Plot," since the title change was an obvious ploy to keep the theatre exhibitors and public from knowing this film could be seen for free at home. The story has Mervyn Johns as a Nazi doctor and escaped prisoner-of-war who goes to London. There, via the Nazi underground, he poses as an Australian bacteriologist, whom he has killed and taken his place, assigned to do some medical research.

9343 ::: O Fim de uma Era (2014) ::: drama ::: A joy for the eyes and ears, this high-point of the Brazilian trilogy Operation Sonia Silk. A dreamy making-of about the two other episodes and also a cinematographic essay (in picture, text, sound and music) about cinema and filmmaking and, above all, about love. 'What is this thing called love? This funny thing called love? Just who can solve its mystery? Why should it make a fool of me?' So goes the short, poetic synopsis provided by the filmmakers Bruno Safadi and Ricardo Pretti for this third part of their trilogy Operation Sonia Silk. In this 'operation', shot in three weeks, the directors each separately made one part (Harmonica's Howl and Rio Belongs to Us, both shown at IFFR 2012), and then this joint third part, which grew into a surprising high-point. A joy to watch and hear, a film that occasionally looks like a making-of, occasionally an essay and always as a homage to cinema and love in text, sound and vision: 'verbivocovisual', as Brazilian form poets call that.

9387 ::: Black Christmas (2006) ::: horror ::: In the 70's, the boy Billy is born with yellow skin due to a liver disease and his dysfunctional mother rejects him. Later he witnesses his mother and her lover killing his beloved father and burying him in the basement of their house, and he is locked in the attic alone along his childhood. When he is a teenager, he is sexually abused by his mother and she has a baby girl called Agnes. During Christmas, the deranged Billy escapes from his imprisonment, kills his mother and stepfather and blinds one eye of Agnes. He is declared insane and his sister is sent to an orphanage. In the present days, Billy escapes from the Clark Sanatorium to spend Christmas with his family. Meanwhile, his former house is the Delta Alpha Kappa sorority house in the campus of the Clement University, and the housemother and the sisters Kelli Presley, Dana, Lauren Hannon, Megan, Heather, Megan Helms, Melissa and Eve Agnew are preparing the house for Christmas party in a stormy night while Clair Crosby is in her room writing a card to bury the hatchet with her sister. When three sisters vanish, the others receive weird phone calls and believe something is wrong, but they find that they are trapped in the location. The movie tells the story about Billy, a young boy who was abused by his mother as a child. While his mother was cheating on Billy's father, she eventually killed his father and kept Billy in the attic - for good, while she was with her lover and starting a "new" family. As Billy's mother fell pregnant with a daughter and treated her with love, which Billy had never experienced with his mother, Billy came out of the attic after years and brutally murdered his mother and her lover. Cut to present day, a group of eight sorority sisters consisting of Kelli, Dana, Lauren, Megan, Claire, Heather, Megan and Melissa and their house mother, who now live in Billy's childhood home, find themselves being harassed by threatening and intimidating mystery phone-calls during Christmas Break and as one of the girls goes missing, the girls begin being murdered one by one by no other than Billy... Not all Christmas stories are full of cheer - take the disturbing childhood of Billy Lenz, for example. Born during Christmas, little Billy Lenz suffered from Jaundice because of a liver defect, and was unwanted by his cruel mother (who only saw the husband she'd come to despise when she looked at her son). While she let her true feelings be known to him with beatings and abuse, only his father showed him compassion like a parent should. But on Christmas Eve in 1975, his unfaithful mother gave him one of the most cruelest gifts of all, as she made five-year-old Billy observe his beloved father's brutal murder at her own hands and those of her lover with a claw hammer. Before burying him under the house, she locked Billy in the attic for good, to hold his silence of what he'd witnessed that night. His only contact from then on was when she came to punish him for making a noise or other such trivial nuisances, while she was with her lover and starting a "new" family. As Billy's mother fell pregnant with a daughter and treated her with love, which Billy had never experienced with his mother, Billy came out of the attic on Christmas Eve 1991, taking a rolling pin to his mother's head, and a pointed tree ornament to her lovers eye before leaving his sister as disfigured as he was by blinding her. Before he could finish the job police forced there way in and dragged him off to mental institution and his sister a foster home, whose eye sight was saved in one eye... but not the other. Cut to the present where a security guard has been monitoring Billy's progress since he came into his care, back in 1991. Knowing full well that during this time for fifteen years, Billy has made a break from this asylum, but never succeeding... until now. Far away, his childhood home is now a sorority house, where nine sisters and their house-mother are celebrating the holiday season together ...but tonight they're about to get a surprise visitor... and it's not Santa.

9435 ::: Tikkun (2002) ::: documentary ::: "If I saw someone else screaming like my mother, I would be sure that person was mentally disturbed, if it wasn't 100% authentic..." This is what Israel Meir says about his mother, Rabbanit Lea Kook, whose discourse, according to him, stems from absolutely authentic belief. The ultra orthodox community in general & its women in particular are extremely wary of media exposure. The film therefore provides a rare look into the lives of ultra orthodox women, their activities & their grasp of their identities. Tikkun portrays the phenomenon of the Rabbanit (the wife of a Rabbi) of Tiberius, Leah Kook, an orthodox leader followed by many Israeli women. This film is a vivid picture of the routines and customs of life in an ultra-orthodox household and introduces a very charismatic,yet highly controversial main character. Rabbanit Kook, a staunch believer in a prophecy the world refuses to hear, such an extrovert enthusiast that the filmmaker documented her intensively for two entire years. As the maker of the film disguised herself and became one of the members of the house she could explore the backyard of the scene. The surprising cooperation demonstrated by the rabbanit in making this film, and her agreement to such intimate exposure of her physical & spiritual world for two years were a form of "Tikkun" for her. By watching the Rabanit from almost no distance at all, one could reach a conclusion to the controversial attitude of the Israeli society towards Lea Kook: is she genuine or a fraud?

9444 ::: A Taste of Freedom (1991) ::: documentary ::: It was the beginning of spring in 1990. And it was the dawning of a new era, a time of burgeoning change which could not be stopped in a country freshly awoken by perestroika. Although Communist leadership was still clinging to its stranglehold on the country's fate, the people wanted otherwise. The people wanted to revoke the sixth section of the Constitution, which consolidated the Communist Party's monopoly on power. At the heart of the film is a young family of journalists -Sasha Politkovsky, his wife Anna, their children, and even their dog. Sasha was a prominent TV journalist who was the head anchor on "The View" (the most topical and least censored TV show of the time). Anna was destined to become a journalist of truly international fame, proving her courage, and her journalistic integrity, during her coverage of the Chechnyan conflict. Journalism is a profession which is most keenly involved in the political life of a nation. By 1990, perestroika had begun to change the Soviet Union, letting people get a taste of freedom, like a gulp of fresh air. But it was no longer enough for most people to have this small measure of Gorbachev's reforms. People wanted to live in a country free from communism. The film is a unique glimpse into a time which is already fading from people's memories, a time of amazing change and urgency as Russia took its first steps after the fall of a 75-year old totalitarian regime. Russian with English narration. 46 minutes, 1991 The Russian Story profiles Anatoly Rybakov, a best-selling Russian novelist. His personal life follows Russia in the XXth century, a country destroyed in Stalinist purges and in the battlefields of World War II. With Perestroika the calamities seem to have ended. Or have they? The film is structured around three major themes: Stalinist purges and the Second World War, the Holocaust and the persecution of Jews in the Soviet Union, and the destiny and future of Russia. In The Children of the Arbat, first published in 1987 at the outset of Perestroika, Rybakov examines the enormous human cost the Soviet Union paid in the XXth century. The book became a symbol for freedom and openness and made possible a public debate about Stalinist crimes. Heavy Sand talks about the horrors of the Holocaust, perpetrated by the Nazis in the Soviet Union. It opened a public debate about the Jewish question in a thoroughly anti-Semitic Soviet State. It broke the taboo for the first time mentioning the historic figure of 6 million Jews, who perished in the Holocaust. In The Memoirs Rybakov draws conclusions from his life in the Soviet Union making the sad point that human life has lost its value in today's Russia. Yet, after decades of persecution and stagnation, life goes on. Will Russia resurrect itself from the ashes of the Stalinist state? Will the new generation build a new life? Rybakov poses these questions as a great writer who cares for his country and his people. Russian with English Subtitles. 52 minutes, 2006

No longer seven strangers, Real Worlders Trishelle, Steven, Brynn, Irulan, Frank, Alton and Arissa have some serious history together. Even after The Real World: Las Vegas ended in 2002, they kept in touch while battling it out on such Real World/Road Rules Challenge shows as The Inferno, Battle of the Sexes and The Gauntlet. But their relationships are sure to change when they are reunited at The Palms five years after they first met. New friendships will bloom and old feelings will surface. And there will definitely be drama. Loads and loads of drama. But are there hot tub hookups, heartbreaks and catfights in store or has the cast moved past all that nonsense? All bets are off because absolutely anything can happen when these former Real World roommates are thrown together again! From topless bars to bottomless drinks, Las Vegas has it all. During the drama-packed twelfth season, The Real Worlders rolled the dice and took advantage of everything the city had to offer. But the best stuff happened inside the The Real World suite, where sizzling romances heated up between Steven and Trishelle and Alton and Irulan.

But after things cooled down, Brynn was pissed about all the head games that were being played, threw a fork at Steven and was almost kicked out of the suite. But it was Trishelle's pregnancy scare that really stirred things up and brought The Real Worlders back to reality. So it wasn't all fun and games in Sin City. In addition to all of that drama upstairs in their home base at The Palms, the casino/resort was also where all of the roomies worked.

9734 ::: Silky waves of a friend's sea (2017) ::: drama ::: This film encompasses a desire to share a realistic, yet simultaneously metaphorical, story that allows us to discuss the relationship between the individual and cultural identity in a world where identity formation has become increasingly complex. With this intention, the film also portrays the multi-ethnic suburbs of Rome in present-day Italy, often regarded as the 'land of immigration,' due to its high population of immigrant residents. True events and stories regarding western immigration have driven us to address this issue in a dramatic, yet ironic, manner. The gradual acceptance of the need to allow asylum to 'political refugees' by the West, has also been accompanied by an increase in the demonization of all who wish to enter the West with hopes of improving their quality of life. Those who, nowadays, are labeled as 'bogus refugees' or 'illegal immigrants,' have not only become the target for short-sighted policies on immigration, but also, victims of deceitful human traffickers. Policies regulating immigration in the West, often based on points systems that evaluate the 'desirability' or 'usefulness' of those requesting transfer, are generally function only for the profit of the host country while these requirements may be entirely ignored for many immigrants whose countries of origin don't qualify as high-risk zones. The film, inspired by true events, allows us to address this delicate issue in a dramatic, yet humorous way.

This is the story of how, why and where it went wrong. The Tokyo Trial - the International Military Tribunal for the Far East - had been convened in 1946 to prosecute the leaders of the Empire of Japan for war crimes. It was to be the Nuremberg trial of the Far East. This is the story of why, how and where it went wrong. After two and half years, only 7 out of the 11 judges agreed with the final verdict. For Europeans, WWII ended on 8th May 1945; its horror had been dominated by the Shoah. Seen from Asia, war ended on Septe.2; its horror dominated by a diehard military strategy which invented the Kamikazes, forbade their troops to surrender and paved the way to the slaughter of civilians, until the Americans dropped two atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

In the Hollywood Squares half, the celebrities, seated in squares in a tic-tac-toe arrangement, would give their answers to questions on various subjects. The contestants would then have to guess whether or not a celebrity's answer was right. Contestants guessing correctly would gain control of the square. Gaining control of three squares in a row would win the game. "Match Game/Hollywood Squares Hour" married elements from the two classic game shows in a star-studded one-hour format. Rayburn hosted the "Match Game" segment, while Bauman, best known for his stint on "Sha Na Na," presided over "Hollywood Squares." Two new contestants played "Match Game," where the format was similar to the 1973-1982 run...a funny fill-in-the-blank statement is read. It was up to the contestants to try to match the five celebrities and co-host Bauman. One point was scored for each match; three rounds were played, with celebrities matching in earlier rounds sitting out the later rounds. The high-scorer after three rounds (or after a tie-breaker, if necessary), advanced to the "Hollywood Squares" version to meet the returning champion. Two more celebrities were introduced and Rayburn took his seat in the "Hollywood Squares" panel. "Hollywood Squares" was played just like the classic NBC game show of tic-tac-toe and celebrity bluffs, with these exceptions: each contestants' mark was worth $25; an incorrect judgement in agreeing or disagreeing with a celebrity always meant the opponent claimed the box, even if it meant the game (in the original format, the contestant had to earn wins himself), and the first game was worth $100, with each subsequent game worth $100 more than the previous one. The contestant in the lead when an undefined time limit expired was champion and went on to play "Super Match." As before, Rayburn read a simple fill-in-the-blank phrase (e.g., "Chicken *blank*"), and the contestant called on up to three celebrities to provide suggested answers. The contestant could then choose one on them or reject them all and give their own answer. Matching the most popular response was worth $1,000, with lesser answers worth $500 and $250; not matching any of the given answers still netted the contestant $100. In the "Head-to-Head Match," played immediately afterward, the contestant chose one of the eight celebrities (or Bauman), each of whom had a concealed multiplier in front of him/her. Four of the multipliers were 10s, four were 20s and one was a 30, meaning a possible jackpot of $30,000. One more fill-in-the-blank statement, with an exact match required, was read. If both the contestant and celebrity matched, they won whatever they were playing for. At the end of the show, the celebrity having the 30 multiplier was announced.

Take a hillbilly family and transplant them to the Babylon of pop culture - Hollywood, California. Dub figured his people - the hillbillies - would come off looking pretty savvy. He found the perfect family, the Griffeys, not far from his own hometown.

Next thing he knew, the show was canceled before it had even been made. The Griffeys (all 7 of them) ended up with nothing. The True Adventures of the Real Beverly Hillbillies picks up where that story leaves off, as Dub takes the Griffeys on a cross-country trip in a 40-foot motor home all the way to Hollywood.

Though her girls are trapped in a world on the verge of collapse and social restrictions they nonetheless try to put aside their fair share of triumph. One of them shows an insight into history and instinct for the future that only a young mind can devise.  The moment the girl steps out of the line is arrested through conceptualization. This simple act suspends previous mythical semantics. The gesture is both a performance and a historic intervention. By means of reappropiating the grace and dignity of Greek kinetic female statues her video re-enacts one of the famous postures of Athena- the gracious bending over her leg in order to tie her sandal. Like a sculptural construct her simple, realistic unpretentious gesture becomes  abstracted from her body and leads to a  suspension of previous mythical semantization. She opts out of the line. She is all strength and renewed power. She allows herself a moment of respite. Her gesture is no longer feminine but feminist. Not only political but also aesthetically charged.

Little more than a perimeter fence and a some wartime 'nissen huts' now remain of what was once the location for a base that barracked hundreds of American soldiers, ammo dumps and supplies. Presenter Jules Hudson said: "From the sea bed off the coast of Ireland we have gathered images of ships and submarines that have lain lost and caught in a moment of time for over 70 years. They help tell the story of the battle and the men of all sides who fought it, and in doing so reminds us and younger generations of a titanic struggle that we should never forget". "The Battle of the Atlantic was the longest campaign of the war. Without the endeavour of its prosecution, and the success of its outcome, it remains doubtful that the allied cause could ever have continued. Certainly the liberation of Europe would have taken a very different form, if it happened at all. For me, it has been an enormous privilege to play a part in adding to the commemoration of a campaign that has fascinated me since I was a boy."

As the music industry has exploded over the past few decades and the ability to "move units" has become the defining calculus of the business, it's an incredibly emotional experience to see a band who does it because they have to, because their lives depend on it, and because they love it. There are hundreds of such bands criss-crossing the country at any given moment. This is a film about one of them-a band on the edge of greatness, working to break through. In a happy bit of rock kismet, "Dreaming in America's" cameras started rolling just as Lucero was breaking from its indie rock past and considering the treacherous leap to a major label deal unlike anything seen by the industry before. At that point, the band was between labels and, though it had sold north of 20,000 records, lead singer/ songwriter Ben Nichols and the boys had not earned a single cent through royalties. Inspired by films like D.A Pennebaker's classic look at the enigmatic genius of Bob Dylan, "Don't Look Back," Jem Cohen's Fugazi documentary, "Instrument," and, more recently, "I Am Trying to Break Your Heart," the highly acclaimed Wilco movie by Sam Jones, "Dreaming in America" chronicles Lucero's seemingly endless travels-and the 250 shows a year they play. The film also covers the recording of their new album "Nobody's Darlings" in a country barn with super producer Jim Dickinson, and their battle with the music industry. All in the name of selling their songs without selling out. At a particularly poignant moment in the movie, Lucero's music is described as "a cross between Bruce Springsteen, Kurt Cobain, and Willie Nelson." In "Dreaming in America," find out if the music industry, and the world at large, will still make room for such a sound.

10694 ::: My shadow is a word writing itself across time (2017) ::: drama ::: The fear of internment of Muslim Americans is very palpable and real given the history of Japanese Americans in the US. This fear prompted me to visit Manzanar, CA, one of ten Japanese American concentration camps. Upon encountering the landscape I was reminded of Afghanistan--the mountains against the open blue sky, the dry earth, but also the landscape of forgetting. Whether it is the incarceration of Japanese Americans or the US's longest war in Afghanistan, injustices are made invisible, normalized and forgotten. Manzanar has been the site of multiple oppressions. In 1863 the US military forcibly relocated 1,000 Paiute Indians to make way for farmers and ranchers, and in 1929 ranchers and miners were forced to relocate when the City of Los Angeles purchased the water rights to the area. Standing in Manzanar meant standing at the intersection of these histories of aggression. It meant confronting the grief, anger, and betrayal embedded in the land beneath our feet. What is denied does not disappear; what is buried must surface. What would it take--and what would it mean--for the U.S. to face its shadows? Tracing my own shadow with the searching words of Afghan American poet, Sahar Muradi, I began to explore this question.

10709 ::: My Heart Is My Witness (1998) ::: documentary ::: MY HEART IS MY WITNESS, by renowed French-Canadian filmmaker, Louise Carré, investigates the status of women in Islam through interviews with men and women from Mali, Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia. Though often caricatured in the Western media as a homogenous group of veiled subordinates, this documentary shows the diversity of Muslim women, informed by both religion and culture. In Mali, women speak of the comfort afforded by their religion, while at the same time recognizing that Islam is abused by men to thwart women's development. Though women maintain important roles in the economy and educational system, the intersection of religion and local culture facilitates their subservience within the polygamous society. In Morocco, while some put their faith and conviction in Islam and its proscriptions, others believe that only education and struggle can help women. This sentiment, that "Women's rights are never given, they are always fought for," is echoed by women from Algeria and Tunisia. Punctuated by reports of violence against women as reported in letters written by an Algerian woman, this moving and stirring exploration of women's rights and restrictions in Northern Africa and the Arabic peninsula helps us understand these women's lives, struggles and dreams.

We see how, at the age of 60, he has become a cult musician in South America, Russia and Japan and is increasingly recognised internationally as a visual artist. This documentary explores Verdult's multidisciplinary, international art practice. We see Verdult at work in his studios in Bergeijk (The Netherlands) and Calanda (Spain) and on tour in Peru, Colombia and Argentina.

10933 ::: My Hero's Shadow (2018) ::: documentary ::: Much of the world only knows Shane Stant as a villain. He swung the baton that struck Nancy Kerrigan in 1994. This event would change the face of figure skating forever. We take a journey through the eyes of his sister, Maile; who only knew him for his compassion, inspiration and unconditional love - her hero. Maile Stant was only 3 years old when the attack happened and only knows the person her brother became after this event. Their connection is deep and consummate, but Maile has never asked Shane about who he was before 1994 and what took place that day at Cobo Arena - until now. This is a story about judgment and perspective. Often we see and portray people one-dimensionally as either "good" or "bad." It's convenient and efficient to quickly assign roles of "victim," "villain" or "hero." In this documentary, with a new perspective and by witnessing this loving relationship, we humanize someone that the world had long ago deemed simply a "villain." To see Shane's positive influence on his sister (raising her from the age of 6) and his transformation after the 1994 Nancy Kerrigan attack, is to know that he is more than his worst act. Through their story we gain insight into our own lives and our own judgments, as we are reminded that we are all, at different moments, to different people - victims, villains and heroes.

10936 ::: 100 Films and a Funeral (2007) ::: documentary ::: This documentary covers the life and death of London-based Polygram Filmed Entertainment, responsible for such noted hit films of the 1990s as _Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994)_ (qv) and _The Usual Suspects (1995)_ (qv). Headed by 'Michael Kuhn (I)' (qv), the approach was to copy the record industry format of sponsoring several labels producing distinct type of entertainment with their own talent. Kuhn was a hands-off, understanding that it was those in the film industry who new how to make the films. Notable successes led to ever greater expansion but two events led to the studio's ultimate demise. The first was a change of leadership at the parent company Philips where a new CEO was not supportive of the business (which he said was not a business, but a gamble). The second was their attempt to establish themselves in Hollywood where the risks of failure grew exponentially. The entire entertainment division was eventually sold to the Canadian liquor giant Seagram's and the film division sold by them to Universal. Inspired by Michael Kuhn's memoir of the same title, this feature documentary by Michael McNamara chronicles the rise and fall of the company that brought us "Four Weddings and a Funeral," "The Usual Suspects" and "Trainspotting."

The trainer, psychologist Antonia Arboleda-Hahnemann, works together with the participants for the cause of the uncomfortable feeling between takeoff and landing. "Flying Relaxed - Overcoming the Fear of Flying" views the flight to Hamburg from three perspectives: from the cabin, from the technology, and from air traffic control. Offstage - What Really Happens between Check-In and Disembarking The audience receives detailed information from the staff in the tower about the procedure between tower and pilot before clearance for takeoff. They are taken behind the technical scenes of flying: the strange and abrupt noises before and during the flight: PilotsEYE.tv shows the actual source of those noises. "A familiar, yet disconcerting sound - combined with the corresponding image - loses its terrifying nature," explains Captain Hansjochen Hoffmann. How does a plane fly and how to deal with turbulence? Hansjochen Hoffmann outlines the credentials of the aviation technology: how does an airplane fly, what happens if a propulsion unit breaks down, why is it necessary to avoid thunderstorms, and is lightning dangerous? For each phase before and during the flight, psychologist Arboleda-Hahnemann demonstrates effective techniques such as breathing, visualisation and self-motivation. This helps to overcome and control fear and insecurity. Relaxing Above the Clouds All 12 participants were able to reduce their fear of flying during the workshop. Of course the fear did not vanish completely after two days, however they could handle it in a much better way than before. One participant felt completely cured. "We have been producing PilotsEYE.tv documentations about flying for the past five years. It was just a matter of time before publishing this PilotsEYE.tv special about how to handle the fear of flying and to get on board stress-free", summarizes producer Thomas Aigner. The theoretical part of the workshop is complemented with material from previous PilotsEYE.tv episodes, where the audience sits right behind the pilot in the cockpit and witnesses, first-hand, the flights to beautiful destinations such as the North Pole or the Alps.

11254 ::: Uno scampolo di paradiso (2008) ::: documentary ::: Settimo Torinese. An old building surveyor talks about the houses of the first immigrants, who came from the Veneto and wanted a detached house, and the apartment complexes of the immigrants of the 1960s, who came from southern Italy with their cardboard suitcases. Even the old parish priest talks about the transformations in the city, the hopes of the young people, his astonishment at a world he no longer recognizes. Story leads to story: from the story of the engineer who built one of Europe's largest purification plants to the infinite stories of yesterday and today that intermingle in one of the many suburbs. "I have always lived in the suburbs. When I was small I went to a school in prefabricated apartments, the immigrants lived in houses that were in ruins and the traffic was congested. Over the past twenty years, thousands of apartments have been built, instead of the old factories there are museums and media libraries. The main street has become the thoroughfare of thousands of people, the new neighborhoods don't look so run-down anymore, the people say hello to one another, they chat. Maybe we have cut a scrap of paradise for ourselves in this city." A town like Settimo had everything is needed to become one suburb to put to fire and the sword. But here things turned out to be different. Why? An elderly surveyor, one of those who actually built the Italy of today, tells his houses. Those for the first immigrants coming from Veneto ( the region of Venice): they wanted their own detached house and so they built it by themselves during the week-end. The buildings for the immigration wave during the sixties, mostly composed by people coming from the south with their cardboard suitcases. The surveyor's story is interlaced with the one of the old priest, born in 1910, who tells us about those immigrations that during the times have made the nowadays city: his youth's wishes and his contemporary fears, his amazement facing this world he has seen growing up, but that now he doesn't recognise anymore. Every story leads to another: the one of the engineer who built one of the biggest purification plant in Europe, right here in Settimo Torinese, and the one of the children he tries to explain the reason why we need it to. The Easter Monday at the Fluvial Park, born thanks to the fact that the engineer purifies the big river's waters...and then the brand new meeting point: the gym. Here we can find others stories: the nine-month pregnant Pilates teacher , the young farmer who raises one-hundreds and twenty cows in the very heart of the industrial suburb.

11490 ::: Tale of the Tape (2018) ::: documentary ::: Many may find it hard to believe, but there was a time when Hip Hop music wasn't flooding our airwaves and Hip Hop Artists weren't certified pop stars. This time, before rappers had enough clout to endorse presidential candidates and newscasters covered stories on the latest "bling," the foundation was laid for the art form through The Mixtape. As most recall, Hip Hop music began to make major commercial headway in the late 80's and early 90's. Long before the days of platinum and gold success, a rapper's worth was in the DJ's placement within his mixture. During the late 70's, before record labels even considered rap music a legitimate art form, Hip Hop's fathers, Grandmaster Flash, Kool Herc, and Africa Bambataa were recording their performances and customizing music mixes for their loyal New York fanbase- not only to make financial ends meet, but to also lay the groundwork for the birth of hip hop as a street based culture. Ultimately, it would be the growing popularity and increased necessity of The Mixtapes created by DJ's that would serve as the lifeline to Hip Hop, as it struggled to be accepted into the mainstream. This documentary will take an unabashed look at the role The Mixtape played during the growth of Hip Hop music from the 1970's to now, revealing how The Mixtape has served as a force to catapult the art form of Hip Hop, as well as the careers of the greatest lyricists. Through telling interviews with mixtape legends, artist and industry insiders, the massive impact of The Mixtape subculture will be unveiled. With a stunning musical score and imposing cinematic depiction, this documentary will prove to be the most insightful and thought provoking account of the historic importance and present day relevance of The Mixtape.

11504 ::: I'm Fine, Thanks (2012) ::: documentary ::: In a word, "I'm Fine, Thanks" is a movie about complacency, or why so many settle for mediocrity in their everyday life at the expense of a greater passion. It's a collection of stories on the choices we make and the paths we ultimately decide to follow. And - most importantly - whether or not that path is truly connected to who we are as individuals. First-time director and Wilmington native Grant Peelle narrates the film from the perspective of a fledgling filmmaker acting on his long-held passion to make movies. Together with four other crew members and a trusty van, Peelle takes the audience on a 42 day, 10,000 mile road trip to capture stories of complacency and triumph from all across the country. "For 15 years I had placed my dreams on hold, choosing to create a 'responsible' life instead of chasing my dream to be a filmmaker. This movie is my stand against complacency. It is a dream come true," said Peelle. The film was financed through a record-setting fund raising campaign on Kickstarter, the popular crowd-funding platform. The crew raised $114,000 through the support of more than 4,400 backers - more than any documentary in Kickstarter history. The film opened to sold-out crowds in Portland, New York and Los Angeles in July and will begin appearing at film festivals internationally this fall. "It was obvious from the start that this film carries a message that resonates with thousands and thousands of people," Peelle said. Told through a collection of intimate, hilarious and at-times heartbreaking stories from a cross section of America, I'm Fine, Thanks is a "coming of age" movie for the already "of age." It's a rally cry for personal empowerment and a wake-up call to anyone who is driving through life asleep at the wheel.

11507 ::: Waiting for the God (????) ::: drama ::: The film "Waiting for the God" transcends geographic and ethnic boundaries and is cosmopolitan in nature. The portrait of daily life painted in the film is a dismal one. It is repetitive and stagnant. It lacks meaning and purpose and entails perpetual suffering. The solution (which none of the characters take) would seem to be action and choice despite the ever-presence of uncertainty, and an awareness of one's surroundings and past actions. As one character says, "habit is a great deadener" - our actions should stem from conscious choice rather than apathy. Vladimir (the protagonist) wonders towards the end of the film whether or not he is even awake. "Waiting for the God" has a unique cinematic quality, combining traditions of theatrical staging with meticulous cinematography and attention to every detail in lighting, composition and navigating a camera through the story line. The film is shot in a ruined old Italian city completely abandoned by its citizens many years ago. It is one of the most amazing places on the planet and is under the supervision of UNESCO. The look of the film presents a unique balance of phantasmagorical landscapes and a sublime play of four lead actors whose presence and acting merge with the landscape. WAITING FOR THE GOD eclipses geographic and ethnic boundaries and is cosmopolitan in nature. It calls to the hearts and minds of everyone because it raises the core questions of the human mind Who are we? Where are going? Where are we from?

The film draws on intimate interviews, archival footage and rare old home movies and photographs unearthed in the making of the film to present an engaging and rich story covering nearly 30 years of lowriding from the 1950s to early 1980s. The story begins with the advent of social or "jacket" clubs in the early 1950s, when young Chicanos and Chicanas were organizing dances and community events while developing a collective identity. As jacket club members with cars began to modify them, a parallel movement was occurring in neighboring Tijuana, Mexico, and a distinct aesthetic emerged - cars built to be slow and low to the ground. Inspired by the organization and creativity of the era, the next generation of lowriders in the 1960s formed car clubs and became active in the larger Chicano Movement, including the land take-over of San Diego's historic Chicano Park. In the late 1960s, lowriders affirmed their identity by adapting old airplane hydraulic parts to make their cars hop and evading law enforcement regulations; and lowriding expressions expanded as women formed their own car clubs. Police surveillance and media hysteria led to the eventual outlawing of cruising, bringing to an end one of lowriding's most dynamic eras. But recently the old past time of cruising has been revived again with hundreds of car club members assembling weekly to express their pride in their cars and culture. Everything Comes from the Streets celebrates a deep form of cultural expression, reflecting a long history of struggle and affirmation rooted in the streets.

The filmmakers also flew without their birds to spots where the birds they did not or could not tame arrived or nested or left at certain times of the year. Filming was held up for hours, days, or months when the birds were sick, the weather did not cooperate, the birds flew away and eluded their handlers, or the ultralights crashed (9 times during the filming of "Winged Migration").

When the mystery begins to unravel, new relationships are threatened as he struggles to protect his secret identity and solve a difficult case. The latest home invasion robbery in the Poplar Point neighborhood of Dillingham, Washington is the sixth in two months, this one the first that has left a resident, in this case Jim Donahoe, in the hospital, it uncertain how he will make it out if he does at all. As such, Mayor Laurel Danielson is coming down hard on police Sergeant Frank Milano for results in the case, the mayor who is currently facing reelection and falling in the polls against her primary rival, Gil McNamara. McNamara is largely running on a "safety" platform, safety which Danielson cannot claim, especially as Poplar Point is where she herself lives. With who has been the lead investigator retiring, Milano has both a senior position within the department to fill as well as the lead investigator position of what has now become the department's number one priority case, Poplar Point. Although not the best detective on the force if only going on case success, Mike Logan, who has no desire to get the senior department position, does campaign hard to get the lead for Poplar Point. Against the odds, Milano does appoint Mike the lead for Poplar Point based solely on Mike's idea stemming from the mayor's off the record, off the cuff remark that her nanny could solve the case faster than the police: that the lead go undercover in the neighborhood as a live-in nanny, or in Mike's case a "manny", which he is able to do with the help of an employment agency who has in the past supported the police in such a manner. Mike gets a job working for the Bannermans, husband and wife lawyers Kevin and Lizzie, looking after their two adolescent children Lucas and Ava, as the Bannermans have recently fired their last nanny, a young woman named Cookie. Mike believes the home invasion robberies are inside jobs and as such tries to get the confidence of especially the other neighborhood nannies as unofficial eyes and ears. In doing so, Mike makes a special connection with a young nanny, Jessie White, who enjoys playing amateur sleuth along with him. As Mike tries to make the connections between the players in the neighborhood who may have something to do with the home invasions, Mike, a confirmed bachelor in all its stereotype, still has to be a nanny, a job which he has no personal skills to be able to do and in this case which becomes all the more important in being a role model for both children, especially Lucas who is going through his own problems with bullies at school.

11688 ::: A Jihad for Love (2007) ::: documentary ::: n a time, when Islam is under tremendous attack-from within and without-'A Jihadfor Love' is a daring documentary-filmed in twelve countries and nine languages. Muslim gay filmmaker Parvez Sharma has gone where the silence is strongest, filming with great risk in nations where government permission to make this film was not an option. A Jihad for Love is the first-ever feature-length documentary to explore the complex global intersections of Islam and homosexuality. With unprecedented access and depth, Sharma brings to light the hidden lives of gay and lesbian Muslims from countries like Iran, Pakistan, Egypt, Turkey, France, India, and South Africa. The majority of gay and lesbian Muslims must travel a lonely and often dangerous road. In many nations with a Muslim majority, laws based on Quranic interpretations are enforced by authorities to monitor, entrap, imprison, torture and even execute homosexuals. Even for those who migrate to Europe or North America and adopt Western personae of "gay," the relative freedoms of new homelands are mitigated by persistent racial profiling and intensified state surveillance after the terrorist attacks in New York, London and Madrid. As a result, many gay and lesbian Muslims end up renouncing their religion. But the real-life characters of A Jihad for Love aren't willing to abandon a faith they cherish despite its flaws. Instead, they struggle to reconcile their ardent belief with the innate reality of their being. The international chorus of gay and lesbian Muslims brought together by A Jihad for Love doesn't seek to vilify or reject Islam, but rather negotiate a new relationship to it. In doing so, the film's extraordinary characters point the way for all Muslims to move beyond the hostile, war-torn present, toward a more hopeful future. As one can imagine, it was a difficult decision for the subjects to participate in the film due to the violence they could face. However, those who have come forward to tell their stories feel this film is too important for 1.4 billion Muslims and non-Muslims around the world for them to say no. They are willing to take the risk in their quest to lay equal claim to their profoundly held faith. "A Jihad for Love' is produced by Sandi DuBowski (Director of Trembling Before G-d) in association with ZZDF-Arte Channel 4, and LOGO.

Their main goal is to lose their collective virginity. In the process, they embark on games of sexual innuendo with their female classmates, as witnessed by the activities of Billy, Tommy and Pee Wee in their secret surveillance. Pee Wee is the most desperate, that desperation which gets him into one predicament after another, especially as he is the butt of many a prank. A side issue for Tim, basically a good guy, is dealing with his learned racism, which comes to the surface with the arrival to their school of new student, Jewish Brian Schwartz. The sexual pursuits at the school are not limited to the student body as new boys Phys Ed coach, Roy Brackett, has a mutual attraction with cheer-leading coach, Miss Lynn Honeywell, who doesn't want to go all the way; Coach Brackett's goal is to find out why Coach Warren has nicknamed Miss Honeywell "Lassie". All these goings-on offend the sensibilities of female Phys Ed coach, Miss Beulah Balbricker, who takes it upon herself to maintain the moral standards of the school. The boys' mission seems to be stalled, so Mickey, whose brother Ted is the local sheriff, suggests they go to Porky's, a bar and unofficial brothel in neighboring Wallacetown in the middle of the Everglades, to lose their virginity. Porky's is owned by the violent Porky, whose actions are supported by his sheriff brother. The boys' experience at Porky's leads to a continuing feud between the boys and Porky and his posse, the boys' collective anger fueled by Mickey. They will learn that they may not be able to beat Porky with their fists, but may be able to do so with a little ingenuity, which may hurt Porky more in the long run. We follow a bunch of high school kids through a period in their puberty. Their lives mainly consist of watching the girls in the shower and making life a living hell for their teachers and for each other. The movie is packed with practical jokes and eccentric characters, like Pee Wee with the short dick (which he measures every morning) who met up for sex with the school "mattress" Wendy already wearing a rubber, or the fat teaching bitch Beulah Balbricker who is determined on making life a living hell for the boys. The name "Porky's" is the name of a striptease bar the boys get thrown out of and humiliated later in the movie. They have their minds set on revenge, but that's not easy as the owner's brother is sheriff. Only by forgetting their internal differences can they defeat Porky and his gang. Porky's bar is the sleaziest dive imaginable, and the place where the boys in a small Florida town KNOW they will find action, underage or not. When they finally make it to Porky's the owner dumps them in the bay and the boys plot revenge. Every juvenile sexually related story you have ever heard is represented in the movie, including the famous, "Drill a hole in the wall of the girls' shower room" scene. The humor is mostly sexual, mostly juvenile, and mostly just a touch mean spirited, but just a touch. Many of the subplots relate to pranks the boys play on each other. The mother (and father) of all Teen Sex Gross Out comedies is set in the 1950's where there's only one thing on the male sex's mind. Well, sex to be correct. We have PEE WEE: the horny toad that is desperate to lose his virginity. TOMMY: the bad boy of the bunch. MEAT: tough jock whose nickname originates from his abnormally large body appendage. MICKEY: a wiseass redneck without a care in all the universe. BRIAN: the smart Jew. And TIM: the racist giving talents of his abusive father. Each one takes a trip to PORKY'S, it's the most popular strip joint in Florida. But when they try to get in, they're tricked and humiliated. Returning home, they vow revenge. Following crazy sex jokes like Ms. Balbrick's famous "Pecker Pull" incident, to the ultimate return fire on a strip club, PORKY'S is and will remain the grandest of all teenage comedies.

By coincidence Chouchou bumps into her cousin in the street, there. The cousin is male but is working at a bar called the Apocalypse, where he does an act as Vanessa. That night Chouchou goes with Vanessa to the bar; there are a couple of bouncers on the door, and as everyone kisses everyone else twice on each cheek, just getting past the door takes some time. There is also a customer (Stanislas de la Tour-Maubourg) hovering near the door, and he is evidently attracted to Chouchou. Chouchou starts work as a waitress in the club, and after some days, Stanislas comes in and approaches her. After some preliminaries, he takes her out for a meal, treating Chouchou as a girl. He is a perfect gentleman and very soon wants to take Chouchou to introduce her to his parents. Chouchou is a bit taken aback at this and consults Father Leon, but the kindly priest is not against it. So Chouchou goes with Stanislas to a seriously expensive hotel dining room where the parents are waiting to meet her. Stanislas has told his parents that Chouchou is herself a psychoanalyst, and Chouchou has to bluff her way out of it. Work at the club continues apace for Chouchou, but when she is back at the dcotor's consulting rooms, Gregoire turns up again, mad as ever. This time Doctor Milovavich is present; Gregoire is getting violent, so Chouchou knocks him out by hitting him with a large vase, that Milovavich told her earlier was of irreplaceable sentimental value. Chouchou now has to go on the run from Dr Milovavich because of the vase, and from Gregoire because of assaulting a policeman. Where and how will it all end?

11757 ::: The Forgotten City (2006) ::: documentary ::: The Forgotten City is a soul stirring documentary taking place in Buffalo, New York exploring race relations, segregation, crime, and politics. Through exclusive breathtaking footage and one-on-one interviews with many citizens and some of Buffalo's most influential leaders, The Forgotten City exposes the bitter truth about Buffalo and all inner cities. It challenges stereotypes, encourages change and shakes up the status quo. Buffalo was once a booming city; one of richest in the United States and is now a place where crime, racism and poverty plague a once great city. This film is a personal journey of two young filmmakers who forged an unlikely partnership following a 2001 murder; one a friend of the victim and the other a friend of the murderer. Instead of waging war, they embarked on a documentary film project that would take them into the heart of Buffalo's most dispossessed communities and crime ridden streets. The result of their exploration is a documentary film with a raw, hard-hitting, unblinking first-hand look at the way some of us really live in America. This film brings to light the racial turmoil and economic hardships that have become the lifestyle of so many living in Buffalo's inner city. The Forgotten City, however, is not simply a film about the problems that plague Buffalo's inner city; it can easily be the story of any American city and is a film that everyone should see.

11990 ::: The Islands Amid the World (2011) ::: short ::: When I started this project about 12 years ago my motivation was to examine what happens to a place when humans desert it. What happens with buildings after years of disuse? How does nature operate to reclaim its power? How would the world look after 50 years if humans neglected it? The place I chose is an abandoned military base on a couple of small islands outside Bronx, New York. In this first part of the project I have focused on the smaller island. Here the structure has been abandoned since the sixties. It is a strange place where time seems to have frozen. The place feels "sleepy" almost magical. It's a slow event that nature enacts. Where it slowly eats its way through the buildings with wind, water and greenery that winds around them and slowly breaks them. While spending time on the islands I often wondered what the structures would tell us if they could speak? What tales would its inmates, workers and soldiers have whispered? What were they listening to on the radio and what were their rivals saying about them? I therefore made a sound design that mirrored what I thought they might have said and heard. I have layered a fictional Russian voice with real speeches from the Cold War and WW2. The purpose of this was to get the feeling of the rivalry between the super powers and also to recreate the mystic feeling of the island. This work is a play between opposites such as stills,video, wide shots, close ups, indoors, outdoors. It can be seen as well as "We" who look out or "We" who are trying to look in.

CERN, the scientific research establishment who conducted the experiment, has spent billions of dollars and decades trying to unlock the secret of the Higgs Boson, otherwise known as The God Particle. Everybody, from NASA to the European Space Agency, was overjoyed. But why the euphoria? Because it is the key to unlocking some of the mysteries of the universe. It helps us to understand the Big Bang and some believe we are even getting close to understanding the mind of God himself. We delve into the world of quantum physics and dark matter to seek answers to questions mankind has always been asking. One such question being "what is the meaning of life" which is the very driving force behind science itself. Will the answer be found in these latest discoveries of the Higgs Boson and the gravity wave, or are we simply replacing one religion with another? As half the world starved and populations rebelled against their governments, science spent billions chasing a theory. But surely, if there is a God, then they are all God's Particles. In this film, we show how all of this and more has in fact been known for centuries but science is only now catching up.

Host Walberg posed multiple choice questions to the contestants. Correct answers were worth cash, while an incorrect answer placed him/her at risk for elimination thusly: That contestant pulled a lever, activating a series of lighted circles; if the lighted circle stopped at a vulnerable contestant, a trap door opened beneath that player, eliminating him/her from further competition and causing them to lose all their winnings. The last contestant remaining was the show's champion, received their cash winnings (and those of eliminated opponents), and moved on to the bonus round, where they have the potential to win up to $100,000 (though most daily winners won between $5,000 and $10,000. Four contestants (as perfect strangers) start with $150, and one is randomly selected as the "Challenger," to start answering the questions. In Round 1, the challenger is shown 3 possible answers, and after host Walberg has read that question, the challenger must pass the question on to another opponent and is given 10 seconds to answer the question. If his/her opponent gets the question right, ten he/she gets accumulates more money, if he/she gets the question wrong, then the opponent loses all the money to the challenger whom he/she had challenged another player to answer, and is forced to play Russian Roulette depending on how many drop zones they had. When he/she had pulled the handle, if the contestant avoids the drop zone (in as maximum of 5), he/she is safe, but if the contestants lands on one of the drop zones, then that player was out of the game. In Round 2, 3 contestants remain, and each correct answer was worth $200, and every question had 4 possible answers. The two remaining players with the most amount of money get to go on to the third and final round where the contestant (with the most amount of money) had the privilege of answering the question (risk losing everything of what he/she has had) or passing the question on to his/her opponent in hopes he/she gets it wrong. Correct answers to questions are worth $250, and the contestant with the most amount of money at either the end of the game, or when a contestant is out of the game just before time running out wins and has a shot of winning, $10,000 just before $100,000. The winning contestant who eliminated the last 3 contestants from previous rounds got the chance to go onto the bonus round and winning a possible $100,000. In the first season of the bonus round, the contestant has 60 seconds to answer 5 questions, and after every 10 seconds, a new drop zone opens. If a contestant runs out of time or has given an wrong answer, the contestant will drop with whatever he/she has won to that point (when rewarding $500 for each correct answer). But a contestant can always pass if they don't know an answer to a question just yet, and when answering each question, they must shout out the phrase, "My Answer Is," before each and every answer to a question like that. During the second season of the bonus round, they underwent some changes and the rules are different than the first season. The contestant can still win $10,000 (before going for $100,000) by answering all 10 questions correctly in the 60 second time limit, and they didn't have to be prefaced with using the face, "My Answer Is," anymore, the contestant gets $300 for each correct answer and $10,000 for getting all 10.

The argument remains unresolved, so they decide to go on a quest around the world and find out for themselves. They travel to Bangladesh where genetically modified crops are used and developed outside the realm of mono cultures and big farms, to investigate what's what.

This way of storytelling makes a difficult topic identifiable, both for people who know something about GMOs and for those who have never heard about genetic modification.

McDonald, A. Nikitin; camera: A. Gershtein. "Cinema Paradiso Soviet style," The Province of Lost Film is about the magic and nostalgia of watching film collectively: in a movie house; a workers' club; or at night, on an improvised screen hung in the village square. Employees of the former distribution and exhibition network, projectionists, and viewers from central Russia reflect upon the unique and already bygone experience of the Soviet experiment of "cinefication," which sought to bring the screen to every corner of the Soviet Union. Thus, the film captures one of the lost opportunities of the socialist dream. Shot in the Summer of 2004 in the province of Ryazan, the film tells the story of post-Soviet Russia in a new key. It provides a unique insight into what viewers and creators took from cinema. The film is a weave of life stories and film clips. From the collective-farm classic of the Stalin era Cossacks of the Kuban to the hugely popular Indian film of 1955 The Vagabond, or the 1961 Soviet Technicolor extravaganza, The Amphibious Man, and archival footage of the process of cinefication itself, they all remind us of the immortal power of cinema and its place in the mind and heart of the individual.

"The behind-the-scenes footage will also entertain and educate the SPEED audience about my private and public sides." Since then however, Busch's career has taken a different turn. Plagued by well-documented incidents both on and off the track, he's been forced to re-evaluate his career and rebuild the momentum he once had. "It's that old game that I played when I was a kid out in the desert, we'd find a big dirt mound and it was called, 'King of the Hill,'" said Busch, in Kurt Busch The Outlaw. "And you stood up top and people tried to come up and grab your foot and yank you down. But when you're there, the view is great."

It's a story about growing up, growing apart, and eventually finding common ground. It's also about perception vs. reality, and how more often than not we make things much more difficult for ourselves than they need to be. In the film, the lead characters have conflicting perspectives on life: Alden is a recent convert to Judaism. He currently lives in Chicago, but is constantly on the move. Alden has major commitment issues. Kirby is a staunch Catholic, who uses his faith to justify his moral lapses. Kirby is in town from Baltimore, where he lives with his wife and kids. And Patrick still lives in his parents' house in Connecticut (which he purchased from them; they live in Maine.) A self-proclaimed Atheist, Patrick is also one of the only openly gay men in town. Patrick's parents, coincidentally, have major issues with the fact that he's gay (or so he thinks...). The story really centers on Patrick, whose life is becoming more and more complicated, especially around the holidays. Not only is he dealing with his parents' lack of acceptance for his lifestyle (or his own perception of their lack of his acceptance), but he is also trying to figure out where his relationship stands with his partner, Kevin. Should he stay with Kevin? Should he continue living in his parents' house? What does he want to do with his life? Patrick conveniently puts these issues on hold while he attempts to help his friends with their problems. Alden arrives a day before Christmas Eve. He is running from his longtime girlfriend who has just proposed to him. Kirby arrives the same day, but he's in town for his estranged father's funeral. Patrick and his friends spend the next forty-eight hours trying to relive the past. In doing so, they ultimately discover that the past isn't exactly as they remembered. They literally dig up old memories in the form of a time capsule, and with the help of a bottle of Patrick's uncle's wine, an old copy of TV Guide, and the effervescent music of Billy Ocean, the guys are transported back to the 1980s. But, the reality of the present is more powerful than any fond recollection of the past. Finding themselves stuck in the present, they must come to terms with who they are now, not only as friends, but also as adults. "Happy Holidays" is a story about perception, personal beliefs, and in the end, acceptance. It's funny, thought provoking, and moving, but also poignant, and at times, hilarious. The holidays will never be the same!

In one such place, however, the pair find themselves caught in the midst of a struggle that was ancient when Rome was built -- with two devoted enemies vying for total control. LC Film's dynamic vision of vampires vs. werewolves takes shape in the upcoming BLOOD DANCERS 2. The conflict, seen here through the eyes of a relatable "every man" married couple, will incorporate gory practical effects, sensuality, dark humor, and a genuine story of love and loyalty to breathe new life into the concept. Picking up with the vampire coven from BLOOD DANCERS, we find that another group of "night creatures" -- lycanthropes, this time -- also ply their trade of sex and seduction, but instead of keeping to the city, they do so along the forgotten roads with a sinister purpose. However, their adversarial relationship with the bloodsuckers inevitably comes to a gory confrontation, with mere mortals caught in the middle. Will these humans be prey for the werewolves? The vampires? Or is something different in store? Drawing inspiration from films like FROM DUSK TILL DAWN and FEAST, BLOOD DANCERS 2 promises the same kind of bloody good time and moments that will bring a laugh, but with enough meat in the story to set it apart and above.

12489 ::: Power to the People with Johan Norberg (2015) ::: documentary ::: The thirst for energy in developing countries will only grow as economic freedom spreads. People there see how we in the west live and refuse to be left behind. In Power to the People, by Swedish economist and author Johan Norberg explores the incredible challenge this demand presents to man- and woman-kind. As costs rise and concern for climate change increases, these questions loom large: How are we going to maintain our standard of living? How do we reduce our impact on the planet? And how will we get power to ALL the people? Norberg travels the world in Power to the People to peel back the layers of this global challenge, often questioning the conventional wisdom on what works and what doesn't. His journey starts in the Moroccan bazaars of Marrakech, which functioned fine for eons without modern conveniences, but where electric lights, computers, cell phones and credit card readers are now everywhere. Even more telling is Norberg's journey to a remote Berber village in the Sahara Desert. More than half the world still cooks its food over open flames but this is rapidly changing, including here, where women now cook on gas stoves, and some even have refrigerators. The revealing program examines global efforts to solve our energy dilemma-and how even the best of intentions sometimes result in unexpected consequences. For example, Germany's decision to abolish nuclear power and increase the use of renewable energy has sent retail prices soaring, among the highest in Europe. It also resulted in an actual increase in the use of lignite coal-burning plants as the Germans discover that it takes temporary dependence on energy from fossil fuels to build a new clean energy economy. Imposing tariffs on Chinese-made solar panels to protect the German solar industry also slowed things down. In the U.S., Power to the People explores the great debate in a country whose energy consumption is now only surpassed by China. He reveals, perhaps surprisingly, how cities like New York consume far less energy per capita than the rest of the country. The controversy over America's promising new energy source in hydro fracking is also examined, as is the folly of top-down government-imposed solutions. Witness the continued federal subsidies for corn ethanol, which have sent food prices soaring and not produced the promised a renewable energy return. Although daunting, the energy challenge can be met, Norberg believes-especially if governments step back from top-down imposed solutions. From a solar facility in Morocco to wind farms in England, a hydraulic fracking site in Pennsylvania, and a trucking company in Florida that is converting its fleet to natural gas, potential new sources and solutions abound. Coal, Oil, Natural Gas, Nuclear, Hydro, Biomass, Wind, and Solar are all in the mix and all come with their own problems. As Norberg finds, the world is overflowing with energy. The sun is shining, the world is turning, the wind is blowing, and water flows downhill. The only bottleneck when it comes to energy is our ability to safely convert, store and pay for it.

Digitally shot and edited, FINISTERRE evolved alongside the Saint Etienne album of the same name.

Historically, Sheriff Grant has taken over the high profile case of the day, solving it just before the election, which has largely led to his election time after time. This time, the case he has taken over, a series of car thefts, was previously led by Bill, who accuses the Sheriff of using his position for his own political gain. Meanwhile, Hannah Swensen, owner/operator of Hannah's Cookie Jar bakery/café and Bill's sister-in-law, is leading a committee to put together a cookbook as a fundraiser, the committee which decides which recipes make it in and which don't. Gary Koehler, who runs the local salvage yard, has submitted his deceased mother's thought to be lost but newly found famous "perfect" fudge cupcake recipe. A problem with the recipe as is is that Mrs. Koehler has listed an ingredient solely as a secret one, Hannah who is tasked with figuring out what it is based on her own previous consumption of the cupcakes. One evening when the committee is preparing the recipes for judgment at the community center, Sheriff Grant stops by to put up some campaign posters. Shortly thereafter, Hannah and her very pregnant sister/Bill's wife, Andrea Todd, find Sheriff Grant's dead body outside the center, this the fourth of four times in recent months that Hannah has found the murdered body in town. With Bill being caught on surveillance footage outside the center when he previously said he would be at home, he becomes the primary suspect in the Sheriff's murder. Detective Mike Kingston, one of the two men vying for Hannah's affections (the other being dentist Norman Rhodes), is leading the investigation for the Sheriff's department. Despite Mike's insistence that Hannah not get involved, she, with Norman's help, decides to figure out who killed Sheriff Grant, as she wants to ensure that her imminent niece/nephew has a father who is at home and not in jail. Hannah's attention turns in two directions: Nettie Grant, the Sheriff's widow, as rumors abound that the two had not had a happy marriage ever since the death of their son, then young adult Peter Grant, in a car accident several years earlier; and Paige Miller, the wife of Deputy Kevin Miller, who had open but quiet animosity toward the Sheriff, she who was at the center that evening. As usual, the closer that Hannah gets to the truth, the more her life could potentially be in danger. All the answers may be who is sitting behind the wheel of the black pickup truck that seems to be following her around town.

Low budget and in b&w, it's set in Greenwich Village, with what seems like a mostly improvised script. It begins as a late film noir crime tale involving a bank robbery where only one of a group of thieves escapes with his life, as well as $90,000 in loot. Injured and on the run, he hides in a local tour bus and is soon taken in by a group of bohemians who shoot him full of morphine to ease his pain and let him sleep it off on a mattress. Mason is the head beatnik. There's also the owner of both an upstairs coffeehouse and garret, where these beatniks hang out. They, in turn, bring the tourist trade in. Although the robbery is supposed to be the main focus of the plot, it quickly turns into more of a character study featuring these rebellious bon vivants and their odd lifestyle, which includes smoking and selling dope, mooching at art galleries, long conversations about all sorts of things and a beat shindig, shot Cinema Verite style in the director's actual apartment. Along the way, they do things like shower together at the home of an heiress and mostly plot ways to get the bank heist money away from Mason, who's too clean-cut to be one of them, but wins us over with his naturally arrogant charisma.

The film traces a week in these immigrants' lives, blurring the line between their characters' routines and their own. Every morning, Tarzan, Eddy Constantine and Edward G. Robinson seek work in Treichville in hopes of getting the 20 francs that a bowl of soup costs them. They perform menial jobs as dockers carrying sacks and handy labor shipping supplies to Europe. At night, they drink away their sorrows in bars while dreaming about their idealized lives as their "movie" alter-egos, alternatively as an FBI Agent, a womanizing bachelor, a successful boxer, and even able to stand up to the white colonialists that seduce away their women. These dream-like sequences are shot in a poetic mode. Each day is introduced by an interstitial voice of god omniscient narration from Jean Rouch, providing a universal thematic distance to the movie's events.

Robinson fondly looking back on his childhood in Niger and concluding that his life is worthy of his dreams.

Set in 1973 in St. Louis, Missouri, they have their own turn-of-the-century apartments not far from the Mississippi River and not far from a more nefarious neighborhood. Tomorrow will be Lester Sim's last day as a college professor, ending the decades he has taught the poetry of T.S. Eliot. An intense and confusing turning point in his life -- losing his job, his mother close to her death, Margaret threatening to leave him -- he is at the end of his rope. Actually it's not rope but a gun he's bought, though he has no knowledge how to use it and has no idea if it's to be used on himself or someone else. What ensues between Lester and Margaret is a war of two intellectual titans, their conflicts unleashed through a wide range of emotions, both comedic and dramatic.

Margaret, no longer willing to endure an incomplete, decades-old love affair of diminishing returns, she has set a new course. Whether she can she stick to it is another matter.

"Nectar! What joy is here?" and he drains the bottle. Here is an oddity, a snow-man with a jag.

12895 ::: "Pretty Messed Up" (2017) ::: short ::: Pretty Messed Up is a limited series of conceptual mash-ups, the brainchild of Dutch director Peet Gelderblom.

It's a modus operandi not unlike the irreverent artistic strategies of the Dadaists or that of surrealist collages. Most often though, mash-up videos settle for laughs. The videos of Peet Gelderblom take the mash-up into conceptual territory, fully using the form's potential as a tool for essayist critique and questioning. For that is what his mash-ups aim to accomplish: they don't deal in definitive answers like a lot of video essays (try to) do, but instead evoke questions by juxtaposing footage from very different registers.

Along with Gianni and Martha the entire little universe of a small football team is acting: each boy is protagonist of a story, carrying in the movie his own load of ambitions, expectations, hopes and delusions. The story runs through the last three months of the soccer championship season and, during that time, every character must face some inner fears, some inner demons: Christian (the best player) will remain paralyzed on a wheel-chair, Loris (the boss, the coolest) will be imprisoned and spend some days in jail, Anna (who betrays her sweet husband Daniele for Luke, the bastard one) will understand that to escape from responsibilities doesn't remove them... Even Martha - pushed by the sense of guilty toward her dead father (she doesn't want to disappoint his last wills) - and Gianni - who loves alcohol more than his dignity but is desperately seeking a kind of redemption - will have to deal with the very dark and intimate part of their souls: they will discover that, in life, when we you lose something perhaps you're winning something else. A simple, strong, honest movie painted with dark and bright lights that reflect the struggled souls of the characters: from the calm Italian hills to the chaotic skyscrapers of Los Angeles.

ViaCyte's trial is only the third ever in the US, and the sixth ever in the world to use embryonic stem cell therapy to cure a disease. Only a decade ago America was torn apart by a political and religious debate about the ethics of using human embryos for stem cell research. Already two years in production, The Human Trial brings to life the human realities of diabetes, which causes a death every seven seconds and will be the leading cause of death in the US by 2030. With exclusive access to the patients who will be the subjects of Phase I/II of the trial, the film illuminates the emotional, physical and financial costs of diabetes that is a $612 billion health expenditure worldwide. History is in the making. Humanity is waiting. The Human Trial tells the story.

13218 ::: Learn to Live the Talk! - Beyond Total Quality Management (1994) ::: short ::: The original Red Bead Experiment, inspired and used by Dr. W. Edwards Deming. There is a lot of management training hype being taught in companies and schools all over the world. What is important is to practice what is being taught. We must learn to live the way we talk. Practice what we preach! The name Red Bead is a metaphor for the problems that we experience every day in our life. The world is a never ending supply of problems. Each day, you get up in the morning to solve the problems of the day. Solve one problem and more problems appear. It is the way of the world. After World War II, Dr. W. Edwards Deming went to Japan help them recover from the devastation of the war. Japan's success is a fact in history. Even today, the Japanese economy is strong and one can make the case stronger in some ways than the USA and most of the world. In 1982, a teaching tool was created with Dr. Deming that he used in his seminars around the world to teach his famous 14 Obligations of Management. Dr. Deming called this training tool, The RED BEAD Experiment or Red bead Game. When you play the game, each player uses a special metal paddle to draw small red and white colored beads from a large bowl. Each draw of the paddle gets 50 beads. Some are white and some are red. The white beads symbolize the good things that we experience each day as we do our work and the red beads symbolize the problems or bad things that we experience. As each player draws their paddle full of beads each player receives a different mix of red and white beads. It's a random draw. There are many teaching examples as you play the game. One of the examples is that that our lives experience different things each day; some good and some bad. We as willing workers most of the time have no control over our experiences. We the willing worker did not make the company; our bosses did, and we should not be held responsible for most of the problems or mistakes. Yes, we can control about 4 out each 100 problems but not the other 96; as they are problems created by the system. If our bosses want us to do better work, they need to use specialists to ask us questions and then design improvements to the system to remove permanently the problems (red beads) that we find each day. Yelling by the bosses at the workers will not do any good. Actually yelling just makes the workers more quiet and shy and the names of the process problems will be hidden even more. So the workers have a very important role in assisting the bosses to improve. They know the names of the problems and our bosses should create a friendly work environment that make the workers feel free (not afraid) to speak up and share what they know. On and on the game is played and more and more management points are discussed. This is the parable of the RED BEADS as Dr. Deming calls it in his books.

13425 ::: Six Miles from Home (2017) ::: documentary ::: At ten o'clock on the morning of Sunday 4th June 1967, a British Midland Airways airliner made its approach to Manchester's Ringway Airport. For the seventy-nine passengers on board, this marked the end of their package holiday in Palma Majorca. For the pilots and crew it was the conclusion of another routine flight. Nine minutes later, the aircraft lay destroyed in the town centre of Stockport in Cheshire. On that Sunday morning, with little regard for their own safety, a handful of otherwise ordinary people attempted a brave rescue. The psychological effects on both the rescuers and the rescued were not simply confined to the hours and days following the crash, but their influence would remain with them, in some cases for the rest of their lives. The professionalism shown by the emergency services on the day and the care given by the medical teams throughout the following weeks and months helped many to come to terms with what they had experienced. The Stockport air disaster has been largely forgotten, yet remains one of the worst urban air crashes in British history.

13427 ::: La fille de Keltoum (2001) ::: drama ::: An extraordinary story of a young woman raised in Switzerland who travels back to Algeria, her birthplace, to meet and kill her natural mother, who abandoned her shortly after birth. Along the way, she is exposed to the brutality of desert life and, in particular, the abuses that men heap upon women in fundamentalist, third world countries. Birth, death and life in general, have little meaning as people struggle for survival. The scenery is stark but at the same time beautiful and the faces of the characters that she meet are marvelous. The film was made in Tunisia, as it does not cast a particularly good light on Algerian men and probably could not have gotten permission to be filmed in Algeria where Sharia is the law of the land.
13428 ::: Hyacinth (2014) ::: documentary ::: The 50th Anniversary for the long lost Jim Morrison film First Love is celebrated in the festival release of the documentary Hyacinth. Before becoming lead singer of The Doors, Jim Morrison studied film at the University of California, Los Angeles. It is now 50 years ago that Morrison created his only surviving directorial work starring his roommate Max Schwartz and friend Elizabeth Buckner. In 2002, with the obscure print still in his possession, Schwartz discusses life, love and the use of poetry and photography as a positive influence on the future of mankind. What is unique about the film is the viewer's ability to actually look through the eyes of Jim Morrison. Hyacinth provides links to a series of little known relationships and artistic considerations that produced a number of multi-faceted and multi-talented individuals, one of whom was James Douglas Morrison. Schwartz, The Mad Poet of San Francisco leads us around his studio while talking about his friendship with Morrison, the last day they plunged into a swimming pool in Bel Air ('the last innocent day of our lives') and the love of Schwartz' life Liz [Elizabeth Buckner] who dropped LSD with Morrison on his first acid trip opening his doors of perception. Morrison's daylight noir, First Love includes a simulated sex scene, phallic symbolism and a preoccupation with voyeurism which later manifest itself in his work and is distinctly present in this early document. Hyacinth comes to a climax with First Love shown in it's entirety. In the end Hyacinth is a true untold story, one that is more than meets the eye.

13430 ::: A Dear Old Grandma (1908) ::: short ::: The love of a sweet old lady for two little foundlings, whom she brings up with the same loving care she would have given to her own children. The first picture shows us the droll way she gains possession of her charges. One day, while watering the garden, she discovers the tiny tots under a large cabbage leaf, and from that time on never ceases in her care and devotion to the little strangers. Three years have elapsed, when the next scene opens, and the cabbage babies are now sturdy children, showing by their healthy looks and happy faces what a comfortable home they have found. Grandma (always planning some new pleasure) is taking the little ones for a jaunt to the seaside. They listen eagerly as she tells them some instructive little stories, among other things to be kind to the poor dumb animals, who are so dependent upon man for kindness. Finally we see them at the age of twenty, when Grandma, now in the sunset of life, is enjoying the reward of her kind act of so many years ago, as the dutiful children now tend and watch over her with the same loving care as she did over them in the years gone by. One day, while the old lady is out in the garden, she is suddenly stricken, and as the young people rush to her assistance, we see her pass peacefully away in their arms. The last picture shows her sorrowing children as they enter the cemetery to pay a loving tribute to her memory by placing upon her grave a quantity of beautiful flowers.

13432 ::: Födelsen (1979) ::: documentary ::: Before Gudrun Schyman became a controversial left wing politician she was an ordinary social worker. She lived in Skĺne together with the filmmaker Lars Westman and on June 8, 1978, she gave birth to a son, Dan, of Ystad Hospital. The film is about this event and is something as unique as a real-time birth. This means that we will be able to follow the whole process, since the prospective mother takes place in the hospital bed and begins to work with her pain until the moment she is born 55 minutes later. In film context, this is remarkable because you experience it as if you are actually there, present throughout your childbirth. In reality, of course, it took longer, as several clips in the film testify. But the remarkable is how this film gives the impression of following a course altogether, without embellishing, changing or interfering with time and space.

The sprawling railways are reaching the far-west, and somewhere along its way, in a small border town, the paths of four characters are going to cross and clash: a young woman looking for a fresh start, an outlaw on the run for a crime he (this time) didn't commit, a ruthless killer on the payroll of a railroad tycoon, and a mysterious man with no name who plays a couple of sad chords on a harmonica and a few cadences on his revolver. The beautiful Jill McBain, married in New Orleans a month ago, arrives at her new husband's place to find him and his children dead. Also new to the area, a man known only as Harmonica (met by three gunmen whom he soon dispatches). All the men - those at the McBains and the train depot - wore long coats, a trademark of local bandit Cheyenne and his gang, but it's Frank, who works for a railroad baron, who wants McBain's land and is trying to frame Cheyenne for the killing. Harmonica has his own reasons for seeking Frank, leading to a showdown. A prostitute leaves her job and town to come to a part of the west with a long history of violence and avarice in order to join her new husband. When she finds him brutally murdered by an unknown assailant (Frank), she gets help from a mysterious harmonica player with a great talent for working with guns. He knows it's Frank, whom he's already been looking for himself for a long time (for an undisclosed purpose). While "Harmonica" continues his hunt for Frank, another outlaw, Cheyenne, also seeks Frank, killing his people to find him for his own reasons. A mysterious stranger with a harmonica joins forces with a notorious desperado to protect a beautiful widow from a ruthless assassin working for the railroad in this long frontier epic. Mysterious pasts and the strength of loyalties are explored amid lightning-fast gun battles and stylish vistas.

Three contestants, including a returning champion, competed. Six categories are announced (e.g., Pro Football, Presidents, Science and Nature, Famous Bobs, Automobiles and Words), each having five answers ostensibly graded by difficulty, from $10 to $50. The champion chose a category and dollar amount (e.g., "Presidents for $10"), to which host Fleming reads the answer ("The Father of our country; he really didn't chop down a cherry tree"). Contestants had to respond in question form ("Who was George Washington?") ; if correct, they won the value of the question; if he/she was incorrect, failed to answer in time or phrase in the form of a question, that amount was deducted (hence, the dollar amount was "always in jeopardy") and his/her opponents could answer; having enough incorrect answers often led to negative scores. Thereafter, the contestant providing the last correct question selected next, and the process repeated. Hidden behind one of the answers was a "Daily Double" space, with the contestant selecting that space able to wager up to all his/her current winnings (or up to $50 if he/she had less) on the answer. After all 30 answers have been revealed (or sometimes, an undefined time limit expired), the game moved into "Double Jeopardy!" Gameplay was the same in "Double Jeopardy!" except six new categories were announced and the answers had values of $20 to $100 and two "Daily Double" spaces were hidden (with contestants able to wager up to $100 if they had less). At the end of the "Double Jeopardy!" round, all contestants with at least $1 were eligible to play "Final Jeopardy!"; however, anyone with $0 or a negative score was eliminated and given consolation prizes. Fleming announced a category, and the contestants (before seeing the answer) wagered up to everything they had on their ability to answer. Contestants had 30 seconds to write what they believed was the correct question. Those who were correct had the amount they wagered added to their winnings; however, any incorrect questions or failing to phrase properly lost what they wagered. Everyone kept their winnings and the contestant with the most cash (usually not more than $1,000) was champion and got to return the next day. Champions competed until they won five shows (at which point they retired undefeated) or until they were defeated. The highest-scoring contestants and all five-time champions over a period of time participated in a Tournament of Champions, the winner earning an additional $25,000; there were also college tournaments and celebrity shows conducted. A quiz game-show, where the answers are revealed and the contestants must guess the questions. The answers appear on a grid, in various trivia categories, graded by difficulty.

13655 ::: The Biggest Chinese Restaurant in the World (2008) ::: documentary ::: West Lake Restaurant in South China's Changsha can safely call itself the biggest Chinese restaurant in the world, with its staff of 1,000 working 5,000 tables and serving no fewer than 150 ducks per day and 200 snakes per week. The words of the restaurant's staff and guests are used in the film to paint a picture of modern China: the proprietress, one of the city's 20 self-made millionaires, speaks candidly about her failed marriage; a bridegroom-to-be who is celebrating at the restaurant explains the modern Chinese customs associated with the wedding party; and a waitress visits her poor parents in the countryside. Through these scenes, we gain insight into the unique combination of the ancient religious values and the new capitalist values with which China is stepping into the 21st century. What becomes very clear is that not everyone is set to benefit from the economic boom. In an approach comparable to Jia Zhang-ke's in his portrait of a theme park called "The World," by focusing on the microcosm of the West Lake Restaurant, this film manages to gain a perspective on the huge changes China is going through.

13750 ::: Rodeo Rhythm (1942) ::: western ::: One of the rarest, which is okay as it seldom even appears on the want lists of dedicated P.R.C. collectors (especially those who have seen it), and one of the oddest of the "who-let-this-out" films. Filmed on location in the Kansas City area, with only B-western star Fred Scott and actress Loie Bridge the only two in the cast who had ever been in a film (and Scott had none after this), and the only other Hollywood connections were director Fred C. Newmeyer, who hadn't had a directing job since 1937 and who chose to be billed as Fred Neymeyer here; cameraman Edward A. Kull, billed as Eddie Kull and editor George Halligan, who may have assumed it wouldn't be seen by anybody and kept his own name on the credits. At this period in time, actress Loie Bridge was a Kansas City residence herself. Sister of actor Alan Bridge, the pair had their start in Kansas City co-managing a stock company at the Empress Theatre, before brother Al headed for Minneapolis and, later, the bright lights of Tinseltown. Loie stayed at home in Kansas City running stock companies, with an occasional role in California in early 1930's B-westerns that usually had brother Al in the cast. Loie left Kansas City for good it appears circa 1942-43 and had a fair career as a character actress. Roy Knapp, a Kansas City dry cleaner, opened a kid's riding academy in that city circa 1926 and,in a few years, his troupe of riding young daredevils (ages from 4 years old to late teens) were performing in rodeos and livestock shows all over the American Midwest. One of the riding stars of the troupe was a 5-year-old girl named (correct spelling) Roylene "Small Fry" Smith, who evidently became Donna Jean Meinke somewhere along the way, according to the cast listing on the IMDb. While the film is a showcase for Roy Knapp's "Rough Riders," it is not a story of the group, although "Knapp" is the character role names for Scott and Bridge, who play brother and sister. She plays Tillie Knapp, struggling to keep the Knapp Orphanage open. The highlight event at the Orphanage each year is the annual summer vacation visit the kids make to the ranch of her brother Buck, who sends her money to pay for the trip. Alas, this year, Alex Twitchell, local money-bag version of Snively Whiplash, has purchased the mortgage due on the orphanage and the Knapp Ranch, and demands immediate payment. Tillie gives him all the money that had been saved for the trip. To keep the kids, orphans all, from being disappointed, her old vaudeville partner, Joe Stegge, takes her and the kids to the ranch in his truck. The kids learn that Uncle Buck and Aunt Tillie are in dire straits and enlist the aid of Jim Corey, a former member of the orphanage, and Ellie Knapp, Buck's daughter, to help them put on a rodeo and use the money to help Aunt Tillie. Whiplash, uh, Twitchell arrives and legally ties up all of Buck's property, which includes the ponies the kids were going to ride in the rodeo and pay off the old homestead. But Twitchell is in a car wreck, and the kids save his life by taking him from under the car and rushing him to the hospital. Twitchell releases the ponies and the rodeo is held and enough money raised to pay off the mortgage. But Twitchell says the money is for them and he not only is going to retire the mortgage himself, he is going to build them a bigger and better Orphanage. While producer Leo J. McCarthy wrote the story, he and the two other writers chose to be uncredited also or, at least, PRC chose not to credit them. Aside from the riding ability of the kids---and they were good---this film is a good measurement of the talent level of Kansas City stock company players at the time, which also indicates that Kansas City was among the last to know that Vaudeville had died. But Victor Adamson and Robert J. Horner made worse films without leaving California. Not by much, though.

And little by little, his father opened up, telling an incredible tale, building a narrative about him, his parents and siblings. A story that begins with a picture book childhood of love and wonder, and descends into a frightful scenario of abuse, abandonment, drugs, death and vengeance. For five years Kyle filmed his father, mother, aunt, uncle, grandfather, their friends and neighbors; and pursued the truth about his past, creating a documentary feature that not only proves to be a liberating catharsis for both father and son, but also bonds them into a close and loving union that neither could have imagined when the project started. "Mumford's Law" charts the perilous, but ultimately joyous journey of a family to grow beyond their legacy, and achieve greater love, understanding and acceptance. The film serves as a beacon for other sons and fathers and families who may wish to transcend their own troubled pasts.

In Redfern, the black ghetto of Sydney - a holy place on a hill in the city; and in Warakurna, one of the seven small communities of the Ngaanyatjarra language-group in the Gibson Desert, 800 kilometers west of the small town of Alice Springs. Each confrontation with a different culture is a confrontation with our own culture.

Aborigines are ordinary people, but they have preserved faculties that we in the west have lost. After 2.000 years of extermination, subordination, and awareness of the permanent white presence on their land, they give a worthy and self-conscious token of their existence.

The rider rides on and comes to a cabin, receives no answer to his knock, steps in, and finds a dead man with a bullet in his head hunched over a table. But no time to ponder the situation as he hears the clatter of horse hooves and sees one rider being roped from the saddle by another rider. The roped rider is a girl and the stranger goes to her rescue and whips up on her pursuer, who is "Black Mike" Gonzado. Gonzando gets away and the girl tells the stranger that she is Gloria O'Neill, daughter of rancher Buck O'Neill, who is at war with neighboring rancher Jess Roarke and his outfit, but nobody's quite sure why. The stranger introduces himself as Tom Roarke, son of Jess Roarke, and says he has been on a ranch in Texas, while his father's ranch was being managed by foreman Lou Bolton. Tom somewhere gathers the impression that Gloria's brother, Danny O'Neill killed the man in the cabin but decides to help the O'Neill family anyway. He rides to his father's ranch, where Bolton accuses him of aiding the O'Neill's, and Jess Roarke orders son Tom Roarke off the property.

Filmmaker 'Michael Moore (II)' (qv) was born and raised in Flint, Michigan, a city dominated by one company, General Motors (GM), which is the largest corporation in the world and which was founded in Flint. The people of Flint were prosperous because of GM, and in turn GM was successful because of the people of Flint. The fortunes of Flint take a decidedly downward turn when GM Chair, 'Roger B. Smith' (qv), decides to close eleven GM plants, most in Flint, which means the loss of 30,000 jobs there.

14120 ::: The Dawn Rider (1935) ::: western ::: When John Mason's father is killed, John is wounded. Attracted to his nurse Alice, a conflict arises between him and his friend Ben who plans to marry Alice. John later finds the killer of his father but goes to face him not knowing Ben has removed the bullets from his gun. This film is a remake of 1931's "Galloping Thru" which was directed by Lloyd Nolser and supervised by Paul Malvern from an original by Wellyn Totman. "The Dawn Trail", produced by Malvern,now gives the original film's director, Nosler, the story credit instead of Totman and rightly giving Nosler a more-correct screenplay credit.And, in 1938, Malvern makes the film again---"Western Trails" with Bob Baker--- and this time Norton S. Parker is given the story credit. Bottom line is Trem Carr and Paul Malvern bought it from Totman in 1931 and gave the Story credit to whoever wrote the screenplay on the two remakes, and writer Wellyn Totman loses two credits rightfully belonging to him. The 1938 remake subs the name "Bob Mason" for "John Mason"(in "The Dawn Trail") and all of the other main character names in "Western Trails" stayed the same. Check it out. The story has John Mason, after several seasons of punching cattle in Texas, coming back home to see his father,agent for the local freight line. He is not, as some summaries show, coming to town to avenge his father's death...his father ain't dead when he hits the city limits. On his way over to see his father, John bumps into Ben McClure, they have a fight, and Ben, a good-hearted fellow, decides the drinks are on him and he and John become fast friends in no time at all. John then decides to amble over to the freight office and call on his father, Dan Mason, and arrives in the midst of a hold-up and the elder Mason is killed. John pursues the robbers and is shot from his horse. Badly wounded, he is taken to his new best-friend's cabin, and is nursed back to health by Ben's sweetheart (although she doesn't know this), Alice Gordon and, as Totman's original story and Nosler's swipe would have it, John and Alice fall in love, especially after she saves his life from a gang headed by her brother, Rudd, who held up the freight station and killed Mason's father. None of which John knows. Recovered, he suspects Ben, who is already miffed because John has stolen his sweetheart, even if neither John nor Alice are aware of Ben's claim. Rudd challenges John to a duel in the street and Ben, plied with liquor supplied by Rudd and the gang member saloon owner, goes off and removes the cartridges from John's gun. John picks up his gun and heads for town. John is out in the street, with an empty gun, about to face Rudd, whose gun isn't empty. All three versions of Totman's original story---no matter who was given the remake credit---are among the best (a relative term) of the B-Western genre. Well, in the case of "The Dawn Rider", the reference is to the original B&W Lone Star version, and not to the awful colorized video version that, for some unknown reason, has dubbed voices and a completely unneeded---not to mention bad---musical track added.

14194 ::: 6ft Hick: Notes from the Underground (2010) ::: documentary ::: A behind-the-scenes music documentary that reveals the messy, all-too human face of the low-budget music scene in stark contrast to the perceived glamour of an internationally touring rock band. Raised on a chicken farm in rural Nambour, on Australia's northeast coast, front men Geoff and Ben Corbett sought their artistic beginnings in the 80s, dabbling in punk and performance art. They milked their North Queensland roots relentlessly for its inbred, bigoted imagery, filtered through wicked wit and self-deprecation. Touring for 15 years, the band has become an underground institution. One reviewer described their show as "an indistinguishable pulverising barrage of screams, sweat, spit and blood flowing over a fierce, raw pulsing din." Their shows engender an atmosphere of trance and possession as the duo lurch around the stage, barrel into the crowd, hang upside-down from lighting rigs, drink beer from boots, eat the contents of ashtrays, and blood let. Their mild-mannered alter egos spend every waking moment maintaining day jobs and living normal lives, and amassing resources until they may re-awaken that beast. This documentary takes stock of the 6ft Hick machinery: what motivates and drives them in a world where music is about cashing in or bowing out? Offstage, these same figures are humble, considered and witty, offering candid insight into what they've created.

14614 ::: A Chance for Peace (2017) ::: documentary ::: Kenya's post-election violence received little coverage in the mainstream US media. Six-hundred thousand people were displaced and nearly 2,000 people died, but it was treated as a throw-away story, summarized as "just another tribal conflict in Africa." But the narrative of the barbaric Africans wasn't the whole story - and Tyler, an 24-year-old resident of California, knew that. He knew that because he had volunteered in Kenya in the months leading up to the election. His host father, Emmanuel Leina just so happened to be running for Member of Parliament. The then naive art student became an impassioned campaign speaker. It wasn't until Tyler return to California that the violence breaks out in Kenya. With limited news coverage, Tyler relies on Facebook to connect with Emmanuel. Each day is uncertain. Will Emmanuel survive or be killed? Thus emerged the documentary filmmaker. Risking everything, Tyler sets out to tell the story of peace he knew no one else would cover. What he saw would stay with him for 9 years until the completion of A Chance for Peace could be realized. When Tyler arrived in Kenya, three unsung heroes emerged. One, a vagabond street artist turned peace messenger; the second, a rural clinic nurse turned medical marvel; and the third, a Maasai pioneer in education transforming the future of his community literally from the ground up. Part travelogue, part testimony, part coming-of-age, A Chance for Peace shows us what it look like when we don't accept peace as just the absence of violence. The men, women, and children in this film collectively challenge the preconceived notions of Africa as hopeless and desperate and create a new identity of hope and action by will and faith alone. But with entire communities relying on them, how sustainable can it be? Before the answer to that question can be answered, Tyler first must undergo his own crisis to find out - a crisis that takes him all over the world from the slums of Nairobi to the streets of Cairo to learn about peace and to dismantle the misguided media narrative of Africa as "The Dark Continent." Three Kenyan unsung heroes take peace-building into their own hands following the post-election violence of 2007. But wrapping production is just the beginning for Director Tyler Batson who, through a series of unfortunate events, is forced to navigate the depths of his motivation and the true meaning of peace in a global context.

As the American economy struggles to recover from the 2008 recession - and as the cost of higher education continues to soar without an equivalent growth in the job market - students are being saddled with increasing amounts of debt. How will they pay it all back? What is their education really worth if it means years of financial insecurity? These are the kinds of questions I'll ask as I set off across the country this fall, looking for answers as my own loans come due. I plan to explore the issues facing young Americans by offering a personal look into the struggles that many endure. I'm interested in unemployment and under-employment, in the debate over student loan interest rates and in the rural "brain-drain," as educated youth head to cities to find work. By gathering stories from young Americans and knitting those into my own, I hope to deepen the discussion about the future of America's recent graduates as it relates to our country's economic and social prosperity.

Among those, there were many Hutu moderates, rivals of the so-called "Hutu power" extremists,. The night of April 6th 1994, the president in power, the Hutu exponent Habyarimana, was killed in an attack. A few hours later, the extremists took control of the Country and started mass murdering. It was surprising how many of the people took part in these killings. The genocide was carried out by armed militias made up mostly by local citizens. The homicide machine was perfectly prepared. The Department of Defence had bought an enormous quantity of arms from abroad, including "unconventional" weapons, such as six hundred thousand machetes from China. The killers were very efficient and were able to kill over ten thousand in only one day. Canandian General Romeo Dallaire's Blue helmets suffered losses, and this convinced the UN Security Council to withdraw the major part of the forces even while the genocide proceeded rapidly. Dallaire and his men didn't have a chance to stop the carnage, but still they were able to save around 25,000 people. The genocide didn't stop until General Paul Kagame, today's President of Rwanda, who headed the Rwandan Patriotic Front, defeated the Hutu extremists who controlled the government. As a result of an escape route in south-west Rwanda - made by the "Operation Turquoise", a French military exercise authorized by the UN officially to separate the victims from the killers - those responsible for the massacre fled into adjacent Zaire, today's Democratic Republic of Congo, and blended themselves into the flood of Hutu refugees who left their country to to escape from the raids organized by the Patriotic Front.

Kobresia is a genus of plants in the sedge family. Kobresia is also a music track by the Norwegian ambient electronic musician Geir Jenssen, aka Biosphere. The song has had great impact on me and my approach to the work. For me, "kobresia" has come to represent something layered, organic, sometimes nuanced, subtle, sometimes obvious, but always something bound by the notion that the whole of a story is synergistic, more than the sum of it's parts. Sometimes it is about a feeling or notion in it's pure state, but not necessary something tidy. These films are experiments in abstract, non-linear narrative and personal imagistic storytelling.

"Fire-Followers" is a fake documentary about Bergen as a quiet city in the Northern Europe being endangered due to its artistic heritage. The idea of the project came last May 2011 when Karolina Bregula was in Bergen at Faggfabbriken for a student exchange. The film revolves around the fact form Bergen's history - throughout the ages the town has burned regularly. In Bregula's film despite of modern methods aimed at protecting the town from fires so that its inhabitants could finally live without thinking that any moment a new catastrophe would appear, the fear has never left them. The whole town is talking about art historians who believe that without fires the progress of art would be impossible. "In their opinion, if the art heritage is not destroyed, the young artists will not be able to work" Bregula explains her concept. "For the historians in my film only fire can help to come out of a deadlock. The residents suspect that the art historians are running a secret organization which aims to set the fires destroying the historical art and so museums, galleries and private art collections are all considered to be in danger" she adds. It is a film about fear and paranoia casting a shadow on a peaceful city life but it can also be read as artist's institutional critique or a reflection on the relation between art and its recipients. Currently the movie is being presented on 55th La Biennale di Venezia.

This is a 'runaway production' shot in England for political reasons and not for the usual USA tax-break reasons.

The years pass and they are unable to save enough money to get out of their slum tenement, and the 1929 depression brings even harder times to the family that now includes three children. Geremio, in order to make enough money to care for his family, exploits his "comrades" in dangerous construction work. This practice leads to the accidental death of his best friend, and, in grief, Geremio also becomes unfaithful to his wife. The messages of the film -- life is aimless and no man can judge the true worth of another man -- are pounded on for most of the two-hour running time.

15043 ::: The Dead (1987) ::: drama ::: John Huston's last film is a labor of love at several levels: an adaptation of perhaps one of the greatest pieces of English-language literature by one of Huston's favorite authors, James Joyce; a love letter to the land of his ancestors and the country where his children grew up; and the chance to work with his screenwriter son Tony and his actress daughter Anjelica.

Among the visiting attendees are the sisters' nephew Gabriel Conroy and his wife Gretta. The evening's reminiscences bring up melancholy memories for Gretta concerning her first, long-lost love when she was a girl in rural Galway. Her recounting of this tragic love to Gabriel brings him to an epiphany: he learns the difference between mere existence and living.

15211 ::: A FORMAL FILM in NINE EPISODES, PROLOGUE & EPILOGUE (2011) ::: documentary ::: A FORMAL FILM IN NINE EPISODES, PROLOGUE and EPILOGUE describes a contemporary Asian Metropolis through an observational, anthropological approach to filmmaking.

Shot on 35mm in only single takes, the production of the film attempts to be aware of its outsider position looking at a contemporary, vastly booming Third World Country and it's cultural history of 5,000 years by capturing and re-enacting experienced situations. Trying to avoid a clear genre definition to this film, it is entirely shot on location in the city of Mumbai and it's suburbia.

15224 ::: La multitud (2013) ::: documentary ::: In the margins of the city, two lots sharing coincidences are placed in a dialogue. They were both locations for entertainment built by different dictatorships: The Sport City of La Boca was built during Ongania's de facto government, and the Interama amusement park opened near the end of the last military regime. Today both places are in ruins and their surroundings harbor settlements and shanty towns where thousands of families live, many of them migrants and in extreme poverty. Through a thorough investigation, Oesterheld becomes an explorer with a privileged eye who films the transit of those characters as they frequently pass through these places, and he depicts the present day over the tracks history left on the urban landscape.

15240 ::: Age of Wonders (1999) ::: fantasy ::: The game has a single-player campaign, playable from two sides (more campaigns have been made by the community since release), and many maps, both included and user-created that can be played in Hotseat mode, over a LAN, on the Internet, or by email (PBEM). Up to 12 players can participate in a single game, depending on the map. Players have an isometric view of the map, which consists of hexagonal tiles, and can have up to three layers (surface, caverns, and depths). Units are arranged into groups (also known as parties or stacks) of up to eight units; a single such group occupies one tile. Cities occupy between one and four tiles, and other structures generally occupy a single tile. Each player leads a certain race. There are 12 races available in the game, though not all of them may be present on every map, and of those which are, not all may be playable. List of races includes traditional fantasy Elves, Lizardmen, Humans, Goblins, Dark Elves, Undead, Orcs, Dwarves and Halflings, as well as several unique ones such as Frostlings, Azracs, and Highmen. Races, as well as units not belonging to any specific race, such as dragons and giants, have a certain alignment, which can be good, neutral, or evil. According to their alignment and certain other factors, cities and independent units of one race can be friendly or hostile towards another race. This can manifest itself in different ways; for example, an orc city is not likely to surrender to the elves, and if conquered, may revolt unless there is a strong military presence in it to oppress the population. Units of hostile races forced to fight alongside each other in a single group will have lower morale, and are more likely to desert. Race relations can be improved by acts of goodwill towards other races, such as upgrading their cities, or hampered by razing, looting, or migrating cities belonging to that race. Diplomacy can also affect this and even an alliance with one race might affect the relation of another race. There are also several spells which have a global effect on race relations. There are two resources, gold and mana. Gold is used to build units, buy heroes, cities and spells (in Wizard Towers), upgrade cities. Mana is used to cast and research spells and use altars.
15241 ::: Myth Makers 45: Jack Pitt (1999) ::: documentary ::: It had four castors, a shaky piece of wood, four pieces of metal, this fibre glass top and rubber bits hanging down the side. Who you might ask is JACK PITT? He was actually one of the extras who inhabited the legion of monsters seen in DOCTOR WHO during William Hartnell's era. His memories of the early days of television and (more importantly) squeezing into Venom Grubs and Mechanoids are both evocative and humorous. But what Jack really brings to MYTH MAKERS is a personal insight into William Hartnell's life. For eighteen months Jack shared digs with William and this gives him a unique view of a pivotal point in both William Hartnell's career and in the programme's history. Nicholas Briggs reminisces with Jack about DOCTOR WHO in the 1960's and uncovers some surprising facts.

15275 ::: Jandamarra's War (2011) ::: documentary ::: In Jandamarra's War, we learn how in the 1890's the European colonialists arrive in the Kimberley with vast herds of sheep and cattle, determined to make their fortune by feeding a rapidly growing population in the South. But the settlers soon discover they are in land populated with indigenous tribes, ready to fight the red-faced invaders. Jandamarra is born into this turmoil in 1873. His spirit country, on his father's side, is a land called Djumbud. His mother Jinny, a powerful and independent woman, belongs to the Lennard River flat lands. At the age of six, Jinny takes Jandamarra onto William Lukin's million-acre cattle station at Lennard River Flats. Jandamarra quickly excels in all pastoral skills - much to the pride of Lukin who, like other settlers, boasts about his stockmen's abilities as tribute to his own skills of tutelage and management. Jandamarra remains at Lennard River Flats until it is time for him to be initiated into Bunuba law. His uncle Ellemarra is a very powerful influence during this period of intense education and rapid personal growth. But Jandamarra's passage into manhood is interrupted when they are both arrested and jailed for spearing a sheep. When he is released from custody, Jandamarra is banished from Bunuba society because sexual relationships he has had with various women, have broken strict kinship rules. With nowhere else to go, Jandamarra is assimilated into settler culture and ends up working with Constable Richardson who is, himself, an outsider in his own community. Their relationship is a strange one and oddly close - until that fateful night when Jandamarra kills Richardson, and returns to his people. Now fugitives, Jandamarra, Ellemarra and others attack a party of stockmen who are driving a large herd of cattle into the heart of Bunuba land. Two of the white men, Burke and Gibbs, are killed. This is the first time that guns are used by Aboriginals against European settlers in an organised fashion. Across Western Australia, enraged white colonialists bay for vengeance. A posse of 30 heavily armed police and settlers attack Jandamarra, Ellemarra and their followers at Windjana Gorge. In the ensuing battle, Ellemarra is killed and Jandamarra is seriously wounded, but escapes through a labyrinth of caves. Jandamarra recovers and leads a guerilla war against the settlers from hideouts in the caves and surrounding ranges of Windjana Gorge and Tunnel Creek. But the rebellion comes at a very high price as police and station owners embark on a military-style operation against Aboriginal camps throughout the region. Many Aboriginal people are killed in the massacres that ensue. Jandamarra responds by modifying his tactics. He doesn't kill any more settlers but embarks on a three year terror campaign - killing stock and stealing provisions from under the settlers' noses at night - deliberately leaving behind footmarks and other traces that tell the settlers that he's been there and could have killed them very easily, if he had wanted to. The police try to pursue Jandamarra after his raids but he always seems to find a way to elude capture.

Two of them used to date ten years ago. The story is told through an interviewer and interviewees. Past stories are unearthed and overlap with the present, leading to a new story that seems like something totally different from what it started from.

15556 ::: Guerrilla News Network: The War Conspiracy (2002) ::: short ::: In 1970, at the height of the Vietnam War and on the heels of Nixon's announcement that U.S. troops would invade Cambodia, a mild-mannered English professor at UC Berkeley completed a startling book called The War Conspiracy. Yet, despite the fact that the author's publisher was Bobbs Merrill, a major literary brand, the book never reached the public domain. Little did the professor know there were powerful forces working behind the scenes to prevent its release. He would later discover that through its ties to ITT, a major shareholder in Bobbs Merrill, the Central Intelligence Agency was able to suppress the book. What was it about The War Conspiracy that so frightened the CIA and prompted them to deter its release? And who was this upstart writer who had pried so deeply into the covert machinations of U.S. intelligence that he had become one of the few American authors ever to have his work suppressed by an agency of the United States government? As you will discover, the CIA had good reason to intercept the work of Peter Dale Scott, then a relatively unknown poet and political dissident. For The War Conspiracy was more than an intellectual treatise on the virtues of disarmament. It was a riveting investigation of the CIA, the oil companies and their manipulation of U.S. foreign policy in order to escalate the Vietnam War. In his review of the book, Noam Chomsky remarked on Scott's "meticulous and fascinating analysis of intelligence conspiracies and the links between the 'intelligence community' and corporate power." Now, three decades after the sabotaged publication of the book, Guerrilla News Network presents a beat-driven, design-enhanced video of The War Conspiracy. In addition, we are featuring an in-depth interview with Professor Scott regarding the new War on Terrorism and how it parallels his research in the Vietnam era. We are also honored to present an exclusive publication of the Introduction to The War Conspiracy, revised and re-edited on the thirtieth anniversary of the book's conception. Welcome to the 'deep political' world of Peter Dale Scott...

15579 ::: Get Lamp (2010) ::: documentary ::: With limited sound, simple graphics, and tiny amounts of computing power, the first games on home computers would hardly raise an eyebrow in the modern era of photorealism and surround sound. In a world of Quake, Half-Life and Halo, it is expected that a successful game must be loud, fast, and full of blazing life-like action. But in the early 1980s, an entire industry rose over the telling of tales, the solving of intricate puzzles and the art of writing. Like living books, these games described fantastic worlds to their readers, and then invited them to live within them. They were called "computer adventure games", and they used the most powerful graphics processor in the world: the human mind. Rising from side projects at universities and engineering companies, adventure games would describe a place, and then ask what to do next. They presented puzzles, tricks and traps to be overcome. They were filled with suspense, humor and sadness. And they offered a unique type of joy as players discovered how to negotiate the obstacles and think their way to victory. These players have carried their memories of these text adventures to the modern day, and a whole new generation of authors have taken up the torch to present a new set of places to explore. Get Lamp is a documentary that will tell the story of the creation of these incredible games, in the words of the people who made them.

15585 ::: Nude (2015) ::: documentary ::: This is a film with and about Ashland, OR artists. Greeley Wells, director, and Ed Keller, editor, got an idea for a film about artists discussing the nude figure. The project started with 10 hours of interview footage. The concept was do something free form allowing the artists themselves to drive the content with a few statements of intent by Greeley. They described the beauty and meaning it had for them. The creations it gave birth to. The creative process became central with it's concentration, focus, deep, close, clear seeing and acceptance. When the concept of the muse arose it was discussed in its many forms as how it seemed to inform and flow through them. This excitement and fulfillment was central to the creative process. Artists make creative use of the nude and that echoes through all history. The conversation shifted to the problems with nudity in our society. The distortions and fear, society's nude taboos of endless stress and distress, exploitation and exhibitionism and a million other permutations: religious, societal, family, illness, traumas, etc. It occurred to us: why were artists immune to this? If you concentrate on something, learn about it, look deeply at it and practice it, you eventually fall in love with it and respect it. The most important conclusion we came to was that those very artist's creative skills could be useful in finding solutions to many of the world's other problems. Perhaps even the Muse would come forth to inform us of solutions.

At the age of 25, Tiz is considered a survivor. Through intimate vignettes of the Milliner family, Tiz's close-knit crew, his pregnant girlfriend, his overzealous manager, and his mentor, the legendary Kool G Rap, Tiz's hopes and the quiet despair of his "book of life filled with pain" gradually emerge. Tiz's best friend Mel is a veteran of the "drug game" and has spent some part of every year in prison since he was twelve. Now, he's out. But with little hope of breaking the game's vicious cycle of money, dark deeds and long spells of incarceration, Mel's life represents everything Tiz is trying to escape. Real escape, however, may be a goal beyond possibility. And with the birth of Tiz's son, it becomes unavoidably evident that Tiz's fate and his hopes for success involve far more than just his own happiness. The whole crew has come to depend on his realizing it.

15640 ::: Swahili, People of the Coast (2011) ::: documentary ::: Swahili, Peoples of the Kenya Coast, directed Sergio Dow, follows Dr. Chap Kusimba's more than two decades of research in East Africa. Dr. Kusimba has been carrying out archaeological research in Kenya since 1986. His research has been concerned with understanding the ancient and modern history of the peoples of the Kenyan coast and the interior. For this documentary, we learned a great deal about the history of Kenya. Informed largely through Dr. Kusimba's research at the ancient port city of Mtwapa. At Mtwapa and other Coastal towns the settlers interact with foreign merchants some of whom were Muslim, and through this interaction, a new culture that incorporated both African and Islamic traditions emerged. This culture is known as the Swahili coast or Peoples of the coast. The language mainly spoken here is Kiswahili. Pioneer scholars of the Swahili, were wrong in hypothesizing that the Swahili people and their language was a mixture of Arabic and African. Trade with Africa was a major catalyst for change including the introduction of Islam. As time went by, the volume and intensity of trade increased. They exchanged things consisting of ivory, cattle, milk, honey, pottery, beads, and much more. Today the coast and its people who practice more traditional crafts such as boat building have a much harder time competing with new technological innovations such as the introduction of large sea going ships. These ships have made it impossible for the locally made dhows to compete. As a result, local boat making had declined from 75 dhows a year to less than 10.

15649 ::: The Team (2010) ::: documentary ::: Kenya has long been considered Africa's success story-relatively stable and ethnically harmonious. But following their December 2007 Presidential election, everything changed. Voting controversy split the country along ethnic lines, pushing Kenya to civil war. The international community intervened, a fragile peace was brokered, and a Truth and Reconciliation framework put in place. But as ethnic suspicion and violence continue to paralyze the country, many dismiss these actions as hollow political theatre. An alternative local response is the creation of a taboo-breaking TV soap opera, "The Team," following the struggles of a co-ed multi-ethnic soccer squad to overcome their differences, both on and off the pitch. There's inherent drama behind any TV production: will deadlines be met; will it be good? But here the stakes are exponentially higher: if you don't captivate an audience, you risk further losing your country. "The Team" is an intense, character-driven documentary offering a unique look at youth culture and popular media, following characters on and off the set, exploring how lives are reflected in the soap, and vice-versa. What can a soap opera achieve in a place desperate for change but teetering on the brink? Watch and see. Kenya has long been considered Africa's success story-relatively stable and ethnically harmonious. But following their December 2007 Presidential election, everything changed. Voting controversy split the country along ethnic lines, pushing Kenya to civil war. The international community intervened, a fragile peace was brokered, and a Truth and Reconciliation framework put in place. But as ethnic suspicion and violence continue to paralyze the country, many dismiss these actions as hollow political theatre. An alternative local response is the creation of a taboo-breaking TV soap opera, "The Team," following the struggles of a co-ed multi-ethnic soccer squad to overcome their differences, both on and off the pitch. There's inherent drama behind any TV production: will deadlines be met; will it be good? But here the stakes are exponentially higher: if you don't captivate an audience, you risk further losing your country. "The Team" is an intense, character-driven documentary offering a unique look at youth culture and popular media, following characters on and off the set, exploring how lives are reflected in the soap, and vice-versa. What can a soap opera achieve in a place desperate for change but teetering on the brink? Watch and see.
15650 ::: Minnâ-yatteruka! (1994) ::: comedy ::: A slapstick comedy, about a goofy middle-aged man who is obsessed with the idea of having car sex. While pursuing his 'dream', he makes all the wrong moves possible, and ends up enrolling in a number of crazy escapades. From the acclaimed director Takeshi Kitano [Fireworks, Kikujiro] comes a bizarre, over the top and absurd comedy full of slapstick silliness and never ending gags. A great satire of Japanese society and popular cinema, Getting Any?, embraces the spirit of Kitano's early stand-up and television work and as such it offers a genuine inside look into his true personality. The story follows the nerdy middle age Asao, a professional daydreamer, whose one and only goal in life is - as the title suggests - to get laid. Asao embarks on a series of slapstick adventures in search of fulfilling his ultimate fantasy - making wild passionate sex with a woman. His holy quest for sex lands Asao in a series of absurd situations, involving robbery schemes, big movie productions, yakuza gang rivalry wars and scientific experiments. Getting Any? may be very episodic and perhaps even pointless in the grand scheme of things, but for those willing to go for it, it's a hoot from start to finish. Asao is a daydreamer who fantasizes about having wild, passionate sex in a car. Since he has neither a car nor a girlfriend, he embarks on a series of slapstick adventures in search of both: he sells his grandfather's internal organs, robs a bank, steals an armored car, searches for buried treasure, becomes an actor in a Zatoichi movie, joins the yakuza, and even becomes an experimental subject in a human-invisibility project.

Its students consist of Griz, a hoggish stubborn but good-hearted pig; Bully Wooly Mammoth, a gentle giant who loves to play the piano; and Slogo and Logan, two Eastern-European relatives who come from a carnival and bring their circus-antics into the school with them.

Much of the school's involves talent agents from outer space, invisible strings seen only through imagination, and most notably live-action kids who stampede around when the bell rings (woe betide anyone in their path).

15820 ::: Futbaal: The Price of Dreams (2007) ::: sport ::: When the Iranian National Soccer team comes to America to play the U.S. team, BABAK is their captain. He is the young, handsome face of the team with the quick moves of a lightweight boxer. Simply stated, he is the star. Babak's older brother MOURAD (once a fine player in his own right - but never having the talent of Babak) is attached to the team as they tour the States - perhaps only to handle his brother. The two are very close, but differ ideologically in that Mourad is much more fundamental. The story begins with the Iranian team playing the U.S. squad in Los Angeles. We learn that Babak had been approached months earlier in Iran about possibly staying in the U.S. to play for the local professional team. Babak receives a one million dollar signing bonus to join the Los Angeles Vipers pro team just prior to the end of their regular season and help their chances in the playoffs. Mourad is incensed by his brother's decision and attempts to explain that Babak is compromising his life on many levels - patriotically, religiously, and most importantly, the abandonment of family. Babak can never go home. Babak meets SORAYA, a beautiful, charming Iranian/American who's an up and coming reporter for a national Cable Sports Channel and the sister of the Vipers owner. The two young people have an immediate attraction. Her brother, DR. SHAFAIAN, is a very powerful figure in the local Iranian community. Although he professes to be a friend to Babak, until the end we are unaware of where Dr. Shafaian's loyalties lie. The pressures of a new country, a new soccer team, his brother's cynicism, and the involvement with Soraya all come to a head as the Vipers play the Dallas Panthers for the Championship. Adding to the anxiety is a blackmail plot - threatening to imprison Mourad and the rest of his family should Babak stay, or perhaps be imprisoned himself should he try to return to Iran. This compelling immigrant's story is how one's life is impacted by the decisions of life, family, religion, and morality that face every person chasing the American Dream.

This is the story of Keith McDermott, a promising young actor who lands the coveted role of the boy opposite Richard Burton on Broadway. Based on true events. Peter Shaffer's classic play, Equus first came to New York City in 1975 after garnering rave reviews in London's West End. In London, Anthony Hopkins and Peter Firth played the now iconic roles of psychiatrist Dr. Martin Dysart and the young boy, Alan Strang, who blinded six horses. Richard Burton takes over Hopkins' role in America and Keith McDermott wins the plumb role of the boy. This is Keith's story. The role of Alan Strang is the role of a lifetime; a part that will surely turn this unknown talent into a household name. At least that is what young Keith thinks. Winning the part is both exciting and terrifying to Keith. In this role, he must bare himself to the world, metaphorically and quite literally. And he must also hold his own for much of the play alone on stage with the legendary (and intimidating) Richard Burton. At this point in 1975, Burton had been away from the Broadway stage for 12 years and tension mounts as many fear his alcohol problems are not conducive to live theater and he might not give the high caliber performance he repeatedly delivers on film, thus putting the director and entire cast on edge. Keith must also deal with the pressures of the infamously difficult director, John Dexter. With his subconscious tugging at him that he is unworthy, Keith has trouble shedding his "struggling actor" lifestyle. Keith slowly tries to wean himself off of gay prostitution, his seedy source of income that provides him with an unhealthy sense of self worth and inflated confidence. He continues to wait tables and pick up anonymous tricks throughout rehearsals, though he's concerned about being outed as a gay actor, understandable in the 70s. The journey of an artist is rife with self-examination, challenges, highs and lows, and disappointments. Their personal choices weigh as heavily on his or her success as talent or luck. There is little room for self-doubt or hiding from the truth. In the end, passion and determination for one's craft will fuel the most complicated career path - as difficult as the road may be. Both Keith and Burton explore and strive to overcome their own insecurities and form a lasting bond in the process.

Upon entering the dark woods along the way, Karin leaves Ingeri behind and both have an encounter with strangers, but only one returns to Karin's family farm. In Sweden during the Middle Ages, married couple Töre and Märeta are prosperous and devout farmers. They dote on their only surviving offspring, their daughter, the innocent Karin. Their attentiveness to her is despite her faults, such as her vanity and penchant for sleep when she should be doing farm work. It's early spring, and she is tasked with bringing candles to church for matins. She convinces her mother to let her wear her Sunday best if only in her want to look pretty. The church is in the nearest village which is still a good distance away, even by horseback. As such, she convinces her parents to allow Ingeri, their pregnant maidservant, to accompany her.

On their travels, the three brothers decide to take refuge at a farm, Töre and Märeta's farm, the couple who welcome the three into their manor house out of Christian charity. The questions become whether either side will discover their connection, and what Ingeri will do based on her prayers and what she witnessed.

The cab driver being a South Indian too, they share quite a friendly relationship. However, they do not look upon the lady in good eyes due to her so-called 'attitude' (or geographical differences)? The environment within the office cab changes starkly the moment this lady walks in. Soon after on-boarding the cab, she brings out her mobile phone and keeps talking to her mother continuously, giving almost no scope to the person on the other side of the call to speak up. One by one, she keeps sharing unhappy associations with her team lead, so-called best friend, ex-boyfriend, father who recently remarried, taunting boys in her neighborhood and so on - Her breathless meaningless depressive talks frustrate the male lead to such an extent that he keeps making ugly faces publicly all through. But as she reaches close to her office she disconnects the phone in a sobbing note, disclosing an highly unfortunate truth about her life which leaves her co-passenger totally shocked for the rest of his life. It is his realization which conveys the social message of the short film to its audience that things are not always how they seem. We should not create an impression about a person, just by initial interactions because we never know what miserable stories are hidden inside them. The film ends with some stunning facts about Depression in modern women and their fatal outcomes. The hour of need has come where instead of raising fingers at them, we should allow them to share their concerns.

15929 ::: The Bioscopewallah (2007) ::: short ::: The Webster's dictionary describes the 'Bioscope' as a kind of an early movie projector. However, in India it is popularly referred to a wooden box containing pictures and having four circular peeping holes. Whereas, Bioscopewallahs are those people who operate the box accompanied by songs, stories and jokes. They usually wander carrying a bioscope on their back and a tripod under the arm. There were a number of Bioscopewallahs in India before the advent of television. Now they have become sporadic and are confined mostly to the villages. Rau Kisan Waghmare is one such entertainer who is still eagerly awaited by children from all walks of life. They enjoy the show for a few minutes, but are left with memories of it forever. Rau was born in a dalit family in Dev Dhanora, a remote village in Osmanabad district, in Maharashtra - India. He played songadya in a tamasha theatre company before he became a Bioscopewallah. In 1971 his tamasha company closed down as a result of a drought. Jobless, Rau decided to leave his village in search of employment. He took a free drought relief train to Bombay along with his family. There he happened to see some Bioscopewallahs perform. He was impressed by the prospect of making it a livelihood, especially because it involved singing and entertaining, which he was accustomed to in the tamasha company. He and his family worked as labourers for a month, brought a bioscope and moved back to their village. Rau performed his shows even on his way back. Rau, the songadya, was transformed into a Bioscopewallah. About 35 years ago began his journey with the wooden box. During those days he charged his little patrons 5 paise each. As time went by, he increased it to Re. 1 and occasionally charges Rs. 2, subject to, locality. The Bioscope earned for him everything he wanted. He built a house in his village and got all his children married. However, after about a decade, he moved to Pune in Maharashtra because his sons hoped to find better opportunities in the city. Unfortunately, that was not to happen and his sons have taken to drinking. Rau Waghmare, at 84, still works hard for survival. Notwithstanding his age, the scorching heat or bitter cold, he sets out with his bioscope to earn a couple of humble meals and to look after his crippled wife. Nevertheless, poverty has not diminished his zest for life, his endless struggle and pride in his work. The Bioscopewallah is a brief encounter with an entertainer, Rau Waghmare who is also a rare occasion for pure and simple joy for children. A dalit folk artist, hit by an unfortunate drought Rau narrates in colloquial Marathi the story of his struggle for survival in the face of a natural calamity and migration. Rau's cheerful singing and gestures, his unconditional pride in the bioscope stand in contrast to the lurking shadows of poverty and failing health.

15932 ::: Vlast Solovetskaya. Svidetelstva i dokumenty (1988) ::: documentary ::: "Solovky Power" is a documentary about the first Soviet labor camp created by Lenin in 1923. Solovky was established in a complex of ancient monasteries on a cluster of islands off the remote White Sea coast. Though its name derives from the Russian word for nightingale, the title of the film echoes the term 'Soviet power', stressing the fact that from the very beginning the Soviet penal colonies were a world unto themselves. There, under the pretext of re-educating class enemies, an ever expanding, self-devouring army of policemen, sadistic jailers and common-law criminals had absolute power over prisoners, many of whom were the Russian elite of their day - farmers and workers, socialists, anarchists, scientists and writers. Among them, for instance, was Pavel Florensky, a religious philosopher who was also one of the greatest scientific minds of Russia. "Solovky Power" was filmed among the ruins of the Solovky Monasteries. It hauntingly mixes interviews with the camp's few survivors and historic materials which include propaganda footage about Maxim Gorky's visit to Solovky in 1928. Judging by this powerful film, after 70 years of dictatorship, glasnost may well be a genuine moment of truth for the Russian people, and one that may prove cathartic.

American Jack Turner is an investigative photojournalist whose work primarily is to expose large corporate incidents of ecological degradation. He makes an unannounced visit to the small Nova Scotia town where his divorced sister Olivia lives, she who he has not seen in years due to a slightly strained relationship between the two stemming from a disagreement concerning their now deceased parents. The source of the disagreement is the reason for Jack's ecological crusading in the first place. Olivia has two children, teen-aged Thomas and adolescent Sarah, with who she shares joint custody with her ex-husband Jean Marc. Thomas, who idolizes the work of his Uncle Jack, believes that he is in town to do an exposé on Cynaco, the new multinational corporate interest in town.

If Jack is indeed doing so, Jean Marc wants him to stop as Cynaco has brought wealth to the town unlike anything it has ever seen. Jack tells Olivia part of the real reason he is in town, the information of which she is not appreciative in its connection specifically to Thomas.

Everything about her brother's reappearance upsets Olivia's carefully constructed life, forcing the siblings to reopen wounds from the troubled past they share. Jack's eco-activist example inspires his young nephew to take action in his hometown, prompting Thomas to begin pursuing an investigation into the potential health risks caused by a local paint-manufacturing plant. The emotional and physical stakes escalate for Thomas as his uncle's influence inadvertently sets the passionate youth on his own collision course with fate. At the same time, Jack's unspoken need for human connection finds a willing match in Olivia's close friend, Lia, a single mother and kindergarten teacher at the local Waldorf School.

Our heroes are cousins Erik and Dwight Stifler. Erik has recently been dumped by his high school girlfriend and is trying to re-invent himself while pledging Dwight's fraternity, Beta House. Meanwhile, Dwight is trying to save Beta House from an onslaught by the newly established GEK ("Geek") House, which is led by power-hungry nerd leader Edgar and his band of geek brothers and sisters. Erik's best friend Mike "Cooze" Coozeman and his new roommate Bobby also pledge Beta House and ARE planning to enjoy college to the fullest. It promises to be a semester full of partying, craziness, pranks, and sexual tension to exceed expectations... ...and it does! Erik finds a girl, Ashley, to heal his heartbreak. Cooze dates Ashley's roommate Denise -- but finds himself in a possible "Crying Game" scenario. Dwight and the other Betas fight off Geek House for social supremacy on campus. The rivalry gets so intense that the only way to settle it is through direct competition in the Greek Games, an ancient campus ritual that went so far out of control it was banned forty years ago. It turns out that even Geeks can be bullies, so the Betas have to pull together to fend off the Geeks and prove that some traditions deserve to be upheld. Clutzy Erik Stifler is only accepted to the party animals' Beta frat as legacy of their wildest thing, his cousin Dwight. Still, Eric and his buddies Mike 'Cooze' Coozeman, Jake Parker and even fat Bobby do well in Beta's alternative hazing, a series of mostly fun to do and/or horny challenges. The lusciously housed, now most prestigious geeks frat and their president Edgar still are the butt of too many 'pranks', so he declares war and proves brains and money make dangerous adversaries. Ultimately this leads to a revival of the long-banned, lecherous Greek Olympiad, to be chaired by the last winner, Noah Levenstein.

16020 ::: Violin Masters: Two Gentlemen of Cremona (2010) ::: documentary ::: 350 years ago two violin makers from the same town, from the same block, made the most sought after violins ever achieved. Everyone has heard of Antonio Stradivari, but few have heard of Guarneri del Gesu. Through interviews with historians, experts and virtuosos this documentary tells the story of these two great men and why today their instruments are worth over $10 Million a piece. This documentary film examines the amazing confluence of time and talent that occurred in the early years of the 17th century when the two greatest violinmakers in history were working within steps of each other in the small Italian town of Cremona. One - Antonio Stradivari - is a household name; the other - Guarneri del Gesů - is considered a genius equal in every way to Stradivari, yet most outside of the music community have never heard of him. Why is that? Eminent historians and experts such as Charles Beare, Carlo Chiesa and Duane Rosengard weigh in on differences in productivity, clientele, life span, working technique and the "p.r." factor that characterized the two artists, while ten of the world's leading violinists, from Itzhak Perlman to Joshua Bell, share what makes them fall in love with a particular instrument and count on it, night after night, to enhance their sound. For unlike other Renaissance masterworks, these 300-year old Cremonese instruments of immense value are not kept under glass in museums; they are at once works of art - and working tools. And for all of our modern technology, they are tools we can not equal for sound, depth and color. Credit for that lies not in arcane "secrets" of wood, varnish, beetles, or climate, but rather, in the hands and hearts of the men, Antonio Stradivari and Guarneri del Gesů, sculptors of the world's purest sound.

Enrico is so enraptured at the sight of Isabelle in her resplendent attire that he becomes her abject slave, casting aside the poor, peasant-clad little Italian street singer, who has loved him devotedly. Crushed almost beyond endurance the poor girl stands sobbing at the entrance of the park where the inconsistent lever left her. Her tears attract the attention of a wealthy young couple who happen to pass. In answer to their queries she tells them how contemptibly her sweetheart acted, and all because of the fascinating influence of a gown. The lady is moved to commiseration and offers her aid in the gift of the most beautiful gown Veronica has ever seen. Her opportunity for revenge has turned her love to hate, and as she appears at the Italian Benevolent Association ball, she is the star of the event, for she looks like a queen as she promenades the ball room. She at once becomes the "Mrs. Trouble" of the evening, for the men all desert their partners and flock around her, beseeching but a smile. All this elicits from the women folk delicate little bon-mots such as "Hussy." "Temptress." "Cat," "False hair." "Paints." Oh, well, you know how it is. Enrico is thrown into a rage that runs the entire gamut of emotions, love, jealousy, hate, disappointment and a few others, too numerous to mention here. He begs forgiveness, declaring undying love, but she tells him it is the gown that has attracted him and not her, but on his knees he swears. Still she will not trust him and turns to a poor good-hearted Italian who has persistently loved her despite her coldness. Enrico, a poor street singer, forsakes his sweetheart, Veronica, when he meets a fashionably-dressed young woman. A rich couple takes pity on the shabbily-dressed Veronica, and buys her a new gown. At a dance, Enrico sees Veronica in her new dress and tries to win her back.

After fighting a long legal battle on her behalf, Jessica has just successfully returned her 92-year-old mother back home to their decaying apartment on Christopher Street. The homecoming victory is short-lived, however: the duo immediately lock into old, acerbic, high-volume patterns - alternating inspired cabaret duets with down-the-rabbit-hole screaming matches about hypothetical end days scenarios - as they try to sort out who has hurt whom, and how. Shot over the course of a year solely by the director, Vanessa Stockley, and scored by Ruth and Jessica's own Frank Sinatra covers, The Genius and the Opera Singer is a starkly observed, warts-and-all glimpse into, as Joan Didion keenly put it, the stories we tell ourselves in order to live.
16161 ::: Southern Italy (1916) ::: documentary ::: Justine Shapiro begins her journey in Rome, the capital of Italy and the gateway to the south.

At its heart is St Peter's Square and Basilica which was designed by Michelangelo in the 16th century.<p> Leaving Rome, Justine catches a train south towards Naples, stopping first at Terracina and the hill town village of Bonito. Terracina is a fishing village and Justine arrives for the festival of the Madonna del Carmine. Every year the local fishermen and clergy and their families lead a procession in honor of those who have lost their lives at sea and to bless the waters for the coming year. In Bonito, Justine visits an old man, known locally as Uncle Vincent. He is famous for performing miracles, and people visit him to talk about their problems. Until she actually sees him, however, Justine is unaware that Uncle Vincent is actually a corpse found in the remains of Bonito Church 100 years ago! Two hours by bus south of Bonito is Naples. Justine tries real Neapolitan pizza. Less than an hour's train ride from Naples is Pompeii - a bustling wealthy port until August 79 AD when Mt Vesuvius erupted, covering the town in lava, ash and pumice stone. Justine walks around the excavated frescoes.<p> From Pompeii, Justine carries on south along the beautiful Amalfi Coast to the picturesque town of Positano. Heading inland from the coast she takes a bus to Alberobello, a town best known for its rustic conical shaped homes called trulli.

In the situation of "diva inflation" who needs Rock and Roll? Petar B.

Sadly, what awaits her there is a farce of a happy family, a strenuous generation gap, lonely outings with her bicycle and an awkward and clumsy transcendental stage between a girl's puberty and a young woman's adolescence. Nevertheless, as if by instinct, Alice the unripe explorer of her budding sexuality, she will find herself infatuated with Jim, a masculine pouting workman in her father's saw mill, dabbling in desire and the art of desirability, self-exploration and autoeroticism as an antidote to boredom.

16191 ::: Sixteen Decisions (2000) ::: documentary ::: WE meet Selina 18, and mother of two children; Dr. Muhammad Yunus, the founder of Grameen Bank; and Gayle Ferraro, filmmaker. Their combined presence and voices articulate, interact, and develop a powerful and profound story, revealing a reality of past and present pain, uplifting goals, and the need for resources to move forward. Self-empowering structures such as the '16 decisions' demonstrate the challenge to traditional social roles and values, which undermine women's progress. Overarching anthropological questions are raised as they transition from a barter to a cash economy. While covering these important and meaningful topical issues, the real power of "Sixteen Decisions'" is in the depiction of Selina's everyday life. Selina, 18, is like most rural Bangladeshi housewives. She was a child laborer at 7 because her parents were too poor to feed her. Her parents arranged her marriage at 12 and sold their land for dowry, leaving themselves as beggars when her father lost his eyesight. Selina's family is not unique. As Dr. Yunus says in the film, "dowry is a killer in Bangladesh," as families sell their meager possessions to raise money for a dowry. Weaving in and out of the past, present and future we learn that with a $60 loan Selina has a rickshaw business-and hopes. As we experience Selina's everyday life, with its seemingly endless drudgery, she reflects on key issues such as dowry, birth control, education, and housing. Selina relates the path her life has taken what she hopes to learn and provide for her two young children. A counter point to Selina's life, which provides rich visual imagery, Dr. Yunus, founder and president of the 22-year old Grameen Bank, provides the objective reality of dealing with economically oppressive conditions found in developing countries. With the experience of loaning $2.3B to 10 million women, the banker acts as annotator for the film describing the need, evolution, impact and hope for women and society through the '16 decisions.' Producer, Gayle Ferraro, gives the audience the benefit of her experience with the women. She offers reflection and clarification to provide an engaging context for western viewers with a culture that can feel antiquated and obtuse in its harsh shrouds. The film shows the effects of a society that practically considers women as property and forbids them to speak or move their bodies in public. Using the courage the women show even leaving their houses, Ferraro builds the story to subtly suggest the viewer look more deeply at their own unexamined views and find meaningful challenges in their lives as well. With Selina and the women of Bangladesh as inspiration, it isn't hard to do.

More than 200,000 kids appeared live on the show during its run throughout the 1950s, 60s and 70s. The 3-hour show offered music, games, cartoons and life-learning lessons. This meticulously constructed documentary is a treasure of salvaged footage, including a 1952 kinescope, found on Ebay from Rex's early days at WPTZ in Philadelphia. While 'Boomtown' aired live every Saturday and Sunday, it was uncommon and expensive to record each show to videotape but the few that survived are classic eye-candy entertainment. The film is told through the memories of more than 100 grown-up kids who were interviewed from Boston to California. Television stars Jay Leno, Tom Bergeron, Mike O'Malley, comedians Steven Wright, Lenny Clarke, Jimmy Tingle, and Boston mayor Tom Menino are just some of the more celebrated figures who share their childhood passion for this real life cowboy and broadcast pioneer.

16197 ::: Crossing the Line: The Intifada Comes to Campus (2010) ::: short ::: Crossing the Line: The Intifada Comes to Campus explores the proliferation of anti-Israel and anti-Semitic incidents on North American college campuses. In particular, the film explores the rapid growth of such incidents following the launch of Operation Cast Lead by Israel's military into Gaza in late December 2008 and January 2009. The documentary demonstrates the blurring of anti-Israel and anti-Semitic lines, showing how the War evoked deep anti-Jewish sentiments amongst college students and professors. The film explores the context of these hostilities, by demonstrating the financial ties between Middle Eastern Studies departments and Arab states; the often biased and Pro-Palestinian education received by students in college classes; and the historical connection between the Muslim Student Association and the Muslim Brotherhood. Interspersed with accounts from Jewish Students and campus professionals, the film offers a glimpse into the experiences of Jewish college students who are actively involved in the daily struggle of supporting the State of Israel and fighting against biased misinformation both in and out of the classroom.

Historians ground us in the facts and comment on the significant moments that form the 'signposts' on Canada's journey. The richness of this documentary lies in the stories of the characters whose courage, vision and faith shaped our country along the way. Shot in HD utilizing the RED camera, the rugged and pristine beauty of the land from coast to coast infuses this film with stunning and memorable images that are a perfect match to the sweeping narrative of Canada's history. Who was here first? In this first segment, we will explore pre-colonization, the aboriginal peoples who made their home in Canada and the early exploration and colonization by French and English up to the mid 1700's. The very name of this country was the French interpretation of "Kanata" - the Huron-Iroquois word for "village". Where do we come from? If Canada was thoroughly French in 1760 - how did it become demonstrably English over the next century? From the very beginning, the formation of what would become the nation of Canada involved negotiation and compromise between the French, English and First Nations Peoples. What is unique about Canada? At Confederation, our Founding Fathers agreed to call the nation the "Dominion of Canada" based on Psalm 72:8. From this verse we also draw our nation's motto "A Mari usque ad Mare" - from sea to sea. Good government and the heritage of free education sprung from an awakening of faith that encompassed all aspects of society. What rights do Canadians hold? We are the envy of the world because of the freedoms in this land - freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom of healthcare and education, etc. The roots of our human freedoms grew out of an understanding of freedom and equality granted by God. Heroes such as Josiah Henson, an escaped slave who became a conductor in the Underground Railway, and Nelly McClung, who was a dynamic force who pressed to give women the vote, will be featured. Who are our heroes? In this segment, we will highlight the unique role played by a Baptist Minister, Tommy Douglas, who was instrumental in making healthcare and old age security freely available to all the citizens of this country. Where are we going? Will our values, our achievements, our faith-rooted distinctives survive? Our rich diversity is a result of being a country of immigrants and First Nations Peoples struggling to succeed on this vast Northern landscape. Our multiculturalism is a unique experiment unprecedented in the world.

16264 ::: The Fog of Srebrenica (2015) ::: documentary ::: This is the story of survivors of the Srebrenica genocide, the only holocaust in Europe since WWII. 8,372 Bosnian men and boys were killed in one week.Heartbreaking and mind blowing testimonials - the story told by survivors, contrasted by hauntingly beautiful landscapes and horrifying archive. The film portrays extraordinary characters, people who have been struggling to come to terms with the past as well as dealing with the harsh realities of living in one of the poorest countries in Europe. Their stories raise serious and profound questions about the nature of human existence, war and forgiveness. What happens to you when you live in a society riven by civil war, when you're forced to entertain the inconceivable thought that your neighbors are out to kill you? Hatidza, one of the mothers of Srebrenica, sums up this sense of disillusionment: "Because of what happened in World War II, we thought people must have been uncivilized back then. We thought civilization had progressed and that we understood each other now." And the disillusionment was followed by fear. Survivors of the 1995 siege of Srebrenica talk about the events leading up to the mass murder of 8,372 Bosnian men. Women and children were carried off in buses, and along the way they saw "their" men, half-naked on a soccer field. One of the girls was the then-13-year-old Zinahida. She thought they were being driven to her deaths while the men played soccer. The Fog of Srebrenica presents interviews that are structured in chapters, each of which handles a new phase of this atrocity: the chaos and desperation, the starvation, the severely weakened Bosnian militias marching through the woods - a hellish ordeal that few survived. The sometimes-shocking images of the past drag up the horrors of a nightmare that just won't end. WINNER THE IDFA SPECIAL JURY AWARD 2015

16266 ::: Through Leviathan's Eyes (2017) ::: short ::: We live in a time where cultural ideologies, aspirations and fears are as diverse and dynamic as ever. And yet, our world views are becoming increasingly singular, extreme, and sadly - polarised. Our media echo-chambers feed us personalised, self-affirming realities that keep us well within the boundaries of our own predispositions and assumptions. But what if the technologies that currently blind us, could somehow bind us together? 'Through Leviathan's Eyes' is an optimistic, speculative glimpse into a world where reality is constructed collaboratively. The film is a non-narrative tour through a near-future condition of 'cityness' imagining a rewriting of technological priorities; turning the blinding drive for personalised reality into a truly mixed reality. Here, the unstable, ever-shifting, yet somehow intelligent collective compose space in a constant state of re-writing and over-writing, that every so often, coalesces into an urgent, moving obsession. The city renders itself as a tangible, augmented palimpsest. A cultural manifestation of Hobbes' Leviathan.

16268 ::: Here Be Dragons (2013) ::: documentary ::: Filmmaker Mark Cousins goes to Albania for five days, and films what he sees. He discovers that the movie prints in the country's film archive are decaying. In investigating this, Cousins begins to encounter bigger questions about the history and memory of a place. Perhaps a country whose 20th Century, dominated by its authoritarian ruler Enver Hoxha, was so traumatic, should allow its film heritage to fade away? Perhaps a national forgetting should be welcomed? Influenced by the films of Chris Marker, Cousins' film broadens to consider the architecture of dictators and the great icon paintings of Onufri. In the past, when cartographers knew little about a country, they wrote on it Here be Dragons. Albania was, for decades, one of the least well know countries in the world. Cousins' road movie meditation takes the advice of Goethe: "If you would understand the poet, you must go to the poet's land."

16454 ::: The New Orleans Tea Party (2009) ::: documentary ::: Post-Katrina New Orleans oscillates between recovery and rebuilding, a fascinating process that our documentary captures over the course of two years (2006-2008). Despite, or maybe because of the incompetent response of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the disheartening reluctance of all levels of government to effectively engage in the rebuilding process, New Orleanians have turned to each other for material and moral support. At the same time, volunteers from all over the nation have become the muscle for new and established grassroots organizations, setting up food banks, providing medical care, gutting homes, and rebuilding schools and public libraries. Our documentary follows these events, takes stock of the loss that defines the "storm generation," and features interviews with "third responders," who dedicate themselves to rebuilding morale among those dispirited by the slowness of recovery. We meet the leaders of neighborhood associations galvanized by the haphazard governmental response. We visit alternative housing projects such as the Musicians' Village founded by Harry Connick, Jr. and Branford Marsalis (Habitat for Humanity) and Brad Pitt's "Make It Right Project" and learn about the importance of indigenous cultures for the revival of neighborhood communities and the healing of the city as a whole. In short, in a series of interviews, our documentary chronicles the achievements of both the local residents and the millions of volunteers streaming to the region from all over the nation, while exploring the limitations and fragility of a recovery process built upon the shoulders of individuals operating almost entirely without government support. Throughout, the film thus examines larger themes relevant to American society today, culminating in a final discussion of American citizens' vision of and trust in democratic processes.

In it, John describes his vision of Heaven: And behold, a throne was set in Heaven, and one sat on the throne, and out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices. And there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind. And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle. And I saw in the right hand of Him that sat on the throne a book that was sealed with seven seals. Neither Gaius, nor the other adult believers, understand what John means by this. Only a little child among them, also named John, grasps the sense of it: John realizes that the throne belongs to God, and sees the seven lamps of fire as the seven Christian communities of Asia Minor, together with the four elements and the book of seals with the mystery of faith that brings salvation. Yet the letter's mysterious origins make Gaius skeptical. He is only prepared to believe in the integrity of this vision, if John really is still alive. Old Theophilus, who in reality is John himself, has been sent to the prison island of Patmos, ruled by the corrupt Roman official Corvus, as a scribe, while the other prisoners have to do hard labor in the mines. Many of them hate Theophilus (John) because of the special treatment he is receiving, but above all, because he is a Christian. Nevertheless, he does succeed in converting some of his fellow prisoners to Christianity, such as the young scribe Demetrius, who is planning to escape along a secret tunnel. When the shaken John tells his companions about the crucifixion of the Savior, they realize that he was there at the time, and is actually John. He falls into a trance and experiences a new vision of Heaven: And one of the elders said unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof. And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes. And he came and took the book. And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. Meanwhile, in Smyrna, the young Irene has taken her leave of Valerius, whom she loves with a pure heart. She does not realize that he is not a Christian at all, but a spy working for the notoriously brutal Roman general Rufus, who has been ordered by Domitian to persecute Christians in Asia Minor. Valerius is a Roman soldier, born as a slave, he has his foster-father Rufus to thank for everything he has now become. He therefore has to obey when Rufus sends him to Patmos. Disguised as a prisoner, Valerius is told to find out whether John is still alive, because there are incessant rumors that he is, and they are leading to unwelcome solidarity among the Christians. Meanwhile Irene, with the help of her brother Jonicus, who visits Patmos regularly as a trader, gains access to the prison camp there. She recognizes Valerius from a distance and gets very worried about him. She embarked on all these dangers for the sake of John. However, her greatest desire is to see the last living Apostle, and to tell everyone about him. John trusts her, and confides in her under the seal of secrecy. She receives his visions in written form and promises to circulate the text among the Christians. Meanwhile on Patmos, Valerius tries to gain the trust of the Christian prisoners by defending the old Sostenes against the guards and suffering severe punishment as a result. Bound to a cross, he is left in the burning sunshine, but John is the only one who dares give him any water. And to Valerius' great surprise, he seems to know all about him and Rufus. In the hell of the prison camp, where violence and resentment reign, John often wonders about his mission: why has the Lord trapped him on this island, instead of sending him out into the world to spread the glad tidings? Then, surrounded by his companions, he falls into a trance, and again he sees himself in Heaven, with the Lamb on the throne. It is being threatened by a heavily armed knight on a red horse who is bringing hatred and war to humanity. Then a black horse appears whose rider is holding a pair of scales: he is the bringer of injustice and selfishness. Meanwhile, Rufus has ordered the island's governor Corvus to come and see him to tell him to show more severity, especially toward the Christians. Corvus is worried about losing his lucrative job, and so he tells his guards to be even more watchful than before. As a result, he notices that Irene has slipped into the camp again with Jonicus, to collect John's latest message. However, Jonicus cleverly manages to talk the guards out of searching either himself or his sister. John's visions become increasingly frequent and exhaust his strength. Nevertheless, Demetrius is still hoping to be able to get him off the island. The tunnel is ready, and the escape is planned for that evening. But when John supports the maltreated Sostenes, he incurs the wrath of the governor. He is imprisoned and the escape plans are scrapped. In his prison cell, John has a new vision: the Lamb breaks the fourth seal and again a horse appears, the pale horse that brings death into the world, plagues and famines, accidents and earthquakes. Only the love of God can defeat it. That night, numerous prisoners want to use the tunnel to escape, but it is discovered by the guards, and the fugitives are slaughtered. For Demetrius, all hope of rescue has now vanished. But John consoles him, telling him that it is God's will that they remain here on the island. Blessed are the poor, for theirs is the kingdom of Heaven, Jesus announces to him in the vision. And then he sees a huge number of people in Heaven: They called in a loud voice: Salvation cometh from our God. The Christians of Asia Minor, all in very great danger, cling to this belief, for the Romans are murdering them all, women and men, young and old alike. Irene and Ionicus put their lives into very great danger and, with the help of a guard, manage to free John and the other Christians from the camp, the Roman spy Valerius among them. A ship is waiting at the harbor. But John is too old and weak to shake off the guards pursuing them. He takes his leave of his companions and hides in a cave together with Valerius, who is transformed by the old man's influence, and becomes his helper. In the cave, John goes into a prophetic trance and has his last vision: And when the Lamb had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven. And I saw the seven angels which stood before God, and to them were given seven trumpets. When the angels blew one after the other into the trumpets, hail, fire, and locusts destroyed the Earth, the sea turned to blood, darkness covered the Earth and the Day of Judgment arrived. And I saw a new heaven and a new Earth, and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain. Meanwhile Irene, Jonicus and Demetrius are arrested by Corvus and his men, and Valerius and John are found in their cave, their lives are forfeited. But at this point, Rufus arrives, and not only frees his foster son Valerius, but also the other captive Christians. It turns out that the Emperor Domitian is dead, and his successor has announced an amnesty. The persecution of the Christians is over. John, his companions, and the Christian communities all thank God for their salvation. Freed from his duty toward his foster-father, Valerius is finally free to embrace his beloved Irene.

It is meant to expose the system that treats children differently across this country and the world: a system that needs to change. We should all be looking at and working for one thing, getting equal rights for our children. It should not matter if a child is born out of wedlock. It's not the child's fault, and that child should have the same rights as a child from a happily married couple. Stop the fighting over who gets custody and what he/she receives for the privilege of raising that child. The system that all of us face as parents, and/or grandparents is broken. No matter if you are mother, father, or grandparent, we all must acknowledge this basic fact. Thousands of emails have been received over the past year about this project asking for help, or parents telling their own horror stories with the system. One major problem is that fathers, mothers, and grandparents all seem to be fighting for their own rights. We should all be able to come together and fight for our children's rights. The right to be treated equally, no matter if their parents are married, were married, or never married. If that goal is obtained, then a lot of the problems in the system will go away. This movie was made to bring attention to and educate the public about a corrupt system that is not taking care of the future: making sure children are well taken care of

As a matter of fact, after the summer holidays, just few old people and some families keep living in the stone houses and, in the winter, when the level of the snow is high, being cut off is very frequent. Therefore the secular churches get more and more empty, the alleys and the roads get deserted, the pastures and the valleys get silent.

16750 ::: Max Frisch, citoyen (2008) ::: documentary ::: After Friedrich Dürrenmatt and Niklaus Meienberg died, Max Frisch was the last of the big Swiss intellectuals actively pursuing this role and being perceived as such by those around him, both in Switzerland and abroad. Since his death in 1991, no other voices have emerged to replace him. On the contrary: in Switzerland, as in other countries, writers and thinkers have ceased to be a major influence on social issues and processes. Thus, the question arises whether their contribution is needed at all. The film "The Voice of Max Frisch" tells Frisch's story as a "voice", explaining how his active contribution to society developed and how this became an integral part of his entire life. While Frisch focuses on his personal situation, his perspective also reflects the history of the 20th century as a whole, which he experienced mostly in Switzerland and Germany and which he witnessed almost from the beginning to the end. Max Frisch's view, therefore, is a record of our most recent history, on which today's world is built. The substance of the film is taken from Frisch's own texts covering his entire career including his earliest works. They evolve into some form of lifetime account in the author's own words: from his initial astonishment in view of the world to the horror of war, from his "awakening" to the way he began to make his voice heard in public - which he continued to do until he died. Archive material of the times and events referred to by Frisch illustrate the author's accounts, amalgamating into his "personal" history of the 20th century. There is also footage of Max Frisch himself as well as current images, illustrating that Frisch's texts are no less topical today. In order to complement and contrast the Frisch perspective, fellow writers of the time provide their views, e.g. Peter Bichsel, Günter Grass, Christa Wolf, as well as several renowned politicians who knew Frisch personally, e.g. Helmut Schmidt and Henry Kissinger. Finally, some of the author's close friends round off the film, bringing the writer's aura back to life. The interaction between the various aspects presented make it possible to follow Frisch's footsteps closely and intensively. And the key question - valid well beyond Max Frisch and Switzerland - keeps cropping up again: What role should intellectuals play in society? And why is it that the big thinkers keep so quiet today?

Corral and the Crucifixion of Jesus).

16978 ::: Beauty for Ashes (????) ::: history ::: On April 19, 1995, the United States of America was changed forever when Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols bombed the Alfred P. Murrah Building in downtown Oklahoma City. This attack is commonly known as "The Oklahoma City Bombing." 168 people were killed including 19 children. Beauty for Ashes is a feature film that explores the personal journeys of parents, firefighters and medical workers whose lives were sewn together as they battled grief and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and as they unexpectedly discovered the power that was within them to turn their tragedies into triumphs. THE STORIES Aren Almon Kok - Aren Almon Kok's daughter, Baylee, was in the daycare on the second floor of the Alfred P. Murrah Building and was one of 19 children who were murdered that day. A photo of Captain Chris Fields holding Baylee amidst the rubble became the most iconic photo of the tragedy, but its widespread dissemination also traumatized Aren. Inspired by the high number of glass-related injuries among the bombing victims, Aren later became the spokesperson for The Protecting People First Foundation and led an effort to pass congressional bill number HR 4159, or "Baylee's Law" to ensure a standard of glass protection in public buildings. Captain Chris Fields - As the fires raged, rescue services and bystanders rushed to pull victims out of the twisted wreckage. Sifting through the rubble, Police Officer John Avera found a small half-buried body. Shouting that he has a critical infant, Officer Avera thrust the one year-old Baylee Almon into the arms of nearby Oklahoma City Firefighter, Captain Chris Fields. As Chris checked Baylee for signs of life, two amateur photographers both raised their cameras. Lester LaRue and Charles Porter standing just three feet apart, yet unaware of each other, snapped the image that came to symbolize the victims of the Oklahoma City Bombing (famouspictures.org). While the public lauded Chris as a hero, he privately fought bouts of depression and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder while struggling with guilt for "not being able to save more people." Daina Bradley - Daina Bradley was in the Social Security Office with her mother, sister, daughter and son. While filling out paperwork, Daina people-watched through the office's large glass window. She noticed a man illegally park a Ryder moving truck next to the Murrah Building. Unbeknownst to Daina at the time, the man was Timothy McVeigh, and he had lit a fuse to ignite the devastating bomb before he calmly strolled across the street. The bomb killed each of Daina's family members except for her sister who suffered brain damage and the loss of an ear. Trapped in the rubble and facing the threat of hypothermia as cold water from busted pipes surrounded her, Daina could only be rescued from the bombing rubble by having her right leg amputated on the scene. Daina would later bravely serve as a key witness during the McVeigh trial revealing what she saw through the window on that fateful day. Dr. Raymund King - Dr. Raymund King was a Chief Resident Surgeon at the Oklahoma University Health Sciences Center formerly known as the Oklahoma Memorial Hospital. Raymund treated victims of the Oklahoma City Bombing in 1995. The hospital was only six blocks away from ground zero, and it issued a code black calling for all medical staff to receive patients in the Emergency Room. Raymund personally witnessed the deaths of 17 victims on that tragic day and subsequently suffered from repressed memories.

16983 ::: The Group Theater, 1931-1940 (1967) ::: talk-show ::: Three distinguished theater producer-directors recapture the heady days of the famous Group Theater and discuss its origins, successes, failures, and eventual decline. Harold Clurman, Lee Strasberg and Bobby Lewis - all actively involved in American theater production, as well as criticism and history - were among the young pioneers who gave life to one of the country's great experiments in the theater during the 1930s. Clurman and Strasberg, with Cheryl Crawford, were the Group's original founders. Many photographs from the period recall their efforts and collaborators, which included Elia Kazan, Stella Adler, Clifford Odets, Franchot Tone and John Garfield. The Group Theater was active from 1931 to 1940. It came in with the Depression and went out with the World War. It was intended as a forum for plays that would make a political difference in a world that seemed to be sliding backwards. It was intended as a new start in the choosing, casting and presentation of plays. It was a way of exploring acting techniques and of forging a cohesive group of talent that would work together and stay together. And it was intended to be socially conscious and have an effect on American society. To some extent it achieved all these aims. But as Mr. Clurman points out at the end of this vital discussion, its also labored against itself by not having a thoroughly thought out program and the finances to keep it going. Among the Group Theater's most memorable successes were "Awake and Sing" (1935), "Waiting for Lefty" (1935), "Johnny Johnson" (1936), "Golden Boy" (1937), and "My Heart's in the Highlands" (1937). The Group Theater was the first to present the work of Clifford Odets and Marc Blitzstein. Mr. Clurman has written about The Group Theater in his book "The Fervent Years."

Emden spent the majority of her career overseas in the German East Asia Squadron, based in Tsingtao, China. In 1913, she came under the command of Karl von Müller, who would captain the ship during her career in World War I. At the outbreak of hostilities, Emden captured a Russian steamer and converted her into the commerce raider Cormoran. Emden rejoined the East Asia Squadron, after which she was detached for independent raiding in the Indian Ocean. The cruiser spent nearly two months operating in the region, and captured nearly two dozen ships. Müller took Emden to raid the Cocos Islands, where he landed a contingent of sailors to destroy British facilities. There, Emden was attacked by the Australian cruiser HMAS Sydney. The more powerful Australian ship quickly inflicted serious damage and forced Müller to run his ship aground to prevent her from sinking. Out of a crew of 376, 133 were killed in the battle.

They wonder if he will ever come. The reunion of these five friends, the absences, the joys and the pains are shared by all at the peak of tension. The film within a film reveals itself. The main purpose of the film is to probe deeply into human complexities. To expose each of the actors through an alteration of their emotional states: the web of subtle, emotional relationships among individuals in a group of very close friends. The recording of this radical encounter also brings back memories of a generation who is presently in their forties. Born after the military putsch, this generation experienced their childhood right through a dictatorial regime, a masked dictatorship though, fed by the support by from the medium class, in times where what was really happening was not supposed to be revealed; in short, a generation who lived inside a bubble, with no political education and no rights to their own biography. A generation that believed what was said in soap operas and TV commercials and raised themselves with little freedom of learning and thinking. Daily exposed to the mediocrity of media products imported from the USA, the children of the Brazilian dictatorship very often had politically engaged parents who passed to military grandparents the responsibility of their upbringing and education. Today, fully conscious of this situation, this generation exposes itself with braveness and anguish. The film breaks the limit between fiction and reality. 5 actors meet on Xmas' Eve to make a film. While waiting for an unknown guest, they reveal secrets and life stories. Joy, frustration, absence and passion emerge to the edge of tension.

They reside in a region of the world plagued by ancient hostilities, jealousy of the land which three religions and many cultures hold sacred, and violence instigated by militaristic extremists. Yet even at the risk of their own lives, these Israelis and Palestinians have succeeded - each in his or her own way - in fostering harmonious relations. They have "made it possible" to mend the raveled fabric of Israeli-Palestinian life. The Peacemakers are: Nafez Assaily, a Palestinian Muslim pacifist who co-founded the Palestinian Center for the Study of Non-violence and who now directs the Library on Wheels for Non-violence and Peace; Rabbi Menachem Fruman, a founder of the Gush Emunim religious settler movement, who has been dialoguing with Hamas activists and other orthodox Muslims; Father Bruno Hussar, a Dominican priest who is founder and scion of Neve Shalom / Wahat Al Salaam, a Jewish-Arab village with a fully integrated, tri-lingual primary school and an internationally recognized School for Peace; Nabila Espanioly and Hannah Safran, a dual portrait of a Palestinian woman and an Israeli woman who have built a close friendship through their work in womens' advocacy groups. These individuals span the political spectrum. They do not fit into any facile political or religious categories. They are unique. Their uniqueness and their originality are what give their work its clarity and strength.

17321 ::: Left Behind: The Story of the New Orleans Public Schools (2008) ::: documentary ::: Our core story follows three students from August 2004 to June 2005. From the state-mandated LEAP test to Mardi Gras marching bands. From birthdays to basketball practice. From family functions to random shootings to school riots. We see New Orleans and the New Orleans public schools in their entirety. We hear our protagonist's hopes and dreams and aspirations as we pan the "mean streets" that surround them. The visuals are enough to make us feel uneasy . . . to make us fear the fate that awaits them. "What happens to us all when a dream is deferred?" Yet there is also a feeling of hope, the hope of the young, as infectious as it is potentially heart-breaking. We hope for Mario, Jonathan and Joshua . . . and, in doing so, we hope for ourselves. As the film unfolds, we are confronted with the various problems that contribute to the current state of affairs in the school system. Race, violence, poverty, dysfunctional families, politics -- and we begin to form the question: How did we get this way? How did we allow this to happen to our families, our schools, our cities, our very society? How did we allow ourselves to leave so many children behind? At first blush, the answer is a historical one, for New Orleans is a city steeped in history. A history of racism and class and corruption; a history of slave trade and king cotton and Baton Rouge kleptocracies. A history where "who you know" has always been more important than merit. Certainly there is enough in our history to give us our answer. But this is the easy way out, and as we delve deeper we find that our answers lie with in our culture. It lies within the political/social environment in which we live. In this film we confront problems that gnaw, not just at the core of New Orleans, but at the core of America.

In this way, pain actually protects us, by functioning as a very effective warning signal.

Farming the fields above the Sacred Valley in southern Peru is all the indigenous people of Mullacas know - that and the taste of the local fermented corn beverage, chicha. Though theirs appears at first glance to be a peaceful life, isolation and lack of schooling have given rise to feelings of social inequality and an increase in alcoholism. So while he values the beauty of their surroundings, Feliciano wants his son, as his father wanted him, to move to the city so he can get an education and have a better life. Marking director Jason Burlage's feature debut, this moving documentary chronicles the young family's struggles through the planting season and Feliciano's more lucrative work as a porter along the Incan trails to Machu Picchu. These days, only a small percentage of indigenous Peruvians farm, as one in three members of the population now lives in Lima -sixty percent of whose residents occupy the slums. Yet among mountain communities, the belief that life is better in the city is widely held - and thus the traditions of "planting according to the stars," as their fathers and their fathers' fathers taught them, are slowly disappearing. The crucial practice known as ayni, for instance, or communal reciprocity in the form of such acts as plowing one another's fields, is being lost. Through such unsettling details, Burlage paints a vivid portrait of the complexities facing the future of rural communities throughout Peru.

The weather on the Azores is so unpredictable, they say you can experience four different seasons in one day. The myths and legends surrounding these magical isles date all the way back to Plato's story of the lost continent of Atlantis. The most visible landmark is the 10,000 ft. Pico, Portugal's highest mountain, eternally enveloped in clouds. Above and below water, a unique flora and fauna have emerged on the Azores, including the rarest bird in Europe, the Azores oriole, and 80-ft. long fin whales, which hunt giant sardine schools, in concert with birds and dolphins. Humpback whales come to the fish-rich waters to breed and raise their young, as do the dolphins. And the underwater volcanoes continue on land in the form of huge craters and steaming geysers. An amazing island paradise between the continents.

While repeated efforts are made to approach the fast diving fin whales in the rough open sea, they come across a bait-ball where hundreds of dolphins work in sync with thousands of birds to hunt down a large shoal of sardines. Just as the water starts cooking in a feeding frenzy a fin whale surfaces to join the feast.

17692 ::: The Joy of the Bee Gees (2014) ::: documentary ::: Guilty pleasure or genius, misfits or mavericks, noble or naff - how do we really feel about the Bee Gees? Are the brothers Gibb a cacophony of falsettos or songwriting maestros, the soundtrack to every office party or masters of melancholy and existential rage? Are they comedy or Tragedy? How deep is our love and how deep are the Bee Gees? With a back catalogue that includes hits like How Do You Mend a Broken Heart, Massachusetts, Islands in the Stream, Stayin' Alive, Chain Reaction, How Deep Is Your Love, Gotta Get a Message to You, Words, To Love Somebody and Night Fever, the Bee Gees are second only to the Beatles in the 20th-century songwriting pantheon, but while their pop success spans several decades, there are different Bee Gees in different eras. Is there a central glue that unites the brothers and their music and, if so, what is it? The Joy of the Bee Gees features a rare interview with the last remaining Bee Gee brother, Barry Gibb, many of those musicians and industry figures who have worked with them closely over the years, and a surprising cast of Bee Gees aficionados including John Lydon, Ana Matronic, Guy Chambers, Mykaell Riley and Alexis Petridis, who together share their stories and their insights into the band whose music and image moved us in the 60s and defined pop culture in the mid-to-late 1970s. The film explores how the band were iconoclasts and outsiders, brothers in the family business, who worked best when together but who grew up and played out their fraternal struggles in public. The brothers went from child stars on the Australian variety circuit to competitors with the Beatles in the UK charts in the late 60s, scoring number one hits while still only teenagers. In the mid-70s, the former 'beat group' reimagined themselves as a close-knit soul boy trio. The Saturday Night Fever album shot them to global superstardom and every radio station played a song written, produced or sung by the Bee Gees. The saturation of their music and their iconic 'medallion man' image would ultimately elbow them out of fashion, even make them figures of fun... But you can't keep a good band down and in the 80s they became writing guns-for-hire to stars such as Kenny & Dolly, Barbra Streisand and Diana Ross. 1987 saw the band come back yet again and hit the top of the charts. The deaths of Maurice and then Robin brought the Bee Gees' reign to an end, but Barry and their music live on. Let's enjoy finding out why and how: welcome to The Joy of the Bee Gees.

His vice Mayor and 24 villagers died in the devastating fires and he barely escaped with his life. The question is, will his plans to redevelop the area and his indifference to the rule of law, destroy what is left? A story of "disaster capitalism", ambition and graft; where greed and exploitation threaten to leave nothing but scorched earth for the community of Sugar Town. In director Kimon Tsakiris's 2006 documentary Sugartown: The Bridegrooms, he observed how, due to the lack of marriageable women, bachelors in the Russian city of Klin were going in search of a bride. The title of this, his latest documentary, suggests it is a sequel, but in fact it has an entirely different focus. In Sugartown: The Day After, Tsakiris examines the political aspects of the aftermath of the terrible fires on the Peloponnesian Peninsula in 2007. The fires caused the deaths of 65 people in the small town of Zacharo (loosely translated as "Sugartown" in English) and environs, and reduced 90% of the land to ashes. The dead are not yet buried when reconstruction begins. Donated emergency relief supplies pour in from home and abroad. Before long, the generous gifts disappear into a grab-bag of self-interest, thanks to local politicians. "Stealing will always be part of the Greek state," sighs one local. "Many people lost a lot, and many people will become better off." Tsakiris stayed in the area for a year and recorded how duped locals have no say against greedy, macho heavyweights. Chief among them is Mayor Pantazis Chronopoulos, who manipulates everything and everyone and likes to operate on the boundary between legality and illegality.

Anti-war protests soon spilled over into a more general rejection of the conservative values and institutions of 1960s New Zealand. Many young people set up their own communities where they could experiment with alternative lifestyles. Former radical and current Invercargill mayor Tim Shadbolt puts it, "We thought, right, let's go back to a primitive village lifestyle and see if we can evolve a different country altogether, where materialism isn't the main motivator for our communities". But youthful idealism soon comes up against the realities of making a living, getting along with one another and the hostility of conservative neighbours sceptical about the new arrivals' drug use and sexual behaviour. So what happened to the great hippy experiment? Director Salmon tracks down many of the former hippies to find out in this fascinating, funny and often poignant trip back to 1970s New Zealand.

Being virus-positive, he is obliged to live in the USA illegally. In fact, according to the law, he cannot even pay a visit to this country. At first Tom has a hard time eking out a living as an escort. Unable to earn enough money, he winds up on the streets without a roof over his head. In the end, he succeeds in helping Jeffrey Davis set up an internet page, rentboy.com, which, ten years later, becomes the largest website for escorts. Increasingly beset by health issues, loneliness and drug abuse, in 2006 Tom eventually finds someone with whom he can share his life. He and his African-American partner decide to go to Berlin. This marks Tomšs first trip to Germany in 15 years. A few days after their arrival, the Berlin Hustla Ball takes place.

Initially following Tom Weise as he organises the last of his parties in the US, the film then accompanies him as he returns to Berlin. Besides being a vibrant portrait, Hick's film is also a socio-cultural exploration of the New World and the old, as reflected in a marginalised group. His documentary also affords a fascinating insight into the universe and the minds of escorts and party-makers.

Did you ever wonder how Portland appeared on the map as THE epicenter for weird, alternative arts and culture - it was because of the X-Ray - a wholly singular all-ages venue with a true anything goes aesthetic--a punk band, a circus act, toddlers banging on things, and a man spanking volunteers might all appear on a single bill--and its presence in Old Town in the early 90's put Portland on the map as a radical, rock and roll kind of town.

Because Clementine, one of Santa's elves, helped save Christmas last year and has come up with unique solutions to other problems, Santa decides to issue another mission for her. Santa has several power stations around the world which he is required to use to power his sleigh on Christmas Eve. One of those, the Northern Lights Mountain Inn in Vermont, has recently changed hands with the now deceased longtime owner Grace deeding it to her niece, Mackenzie Warren. The Inn had slowly been declining as a viable beacon if only because of modern resorts becoming more of a public draw, with only Grace's Christmas Eve parties a seasonal staple in the town as the Inn slowly became more and more run down. Mackenzie spent every Christmas with her Aunt Grace at the Inn until she was seven, but had not seen her since, Mackenzie losing the Christmas spirit in the process. As Mackenzie is an estate appraiser, Santa is worried that Mackenzie will only see in the Inn what she can sell, including the property. Clementine's mission is not only to ensure that Mackenzie not only renovates and keep the Inn open, but that she regain her true spirit of life and Christmas in the process, the first step being to hold the Christmas Eve party. As an adult, Mackenzie has solely focused on work, treating it without sentiment as she climbs her way to the top. Clementine has some local known help in the process, including the Inn's two longtime staff, Wilson and Betty. But she gets some unwitting help in the form of Ian Hanover, a single father who is the unofficial handyman for the Inn and who views it as a special landmark for the town not to be destroyed, and Ian's adolescent daughter Jenny Hanover, who has as much the Christmas spirit as Mackenzie did when she was a child.

17804 ::: Lyrisch nitraat (1991) ::: documentary ::: This film is a compilation of scenes from silent films made between 1905 and 1915 that sat in storage in an Amsterdam cinema for many years. The title refers to the deteriorating nitrate film stock used in these films. Surviving very short film clips of the period 1905-1912 are loosely grouped together in subjects, and a few sequences wholly intact, working like one-act plays on love, loss, and death. The clips are introduced by title cards: BODY, various human forms; LOOKING, shots of people looking through telescopes or binoculars, and a montage of what they have seen; DRAMATIS PERSONAE, introductory shots of actors; CHILDREN shows babies and very young children crying, smiling, and playing; DEATH is the crucifixion and death of Christ in a religious film, partly tainted in yellow; GOODBYE is yet scenes from a religious film showing Adam and Eve on the Garden of Eden and the tempting Serpent, with the best on camera special effects (images juxtaposed). The last sequence has been all but obliterated by the decay of the film, but with the 1990 musical score now works as an abstract painting. Amidst these categorized sections, and with no obvious relation with them, there are some travel films, shots of a railway that runs on tracks over the cars, wide-open tracking shots of the cities, and a few group and face shots of Central African natives.

17807 ::: The Flat (2011) ::: documentary ::: When Arnon Goldfinger's grandmother dies in Tel Aviv, his whole family come around for the necessary disposition of her property. While dealing with all the stuff, Arnon makes a shocking discovery: evidence that his German Jewish grandparents had a long-lasting friendship with the senior Nazi SS officer, Leopold von Mildenstein, before and after World War II. His repulsion and confusion at how his beloved grandparents could have done that sends Arnon on an international search for the truth. In doing so, Arnon learns about a complex relationship, in which family, sentiment, history and human nature combine to produce a kind of denial in reaction to the worst of reality. German-Jew Gerda Tuchler has just passed away at the age of ninety-eight. Although she lived in the same Tel Aviv flat for most of her life with her long deceased husband Kurt Tuchler following the extradition of Jews from Germany in the 1930s, she was more emotionally German than Israeli as witnessed by the fact that she never learned how to speak Hebrew. One of her grandsons, 'Arnon Goldfinger' (qv), for his own historical record, decides to film the process of cleaning out Gerda's apartment, that process led by Gerda's daughter/Arnon's mother, 'Hannah Goldfinger' (qv). They all go into the process believing that beyond the painted portraits of Gerda and Kurt, there is little anyone would want to keep or that they would be able to sell among Gerda's possessions. However, they stumble across records that Gerda and Kurt were close friends with Leopold von Mildenstein, a high ranking Nazi official and mentor to 'Adolf Eichmann' (qv) in the 1930s, and his wife, Gerda von Mildenstein, that friendship which was established in Germany before their extradition, and continued even after the war. Arnon then decides to step in front of the camera as he begins to search for information on that friendship with Hannah, whose generation had a "put the past behind" mentality especially about the war and Jewish persecution by the Nazis. That search for information not only delves into the Tuchler side, but also the von Mildenstein side, discussion of Naziism with von Mildenstein's relations which may be a touchy subject. Their discoveries will include what happened to Hannah's maternal grandmother, Susanne Lehmann, which makes the Tuchler/von Mildenstein friendship all the more astounding.

17886 ::: Mouthpiece (????) ::: drama ::: This is a true story about the gritty underbelly of Atlanta in the 1970s. It's a story of love, betrayal, friendship and murder. The content of Mouthpiece is taken directly from newspaper articles, case files, court records and the personal accounts of a man that was "in the trenches" at the time. When Jack started in law school all he wanted was to defend people falsely accused of crimes. Then he began to see the much larger possibilities of working with people he knew were criminals. It's funny how things change. Thus begins Jack's journey as he builds his practice as a street lawyer. Sly Henritze is an older attorney whose experience and skills equate to light-years of wisdom. Sly tells Jack, "You need at least two things to practice my kind of law, a law degree and a criminal mind." An alliance is formed and Sly begins to introduce Jack to blue-chip criminals like Shannon Hatcher. Shannon's husband had two businesses, buying/selling earth moving equipment and killing people. One day her husband died and Shannon took over the businesses - both of them. Jack maintains a foothold in both Sly's world and the street world. Then Jack meets Alex, a highly successful madam. Alex is tough and smart with her set of rules and a special philosophy. Alex is looking for her first ol'man and "chooses" Jack. As is the custom Alex gives Jack money along with a warning, "It can become addictive. Once you get it in your blood, it can become a way of life." Jack also meets Niki, a fifteen year old Cajun streetwalker that turned herself out because "Sesame Street and Big Bird," were all just reruns. Jack invites his hooker clients to a little informal class, just some rudimentary law. "Hooker Law 101." His work with Sly begins to slip as he moves deeper into the life. Sly tells Jack, "I love my right hand. It has served me well all these years but if it places me in danger, I'll cut it off. If it comes down to my surviving or losing the hand, the hands gotta go." The question is, will Jack heed the warnings of everyone around him? It was an era, the seventies, disco reigned supreme. It was a time the notorious roamed Atlanta. It was a time of good cops and bad cops. A time of shoot-outs in Buckhead, bodies in the trunks of cars, ambushes on Riverside, porno wars, car bombings, and creative money laundering that set the standard. The elixir of the day: Jack Daniels, Quaaludes and Cocaine. It was a time before sex could kill you, and that fact was exploited to the fullest. For some, sex was a commodity - an article of commerce. A time of working girls ranging from streetwalkers to diamond girls to penthouse madams. Atlanta was a Mecca for hookers, homegrown and imported. The seemingly endless stream of working girls gave rise to the formation of the "Hooker Commission." The Commission was composed of working girls elected to office. The Commission dictated professional standards of conduct, assigned working areas, held hearings and enforced their edicts. The commission ruled with ruthless efficiency. Jack has a brilliant future as a criminal defense attorney. Alex is a highly successful madam nearing the end of her career. Niki has an uncertain future as a streetwalker. And they all cross paths somewhere in the middle of the "War Zone."

17899 ::: Crossroads in Nihonmachi: The Struggle of an American Community (2008) ::: documentary ::: In 1973, San Francisco's Japanese community was threatened with extinction. 'Crossroads In Nihonmachi' is the story of how one group of people - through their differences - were able to stop big business and a large bureaucracy from destroying one of the most important historical communities for Asian Americans. While the community had once stretched nearly 64 blocks in the Western Addition, our story begins when the final four blocks were destined for the wrecking ball. San Francisco, with its goals of becoming a world class city, was on a rampage to remake its communities, primarily low income communities, without participation from its residents and small businesses. As one of the first two cities to qualify for federal funding under the Housing Act of 1949, San Francisco steamrolled its ambitions with disregard for civil rights in the name of progress. In the Japanese community this translated to 1942 again when 120,000 Japanese were forcibly removed from the West Coast as World War II began. In 1962, the process of evictions began all over again as 3000 were removed from their homes and businesses. By 1973, when the community stood at four blocks, a coalition of citizens finally fought back to halt the community's demise. We then jump to 2006 on Japantown's 100th Anniversary. The threat re-emerges as an outside developer buys up 2/3 of the business properties. This time, the community is keenly aware yet threatened. While the faces are mostly Asian American, the story applies to any urban community. In 1973, San Francisco's Japanese community was threatened with extinction.

18205 ::: Borrando a papá (2014) ::: documentary ::: Six fathers in Argentina who are very different share one thing in common: they are prevented from seeing their children after divorce.

It does not matter if the mother prevents the father from seeing the children, or she lies or even tries to kill the children. Different professionals are interviewed and they happily admit that they do not care what the evidence shows, for them the most dangerous situation is for children to see their fathers, because they are men. The most influential psychologist in Argentina, Jorge Corsi, created a method that always finds fathers to be violent and abusive, that has no scientific validity.

18207 ::: Foreshadowing (2001) ::: short ::: High up on the wall, you see a small and very crisp image of roulette in action. The image is projected upon a two-way 45-degree slanted mirror, so that the viewer sees a dim reflection of himself and other viewers perpendicular to the pictorial plane on which the image of the roulette is projected. The roulette, constructed in 3dmax (a software for the construction of three dimensional scenes), is of spiral form, when it rotates it directs awareness towards its center (like a hypnosis apparatus) and puts the viewer in a position of expectation. For a roulette player, success is a personal "sign", an answer evoking a sense of empowerment. On the other hand, the result of each round rapidly flickers on the screen before the roulette stops. Hence a mechanism, which a priori is a chance or random device, becomes a deterministic machine. At the same time, the setting is meant to enhance the feeling of waiting anxiously that one experiences near a real roulette table. By excluding randomness, this sense of anticipation becomes isolated from its source. When standing in front of the work looking up at the image, the spectator's shadow appears on the floor in front of her. At some point, another shadow appears on the floor next to hers as if there were another spectator in the room standing beside her. Since the viewer is looking up at the roulette image, it takes time to realize that an extra shadow exists in the room. However, the movement of the shadow can be noticed in the mirror, creating an uncanny sensation, as if there were someone standing looking over your shoulder. If the roulette is a random device that draws the attention to its center, the shadow is a counter force, distracting the focused concentration.

Ede and her daughter Paola were sharing an extraordinary love. This movie shows this love in their village within family, friends, neighbors, bodies embracing, faces and hands talking. A testimony of what will remain, the immense joy of living and having loved. I am filming life since I am eleven years old, trying to hold it. *** Filming is for me very close to what Annie Ernaux says about writing, "To write is to pay attention in a different way to the others, places, time and oneself." It's what I call asylum, as shelter, refuge, and the fruits of this asylum are the rushes of what I film. Watching the world with my camera, detailing it carefully, patiently, listening to it, is a way to keep on learning, inventing, loving; an obsession to save the memory of what could be missing later.

The Alchemical Androgyne (the Hermaphrodite / Rebis), ever present character in my videos, embodies my search in the androgynization rites, in this case a rite performed by indigenous tribes where a man makes a cut in his crotch as a symbol to inhabit in a woman body, to live in the middle of two imposed sexes. A symbolic castration that I present as an invitation to "man" to reflect about his femininity. The other character is basically my way of using the right of rebellion through art, to criticize religion which seek to control the souls, current clinic aims to control the body (based not on health but disease) and The Armed Forces as the top of a pyramid that ends up collapsed. Videos featuring a struggle, feminism understood as a struggle, whatever the fight against laws (which have been created by men) is a feminist struggle.

18291 ::: Confession (1999) ::: drama ::: "Confession" is a 4-channel film. Fictitious and semi-abstract, this project is built on real and imaginary action - a young girl applying herself to the toughest layers of history she read or heard about. She is reminiscent of Alice in tragic Wonderland or of Shakespearean Ophelia with her longing for simplicity. Blurry monologue of the video is not meant to be spelled out, but rather states a very private nature of her "confession" without guilt. The focus of it is a young girl placing herself in different historical and geographical environments, traveling in her mind through different mise-en-scenes. She seems to meditate in the face of nature about life and death, faith and disbelief. She dives into the imaginary world of her own, in the world of memories inherited from stories told by her grandparents. Confession as a subject of study is necessary for humans to understand themselves. If confession does not serve to discover truth, it will, at the least, teach her fundamental rules of life. For the artist, there is a possibility of studying a pure event, no longer manipulated or interpreted by the historical subjectivity. Any superficial interpretation of habitual confession would drain the girl's visions. She turns to the beauty of the past, rediscovers that "history survives its disappearance" (Jean Baudrillard).

It was on this warm spring day that he met Jason, an average looking young man who's been living on the streets for weeks.

Jason had no idea free medical care was being offered just a block and a half away from where the two stood. Grateful that Ewell offered to help him, Jason grabbed his back pack and sorted though the sheets of poems he had handwritten when he came across one of his poems entitled "Wind & Fire".

18301 ::: The Forty-Niners (1932) ::: western ::: "Tennessee" Matthews is a trader dealing in buffalo hides at his post situated on the North Platte River at Fort Laramie, Wyoming. There Jed Hawkins and his daughter Virginia are waiting for an escort for their wagon trail headed for California. "Widow" Melindy Spriggs is also with the train and has intentions of trapping Hawkins as her next husband, although his disposition to drink is very trying to her 'dry' ways. "Squaw" O'Hara, called such because he has a habit of taking up with Indian women (which may well be very politically incorrect now, but writer F. McGrew Willis did not name his villain such with an eye on the PC world of the future, and revisionist film history will not intrude here) is hired as the train's scout. O'Hara is one bad character indeed and his real vocation is misguiding wagon trains into traps so they can be looted. At the present time, O'Hara has taken up with a beautiful Indian girl named Lola who lives in a hut where O'Hara makes frequent visits and stores the booty from the many caravans he has betrayed, and has full intentions of doing the same with the Hawkins train. He may only be visiting to check on the inventory, but the pre-code days implication is that he considers Lola as part of the inventory. He and Matthews both fall in love with Virginia, but it is plain to see she prefers Matthews. She even sends him a rose. This displeases O'Hara so much that he beats up Lola out of frustration, and Matthews comes to her aid. He puts an arm around her to comfort her and, of course, that is when Virginia rounds the corner and jumps to the conclusion that Matthews is a two-timer in buckskin.(Which in the real world he might have been since Lola is about three numbers higher on a politically incorrect scale of 1-10 than Virginia is, and Lola ain't no ten herself.) Virginia covers her heartbreak by encouraging O'Hara, which is somewhat akin to pouring coal-oil kerosene on a fire, as O'Hara is not a man who waits for any signs of encouragement anyway. Comes the dawn , O'Hara begins to lead the settlers west to California, but has already notified his Indian friends just where he will lead them for an easy attack. But Matthews has other plans. Earlier Gordon DeMain (as Hawkins) gets drunk and sings "Oh, Melindy" to the widow, which marks the only time DeMain sang in a western film and the only time Fern Emmett was serenaded in a film, western or otherwise.

18357 ::: False Dawn: The Promise of Apollo (2005) ::: documentary ::: 1960's America was deeply divided. The civil rights movement and severe poverty upset the established order. The Cuban Missile Crisis brought us to the brink of nuclear war, and the fear of Communism across the world swept through Middle America like wild fire, giving rise to the U.S. intervention in Vietnam. Then President Kennedy launched the inspirational race to the moon--a quest for mankind to conquer technological difficulties and explore space. The massive cost - at a time when millions of Americans lived below the poverty line - was justified to take the first step to meaningful exploration of space, understanding our universe and breaking free from our small but beautiful planet to live among the stars. The Apollo moon landings promised much, but ultimately amounted to a "false dawn." Recently released transcripts of White House meetings support the theory that the president only supported moon missions to detract attention from the escalating domestic and international situation and prove that Communism was inferior. In the first decade of the New Millennium, we have witnessed the tragedy of 9/11, the war on terrorism, multi-national forces in Iraq and Afghanistan in a deeply unpopular "occupation" and mounting tensions over Iran. And yet, in the midst of these developments, the U.S. Space Program has again been put at the forefront of the political agenda by President George W. Bush's "New Vision for Space"--advocating a return to the moon and beyond by 2010. But is this another "false dawn?" The debate starts here.

Our goal thereafter focused on collecting the greatest possible number of testimonies related to the history of Spanish anarcho-syndicalism. As part of the celebrations of 100 years of CNT we set up the project, the union decided to fund it and we set off . We travelled 12,000 km visiting three countries relying on the logistical support of CNT and selfless work of their members as well as partners Malicious Films GuerrillART. This is the result: -80 hours worth of records -300 hours worth of testimony in timing and transcription meant for reference purposes at the Anselmo Lorenzo Foundation -0 actors The National Confederation of labour achieved the 6 hour day in the Andalusian countryside back in 1936. Some years earlier CNT had also succeeded in implementing labour rights such as 40 hour labour week, setting of a retirement age, elimination of child labour and claimed the rights of female workers.

It is now time to give voice and power to disseminate their experiences: It is part of our history; still unknown to so many, and yet a part so important to be familiarized with now more than ever.

And yet we are beginning the 21st century with more questions than answers. Is all lost? And if not, what needs to be done?
18615 ::: Minginui (2004) ::: documentary ::: Built in the 40s to accommodate Forestry Department workers, the small town of Minginui in the North Island's Whirinaki Forest lost its sawmill in the 80s as the logging of native forests was brought to a halt and ownership of forestry moved to the private sector. In 1990 the government gifted the land and buildings to Ngati Whare. Now 280 people inhabit the run-down village, living off the land and their benefit payments. Adam Luxton and Summer Agnew's remarkable and disquietingly aestheticised documentary portrait of the town is the antithesis of Florian Habicht's Kaikohe Demolition, interacting only fleetingly with the inhabitants. When there's social activity - a powhiri, the haka before a rugby match, or just kids clambering on and off a roof - these filmmakers evince something like historical distance, framing ritual and play in the eternal overarching melancholy of mist and forest. Theirs is an eerily beautiful picture of torpor, isolation and decay - and of Maori culture enduring on the land, inhabiting the detritus of a western economy.

18657 ::: "Gary Spetz's Watercolor Quest" (2011) ::: reality-tv ::: Host/Producer Gary Spetz, moves into the travel: paint-photograph genre, with his new series: Gary Spetz's Watercolor Quest. This is not a how-to-paint series, like his previous 72-episodes of Gary Spetz's Painting Wild Places. This is a "travel series" with scene composition and painting tips-from the unique point-of-view of a nationally recognized, award-winning artist. In the 13-episodes of Watercolor Quest, painter/photographer Gary Spetz takes viewers along on his expeditions, while he searches for painting compositions. You do not have to be an artist to appreciate his perspective on visual design. Indeed, this series is created for non-artist-viewers to realize their inherent "inner-artist" selves. He, essentially, teaches viewers to "open their eyes wider, to see more." As Gary is fond of saying, "there is so little time and so much to paint." But, he will also tell you "there is so little time and so much to see and appreciate" (that too often, goes unseen). The hussle-bussle of a busy world, teaches many of us to narrow our vision. Too much visual-wonder, is too easily missed. Gary stresses the need to relearn to "view the world like a child"-a time in our lives when nearly everything was fascinating and new. Because, to not open our eyes wider, is to waste our ability and capacity to fully appreciate the world around us. In this series, Gary provides glimpses of how he approaches and creates various paintings, in his brief step-by-step explanations. There is just enough painting instruction to intrigue "wannabe artists," but not too much to bore those who want, simply, to appreciate artwork. While the series' emphasis is on spectacular visuals, Gary interjects a subtle dose of humor, as he explains, teaches and entertains. Gary Spetz's Watercolor Quest is fun, fast moving, visually stimulating and "stealthily" educational.

18870 ::: Excitable Speech: All About Cinderella (2008) ::: documentary ::: The myth of Cinderella undergoes a series of generative twist to illumine the inventive power of speech. 11 children and 3 educated women engaged in a game of improvisation via their talking-head camera presence. Tale-telling to some children is the realization of creative instincts, to others the performance of self, or it's simply a tedious pedagogic vessel. My research-creation completes with adult women transforming the usage of Cinderella-objects into agents of their own stories, however fragmentary or elliptical. The event of tale-telling woke up the child in them; children language was appropriated to perform unarticulated subjectivities. Gender is a complex system, most revealing in language-in-action. The coda is a grand finale celebrating the magical power of objects and their own unlimited lives. Story-telling is the most primitive form of play. Harmless it may look, it is also the most sophisticated embodiment of ideological workings. The same story of Cinderella hides and enacts a child's family background, moral formation, the effects of socialization, her aspirations, projection of a good life and so on.

18899 ::: Asmahan (2005) ::: short ::: Asmahan is a film poem about the famous Syrian singer of the same name. The film is made up of four parts: love, death, love, and death. Each part follows one of the two songs Asmahan sings in the film which are used as a structural motif throughout. Like her musical notations, every shot is connected to every other shot. Nearly every shot contains Asmahan (she is the only actor in the film who appears to be talking), which is meant to create an obsessive relationship with the image reminding us of the interplay of voyeurism and exhibitionism that makes the actor that we see on the screen dream like, especially when she also sees us. This dream logic suggests that there is a hidden life, which exists through pictures, lurking in even the most superficial and trite of B-films. It is this fragment-like wholeness that is in a sense the structure of the film. As in a dream, Asmahan's actions are accentuated through a number of strategies: slowing down of the cinematic image, creating a montage of gestures, making familiar objects look estranged, repeating shots which look the same but are in fact different in their temporal and spatial sense, and the use of filters to transform her look into a romantic and haunting one (Garbo-like), but also an assertive one.

From the street to the gallery. From walls to clothing. From private to worldwide. Our cameras unmask the mystifying process behind graffiti art like never before. Revealing step-by-step how the colors blend, how the angles sharpen, how the shadows emerge. Lifting the veil from a subculture so clandestine, it took 40 years to get this close. The artists take their skills to a variety of surfaces -concrete, canvas, metal, cloth, and brick. And to an array of locations - city rooftops, the desert, downtown lofts, the sewers, even the forest. ROCK FRESH also reveals artists painfully coming of age. From kids drawing in their sketchbooks, to grown men struggling to make a living off of their art. Struggling between the codes of the underground and the lure of the mainstream. Journey through the buzzing underground art world - from live graffiti battles and gallery showcases, to underground parties and late night bombing sessions, Hollywood alleyways to Tokyo skyscrapers. Learn what it takes to ROCK FRESH.

19134 ::: Vote Yes for Aborigines (2007) ::: documentary ::: While many people believe that the 1967 Referendum gave Aborigines the right to vote, in fact the Referendum removed two sections of the constitution that discriminated against Aborigines. With the highest YES vote in Australia's history, 90.77% of voters agreed that Aborigines be counted in the census and that the Commonwealth Government take charge of Aboriginal affairs, effectively acknowledging Aboriginal people as citizens within their own country. Aborigines had fought for citizenship rights for over a century but it was the coming together of the many Aboriginal associations and leagues in 1958 to form a national body that finally gave impetus to the struggle. The Federal Council for the Advancement of Aborigines and Torres Strait Islanders or FCAATSI attracted both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal membership and support from across all sections of Australian society. For ten years they campaigned to convince the public and politicians of the need for Constitutional change. They capitalised on the global condemnation of Australia's treatment of its Indigenous people and the media's growing interest in Aboriginal issues. The "Freedom Rides" of 1965 and the Gurindji strike at Wave Hill in 1966 highlighted Aboriginal living and working conditions and helped advance the crusade to set things right for Indigenous Australians.

Ron Ormand and Maurice Tombragel politely, quietly, unashamedly and without a nod of recognition in the direction of the original writer or film source took a 1937 Republic western with Johnny Mack Brown, "Guns in the Dark" and used it, with only slight changes, as the plot for "Colorado Ranger", and put themselves down for Original Screenplay. At least, they had the good grace not to claim a Story credit.

He works at Resnick's Pharmacy to be able to earn enough money to put himself through college. But in part because of the life lessons he learns from Mr. Resnick through Mr. Resnick's somewhat cynical observations of the customers that come into the pharmacy, Howard is intrigued by an offer from George, his best friend, to tour Canada following their graduation instead of going directly into a post-secondary institution. This trip would not be a vacation, but rather an opportunity to see what life has to offer by meeting people from different parts of the country, while they work odd jobs along the way.

19240 ::: Before They Were Beatles (2004) ::: drama ::: The film reflects on the increasing cultural ambivalence toward the 21st century's war-and-peace philosophy; it is a way in which this work envisions the 20th century's disillusionment with the idea of patriotic wars and super sized American idols. This generation of boys and girls discover that instead of empowering their mind, politics and pop stereotypes provoke destructive misinterpretations. Reminiscence of wars and of biblical murder illustrates themes of guilt and responsibility in White's video almost on a Shakespearean scale. The boys' physical appearance in different epochs, in different roles (but adamantly on the verge of death) emphasizes the themes of appearance and equivocation explored throughout the film. The artist chose the Beatles in their Renaissance and 1960s incarnations. Their figures, songs and images of youth remain relevant to Tim White's main aesthetic principles in various cultural/historical contexts. Civilization appears as camaraderie of teenagers whose lives would be defined by war; as a Renaissance of boys and girls who refused to be buried in the graveyard of lost hope. In its own right, it is Apocalypse Now. In the filmmaker's translation, it is the world fed up with old men making up wars for young men to die in.

19244 ::: Moirés Bewegung Licht (1986) ::: documentary ::: Starting from the internationally renowned Moiré sculptures of the Bernese artist Werner Witschi, the film "Moirés Movement Light" offers a multi-level visual and acoustic experience and invites the spectator to perceive normal everyday life differently. By documenting the way Werner Witschi works in his workshop in Bolligen (near Berne) while creating a new Moiré object, and by creating visual and acoustic links between the abstract and the concrete through selected works of Werner Witschi and looks at the everyday objects and surroundings familiar to us, the film reveals new perceptions of and references to the abstract art. The improvised music takes the imagery of the film as a score in order to interpret acoustically the Moiré effect and the visually abstract constantly moving and changing.

As if that's not enough, Blair then plans to scam the money from Dallas, all with the beauty of a gorgeous Greek isle. Steve Blair is a New York based con artist. His latest endeavor to make money, which he is doing with his reluctant partner in crime Paul Ferris - a writer who is easily manipulated when he's had a few drinks in him, which is always - is to transform and market the Greek island of Paradeisos from a backwater nothing into a tourist trap of a lovers' haven, partly by dealing in fake antiquities to support the old but recently debunked Greek story of it being the island of love. Steve spent eighteen months on the island during the war. This scheme could make Steve and Paul rich beyond their wildest dreams. Steve and Paul are able to finance this scheme partly from their most recent scam on not too bright New York mobster Tony Dallas, who surrounds himself with yes men. The trip to Greece initially was solely for Steve and Paul to get away from Tony before he found out they bilked him, Tony getting his hands on them which would probably mean their lives. In Paradeisos, Steve is unexpectedly reunited with the Harakas family - Mama Harakas, her now grown daughter Elena Harakas, and her professor "pre"-fiancé Gregor Pappas - the latter who Steve hopes to be able to use to his advantage as a local historian in verifying the Dionysian "finds". One complicating factor is that Steve is falling in love with Elena, who may not approve if she knew of his deceit. Beyond them possibly being caught in the fraud, there still is the issue of Tony, who has his thugs scouring the globe for Steve and Paul. What Steve and Paul also discover is that Mama's brother, who she hasn't seen in years and who is coming to the island for his honeymoon, may negatively factor into what happens.

19274 ::: Le dernier des injustes (2013) ::: documentary ::: A place: Theresienstadt. A unique place of propaganda which Adolf Eichmann called the "model ghetto", designed to mislead the world and Jewish people regarding its real nature, to be the last step before the gas chamber. A man: Benjamin Murmelstein, last president of the Theresienstadt Jewish Council, a fallen hero condemned to exile, who was forced to negotiate day after day from 1938 until the end of the war with Eichmann, to whose trial Murmelstein wasn't even called to testify. Even though he was without a doubt the one who knew the Nazi executioner best. More than twenty-five years after Shoah, Claude Lanzmann's new film reveals a little-known yet fundamental aspect of the Holocaust, and sheds light on the origins of the "Final Solution" like never before. 1975. In Rome, Claude Lanzmann filmed a series of interviews with Benjamin Murmelstein, the last President of the Jewish Council in the Theresienstadtghetto in Czechoslovakia, the only "Elder of the Jews"* not to have been killed during the war. A rabbi in Vienna, following the annexation of Austria by Germany in 1938, Murmelstein fought bitterly with Adolf Eichmann, week after week for seven years, managing to help around 121,000 Jews leave the country, and preventing the liquidation of the ghetto. 2012. Claude Lanzmann, at 87 - without masking anything of the passage of time on men, but showing the incredible permanence of the locations involved - exhumes these interviews shot in Rome, returning to Theresienstadt, the town "given to the Jews by Hitler", a so-called model ghetto, but a ghetto of deceit chosen by Adolf Eichmann to dupe the world. We discover the extraordinary personality of Benjamin Murmelstein: a man blessed with a dazzling intelligence and a true courage, which, along with an unrivaled memory, makes him a wonderfully wry, sardonic and authentic storyteller. Through these three periods, from Nisko in Poland to Theresienstadt, and from Vienna to Rome, the film provides an unprecedented insight into the genesis of the Final Solution. It reveals the true face of Eichmann, and exposes without artifice the savage contradictions of the Jewish Councils. *according to Nazi terminology

19284 ::: On a heym (1939) ::: drama ::: The last Yiddish feature made in Poland before WWII, this 1939 film was based on a 1907 play by the prolific playwright Jacob Gordin. Best known for his folksy didacticism and moralism, Gordin brought the common life of the Lower East Side to the Yiddish stage. With over 100 plays to his credit, Gordin was a formative influence on modern Yiddish theater. He was so popular among theatergoers that reportedly a quarter of a million people attended his funeral in New York City. Without a Home is the story of the separation and hardships faced by immigrants in America at the turn of the century. Its touching portrayal of the hardships of immigrant life enthralled Jewish theater audiences and it became part of the standard Yiddish stage repertoire in America and Poland. The film provides a poignant and dramatic picture of a difficult era, focusing on the bleak prospects for the survival of traditional Jewish family values. When the eldest son of the Rivkin family is drowned, the father leaves his family in Europe to go to America. There he finds only financial hardship and loneliness, struggling to find a way to bring the rest of his family over. The stellar cast includes stage actress Ida Kaminska and the hilarious comedy duo, Dzigan and Shumacher, who provide a healthy measure of comic relief. The title, Without a Home, intended by Gordin to symbolize the uprooted Jewish immigrant family and by extension, the Jewish people, was a particularly poignant one for Jewish film audiences in Poland on the eve of WWII. The film underscored the growing sense among Polish Jews facing the Nazi threat and increasing antisemitism in Poland that they too might soon be "without a home." This, the last Yiddish feature film made in Poland before World War II, is the story of the hardships faced by immigrants in America at the turn of the century. After the eldest son of the Rivkin family is drowned, the father leaves his family in Eurpoe to go to America. There, he finds only financial hardship and loneliness.

This school is a very rough, downtown, locals only school. She chooses the latter and is packed off immediately. On the plane she opens a letter from her father explaining that there is one important rule she must adhere to and this is to not tell anyone who she is ie royalty.

He says he knows nothing but this email that was sent to him. We see it's the match to the one the airport police have so they are very relieved to hand Amelia over once the huge fine is paid. Craig says there must be some kind of mistake but no, Amelia is the package. He thinks she will be easy to handle but through scenes of escape and parties and missing school.

They are facing very real and very serious dangers that vary from global warming, a challenged economy, a broken political system and the continued skyrocketing cost of living that meets a still lower-than-survivable minimum wage. We hope to cover their struggles, as well as how they feel the future can be changed for the better. Ultimately, we aim to give them a voice.

The Meyhane (May-HAH-nay) is simply the name given to the traditional taverns historically found in Iran, Turkey and the Arab countries. The name comes from the Farsi words for "wine" (mey) and "house" (hane). Meyhanes are where people stop to imbibe wine or Raki eating exquisitely prepared "meze" (tapas) and to fraternize. However, the meyhanes have signified, for centuries, a geography of meaning much vaster than being simple places to drink. From Omar Khayyam to Sufis, who rendered the meyhane and the wine as metaphors for spiritual ascension, the meyhane have served the philosophers of the soul and symbolized a place for rest, pondering the deeper waters of life. From Iran to its hinterland, from Anatolia to Greece, meyhanes have always been linked to a deeper philosophy of life. Inspired by the director's grandfather's devotion to the culture, to such a degree that he forsook his own wedding ceremony to indulge in a night at the meyhane, Meyhane: Dedemin Can Evi brings to screen an intimate exploration of the currently commercialized culture of meyhanes in Istanbul as well as the profound philosophy and life-knowledge that is associated with them with stories and commentaries from a long list of names known for their expertise in and love for the culture.

Their life is not totally harmonious due to David's chronic infidelity and Melanie's emotional instability, a result in large part of her growing up which she refuses to speak of to Benjamin, who knows nothing of his mother's childhood directly from her. Melanie has been institutionalized many times in her life and is on medication to deal with her mental issues. Melanie's passion in life is to follow many cases of political oppression in the world, this passion again due to her past life. In September 1985, Melanie, through this work, reconnects with Jakob Bronski who she knew during World War II when she was only a teenager when they were both interred at Drancy, a transit station outside of Paris where the government, in cooperation with the Nazis, housed Jews before they were sent to a concentration camp. An adult when they were interred, Jakob, a poet, has just been released from a Russian psychiatric hospital where he has lived for most of his life for killing a guard. Against David's wishes, Melanie asks Jakob to come and stay with them for as long as he wants. Along with Jakob comes Christopher Lewis, who was also interred at Drancy when he was a teenager, his internment despite not being Jewish himself. The three formed a special bond during their stay at Drancy. Jakob and Christopher's visit opens up a flood of emotions for Melanie about her past with the two people she considers the closest to blood relations and how it led to where she is today. But it also brings into light the Winters family dynamic as especially Benjamin learns more about his mother's life. Emotional Arithmetic tells the story of three people who formed a life-long bond while housed at a detention camp during World War II that are reunited some 35 years later after being separated from one another. Jakob Bronski, a young Jewish man, took a shine to two youngsters, Melanie and Christopher, while they were interred, by the Nazis, at Drancy, a housing complex on the outskirts of Paris that was used as a detention camp for Jews. Drancy operated as a way station; once there, having your name put on the wrong list meant relocation to a death camp. Their separation inflicts deep emotional wounds that grossly impact their lives in differing ways in the years leading up to their life-altering reunion. Now a beautiful woman in her 50's, Melanie Lansing Winters, wife of David Winters, balances her precarious emotional state with an innate sharp, deprecating wit. Jakob, now a senior citizen, is a heroic dissident and veteran of a Soviet psychiatric hospital. And her childhood friend, Christopher Lewis, a British novelist who has long carried a torch for Melanie, is haunted by the eternal question survivors ask themselves - "Why was I saved?" Melanie invites Jakob to stay with her at her home in Canada. Christopher accompanies Jakob there. With Melanie's marriage to David in shambles due to his compulsive infidelity, the pair's presence in the Winters' home revitalizes Melanie, but arouses unexpected reserves of jealousy in David, who is estranged from his and Melanie's grown son, Benjamin, a father himself to a young son, Timmy. On a balmy summer evening, the past explodes into the present in an unexpected and tender love story and its fatal consequences. The 'emotional arithmetic' of the title refers to the characters' struggle to face the past and move on.

In late summer 1973, Michael Skid, the son of a well-to-do judge, returns home and rents a dilapidated farm. He begins to spread the gospel of communal ideals, which he has absorbed during his travels in India. His new worldliness and ideas go over well with impoverished siblings Madonna and Silver Brassaurd and the hopelessly naďve Carrie. They go over less well with Tom Donnerel, a young farmer and Carrie's fiancé. Wounded by Tom's derision, Michael befriends ex-convict Everette Hatch, who, recognizing opportunity, exploits Michael's ideas to his advantage. Believing himself capable of understanding people from the other side of the track, Michael fails to recognize that the ex-con is manipulating him and so sets off a catastrophic chain of events in the community. It's 1973 in Newcastle, New Brunswick, a farming community just upriver of the shores of Miramichi Bay. Two absent young men have recently returned. The first is Everette Hatch, who has just completed a stint behind bars. The second is aspiring photographer Michael Skid, the son of a prominent local judge. Michael, who lives a carefree life due to his family's wealth, was traveling through India, from where he learned his new ideals of true community living - what yours is mine and what's mine is yours. He has just rented a rundown farmhouse where he hopes to put his thoughts into practice. Everette proposes to their group of friends that they put that ideal into practice by having a community fund available to whomever needs it. Everyone in that group would contribute to the fund. Michael agrees. Michael's girlfriend Madonna Brassaurd, who is barely able to make ends meet, is a little less convinced as she wants to save money specifically so that her brother Silver Brassaurd can go to technical school, but Everette somewhat convinces them - specifically "joiner" Silver - as the money can be used for Silver's education. Although he is not asked, responsible farmer Tom Donnerel, who cares for his mentally disabled brother Vincent Donnerel, and Tom's fiancée Carrie Matchett would be even less convinced. Tom previously argued that the community's "you do me a favor, I'll do you a favor in return" really is a true sense of that communal living to which Michael aspires. An incident that occurs between two within the group threatens not only the fund but friendships and relationships. But the fund itself is already threatened when Everette uses the money for a drug deal which he promises to make them all rich. Everette exploits all those in the group for his own end purpose. But when Everette's grand scheme goes awry, the lives of all within the group are threatened, and not only because of the issue of the money.

The whale the world knew best was Herman Melville's Moby Dick -- and the image of "the Great White Whale" was every bit as horrifying as the Great White Shark became in the 1970's courtesy of Jaws. The only good whale was a dead whale. The military used whales for target practice. Fishermen shot them from their boats. Both the US and Canasda had an active whaling industry. No one had any problems with this. In 1964, the curator of the Vancouver Aquarium decided to study the monster. Of course, there was only one way to learn about the fearsome creature. He had to kill it. So he put together his team-- a First Nations harpooner, a sculptor and a top neuroscientist. The plan was to set up camp on Saturna Island where the monsters lurked close to shore, harpoon a killer whale and drag the corpse back to the Vancouver Aquarium where the sculptor would use the remains to create a scale model for study. The neuroscientist would dissect the brain. Other scientists had dibs on the other organs. The whalers spotted their prey, harpooned it as planned -- but the creature didn't die. The harpoon missed the vital organs. Terrified that the monster was going to kill them, they shot at it with a rifle. When the whale still didn't attack they decided hey could take it back to Vancouver to study it. The harpooned whale followed their boat back to the city "like a dog on a leash." What happened next changed the world. The Killer Whale Who Changed The World explores the transformation of whales from "killers" to "Orcas."

The Yoshidas have farmed this land for nine generations-200 years. They grow natural crops including 'firefly rice,' so named because the insects, driven near extinction by chemical pesticides and fertilizer, have proliferated as farmers return to the traditional methods practiced by their ancestors. The Yoshidas' farm is one many organic farms in Tohoku, the earthquake and tsunami-ravaged region of northern Japan that supplies much of the rice and vegetables to Tokyo and across the country. Some of the farmers have already been forced to abandon their land, their livestock, and their homes to the threat of radioactive fallout. But many more are faced with uncertainty about the level of contamination in their soil. They're looking for ways to more precisely test radiation levels of specific locations and crops. And they're exploring what they can grow to help the soil repair itself from the nuclear disaster. Intermittent government warnings have limited the sale of food grown there since high levels of radiation were detected in some vegetables, milk and fish from the region. In the absence of a comprehensive policy on testing for radiation and regulating exposure and contamination, the public is left in a state of anxious ambiguity, risking consumption of dangerous crops, as well as potentially unnecessary discrimination against crops, other products, and people from the region that compounds the economic damage from the disaster. "We don't know if our crops will be safe," Masanori says. "We can't ignore this issue. But we won't stop cultivating our land. We farmers need to nurture the environment, nature and culture, and pass them to them to the next generation." Farmers and scientists search desperately for ways to continue safely using this rich land, or restore it to its natural state. Whether they can succeed, or whether the farmers must abandon their ancestral homesteads, remains to be seen.

19486 ::: Haiti. Uden titel (1995) ::: documentary ::: Haiti. Uden title is a kaleidoscopic, dramatic documentary from this chaotic Caribbean country and comprises a mixture of material on video, 16 mm and 35 mm, dating in some scenes right back shooting on Leth's Udenrigskorrespondent (1982). The very lively hand-held video sequences that make up the most recent material make up the bulk of the film and the rapid, fragmentary editing style garnished with neat video tricks, gunfire, etc. put the film at the same level as the Haiti chaos itself. The French photographer Chantal Regnault plays Leth's role as the "experiencer", an observer in the midst of the dramatic reality of Haiti which she also describes with an outsider's fascination. The film contains a large number of very powerful, sensual pictures of life and death in Haiti, the heartrending weeping at the funerals, mountains of refuse picturesquely and infernally aflame, the dramatic manifestations and ritual beauty of voodoo, the rhetoric of the politicians, and far more besides. Another angle is pursued in the scenes of the American soldier stationed there who clearly represents the impotence of western rationalism in the face of Haitian reality. But there are also great contrasts: in perfectly calm passages the tropical rain pours down on the Hotel Oloffson garden in lingering shots, lightly-attired women was clothes in a river, and a naked woman poet recites one of her poems draped in a basket chair as the camera slowly zooms in on her. Shots of a naked black woman on a white sheet offer highly personal erotic material that is also displayed during the film in ultra-brief, hidden pictures. Haiti. Uden title is thus a dynamic, vigorous visual narrative aesthetically akin to a number of contemporary documentaries such as Tómas Gislason's Fra hjertet til hĺnden (a portrait film about Leth) and Jacob Thuesen's Under New York.

They also imported African slaves to mine the silver. It is said that 8 million people died in the mines of this mountain while providing Spain with immense wealth. Potosi, by the way, is the highest city in the world at an elevation of 14,000 feet. The Spanish culture spread into Potosi during this time, and the local people became aware of something they had never seen or heard before: a stringed instrument. Forbidden from ever playing the Spanish guitar, the miners copied it and created the charango. Even today, nearly 150 years after the end of Spanish rule, the charango ! continues to be a companion to many in Potosi, miners or not.

19644 ::: Breakfast at Rhiz (2000) ::: short ::: Two shots: The first abruptly zooms in on a talking, animated, and closely attentive subject pointing the technological apparatus of medical science at a small piece of meat. The second, in a long and occasionally jerky zoom which is so slow that as to be hardly noticeable, shows a red object, presumably the same piece of meat. The surgeon with severely slicked-back hair, who talks into an intercom and then to himself in Swedish before dissecting the meat, creates a somewhat odd impression, in particular due to the curve of the 'fake' wide-screen image. But the unusual object being fiddled with (or maybe not) by this sleek mad scientist reminiscent of B movies, Cronenberg and the Kingdom clinic is even more enigmatic. As a result, its visibility is at the same time legible, decipherable, for example as a jiggling, affective red which would overmodulate any video monitor filling out the structure of the meat's tissue. Or as a red galaxy fading into the microscopic detail of a foreign body. Seen, heard and read in a synthetic sense, the zoom into the amorphous body corresponds to the pathway taken by Bernhard Fleischmann's chords and percussion through an inconstant blubbering, crackling, creaking and splashing. The regular contours of the music seem to take their pointed warmth from intimate contact with the meat (the open heart).

Likewise, the men we meet here are chefs, salon-owners, housekeepers and teachers, in addition to being inveterate fun-lovers and an acknowledged "outlet" for straight men in a culture that still values virginity in brides. However, all is not perfect in paradise, as director Alejandra Islas occasionally suggests in a frequently amusing way just how low the glass ceiling of acceptance might be for those who push too hard. The Muxes of Juchitan are proud of their identity, enjoy their lives, laugh at themselves as well as at "straight" society, and admit their own foibles freely. They call themselves "Authentic, Intrepid Seekers of Danger", and have banded together to lead the fight against AIDS in Oaxaca. They talk frankly about their experiences of acceptance and rejection, and their successes in finding freedom, love and delight in their special identity.

As a young ambitious missionary three decades ago, Dan, a red-bearded towering American, decamped to the Amazon rain forest to save indigenous souls. His assignment was to translate the book of Mark into the tongue of the Pirah, a people whose puzzling speech seemed unrelated to any other on Earth. What he learned during his time with the Pirah led him to question the very foundations of his own deep beliefs. As a 'born again' atheist, Dan divorced his devout Christian wife and became estranged from his children. Having lost faith and family, his new life is dominated by the desire to leave behind his legacy. Everett's most controversial claim is that the Pirah language lacks 'recursion' - the ability to build an infinite number of sentences within sentences, regarded by Chomsky-ists as perhaps the most fundamental characteristic of human language. The Grammar Of Happiness interweaves the tale of Everett's attempt to return to the Pirah with the story of his personal journey since the sixties - from drug-taking musician to evangelical missionary to rabble-rousing academic. It's the adventurous tale of losing faith but finding happiness.

She drags her son Josh out of the house and along with her; he is hesitant and doesn't want to leave. Karen ends up at her parent's house where we realize she is running away from her hometown and is terribly afraid. She leaves Josh and some belongings with her parents and runs out of the house in tears. The audience soon learns there is someone stalking Karen. Wherever Karen goes Dominic follows, she tries to lead her normal life but can't because she is constantly looking over her shoulder. Throughout the film a "voice of god" narrative explains things one should not do if being stalked. This only adds to the tension as we watch Karen continually doing the "wrong" thing which makes it easier for Dominic to follow close behind. "Stalker" is a powerful film, both to itself and as a supportive document to defenseless women who wouldn't know what to do if they were ever being 'stalked'. The film itself is simple; it doesn't try to explode with the newest and greatest special effects or Hollywood actors. The story might be seem hard to follow, but if you pay close attention to the voice over from beginning to end you will realize there is actually a linear story. This film marked Vinit Borrison's directorial debut. It was a piece that represented the work of a writer/director/cinematographer combo and couldn't have been accomplished without the hard work and dedication of the entire cast and crew. The film was entirely funded out of pocket with countless evenings without sleep, sex, and friends for a film that is truly from the heart. For filmmakers it's a world of high-stakes and compromise but in the end it always pays off?

The film, which is shot somewhat in a cinema verite style, divides roughly into three acts. In Act One, there is a series of murders of prostitutes in Paris. An obviously deeply disturbed man is hiring these prostitutes and then strangling them. Suspicion falls on François (Amidou), a married man with a child. The police put him under surveillance. (Viewers will recognize the inspector in charge of the team as Marcel Bozzuffi, who would play Popeye Doyle's nemesis in The French Connection a couple of years later.) Ironically, François is experiencing spiritual healing and renewal through the power of love---not with his wife, of course, this being a French film, but through an affair with a beautiful young woman he has met (not a prostitute). But just as this is happening and François seems to have lost the need to commit violent crimes, he is arrested. Act Two is the arraignment, trial and exposition of François's life and history. His recent transformation, of course, makes no impression on the court, and he is sentenced to death by guillotine. Act Three is a documentary-style record of François's last days in prison and his execution. The last scene in the film is an image of the guillotine's blade beginning its descent; it slows and freezes and there is a fade to black, as a voiceover issues a passionate plea for abolition of the guillotine.

19849 ::: Last Man in Dhaka Central: The Young Man Was, Part III (2015) ::: history ::: November 1975. The Summer of Tigers was a twilight moment for multiple Left possibilities. After the assassination of Salvador Allende, Bangladeshis worried about a similar fate. The end came much more abruptly; instead of a face-off inside a presidential palace, soldiers surprised the guard regiment raising the national flag at dawn. A brutal massacre killed the Prime Minister and his whole family, ending the country's first Socialist government. Three months later, two more coups followed, the last being a Maoist-inspired "soldiers' mutiny," which collapsed in the middle of betrayal and miscalculation. Caught up in this maelstrom was Peter Custers, a Dutch journalist who befriended the leader of the soldiers' mutiny, and had formed his own underground group, Movement for Proletarian Unity. Last Man unspools two stories in reversed sequences. In a series of newsreels and memos, we start at the end-with Peter's release. In the parallel story being told by Peter, his memories unravel over books, magazines, and clippings in his Leiden home, far away from the Bangladesh of 1975 or today. Peter, like many European Leftists of his generation (especially post-Herbert Marcuse's One-Dimensional Man), believed that even if the alienated masses trapped inside modernity were numbed into obedience, the revolutionary spirit might still be found "outside" modernity-in the prisons and ghettos of the First World, or in the cities and villages of the Third. It was a search for the latter that led him to drop out of a Ph.D. program at Johns Hopkins and move to Asia in 1973. As he found out, though, there was never a complete outside; a numbed proletariat could also doom Leftist uprisings in the vaunted Third World-as Godard also hinted in La Chinoise (1967). Last Man premiered at the 56th Venice Biennale, in "All the World's Futures" curated by Okwui Enwezor. The film intended to begin a long-term dialogue with Peter, but has now become an unintentional memorial: a few months after watching the film in Venice, Peter was making plans to fly to Lisbon for the festival premiere when he passed away unexpectedly. The film now speaks into a void; its last man has finally said goodbye. November 1975. After the assassination of Salvador Allende, Bangladeshis worried about a similar fate. Caught up in this maelstrom was Peter Custers, a Dutch journalist who befriended the leader of the soldiers' mutiny, and had formed his own underground group, Movement for Proletarian Unity.

Michael's estranged wife joins them for the funeral. Michael Taylor is a New York based author of romance novels. The bend toward what is generally regarded as a female genre may be due to the strong relationship he has with his mother, Lisa Taylor, and in large part a measure of survival against his tyrannical father, English professor Charles Taylor. The problems he has with his father stems from as far back as childhood, when he would do things purposefully to set his father off, knowing that some sort of retribution would be coming.

The documentary film MOON TV - GOODBYE TELEVISION tells the amazing story of the Finnish underground and very anarchistic television channel Moon TV and it's struggle against the harsh business-driven media world. For six years Moon TV showed us that also television can be an alternative and independent media outlet. Youth, music and lifestyle channel Moon TV burnt with a flamboyant flame from 1997 to 2003. Starting as an humble chat and text message -based local channel, it became in the end a nationwide, respectable, cable channel. Moon TV was the youth's rebellion against the old ways of making television. In the tale of Moon TV there is truly all kinds of stories. The channel was known mostly for it's extravagant ways: it's often totally drunk channel VJ:s , it's porn film reviews, it's in-your-face attitude. Everything was covered that happened to interest the personnel: programs of punk, techno, heavy metal music, about big machines, different types of alcohols, computer games etc. One of the most celebrated program types were the "documentations" of different music festivals, mostly consisting of very drunk VJ:s interviewing very drunk festival goers. Although the channel was known for it's crazy antics, at the same time it was very street-wise. Nearly all of the personnel were under 25 years old and the VJ:s really know about their subjects, many of them deeply immersed into the scene which they were covering. In the end the venture company behind Moon TV got fed up with the heavily money-loosing channel. As the very marginal channel didn't get enough viewers, it was pressured to change it direction to please the greater audience. This was already to late as the channel had been hemorrhaging money from the beginning. So to the utter shock of the workers, the channel was shut down in the summer of 2003

For the past 25 years, Ingrid Newkirk and People For the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) have tirelessly attacked one of the pillars of civilization: mankind's use of animals. Ingrid and her supporters are driven by the single-minded conviction that humans must not use animals for any reason - not for food, clothing, medical experimentation, or even for entertainment. Ingrid works 18-hour days and lives in a one-bedroom apartment with little furniture. She publicly hopes that mad cow disease will ravage the country; she believes a cure for AIDS is not worth the life of a single monkey; and when Ingrid dies, she wants her body dissected, eaten, and made into clothing - as a statement of solidarity with non-human animals. Having obtained unprecedented access to Ingrid and the activities of her organization, I Am An Animal thoroughly explores PETA's unconventional ideology and its militant and extreme tactics. To understand PETA's staying power and how it became the most successful radical group in America, the film follows several present day actions in addition to examining past controversies. At its core, however, I Am An Animal is an intimate, provocative profile of one woman's private war on behalf of animals.

19975 ::: Notdef./Version One (2000) ::: short ::: notdef., that could mean not deaf or, who knows, not defined. The monotonous thump of a percussively contoured, slightly delayed techno bass line underlies the images which, abstract and mutating constantly defy quick definition. In notdef./version one, virtual objects vigorously grow across a plane and into space from the center of the image for slightly longer than three minutes; nervously assembling and then falling away from one another, they overlap in glaringly bright colors before sinking back into the black matrix. notdef. intentionally animates associations: It is reminiscent of a security monitor recording an inconceivable nuclear accident, or a sonic depth finder extending into an unknown abyss. And the synthetic mates with the organic: Fine digital branches and artificial flashes of electricity constantly grow toward the viewer in this video, into the simulation of pictorial depth in which, again and again, for no longer than fractions of a second, concrete objects become visible among the rays of light and stroboscopic interference ­ the silhouette of a human figure, then an industrial landscape, traces of an external world within the inner electronic world which is apparently hermetically sealed. White light streams out, it circles and dances and burns into the retina, unpredictable and unstoppable, a visual delirium: wild geometric growth from the interior of the machine.

19978 ::: Little Guayule: The Lost Manzanar Rubber Project (2015) ::: documentary ::: 'Little Guayule' is the untold story of a remarkable convergence of events at the end of 1941. The Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor drew the USA into WWII. The subsequent conquest of the British and Dutch rubber plantations of SE Asia spurred a panic mentality in strategic circles as 95% of the world's raw rubber was now in enemy hands. A substitute would be needed... and fast... and the multi-million dollar Emergency Rubber Project was authorized by Congress. Meanwhile, on the Home Front, public ire soon focused on the Japanese in America, and nearly 120,000 on the west coast (2/3 of whom were native-born US citizens) were rounded up and sent to 10 prison camps scattered in desolate areas of the American west. In stepped Dr. Robert Emerson of Caltech, who championed a special project to recruit scientists, horticulturalists and farmers among the imprisoned Japanese Americans to work on the search for a rubber substitute. Overcoming war hysteria, bureaucratic inertia and racism, Dr. Emerson led a team of roughly 40 people to tackle the riddle of guayule, a rubber-bearing desert shrub native to southern Texas and northern Mexico. 'Little Guayule' is the story of Dr. Emerson and his team--the individuals, the obstacles they confronted and what they accomplished behind the barbed wire and guard towers of Manzanar, the 'relocation' camp out in the high desert of Eastern California.

Their stories get intermingled when Luciano accepts, out of necessity, a proposal to take part in this movie project and is asked to play Cura José Gabriel Brochero. As the film develops, the life and personal examples of Brochero, The Cura Gaucho, will constantly exhort Luciano's current lifestyle and mindset to be revised, which leads to a crisis in his innermost nature that will force him to reconsider several aspects of his life. At the end of the movie, Luciano decides to take up the Spiritual Exercises recommended by Brochero as a means to change a person's life. The film, produced by Maranatha Civil Association, is a fiction movie that thoroughly narrates The Cura Gaucho's life resorting to Luciano and Santiago's stories. Through this "film within a film", the producer clearly shows us how the ideals and human values of great men like Brochero can transform and improve our lives.
19982 ::: Veyyil (2006) ::: drama ::: Story of two brothers told from the perspective of older brother who recalls his childhood memories where he runs away from home and returns after 20 years.

In the fields nearby, a foreman steals half of his employees' paychecks. In a trailer at the edge of town, twenty five men share two stoves and one bathroom. "Canaries in the Field" immerses us in the experience of America's migrant laborer, some undocumented and some carrying the controversial H-2A visa. The film takes a trip south of the border to tell the stories of the lives and families of the men and women who pick the fruit, vegetables and tobacco of our agro-industry. The abuses inherent to the H-2A visa guest-worker system explain why the majority of our agricultural workforce remains foreign-born and calls into question: how much has our food industry really improved since Emancipation in 1865?

The Story of the New York Group of Poets (2016) ::: documentary ::: The film tells the story of the pioneers of Ukrainian modernism, fugitives from the deadly regime of the USSR. The group was founded in the early 1950s in New York where its poets worked alongside the Beatniks. Because Ukraine was part of the Soviet Union in those years, writing such poetry there would have surely resulted in severe repression from the KGB. However, the free world offered these poets an opportunity to build and develop their own language and bring their literature to an international level.

19996 ::: Perishing Solicitors (1983) ::: comedy ::: Uses a humorous story to correct popular misconceptions of the legal profession, and promote a better understanding of the everyday problems that can be easily solved by a solicitor. Intended for general audiences. Given the attitudes of most people to solicitors, it's hardly surprising to hear that the solicitors have got together to produce a 23-minute film, appropriately entitled "Perishing Solicitors" which seeks to entreat us all to beware the nightmare that will befall us if we don't use their services. George Cole, Maureen Lipman, Patsy Rowlands, Judy Cornwall and Russell Hunter star in the film made by Video Arts for the Law Society which aims "in a humorous way to correct popular misconceptions of the legal profession and to promote a better understanding of the everyday problems easily solved by a solicitor". Tales of do-it-yourself Wills that are illegal and fail therefore to deliver the goods are followed by a tail (or trail) of tragedy involving a wife who is hospitalised after breaking a leg, workmen who succeed in damaging another man's house and an unfortunate collision with a police car in a one-way street - all of which demonstrate that a few words with a solicitor would have resulted in a valid Will, compensation for the injury, no threat of eviction and an easier time at the local nick. As building societies lobby for a lucrative slice of the property dealing and conveyancing market, no doubt the solicitors are hedging their bets, but bearing in mind the cost and complexity of soliciting a solicitor and the public attitude to them generally, it will be interesting to see whether this film encourages more of us to take the plunge...
19997 ::: S.P.I.T.: Squeegee Punks in Traffic (2001) ::: documentary ::: The narrative unfolds from the point-of-view of a single character named Roach. As part of the filmmaking process, he's been given a camera to document his world. The footage he gets is urgent, because there's a war against squeegee kids. This documentary is from the point of view of the kids themselves, in order to provide alternative voices. Roach's camera is positioned behind "enemy" lines: living in derelict buildings, squeegeeing for money, being hunted by police. The viewer is forced to look at the living reality of Roach and his friends: Hungry on the streets in one of the world's most prosperous countries-considered thugs, criminals, and enemies. This film shatters the windshield between Us and Them. Roach's camera acts as the hammer: hard, forceful, direct; impacting with the force of an actual life.

The siblings live life to the fullest while dreaming of bigger and better futures, though their fantasies are out of step with their reality.
19999 ::: Camgirl Odalisque (2015) ::: short ::: "Camgirl odalisque" aims to establish a connection between classical nude artworks, odalisque figures (such as Ingres' or Manet's), and the more contemporary vision that camgirls represent. Different time periods collide and then merge together. The draperies in the paintings are ornamental and hide what most likely is a modern apartment. The film also deals with a specific attribute of our time, namely, the digitized body. A body seen through a webcam; one that has turned into pixels and digital data. This virtual, ghostly flesh, unsteadily drifting through the networks, falls into pieces as if it refused to stay put.

20219 ::: Erroll Garner: No One Can Hear You Read (2012) ::: documentary ::: Someone once said of jazz legend Erroll Garner that playing the piano for him was as easy as breathing is for you or for me. In a triumphant career that lasted forty years, Erroll Garner pushed the playability of the piano to its limits, developed an international reputation, and made an indelible mark on the jazz world. And yet his story has never been told. Until now. Erroll Garner's personality and unique musicianship are demonstrated and discussed, with clips of Erroll playing and also talking, demonstrating the affability and humour that made him such a delight on the keyboard, and the modesty that made him so loved, both in the USA and as an ambassador abroad, as well as his superb ability and originality when playing the piano. There are family memories from his big sister, Ruth and there is a clip of his talented brother Linton. There are interviews with Jim Doran, his biographer; Woody Allen, the director and a fan; and Steve Allen, the TV presenter; as well other jazz pianists, such as the great Ahmad Jamal and Dick Hyman, who can discuss his technique; and Ernest McCarty who accompanied, and revered, him. There is also an interview with George Avakian who produced the best-selling Concert By the Sea from a tape a GI had made for the troops who couldn't attend the concert. Erroll's playfulness is well demonstrated by the clip of Honeysuckle Rose in which his extended intro confounds Eddie Calhoun, his then bassist as much as the audience, and the segue into the Wedding March causes much amusement. Often said to be the creator of the most happy piano sound ever, this film tries to rectify the underrating in some quarters of this true master of jazz. At 53 minutes it is disappointingly short - I would have liked twice as much again.

Where the political dialogue has failed to bring an end to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, these two Israelis - members of a tribe of visionaries from both sides of the border - dare to succeed. Inspired by sulha, the traditional Middle Eastern process of reconciliation, they hope to begin to heal the wounds of the past fifty years and, in so doing, spark nothing less than a revolutionary movement for peace. Rana, Khaled and Said are all Palestinians from the West Bank. The only Jews in their world are soldiers. Gabriel and Eliyahu hope to change that by inviting them, along with 250 other Palestinians as well as Jews and Arabs from all over Israel, to The Sulha Way, a 3-day peace gathering in northern Israel. For the Palestinians, it is a chance to finally meet a Jew outside of their normal confrontational encounters, on relatively equal footing. But that isn't the only opportunity presented. Though it is only for three days, it is a chance to taste freedom for the first time in years - to actually leave the West Bank. For the peace activists, the journey begins and ends with Abraham, biblical father to both the Jewish and Muslim peoples. With their faith riding on the transformative power of personal connection, they seek an apolitical and spiritually based solution to the conflict. In order to facilitate the dialogue, they invited peacemakers from around the globe, leaders who recently emerged from their own ethnic conflicts, among them a Tibetan monk, a Zulu priest and an Irish Catholic peace activist. As quixotic an approach as it may be, the strength of their convictions is as fierce as the hatred they seek to neutralize. The Road to Sulha tells the story of their encounter as Israelis and Palestinians meet with their inherited enemies and are forced to confront their own relationships to the conflict. Punctuated by the moving stories of Rami and Ali, two survivors of the violence that has wreaked havoc on thousands of families from both sides - this is the story of one small group's efforts at peace in one of the world's most enduring and bloody conflicts.

20378 ::: Red Knot (2014) ::: drama ::: Peter and Chloe, a young married couple from New York, decide on impulse to take a belated honeymoon on-board a research vessel en route to the icy wastes of Antarctica. Not long into the journey, Chloe begins to feel neglected and betrayed by Peter, who is focused on gathering information for an article he plans to publish on their return about the work of one of their fellow passengers, the whale biologist Roger Payne. After an unforgivable betrayal of trust by Peter, Chloe turns their fledgling marriage upside down by moving into her own room and staking out her independence onboard the ship. Drawing attention to the poles within each of us, the impressionistic story oscillates between the super-confined interiors of the ship and the vast open spaces of Antarctica. In the end, it's not until Chloe and Peter are lost - perhaps literally, perhaps metaphorically - in the Antarctic ice that they discover how essential one is to the other. American newlyweds Peter and Chloe Harrison, a writer and artist respectively, have decided to take their honeymoon on a research ship, the research to which they have no formal connection or professional expertise, although Peter plans to document what happens in all facets of the trip, including the research. That research, led by 'Roger Payne (I)' (qv), is to follow the migration of the right whales to their summer feeding grounds of Antarctica, the ship setting sail from southern Argentina. The passengers are primarily Payne's research team, but there are also a few family and friends beyond Peter and Chloe, including Payne's wife 'Lisa Harrow (I)' (qv). Peter and Chloe figure that they can still treat the trip as a stereotypical honeymoon in the intimate sense, as all they really need is a bed behind a locked door to fulfill that role. Peter admits he has always had a fascination with both poles since he was a child, which led in part to this trip. Things in all aspects of the trip start off smoothly enough for Peter and Chloe, as well as for the research team. However, an incident somewhat specific to the situation of the Harrisons being with the research team shows some underlying problems in Peter and Chloe's relationship, which is only exacerbated by their physical and emotional isolation. That problem is further complicated by a secret of which Chloe has not informed Peter. The question becomes whether Peter and Chloe's marriage can survive this crack, especially as Chloe has a sympathetic shoulder upon which to lean in the form of Captain Emerson who has generally isolated himself from the passengers otherwise.

20446 ::: Gett (2014) ::: drama ::: In Israel there is neither civil marriage nor civil divorce. Only rabbis can legitimize a marriage or its dissolution. But this dissolution is only possible with full consent from the husband, who in the end has more power than the judges. Viviane Amsalem has been applying for divorce for three years. But her husband Elisha will not agree. His cold intransigence, Viviane's determination to fight for her freedom, and the ambiguous role of the judges shape a procedure in which tragedy vies with absurdity, and everything is brought out for judgment, apart from the initial request. Elisha and Viviane Amsalem have been married for over twenty years with only one of their four offspring still living at home. He being devoutly Jewish and she living largely secular is only one of the major differences between the two. It is because of the many differences that Viviane has long known that she no longer loves him and that they were incompatible as husband and wife. As such, she moved out three years ago to live with her sister and her family, has supported herself as a hairdresser, has remained faithful in not carrying on with any other man but has not communicated with Elisha directly, and has maintained her family duties in cooking for Elisha and their son at home, the food which she has sent to them. She has approached the rabbinical court to obtain a gett, the equivalent of a divorce. It is more a religious document in which the husband releases the wife from her marital duties, including intimate relations. Grounds for divorce could be such things as adultery or physical abuse. Incompatibility or falling out of love are not reasonable grounds. Without these grounds, the courts cannot force Elisha to oblige her request. Although the courts can invoke penalties for failure to appear - which Elisha does often in an effort to ignore the problem - they still cannot grant her request without either these previously stated grounds or his consent. When Elisha does eventually appear in court, he denies her request despite their marriage largely being in name only. Over the course of the very drawn out proceedings, the nature of Elisha and Viviane's life in all its aspects over their entire marriage is not only exposed, but so is the nature of their society and the courts where all of the power lies with the belief in God in the male dominated culture. After a lukewarm marriage of over twenty years, the weary 45-year-old Israeli Viviane Amsalem requests a divorce in front of a court from her overbearing devout husband Elisha or a "gett", a legal divorce document according to Jewish Law. Which says she can commit adultery legitimately For this reason, the loyal wife will appeal to her husband's compassion in order to obtain the long-awaited precious document, only to be crushed under a sluggish, prejudiced system and Elisha's sinister machinations. Sadly, as the days turn to weeks and then months, an absolutely hideous Kafkaesque nightmare will gradually devour the powerless and forsaken by both men and God Viviane. Is there a way out of this madness?

Besides the ecstatically mutilated woman who reappears at the center of von Trier's Golden Heart trilogy and in the figures of "Grace" and "She", this film also introduces the Ascension motif which has its counterpart in the final shot of The Orchid Gardener also where the Dreyer-esque "Jew" appears to impale the film itself as if it were "Vampyr".

It featured special guest stars THE TEMPTATIONS, STEVIE WONDER, and THE (post DIANA ROSS) SUPREMES. It was essentially a LAUNCHING PAD for SMOKEY'S SOLO CAREER....to prepare the public for his upcoming departure from the legendary MIRACLES ,the very FIRST of the great MOTOWN GROUPS, that was actually formed in 1955 ...and went professional in 1957,with WARREN "PETE" MOORE,BOBBY ROGERS, RONNIE WHITE, MARV TARPLIN, & his future wife (and BOBBY'S cousin) CLAUDETTE ROGERS. SMOKEY did actually leave the group 2 years later. It should have been a celebration of his years with THE MIRACLES and their collective accomplishments.However, this special,seemed to showcase all the other artists talents rather than those of the MIRACLES, who were not at full strength at the time the special was filmed. CLAUDETTE was not present ,MARV TARPLIN was not featured on camera, and PETE MOORE was also absent , having been sidelined with a leg injury shortly before filming. So, with only SMOKEY,BOBBY AND RONNIE present, the occasion left MIRACLES FANS dissatisfied at best. However TEMPTATIONS fans were ecstatic,with their favorites , who were all present,(including DAVID RUFFIN'S replacement, DENNIS EDWARDS), having performed a powerful rendition of their latest hit "BALL OF CONFUSION", Temptation PAUL WILLIAMS however , was visibly ill ,and left the group permanently later the next year,as did original member EDDIE KENDRICKS.The SUPREMES performed one of their hits,as did STEVIE.THE MIRACLES opened the show with their 1963 TOP 10 SMASH "MICKEY'S MONKEY",and later did a medley which included their big hits "GOING TO A GO GO" and "IF YOU CAN WANT".Later, The entire troupe sat and reminisced Motown memories of the early days and touring with the legendary MOTORTOWN REVUE shows of the early '60s.This special is rarely remembered today, and other than the TEMPTATIONS' performance, which has just been released as part of the 2006 DVD : THE TEMPTATIONS GET READY : THE DEFINITIVE DVD PERFORMANCES,has not been seen at all since it's original 1970 network broadcast.Hopefully one day it will be released on DVD .Overall a good , but not great special. SMOKEY AND THE MIRACLES deserved a much better send-off.

20675 ::: You Don't Know Jack: The Jack Soo Story (2009) ::: documentary ::: The film tells Jack Soo's story through a montage of film and television clips, rare footage, interviews with family members, friends, co-workers, and others who knew him best. From his early appearances on programs such as The Jack Benny Show and Valentines' Day, Soo's life is examined both in the historical context of the times, and the grandeur of an earlier Hollywood where stars like Soo succeeded in a multitude of artistic mediums, reminiscent of vaudevillian times. From Soo's early training as an announcer and stand-up comic, to his singing, acting and dancing career on Broadway, culminating with his signature role as Detective Nick Yemana, Soo's unique talent and dedication to his craft are fully explored and captured through a dazzling kaleidoscope of images, music, montages, interviews and stories. Featured interview subjects include Nancy Kwan who was Soo's co-star in the film version of Broadway Flower Drum Song; Soo's co-stars on Barney Miller, Max Gail and Steve Landesberg; Hal Kanter, the creator and producer of Valentine's Day and George Takei, Soo's friend and co-star in The Green Berets. The film will also dig deep into Soo's past, including interviews with Soo's daughter and close friends, former Topaz internees, former Motown executive Al Abrams, and others who knew Soo at key points in his life and career. Actor and singer 'Jack Soo (I)' (qv) is seen as a pioneer of the Asian-American in Hollywood. Although he was working in show business as a stand-up comedian and nightclub emcee in San Francisco prior to them, the Broadway musical and then the movie _Flower Drum Song (1961)_ (qv) were his breakthrough vehicles. Although ethnic Japanese (born Goro Suzuki), he was convinced to keep his Chinese stage name Jack Soo - which he originally took when the bombing of Pearl Harbor made being Japanese in the US difficult - for the Broadway musical and the movie because it was about Chinese-Americans, and all the other lead actors were already being played by Japanese.

20679 ::: John Peel's Record Box (2005) ::: documentary ::: An exclusive insight into the private record collection of the renowned DJ and broadcaster, marking the first anniversary of his death. John Peel's priceless record collection threatened to over take his home in Suffolk. But in a small, battered wooden box, the DJ kept a precious selection of 7-inch singles that meant more to him than any of the others. Supported by John's family, and with his son Tom Ravenscroft working as the programme's researcher, this one-hour special reveals the contents of the box. Giving a unique insight into his eclectic tastes, it tells the extraordinary stories behind the records and the artists who created them. John Peel's Record Box also features interviews and anecdotes from close friends and family including his wife Sheila, Sir Elton John, Ronnie Wood, Roger Daltrey, Fergal Sharkey, Jack White and Michael Palin. John's wife, Sheila Ravenscroft, talks about the curious contents of the box; featuring artists as diverse as Status Quo, Sheena Easton, The Yardbirds, Laurie Anderson, Bill Oddie and Nilsson. "When we looked through the box when John died, I was actually quite surprised - quite a few of them didn't seem to make any sense. I was desperate to ask him why that was in - but we'll never know." Peel's reputation for discovering the next great record meant he was inundated by demos sent in by struggling artists. The sheer volume was often overwhelming, as Sheila reveals, "The pressure that he was under sometimes really got him down terribly. He used to get quite depressed about the boxes and boxes of things that he just knew he couldn't get through. And he really wanted to but there just weren't enough hours in the day." Sir Elton John explains the DJ's anti-establishment stance, which spoke to so many of his listeners: "He fought for the underdog and he fought for the small independent labels and he fought for the bands that were making records in their bedrooms or whatever. Because he hated what he saw. Obviously he had a weird mind - I have a weird mind. Every record collector, every aficionado, every collector of anything has got to be a little strange." Fellow Radio 1 DJ Steve Lamacq describes Peel's effect on teenagers. "It was an act of rebellion in itself listening to Peel. Because you were supposed to be in bed and you've got to get up for school. So the mere fact you were actually listening to it was quite a gesture punk rock attitude. You know it was breaking the rules already. He was the classic anti-authority figure. Brilliant. And that's why so many people grew up wanting John Peel to be their dad." But championing unknown artists was not without its letdowns. The programme reveals that Peel felt snubbed by the likes of David Bowie and Marc Bolan once they achieved stardom. His three-year relationship with Bolan certainly didn't survive the singer's success, which made him more cautious with other artists. Sheila reveals: "The real end of the relationship was when Marc had his first big number one record, and then as they became more famous they disappeared out of his life, and that hurt him. We'd been incredibly good friends and felt he didn't want to know us anymore. It was very sad." Finally Jack White, whose band the White Stripes are the most recent additions to the box with 12 of their singles included, pulls out Peel's much-loved track, 'Teenage Kicks' by The Undertones. Jack White: '"This record will make you cry if you really get involved in it. It has made me cry and I know it's made John cry - because he told me."

20760 ::: Roy Lichtenstein (1975) ::: documentary ::: In conversation with Roy Lichtenstein, critic Lawrence Alloway places Pop Art on a continuum of twentieth-century art that includes collage, Dada, and Purism in referring to signs and objects of contemporary society; Lichtenstein argues for distinctions between himself, Warhol, Oldenburg, and others. In his Long Island studio, Lichtenstein works on an elaborate composition; one of his 4 major paintings on the theme "The Artist's Studio." The evolution of this giant canvas, now part of the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, figures prominently in the film. Finalizing his preparatory drawing, Lichtenstein and his assistant follow the laborious processes that will endow the finished painting with its cool and mechanical look; projecting and outlining the drawing onto the canvas, blocking out the large areas and shapes, and painstakingly refining the smaller details. As Lichtenstein himself describes his style, it simulates "the mindless method of industrial process." The lively and elegant "Studio" painting is a prime example of Lichtenstein's parody of enlarged excerpts from works of artists such as Picasso, Matisse, and Leger. Lichtenstein's paintings are about art - its imagery, its stylistic modes. The classic theme of "The Artist's Studio" provides him with a rich subject, within which he is able to quote from his own earlier works as well as from those of the modern masters. The film concludes with the opening of a Pop Art exhibition at New York 's Whitney Museum, where the artist is joined by other pioneers of the movement, including Oldenburg, Rauschenberg, Rivers, and Rosenquist. Roy Lichtenstein died in 1997.

20765 ::: Jonas Mekas and the (Mostly) ::: documentary ::: The guardian of America's experimental cinema, as Jonas Mekas is sometimes called, is at the center of this documentary about the underground film movement. In the 1950s, Mekas began bringing together filmmakers who were working in noncommercial forms, largely in isolation. Over the course of many years, he became colleagues with and/or mentored such luminaries as Martin Scorsese, Andy Warhol, Peter Bogdanovich, Stan Brakhage, Maya Deren, David Lynch, and William Burroughs, recognizing in their work his own mission: to make people see in new ways. This homage to Mekas and to the Anthology Film Archives he founded, which has preserved countless underground films over the decades, eschews nostalgia, offering instead a wealth of heretofore unseen material. Along with interviews by numerous colleagues of Mekas who share their history in and thoughts on the movement and film in general, Visionaries offers excerpts from more than 100 works that challenge narrative convention. A few titles will be easily recognized by enthusiasts (Scorpio Rising; Putney Swope), but the great part of the footage will be new to most viewers. Writer/director Chuck Workman (A House on a Hill, SDFF 23) - best known for his Academy Award-winning short Precious Images and his HBO documentary on the history of mainstream cinema, The First One Hundred Years - takes a long pan across the kooky, the strangely poetic, the sexually adventurous, and the completely abstract expanse. The result is a rich, stimulating experience for the senses, with clip after clip forgoing predictability in favor of immediacy. Visionaries reveals the depth of thought and breadth of approach that characterize the movement; as Mekas himself says, just when you think you've understood what experimental filmmaking is, someone takes it in an entirely new direction.

Amina had accused a young man in her village of rape, but because authorities failed to properly investigate her accusations, she was married to her rapist following a citation from article 475 of the Moroccan penal code. This article dismisses a rapist of his charges as long as he marries his victim. A year after her marriage, Amina swallowed rat poison, walked into the village market, and died. Through this horrifying affair, the film explores the legal, political, religious and social issues that plague Moroccan women - chipping away at the facade of equality that disguises a deep-seated patriarchal system. Underscoring the pervasiveness of this problem, the team filming 475 also discovers that Filali's rape and marriage was only one of four similar incidents that had happened in her small village's recent memory. They also discover that the account of Filali's experience was not as simple as it had been portrayed. While the film highlights the difficulty in determining guilt, it also adeptly showcases the endemic nature of the problem of sexual violence in Morocco.

The drive for change began in the first years of the 20th century, stalled during World War I, and took off during the Roaring 20s, when women cast off corsets and shortened their skirts, no small changes when it came to swinging a golf club. It was a time when girls who had an interest in sports were allowed, even encouraged to pursue those interests to their hearts' content, like never before. And just as the newsreels took notice of champion boxers and big league baseball players, the cameras loved to capture accomplished women golfers competing for trophies. Drawn together by destiny and the sheer will of golf fans, top American champion Glenna Collett and top British champion Joyce Wethered squared off on the revered Old Course at St. Andrews, Scotland in the final round of the 1929 Ladies' British Championship, a match still considered one of the all-time great golf matches. In 1930, Collett served as captain of a team of U.S. women golfers who sailed to England to play an informal match with Britain's top female golfers.

One day, while Mirco is playing with an old rifle, the gun accidentally goes off; the boy is shot in the head. He survives, but loses his sight. At that time, Italian law considered blind people hopelessly handicapped, and did not permit them to attend public school. Hence, young Mirco's parents are forced to shut their son up in a "special school for the blind": the David Chiossone Institute in Genoa. In the beginning Mirco does not accept his new condition. But he is feisty and determined. When he finds an old tape recorder and a few used reels and discovers that by cutting and splicing tape he can create little fairy tales made only of sounds, a brand-new world opens up to him. His new adventure is opposed by the religious authorities that run the boarding school, who are convinced that a blind boy is a disabled person who must not be allowed to harbor illusions. But Mirco will not give up. He continues to fight in every way possible, and he slowly involves his classmates, leading them to rediscover their dreams and capacities. Then one night, with the help of the only sighted child - the daughter of the doorkeeper, with whom Mirco shares a tender friendship - he convinces the small group of boys to sneak out of school and go to the cinema down the street. For all of them, the experience is exhilarating. But the consequences are grim. Mirco is expelled. In the meantime, a broader struggle to change society is taking place outside. 1970's political protests are erupting. Students are taking to the streets. During one of his earlier escapades, Mirco had made friends with Ettore, a blind university student with strong political awareness.

Students and workers protest in front of the Cassone Institute, threatening to shut down the city's blast furnace if Mirco is not re-admitted. As a consequence, the head of the institute is put under investigation. Mirco is finally re-admitted and granted special permission: to change the year-end show. Instead of reciting the usual religious poems, the children put on a performance of their "fairy tale in sound", before an audience of blind-folded, spellbound parents.

Amy follows the chain of responsibility to the top of the world's banks and discovers a secret trillion dollar offshore project - nicknamed The Big Steal - which will cause another global financial meltdown. Can Amy stop The Big Steal in time? Can she persuade Hayden, a handsome but cynical financial journalist and the well-meaning but anarchic Payback Movement to help her? Will she be blamed for the banker deaths? And can Amy ensure her father didn't die in vain? There are many themes which weave their way through The Big Steal, each pulled from the cauldron of contemporary culture. These include exploring the offshore, shadow banking world in which trillions of dollars are taken out of the real economy. The Payback Movement is an activist, anti-bank-fraud movement, inspired by Occupy, Anonymous and the Tax Justice Network. The trigger for the story is a man who can't face the ruination of his small business which he has built up over a life-time. There are stylish elements of Japanese food, fashion and karate. Following the current trend for female protagonists, Dr. Amy Kell is a gutsy, educated woman who flirts with challenging, authoritarian men and even has a 'fifty shades of grey' moment.

Legislators, convinced by actors ranging from scientists to lobbyists, determined that understanding the human genetic code relied on collecting a broad base of genetic information for study. Projects such as the Personal Genome Project rely on thousands of volunteers to submit DNA samples (Callaway, 2008). GINA promises that disclosure of genetic information will not be used to hinder, damage, or otherwise demean these volunteers. In so doing, GINA attempts to guarantee equal treatment regardless of an individual's inherited genetic code. GINA implies that ethics is a part of the process of science by highlighting the right to privacy of research subjects. In so doing, GINA draws on a long history of the protection of privacy, safety and dignity of research subjects (Office of the Secretary of The National Commission for the Protection of Human Subjects of Biomedical and Behavioral Research, 1979).

21390 ::: Call Me Chaos (2016) ::: short ::: When Floh, armed with her accordion, starts one of her songs on the Grand-Place in Brussels, she does so with raucous energy. She has an impulse of rebellion, the strength to go against an excessively established movement, "These mapped-out paths on which we have been placed", dixit her song with the same name as the film. Floh lives on the fringes, plays mainly on the tarmac itself and confronts reality head-on. For her, song is a cry, and singing is to fight. Part of the pure lineage of realist chanson, her songs are like a bandage for our souls, shaken by the dominant chaos. Like the songs of Edith Piaf, she anchors her lyrics in the gloominess of the day-to-day, the tensions of our society and the conflicts of the world. But Floh's poetry is also woven with her personal stories and her dreams, illustrated and animated in the film. The filmmaker's camera follows her, close, sensitively. The world thus appears in the background, dark and blurred. Floh's freedom is as elusive as a breath, the inhalation of the accordion as it fills with air before continuing on her way.

Child after child is driven to tears. Juxtapose these scenes with clips from a more moderate Christian radio host (who is appalled by such tactics), and Jesus Camp seems to pose a clear question: are these children being brainwashed? 'Becky Fischer' (qv) is a Pentacostal minister who holds Evangelical Christian conferences and camps, the latter called "Kids on Fire" which are held in Devil's Lake, North Dakota. She holds the camps in the hopes of teaching Evangelical Christian children to lay down their life for God.

She teaches the children at the camps to be outspoken in their beliefs with a passionate fervor, all in the name of Jesus Christ. Topics presented include the evils of Harry Potter (in Old Testament times, he would have been put to death for being a warlock), the waste of dead churches (where there is no passion in the praising of Jesus), the evils of abortion, and Evangelical Christians taking back government in the United States. The camp attendees soak up the messages like sponges as she is preaching to the converted. Her events are played out against the backdrop of the 'George W. Bush' (qv) presidency, he who speaks to 'Ted Haggard' (qv), the leader of the National Association of Evangelicals, on a weekly basis.

David determines to take his hero's word for it: he submits himself to the expensive TM training, receives his personal mantra and has a go at "yogic flying". But incongruities soon begin to pile up. Among other things, the organization of the humble Indian guru has, in the meantime, grown into an empire worth billions. When the Maharishi dies suddenly, conflict over succession arises.

The young filmmaker sets out on a pilgrimage to the stations of the TM movement.

Once upon a time, a story like this would have been unbelievable, even among those intimate with the workings of Wall Street. But Kozmo.com is now a case study of how an entire economic sector went awry. Just three years ago, Kozmo.com was just an idea in the minds of two 20-something Korean American investment bankers: an online convenience store that made deliveries of snacks, videotapes and other products within a half hour. Beginning in an unfurnished warehouse, co-founders Joseph Park and Yong Kang and their small group of employees did everything from build the website to making deliveries on bicycle. Over the following year their business grew from 10 employees to 3,000 and extended to 11 cities. Like so many other dot-coms, Kozmo.com's growth was something hitherto unseen: It raised more than $250 million and attracted the attention of Starbucks and Amazon.com. But in the tough times following the April 2000 stock market crash, Kozmo found itself in a perilous position-unprofitable and struggling to keep its operations going; and the formerly ubiquitous bicycle-delivery people in orange became and endangered species. e-Dreams stands as an invaluable documentary about the feeding frenzy of success and failure that nearly consumed the nation's economy. A simple idea (online shopping with one hour delivery) turns into a multi-million dollar company in a few years. They raise $250 million in six months and file for IPO. Nothing could stop them...except for the market crash. And the market crashes in April 2000.

21596 ::: Now & Later (2009) ::: drama ::: Bill was a golden boy of the banking industry. Living the good life in Los Angeles, he had a nice house, a good job, and a loving wife. And then he got greedy, lost everything, and was sentenced to an eight-year prison term. Instead of giving up his freedom, he jumps bail. While in hiding, his former driver Luis finds him and offers to get him out of the country. But Bill must hole up for a few days more before the truck will leave. Luis brings Bill to Eddie's, a cheap Central American dive in downtown LA. There, Bill meets Angela, a free spirited Latina. Bill has been on the run for weeks; he's depressed and suicidal. Angela offers to take him in when she discovers he has nowhere to go. Bill had always succeeded when he focused on the future, but finds himself at loose ends with the present. He was always concerned with the next big sale, buying a bigger house, a bigger car. He never learned to stop and enjoy the moment. His ambition and his desire for more power and money is what led him to overextending his reach at the bank and ultimately to a prison sentence. Angela, on the other hand, lives in the now. She doesn't worry about tomorrow - she'll deal with that when it happens. She believes in living life to the fullest and experiencing everything as deeply and as fully as possible. In her apartment, a "living scrapbook," Angela exposes Bill to a whole new way of thinking. She explains how his actions at the bank had far reaching consequences for other people, something he'd never considered. She begins to show him how to live in the now and to really feel things, not just breeze through life focused on what will happen in the future. Angela points out to Bill that his problems were caused by the American way of life. For Angela, who migrated to the States from Nicaragua, a country that had been devastated by civil war, every thing she had or was given was deeply appreciated. As a child, she had very little: the Contras had killed her parents and her grandmother raised her. For Angela, the American way of life - always running, running after more money to buy more things and paying more bills - seemed so disconnected from living. She tells Bill that, "rather than enjoying what you had, you killed yourself for the future." For Angela, sex is another way to live in the now.

21597 ::: Mindhorn (2016) ::: comedy ::: Richard Thorncroft is a has-been British TV actor who used to be famous in the late 1980's for playing the titular and charismatic lead role in the Isle of Man detective show Mindhorn, a character with a Robotic eye that can literally "see the truth". Unfortunately, after becoming a little too pompous and arrogant, Richard ends up insulting both the Isle of Man and his fellow cast members on the Wogan chat-show, including his on-screen and real life love interest Patricia DeVille, (Effie Davies) his Stuntman, (Simon Farnaby) and bit-part costar Peter Easterman. (Steve Coogan) He decides to leave to try and make it big in Hollywood, but 25 years later and he's balding in a flat in North London and has recently been replaced for an orthopaedic sock advert by John Nettles, much to his chagrin. He is even more jealous that Easterman now fronts a long running spin-off show which has far eclipsed the success of Mindhorn. Richard has an unexpected opportunity to reignite his career though when a delusional criminal calling himself "The Kestrel" (Russell Tovey) starts terrorising the Isle of Man and, having an extremely unhealthy obsession with the show, demands to talk only to Mindhorn. Relishing a chance for publicity, Richard dons his turtleneck and robot eye, aggravates the police with his method acting, tries to rekindle his old romance with Patricia and also attempts to sign a Mindhorn DVD deal with Easterman. With his 80's political incorrectness, solo musical single, useless cyborg eyepatch and cheesy one-liners, Mindhorn is here to bring an Apocalypse of Justice. It's truth time.
21598 ::: Louder Than a Bomb (2010) ::: documentary ::: Hailed as "one of the most inspiring and exhilarating documentaries in years" (Steve Pond, The Wrap), Louder Than a Bomb tells the story of four Chicago high school poetry teams as they prepare for and compete in the world's largest youth slam. By turns hopeful and heartbreaking, the film captures the turbulent lives of these unforgettable kids, exploring the ways writing shapes their world, and vice versa. Louder Than a Bomb is not about "high school poetry" as we often think of it. It's about language as a joyful release, irrepressibly talented teenagers obsessed with making words dance. While the topics they tackle are often deeply personal, what they put into their poems-and what they get out of them-is universal: the defining work of finding one's voice.

21602 ::: The Hunt (2016/VI) ::: documentary ::: Peter's modus operandi is he works alone with a selection of classic music, preferably opera. On the very day of my visit, opera was the choice of music setting the tone of our interview. His various trinkets around the atelier indicated a life fully lived. Of course, this made me wonder why would a man who has had this joie de vivre return to the places that were remote. He indicated that his solitude was what allowed him to see nature's subtle play on colours. Brush stroke after brush stroke of laying colours until it took hues of golden rays caress on an autumn day made all the more sense. This was Peter's vision which he took as souvenirs from these lands and transplanted them in his studio. His diligent appliance of colours created a harmony in his paintings that is perhaps lost on today's art scene. Louder, bolder, more shocking seems to be the theme of the day. As jarring as this is, the world can do with some balancing of yin yang, how about some classic rendition of landscapes.

21611 ::: 80 mq - Ottantametriquadri (1993) ::: romance ::: A musical theme with five movements; a prism with five facets, five sides of the same solid body, or relatively solid, like the obligatory relationship between men and women, five colors with tonal gradations for a picture of a situation that's increasingly more abstract and rarefied, about games of affection and sentiment, tender, arrogant, unaware, at times cruel indecisive and extreme. Five different stories in eighty square meters of space that's limited, coercive and reassuring in which tensions and intentions bounce off the walls, multiplying and creating a web of trajectories that imprison the main characters. Alternately ironic and cynical, at times moving, it has a minimum common denominator: for now in the clash of feelings, in the web of love, the truce, the solution for tranquility still seems far away. But we're all working to find it.

"The Sandmine" is a journey deep into a forgotten part of German-Italian history. In six chapters and 24 episodes the web documentary employs a distinct mixture of animation and documentation to uncover war crimes that seemed long buried under the sand. In September 1943 the alliance between Germany and Italy collapsed. 650,000 Italian soldiers were carted off to Germany and subjected to hard labour. Some came to the Kopp and Co arms factory in Treuenbrietzen near Berlin. In the final days of the war, the factory camp was cleared by members of the German armed forces. The Italian forced labourers were driven to a sandpit just outside the village. 127 of them were shot dead. Four survived. The massacre was forgotten. But then the past was recalled. When the residents of Treuenbrietzen were confronted with the incident, it brought back memories of other wartime atrocities that had long been buried deep inside the villagers' collective memory. THE SANDMINE is a journey inside memory in Italy and Germany. The film exposes a war crime that had been buried in the sand. It is a documentary about the forgetting of violence, the concealment of guilt and responsibility in the face of history.

22005 ::: Lincoln-Douglas Galesburg Debate (1994) ::: history ::: Stephen A. Douglas, the incumbent senator, and Abraham Lincoln, a former congressman and current attorney, met for the fifth in a series of seven debates for the right to represent Illinois in the Senate. They debated the issues of the day before an outdoor crowd in Galesburg, Illinois. Mr. Douglas and Mr. Lincoln again directed charges and counter-charges at each other and reiterated their positions enumerated during the previous debates. Mr. Douglas again emphasized the notions of popular sovereignty and black inferiority, and he also accused Mr. Lincoln of duplicity depending on the part of the state in which he was speaking. Mr. Lincoln again defended himself and accused Mr. Douglas of not addressing the morality of slavery. This fifth debate is most significant for two main reasons. First, although Galesburg leaned Republican, the larger area in the center of the state was divided between Democratic and Republican supporters. One can see in their oratorical exertions that the debaters were trying to persuade the more undecided voters of this region as opposed to the more partisan voters in northern and southern sections of the state. Second, Mr. Lincoln's emphasis on the moral issues surrounding slavery denoted a shift and a clear difference from Douglas' procedural arguments. These moral issues would continue to be important in the last two debates and the presidential campaign of 1860. This was the fifth of seven re-enactments of the Lincoln-Douglas senatorial debates in 1858. This debate occurred on October 7, 1858 from 2:30 to 5:30 pm.

22236 ::: PanchaTantra (2017) ::: short ::: PanchaTantra started out as a concept for an experimental/silent short film. The goal was to tell a compelling, human story without relying on traditional human tropes. The film explores the cyclical and, sometimes, mundane nature of life and universal concepts like love, loss, yearning, and nostalgia. Eventually, this concept evolved into a music video idea that had found the perfect companion in a great song by an up and coming Los Angeles band. Though the video only took two days to film, because it was practically a no budget production the editing process stretched into a nearly 6 month process - color keying, rotoscoping, and motion tracking can be a very time consuming endeavor. Unfortunately for us (and fortunately for the band), in the time it took to edit the video the song had gone viral on SoundCloud, and with record label interest, just as we were nearing completion of the video, the band was unable to move forward with any "official" video releases. After having invested so much time and effort into the project, we at Flying Pig Army decided there must be a way to save the video. Armed with our original concept, and some great footage, we went back to the drawing board and after several edits and re-edits emerged with a final video that has exceeded even our own expectations. After all the challenges this project encountered we are happy to say that we truly feel the finished product is not only the best incarnation of PanchaTantra, but the one it was always meant to be. Most people that watch the film enjoy it for the visuals, but look deeper and you will find there is a narrative, there is a message, there is meaning.

Naomi Klein rebelled from her liberal, feminist mother until Mark Lepine gunned down fourteen women in what became known as the Montreal Massacre. It was then she realized people were dying for the beliefs her mother fought for, and that realization awakened the activist within her. After both events, Hayden and Klein dedicated their lives to telling the truth about the world, and doing everything in their power to not use subjects like "they," but use "we" instead. It is that distinction that defines their journalism to this day.

In Who's Driving the Dreambus? filmmakers Boris and Claire Jänsch go on a personal journey through a series of interviews with eminent spiritual teachers, philosophers and writers - in a quest to unravel what it means to be alive. This radical and challenging documentary, ventures into the heart of the mystery of identity, flipping the idea of spiritual endeavour on its head, revealing a message so profound and yet so simple that it might just end the search. Narrated by Boris Jänsch, the film opens with extraordinary footage from his actual birth filmed by his father, and it becomes clear early on that Boris' search for answers has until now been somewhat unfulfilled. This poetic and uncompromising film comes full circle as it examines birth, death and asks the big questions. No spiritual stone is left unturned as the interviews also tackle wide-ranging topics including suffering, choice and free will, enlightenment and meaning. At times uncomfortably honest but equally humorous Who's driving the Dreambus? is unlike any film in its genre to date and delivers a message with a radically non-dualistic flavour. If you have a treasured belief system, whether it's based on religion, agnosticism or indeed atheism, then this film may be a hard pill to swallow - because what this film is pointing to is the end of individuality. You may have been searching for answers your whole life but are you ready to acknowledge that there might not be any? As Tony Parsons puts it: 'Oneness creates the idea of being a separate individual and goes around looking for something called not being a separate individual... it's a joke, it's the biggest joke in town'.

22448 ::: Undaunted: The Forgotten Giants of the Allegheny Observatory (2012) ::: documentary ::: This film tells the surprising story of how the Allegheny Observatory has been a world leader in the study of the stars since the 1860s.

Among its many distinctions, the Allegheny Observatory is often regarded as the birthplace of astrophysics, laid the foundation for climate and solar energy research, had made major discoveries in planetary science, and have discovered and studied planets outside our solar system. Samuel Pierpont Langley made the first truly scientific studies of the principles of flight and published a textbook on the subject in 1891. He was also the first person to fly a documented heavier-than-air powered flying machine in 1896. Starting with only a grade school education, John Brashear taught himself physics and astronomy to become one of the world's foremost scientific instrument makers. Among his many accomplishments, he made the highly precise optical apparatus for one of the most famous physics experiments ever performed, the Michelson Morley experiment. This experiment revolutionized all of physics and provided crucial evidence to support Einstein's theory of special relativity. UNDAUNTED is the story of ingenious minds in a little known place, whose remarkable stories of tenacity and determination in the pursuit of furthering science and technology have nearly been forgotten. Features interviews with Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson of the American Museum of Natural History, Dr. Tom Crouch of the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum, Dr. George Gatewood of the University of Pittsburgh, and Dr. William Fickinger of Case Western Reserve University.

22478 ::: Plan-c (2002) ::: short ::: A vibrating line on a white background, which scans across the computer-generated plane. The soundtrack also suggests disquiet.

We see a production line and working hands in repetitive motion which belong to the four protagonists and makers of this video, Harald Holba, Elke Mayr, Manuel Maxl and Ines Weber, the artist collective plan-c. The production line is presented as a possible venue for ritualized work processes. Unrecognizable objects or products are placed in green boxes which indicate that production process is intact. The same movements are performed again and again. The repetitious, almost tormenting soundtrack, a loop, reinforces the monotony of the action. The video progresses toward a climax which is formally set off by two components: The camera angles gradually concentrate on the scenery, and the speed increases steadily. The image wobbles, begins to fray; its movements accelerate, and it withdraws again and again to the vibrating line, never coming to rest. Expansion and collapse alternate. The human figures follow its example. Standstill signifies the end. And suddenly the climax comes. Enough is enough. The objects which have just been produced are thrown to the floor. Work stops. The colour green no longer defines the territory, it has been replaced by red, which in this context signifies STOP. (Dietmar Schwärzler)

After a few chance encounters in the hotel, they end up spending much of their time hanging out together, each helping the other deal with their feelings of loss in their current lives. The friendship that develops between the two, which is not always a bumpy-free one, may be just for this specific place and time, but it may also have long lasting implications.

Is this as good as it gets? Bob and Charlotte find each other fulfilling certain needs. Charlotte needs Bob's attention and humor, and Bob needs someone he can talk to (Bob "talks" with his wife, but they are not really talking). Bob helps Charlotte by answering her questions regarding life and direction, while Charlotte helps Bob by reminding him how much he loves his children and his wife. Americans abroad, almost innocents. Charlotte, fresh out of Yale with a degree in philosophy, is in Tokyo with her husband, a photographer whose work takes him away that week. She's adrift, her soul on ice. Bob, mid-50s, a semi-retired movie star, is there to make $2 million doing a whisky ad. At home are a wife and young children, but he's jaded and melancholy. Both are jet-lagged, and Tokyo's culture and language push them further off kilter. When they meet in the hotel bar and spend their free time together for a few days, possibilities arise amidst the losses. Their friendship becomes an experience: does he have something to teach; can she reconnect him to life?

22577 ::: Heder 514 (2012) ::: drama ::: In this disturbing, realistic debut a determined young female soldier interrogates an officer. Contrary to her colleagues' advice she accuses him of beating up an Arab family. She perseveres against the abuse of power in the army. A female Israeli soldier is ordered to interrogate an Israeli officer who is alleged to have abused an Arab family. Lower in rank and also a woman, she is barely taken seriously by the haughty man; he only gives her sarcastic answers. Her colleagues, including her lover, advise her to stop the case - because it is too political, too complex and too notorious. Instead, she fastens her teeth in it, in the hope of getting justice for the victims. In the meantime she has the thumbscrews tightened by her lover and his intended. All the interrogations take place in room 514, where the sound palette is formed only by voices and the air conditioning. Room 514 is a courageous, hyper-realistic, low-budget drama that provides a worrying and critical picture of Israeli Army culture, where young soldiers discover that good and evil, black and white, don't exist. This debut film filled with expressive, hand-held shots was recorded in only a few days. Anna spends much of her life in stark Room 514 in the building in which she works, it her office and in a job she will be leaving in three weeks. It is there that she conducts most of her interviews in her job as a military police officer, specifically as an interrogator, for the Israeli Army. Her current case is investigating the unwarranted beating of a Palestinian civilian in front of his family in the Occupied Territories by an unknown person in the Israeli Army. It is there that she and her casual boyfriend, her commanding officer Erez, have their quickies, both who are having some issues with commitment, but each in slightly different ways. And it is there where other issues in her personal life invade, such as the continual telephone calls from her dependent mother who wants her to deal with the increasing minutiae in their collective lives, or a young woman named Michali barging in unannounced somewhat accusing her of sleeping with her boyfriend. Much like the four walls of the room are confining in a physical manner, they may also be confining in a holistic manner, the things that happen there which have far reaching consequences beyond that space and her own life which she may not realize. She may be able to break free in an emotional sense once she is discharged, that is if she does make out of that space.

After making successful escape, the two conspirators meet and lay their final plan to accomplish the ultimate result of smuggling goods across the boundary. The goods are secured and saddled over the shoulder of one of the men while the other provides himself with a bag of feathers. The latter proceeds to the boundary and engages the official in an altercation when he bursts the bag of feathers over the head of the unsuspecting officers and runs in the opposite direction.

22822 ::: 1700 kelvin (2012) ::: documentary ::: At present, the people of Jangalmahal are in a real state of horror. However, given the recent changes in the political landscapes of West Bengal, this current state of fear is not happening in isolation, rather, it is intertwined with previous incidents that have taken place in Amlashol, Singur, Lalgarh and Netai. In all these cases, we have seen the dreadfulness of the ruling party and the grit of the peoples' resistance there. The bloodiness of the peoples' resistance not only shook the ignominious foundation of the ruling party of West Bengal, but also has brought changes into the urban life that we live in the modern days. It was on November 8, 2008 that I, along with some dignitaries, went to Jangalmahal. I saw the plight of my tribal co-citizens and their anger towards the injustices that they have been subjected to over all these years. Since that day, I have always felt the need to document the lives of the residents of Jangalmahal, and that, on film. It was however, the massacre at Netai (January, 2011) that broke my slumber and has made this film possible. Sixty three years have passed since independence. The people of Jangalmahal have barely seen any fruit of economic and infrastructural development that India has gone through in the last sixty years. This area, which, could have prospered boundlessly, still remains as one of the poorest areas in the entire nation. For the time being, however, the local residents of Jangalmahal chose to forget this history of deprivation, because they have more important things to worry about. It is their honor which is at stake, and they have to stand up for their own selves to defend it. It is also their forest, which is at stake, and now they have to save it. The film has not taken any pedagogical approach. It is rather a "white story" about a black-green forest and their people who live in it and on it. I dedicate this film to every murdered, evicted and molested fellow co-citizens of Jangalmahal.

23049 ::: O.T. (1999) ::: short ::: Making and listening to music are physical processes embedded in social movements, writes Simon Frith. This fact is important with regard to the visual characters of electronic music productions to the extent that it is normally negated. The sensorial complexity of these practices seem to be reproducible only through the precision and abstraction of digital data. Michaela Grill's visual work makes use of a concrete wall as the smallest identifiable element of urban music culture which forms a space. The visual organization of this barely recognizable representational surface is resolved through Takeshi Fumimoto's musical structure. The images illustrate neither the tone nor the rhythm; they follow the logic of the acoustic blueprint to create new forms of hearing through the processing of the found sounds. The camera makes a parallel searching movement along the rough surface. The images, which cannot be isolated, resist a representational aesthetic, and fleeting spatial landscapes and forms which illustrate non-repeatability and improvisation appear in the tension between concentration on the cracks and fractures and the camera's movement across them. Reduction to the plastic and sensorial basis sensitizes the viewer's gaze by making the structure comprehensible. (Christa Benzer)

Detroit, once an industrial powerhouse of a lost American era, is a city devastated by the loss of half its population due to the collapse of manufacturing. By the looks of it, the city has died. But now, against all odds, in the empty lots, in the old factory yards, and in-between the sad, sagging blocks of company housing, seeds of change are taking root. With the most vacant lots in the country, citizens are reclaiming their spirits by growing food. A small group of dedicated citizens have started an urban environmental movement with the potential to transform not just a city after its collapse, but also a country after the end of its industrial age. Urban Roots shows dedicated Detroiters working tirelessly to fulfill their vision for locally-grown, sustainably farmed food in a city where people - as in much of the county - have found themselves cut off from real food and limited to the lifeless offerings of fast food chains, mini-marts, and grocery stores stocked with processed food from thousands of miles away. The people of Detroit have taken on the enormous task of changing this for themselves, and to understand their story is to understand how we can change it for us all. Urban Roots is a story that reveals that the best in us can prevail in the most difficult of times; and in the most difficult of places, new hope emerges. This growing movement of urban farmers is changing the way people think about food-and life in the "D". It took men like Henry Ford, William Durant, and Lee Iacocca to build this city, but it's taken a bunch of strong willed self-taught urban farmers to save it.

Another man enters the same party at the same instant and sees the chandelier, the way a shadow falls through the back of a chair and casts bars of light onto the floor behind. If asked to describe this same moment in time to a stranger, that stranger would no doubt conclude that these two men were in two completely different places. When in fact, they were in the same place at the very same instant! Perception explores this breach of experience by glancing into the lives of three individuals: Clarissa, Ralph and Tobias. After the typical college experience, Clarissa moved to NYC. She quickly became jaded, and in time, working her job as an Administrative Assistant came to compromise her self-respect. She felt as one of the common many--a "sell out." And she quit. Today, she lives as a homeless person on the streets of New York. Her brother Ralph--a successful real estate salesman--lives on the 20th floor of 59th Street and Central Park South. He both detests and pities Clarissa. Tobias is a waiter and perpetual student. He has taken night classes for close to ten years, but refuses to take what is required to garner a degree. Perception journeys through the same month of time from each character's point of view, detailing how presumption and mistaken intention leads to great misunderstanding. A moment, revisited from another point of view, takes new dimension--and protagonist and antagonist change places. Perception shines a light upon the curtain that isolates us--the fundamental breach in perspective from one individual to the next.

The result is that an unambiguous reading of the picture, to say nothing of their positioning in a fictive room cannot even be attempted. This type of calculated picture removal is carried to the point where the film strip is stopped in the projector (and hence the title) and burns. (Michael Palm)

23335 ::: Intent to Destroy (2017) ::: documentary ::: Academy AwardŽ nominated director 'Joe Berlinger' (qv) embeds himself on the epic film set of 'Terry George (I)' (qv)'s _The Promise (2016/II)_ (qv) to take an unwavering look at the Armenian Genocide. Historians, scholars and filmmakers come together in Berlinger's cinematic exploration of the tangled web of responsibility that has driven a century of denial by the Turkish government and its strategic allies. _Intent to Destroy (2017)_ (qv) is a timely reckoning with the large-scale suppression of a historical tragedy. Berlinger confronts the fraught task of shedding light on the Armenian Genocide - whose witnesses and descendants are still fighting to be officially acknowledged as such by the international community - how it was carried out during World War I as the reign of the Ottoman Empire drew to a close, and how it laid the groundwork for the genocides that followed. After several failed attempts, Academy Award-winning filmmaker 'Terry George (I)' (qv) finally directs _The Promise (2016/II)_ (qv), the first mainstream fiction feature about the 1915 Armenian Genocide in which 1.5 million people were killed by Ottoman Turks. Recognizing the highly politicized nature of shooting a sweeping First World War - era epic about one of the most contested events in contemporary history, documentary legend 'Joe Berlinger' (qv) embeds with the production. Combining emotional behind-the-scenes experiences of its cast with rarely seen archival materials of the atrocities being dramatized, Berlinger restores the human dimension of a dark history. As he digs deeper into the genocide's suppression, he turns up an astonishing campaign by the Turkish government to control the narrative of the massacre, one that reaches directly to Toronto's own film community. This thoroughly original film-within-a-film lays bare the plight of a people, both past and present, still seeking acknowledgement. Pulling back the curtain on censorship in Hollywood due to U.S. government pressure to appease a strategic ally, _Intent to Destroy (2017)_ (qv) embeds with a historic feature production as a springboard to explore the violent history of the Armenian Genocide and legacy of Turkish suppression and denial over the past century.

23345 ::: The Mexican Sweethearts (1909) ::: short ::: The experience of Tantalus was never so chafing as a tantalizing sweetheart. The strength of this is better understood when we realize the impetuous nature of the Latin type of person. The Senorita, to tease her sweetheart, pretends love for an American soldier, and for a while it looks as if the little detachment of soldiers would be forced to bestow the last military honors on one of their number. However, by a clever trick, Senorita rights the impending wrong; the soldier escapes without a scar, and the sweethearts are left enjoying their cigarettes. This subject, while being short, is one of the most beautiful pieces of high-class acting ever attempted, the leading character being played by a native Spaniard.

23367 ::: Garage 2.0 (2016) ::: documentary ::: In this funny, abrasive and moving portrait of the Kooijman car dealership, we watch as the company struggles to survive during the recession. Anyone accustomed to working in an office environment is certain to find many scenes familiar - and funny in a cringeworthy way. The viewer is invited to sit in on a performance review meeting between the boss and one of his employees. The auto mechanic gets to hear that "There's never much of a friendly expression on your face - unless you're in a bar, that is." A lack of friendliness is most certainly not a good thing, and "customer experience" is what it's all about. When it comes to marketing strategy, the Nespresso machine is Kooijman's great example. Elsewhere, the camera follows the daily lives of several employees. And so we learn about life outside the world of targets, customer experience and customer satisfaction in scenes filmed with a photographic eye, dialogues that seem to have been written for the stage, and just the occasional voice-over. It raises the issue of how "work" is viewed in this sector - or perhaps all sectors - in the Netherlands. The filmmaker also questions the high price we are prepared to pay for status and recognition. Images of damaged cars brought into Kooijman's garage contrast sharply with glamorous shots of car shows, leather gearshift knobs and glistening race cars.

23369 ::: Occupied Palestine (1981) ::: documentary ::: Long before the first Intifada drew international media to focus on Palestinian life under Israeli rule, David Koff produced this in-depth portrait of the daily conflict being waged in Israel/Palestine. It was recently rediscovered. With a combination of candid interviews and remarkable historic footage, Occupied Palestine unpicks the strategic and ideological motors of Israeli rule in Palestine, powerfully depicting that the roots of today's crises were firmly planted in the ground decades ago. Met with bomb threats and censorship on its initial release in the US in 1981, Occupied Palestine remains a singular work of engaged filmmaking and a unique record of an overlooked chapter in the course of the conflict.
23370 ::: Three Cornered Moon (1933) ::: comedy ::: Nellie Rimplegar has to tell her grown children that due to her bungled handling of their finances, the family has been wiped out by the Stock Market crash.

Stevens faces competition from Elizabeth's beau, Ronald, a free-loading writer who remains oblivious to her money woes.
23371 ::: La luz prodigiosa (2003) ::: drama ::: Joaquin comes back to Granada in the eighties trying to find out about something happened when he was a child and the Spanish Civil War was going on. He helped an unknown man who survived after being executed. He finds the man, Galapago, who is now quite old, poor and with almost no memory. Joaquin takes care of him and finds hints that point to Galapago as Federico García Lorca. I saw this Spanish film at the library at Middlebury College when I was working on my M.A. in Spanish. By the end of the film, I was gasping in sobs. It's been nearly 10 years since I've seen this amazing movie so I don't remember all the details, but I will tell you that it was gripping - especially since I've admired García-Lorca forever. As Joaquín works with the homeless old gentleman who has just vague, intermittent memories of his prior life due to a grave injury to his head, there is more and more evidence that the man is indeed Federico García-Lorca. The one scene that stands out for me is when Joaquín brings him to the theatre where they are showing "The House of Bernarda Alba" and you can see on the old gentleman's face intimate recognition of the play. Of course, at the end there's no conclusion as to the man's identity, so it's up to you to decide whether or not this was García-Lorca. I'd rather live believing that Franco's Fascist regime did NOT kill one of the best poets and playwrights of the 20th century.
23372 ::: The Virgin Whore (2018) ::: documentary ::: A documentary film shot between Medellin, Colombia and Zurich, Switzerland that portraits the struggling life of a retired prostitute.

23375 ::: De sentido común (2015) ::: documentary ::: Phrases like "we have lived beyond our possibilities" and "we must tighten our belts", seem to have found a place in the language of popular wisdom, introduced by the insistence of the mass media and supported by the apparently scientific analysis of "expert" economists. Away from the noise and media frenzy, a small communal radio aims to explore the elements that make up the prism through which we interpret reality and with which the common sense is formed in a society beset by the economic crisis and by the loss of social rights. The discourse that is emitted from the faculties of economy and the most influential think tanks, conflicts with the wisdom that is growing in the margins of the knowledge production spheres that are officially recognized. At this juncture, what is at stake goes far beyond the world of ideas.

Quebec humorist and radio and television host Paul Houde travels to Austria to share this special moment with his father, age 72, and his son, age 12. Alain Cirou, a scientific popularizer and editor of the magazine Ciel & Espace, gives a running commentary live on national radio as he observes the eclipse in France. In Germany, Olivier Staiger is part of a group that uses the latest technology to capture the event live for the Internet. In India, Debasis Sakar, accompanied by his wife, two year old son and four other friends, travel 4,000 km under difficult conditions so his son can see his first eclipse. The tension mounts as the countdown to totality begins : nothing is certain. Indeed, despite technological advances, eclipse enthusiasts are always at the mercy of the weather. will Alain, Paul, Olivier and Debasis get to see the eclipsed Sun? Emotions swing from anxiety to ecstasy to disappointment, with the camera capturing their worried looks, smiles and scarcely suppressed tears. Nothing has changed over the centuries. From the legends of different religions and cultures to explain the mysteries of the world to the quest of the film's protagonists, human beings have always sought some sign of their connection to the cosmos. Shadow Chasers is a poetic meditation on humanity's place in the universe and bears witness to the transformative power of wonder.
23378 ::: Curley (1947) ::: comedy ::: Hal Roach, who no longer owned the rights to his "Our Gang" (aka The Little Rascals") creation, decided to "create" a similar gang of kids, to be known as "Curley and his Gang", and star them in feature-length films shot in Cinecolor. This film is the first effort, and is virtually a remake, with longer running time, of the 1930 "Our Gang" short, "Teacher's Pet." The kids are fretting because their favorite teacher has gotten married and departed town, and they fear her replacement will be not to their liking. When Curley mistakes the aunt of the new replacement as being the new teacher, he and the rest of the kids make plans to discourage her staying. Mortification sets in when the new teacher turns out to be sweet, young and pretty. Jackie Cooper and June Marlowe had the smitten kid/teacher roles in the original. Robert F. McGowan, who directed and wrote the original short, gets story credit here, and was also the Associate Producer.
23379 ::: Conclusive Evidence (2016) ::: documentary ::: For a long time we followed the work of the forensic investigation unit, those men and women in white coveralls who walk around the crime scenes like ghosts. The unit we joined is headed by Doron, a veteran investigator, a well kempt man with a dark sense of humor. Andrea also works in the unit, mother of two, a fragile woman with the face of an angel. At first glance one cannot fathom how she functions at scenes such as the Tel Aviv Gay Center shooting, the murder of the Osherenko family and more. The third protagonist is Zviki, who from day one in the unit has been accompanying the team to crime scenes. This is the first documentation of the unit's work in the field not as a news reporter but over an extended period of time, whereas the stories of our protagonists and the scenes they encounter form a profound testament to the emotional processes they undergo.

In the summer of 1971, Philip Zimbardo, Craig Haney, and Curtis Banks carried out a psychological experiment to test a simple question.

After only six days, the planned two-week study spun out of control and had to be ended to prevent further abuse of the prisoners. This dramatic demonstration of the power of social situations is relevant to many institutional settings, such as the Abu Ghraib Prison in Iraq.

23540 ::: Ju-Ni Hitoe oder die Entdeckung der Seele (1994) ::: documentary ::: Minako Seki, Sayoko Onishi and Yumiko Yoshioka belong to the tatoeba - Théâtre Danse Grotesque. Their expressive performance contains elements of contemporary Butoh dance but is also a parable on the Asian world of sensibility and irrationality and the way modern Japanese women see themselves. The central idea for this experimental Butoh dance film are life's metamorphoses. A method of filming was developed which draws the camera right into the intensity of the dance movements. This heightened sensual concentration allows the viewer to correspond intensely with the dance itself. "JU-NI HITOE" is a symbol of ancient Japanese Culture dating back to the 9th century. "JU-NI HITOE" means "the twelve-layered robe" and refers to twelve kimonos worn on top of each other in descending colours, each with gold embroidery. Today these are worn as state garments by the Japanese Emperor and his family on special occasions. For many Japanese women this clothing represents not only the dignity of tradition but also serves as a reminder of the social restrictions of their traditional role. Metres of long trains of material only allow a small, carefully marked sphere of ritualised movement and prevent any form of spontaneity. The garments can be seen as a symbol for a hard exterior protecting a soft centre, but also represent the thick walls and psychological barriers which bind and imprison one's innermost being. The decisive starting point for our film was the desire to make the creation and execution of the dance movements both visible and tangible. The film concentrates, therefore, on the completely different emotions of the three female dancers; it is an intense examination of the human body's capacity for expression, the sensual power of which we sought to emphasise by filming in sparce, unusual locations. The film focuses on the vocabulary of Butoh. The language of this dance is direct, immediate.

23603 ::: Crater of Death (1998) ::: documentary ::: Crater of Death - BBC Horizon In 1979, evidence was first uncovered of the impact that wiped out the dinosaurs and seven-tenths of all life on Earth. It took years of detective work to uncover the clues that led to the 200km wide crater. It is the product of one of the biggest explosions on Earth since the emergence of life. From scientific investigation of the crater itself, the story of this mass extinction is now revealed. Sixty-five million years ago, the age of the dinosaurs ended, along with seven-tenths of all life on Earth. Today, the evidence is clear that a comet struck the Earth with a force hundreds of times greater than the combined nuclear arsenals of the world at the height of the Cold War. This was the killer and Ground Zero is the fishing village of Chicxulub in Mexico. This film lays out what has been proved in the 20 years since the first appearance of evidence that an extraterrestrial impact was responsible for the death of the dinosaurs. Through CGI animation, the film gives an idea of how precisely such an explosion could have wiped out so much life on the planet. It took hundreds, perhaps thousands, of years for the climatic effects of the impact to be shaken off. However, the dinosaurs might have survived the blast but for one piece of very bad luck: the relatively rare rocks that formed much of the seabed (now part of the Yucatan peninsula in Mexico) vaporised by the comet. There is also some evidence that the comet followed the plot of a Hollywood disaster movie on steroids: it may have been a very, very bad day for North America. The KT mass extinction and the crater in the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico are at the centre of a vast web of research and dispute from many different branches of science: geophysics, astronomy, palaeontology, planetary science, geochemistry and remote sensing. Whilst researching this film, it became clear that the impact has been not just on the dinosaurs themselves but also on some dinosaurs of science. The discovery of a thin iridium-rich rock (the first evidence of an impact) has forced palaeontologists to look in much greater detail at the fossil record. Eighteen years ago, they widely rejected, even scorned, the idea that an impact could have caused the mass extinction; they said that the fossil record simply did not show it. What they now find is that plants and animals on land and sea were waxing and waning before the impact, then, at the impact horizon, the vast majority disappear. Considering the consequences of the impact, this is hardly surprising. The evolution of life in the ten million years spanning the impact's effects is now revealed at a much greater resolution than the rest of the fuzzy fossil record. It makes you wonder what else will be revealed if it is ever again subjected to such detailed investigation.

23609 ::: Expedition Jemen: 52 grader i skuggan (2013) ::: adventure ::: "You'll die. Or get kidnapped by Al Qaeda. What you want to do is impossible!" That is what all experts, analysts and the Yemenis themselves told me. But I have done the impossible. I have made my way into what many say is one of the most difficult countries in the world to enter, and one of the most dangerous. Together with the Swedish journalist, Tanya Holm, Kensington the Camel and a few of the oldest inhabitants of Arabia, the Bedus, I have traveled through one of the hottest deserts on earth. We didn't meet any terrorists, religious extremists and nobody got killed. I didn't even feel any serious fear. What we found during this adventurous walk, in our search of the real Arabia, was a Middle Eastern country very different from the one portrayed in the global media. Yemen is far too often painted as the axis of evil in media as regards to Al Qaeda, deadly drones and being a country near collapse. This is wrong. It is true it is a divided country, this oldest of all Arab countries. But it is kept together by the tribes and a lot of the answers about the Middle East are to be found in its oldest inhabitants, the Bedu. My Expedition covers current affairs, culture, people, adventure and doing the impossible. And present developments in the Middle East will put a Yemen in focus, so this film is really important for a fair perspective.

23872 ::: Twilight of the Yakuza (2013) ::: documentary ::: The Yakuza, Japan's organised crime syndicates, are a dying breed. Their members are aging and the government of Japan has launched a large-scale crackdown on them to eradicate them once and for all. But who are the Yakuza? The cancer of a nation or a necessary evil in a country with one of the lowest crime rates in the industrialised world? Undoubtedly the Yakuza are involved in crimes including extortion, fraud, murder, drugs and gambling. However, Japan has one of the lowest crime rates in the industrialised world, with crimes related to drugs - officially against the Yakuza code of honour - or street gangs strikingly low, a fact that many contribute to the presence of the Yakuza. Deeply rooted in Japanese society, they are seen as a necessary evil and 'problem solvers'. They have been around since the 1700s and were said to protect the weak from the strong, following a rigorous code of honour. Several clans even contributed aid for the victims of the recent earthquake and Tsunami, all reasons why the public perception of the Yakuza in Japan is not solely a negative one. Unlike the Mafia, the Yakuza is a legal, public group making them relatively easy to check on. Their offices are public, their members registered by the police and Yakuza members went as far as freely admitting their guilt in cases of crime investigations, as a part of their code of honour. In reaction to strict government measures against them, the Yakuza has ceased all cooperation with the law. As the police concentrate their resources on the Yakuza, many criminals simply don't register with clans anymore and start operating underground, evading the grasp of police. A clear trend is emerging towards a new structure of organised crime in Japan, resulting in a steep decrease in the numbers of the traditional Yakuza while the underground is soaring - including foreign Russian and Chinese mafias. This documentary deals with the struggle of the Yakuza for its survival and the restructuring of the organized crime scene in Japan. Furthermore, unprecedented access to the secret world of the Yakuza gives you an insight on who the Yakuza really are: criminals, outcasts, but also family men and a part of Japanese society.

Avoiding unhelpful media representations of undocumented migrants that further subjugates their social status as 'other' to the white westerner, the metaphorical journey within Rite of Passage deftly reverses subjective representation, placing the semi-fictional protagonist, son of a former high-ranking G4S exec, within the mindset of the detainee awaiting deportation.

My father was the Fire Chief in West for more than 30 years and was named Texas Volunteer Firefighter of the Year in 1993. He recruited many of the men who lost their lives in this disaster.

Through family interviews, Kris chronicles her father's life and the development of the problem, which clinical professionals have addressed as a symptom of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Part personal, and part informational, Packrat takes a look at what it's like to grow up in a family where hoarding is an issue. Filmmaker Kris Montag's father chained a row of shopping carts to the front-yard fence of the family's Brooklyn home. He piled stacks of old newspapers in the kitchen until it became impossible to use the sink; when his wife threw them away, he became furious. The father of cinematographer and co-producer Jessica Jennings lives on a farm, so his ""collecting"" is less obvious, until he takes you into his enormous barn, filled to the ceiling with items he thinks might be useful someday. Hoarding behavior like this can seem amusing, unless you have to live with it every day. This compelling personal documentary takes us inside two families whose lives have been shaped by parents who are ""packrats,"" and have trouble balancing their love for their spouses and children with their obsessive accumulation of ""things."" It also looks at what we know about the causes and progression of this odd but by no means uncommon phenomenon. Many clinicians and researchers now believe that hoarding behavior is related to Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) or Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder (OCPD), though it may also sometimes be a symptom of Alzheimer's or other dementia. Montag interviews a social worker who talks about the difficulty of dealing with elderly hoarders in a hospital environment, and with Randy Frost, a leading clinician and researcher, who addresses the hope of treatment for the disorder. She also introduces the owner of Disaster Masters, a company specializing in crisis management for hoarders whose collections have created serious health and safety problems in their homes.

The dramaturgy of the production was provided by a theme according to which our far-fetched ideas were replaced and thus became open to further use, i.e. a symbiosis formed between them when they were recycled. These fictional etudes were short 'sensations' based on dialogues, represented by strange characters, in some shifted space and time and in surreal settings, teeming with visual allegories and codes."

24024 ::: Babel (2006/I) ::: drama ::: 4 interlocking stories connected by a single gun converge at the end to reveal a complex and tragic story of the lives of humanity around the world and how we truly aren't all that different. In Morocco, a troubled married couple are on vacation trying to work out their differences. Meanwhile, a Moroccan herder buys a rifle for his sons so they can keep the jackals away from his herd. A girl in Japan dealing with rejection, the death of her mother, the emotional distance of her father, her own self-consciousness, and a disability among many other issues, deals with modern life in the enormous metropolis of Tokyo, Japan. Then, on the opposite side of the world the married couple's Mexican nanny takes the couple's 2 children with her to her son's wedding in Mexico, only to come into trouble on the return trip. Combined, it provides a powerful story and an equally powerful looking glass into the lives of seemingly random people around the world and it shows just how connected we really are. In Morocco, a shepherd buys a powerful rifle for his sons to protect his herd of goats against jackals attack. The younger decides to test the weapon's range of 3 km and shoots an American woman in bus. Her husband is trying the reconciliation of their lives through vacation in Morocco. Due to the incident, in San Diego their Mexican maid travels to Mexico with their children for the marriage of her son. Meanwhile in Tokyo, the police tries to contact the former owner of the rifle, and his daughter that is feeling rejected misunderstand the reason of the investigation. Three concurrent but interrelated stories covering four countries on three continents are presented. Just outside the small town of Tazzarine in the Moroccan desert, a goat farmer named Abdullah has just purchased a rifle from his neighbor. The rifle is for his eldest son, pre-teen Ahmed, to shoot jackals who have been killing their goats. However, Abdullah's younger son, Yussef, who in many ways demonstrates older tendencies than his brother, ends up being more natural with the firearm. Fooling around with the rifle, the boys take target at various items, testing its shooting distance. In doing so, Yussef shoots at a tour bus off in the distance. The boys can tell by the actions of the bus that Yussef probably hit it. The two scared boys later learn indirectly that an American tourist was killed on the bus. With this information, the boys have to figure out what to do. The information they receive is incorrect as the shooting victim, Susan Jones, did not die immediately from her gunshot wound to the shoulder, but is seriously wounded. She and her husband Richard Jones were on vacation at the time trying to mend their loving but troubled marriage, their problems largely from not being able to deal with the grief associated with the recent SIDS death of their youngest child, Sam. Richard not only has to figure out how to get Susan the needed medical attention required to save her life, which is difficult as the closest hospital is a two hour drive away, but deal with a bus-load of other passengers who can sympathize with the Jones' plight but are concerned for their own health and safety based partly on speculation that Susan's shooting was a terrorist attack. While Richard and Susan's time away from their home in San Diego is extended, Amelia, their illegal alien Mexican housekeeper, has to extend her care of the Jones' two other children, young adolescents Mike and Debbie. This causes an issue for Amelia as her son Luis is getting married in their hometown just across the border in Mexico and Amelia can't find anyone to sit with the children during the wedding. As such, she decides to bring the children to the wedding, which leads to potential problems as she does not have written consent by Richard or Susan to cross the border with them. Amelia, in large part, is at the mercy of her headstrong nephew, Santiago, her and the children's chauffeur that day. Meanwhile in Tokyo, Chieko Wataya, a deaf teenager, is mourning the recent suicide death of her mother. At the same time, she is reaching her sexual awakening, which she is having problems dealing with, as she is often rejected by boys her own age because of her disability. As such, she seeks out that sexual release with older men in inappropriate ways, this sex which she equates with the love that seems to be now missing from the Wataya household. These issues with Chieko come to a head when the police come looking for her father, for what she believes is their furthering questioning about her mother's death and if it really was suicide. "In Gen. 11:9, the name of Babel is etymologized by association with the Hebrew verb balal, 'to confuse or confound'" (www.wikipedia.org/wiki/babel)..."Babel", through a series of misunderstandings, interweaves the unfortunate circumstances of a Moroccan, an American, a Mexican and a Japanese family. A Moroccan family acquires a rifle to protect their goats. An American woman, on a bus tour with her husband, is accidentally shot, which is in turn grossly exaggerated by the press who are quick to label the incident as a "terrorist attack". The same couple's children accompany their long-time caretaker to Mexico to attend her son's wedding, where upon re-entering the United States face problems. A Japanese widower confronts difficulties in communicating with his deaf teenage daughter whom simply craves human contact. Richard and Susan are a couple from San Diego, California who are vacationing in Morocco while their two children are at home with their Mexican housekeeper, Amelia. A rifle finds its way into the hands of a local herdsman's young sons, who recklessly take a shot at a tour bus and hit Susan in the shoulder, causing her severe injury. The distraught Richard calls home to tell Amelia of the situation, who shortly departs for Mexico to attend her son's wedding, with Richard and Susan's children in tow. Disaster thus multiplies, with the situation in Morocco ascribed to terrorists in the media, while Amelia meets with trouble at the Mexican border when she attempts to return to San Diego with Richard and Susan's children. Meanwhile, in Tokyo, a widower tied to the rifle in question, a complex shift of ownership to which the audience is privy, attempts to deal with the memories of his recently deceased wife and his strained relationship with his deaf teenage daughter.

The documentary attempts to discover the real reasons behind why young men and women of color are dying at the hands of their peers. Chicago sits directly in the cross hairs of a $30 billion dollar drug trade.

As the saying goes where there is smoke there is fire and where there are drugs there must be guns.

Through revealing interviews with gang members, activists, investigators & families of gun violence victims, Gunland looks to restore hope and examine solutions.

Informative and emotionally charged, "Assaulted: Civil Rights Under Fire" is an eye-opening look at the genesis of the Second Amendment to the Constitution, leading the audience to rethink the issues surrounding gun control, and the effect on civil rights and liberty. After all, what you don't know can kill you. Dead Patriot Films presents "Assaulted: Civil Rights Under Fire," a documentary that brings audiences to the center of the controversy over the issue that is dividing our nation - gun control. Narrated by Ice-T, a critically acclaimed rapper and actor, the film takes a critical look at current gun laws and the rising movement to restrict the rights guaranteed by our Second Amendment.

24243 ::: "Home Shopping Game" (1987) ::: family ::: The "Home Shopping Game" was among a handful of ill-fated game shows that attempted to cash in on the exploding popularity of shop-at-home networks, a relatively new concept at the time. Two contestants competed in the game portion. Announcer Circosta reads a description of a merchandise item, which viewers can purchase by calling a special 1-800 number. Contestants answered general knowledge questions to earn the right to correct the placement of one letter in a scrambled word; up to three words were scrambled per round (worth $100 for the first word, $200 for the second and $300 for the third). Correctly identifying two of the three words in each round won the player the merchandise item just described. Four rounds were played, with the double stakes for the last two rounds. The highest money winner of the day played a two-part bonus game. In the first half, the player was shown the first letter of each word in a well-known phrase (e.g., N------ V------- N------ G-----). A correct guess after seeing just one letter of each word won the player $2,000; the value of the phrase decreased in value for each letter revealed down to $100 (correct answer: "NOTHING VENTURED NOTHING GAINED"). In the second part of the bonus game, the contestant was given one of the phrase words and had 30 seconds to form as many words of at least three letters using that word. The player won cash based on the number of acceptable new words formed.

It is a problem that is growing in America, and now has reached epidemic proportions among everyday people. "We're dealing with a national epidemic, a must see." - United Media Network.

For many years, tour buses, filled with tourists, deliver their human loads on the plazas and streets of Alfama. It brought a new life to the neighborhood, but also endangered the ancient lifestyle - and there's more: EMEL (public service in Lisbon) has taken control of the parking system in the city; Fado Clubs now have menus in 5 different languages; the municipal wash-house is a relic, and is in the verge of becoming a museum; new generations are dwelling in secular houses but cannot appreciate (nor acknowledge) the old custom of talking from window to window that, as a sea of street cries, used to fulfill the neighborhood with voices floating above the passers-by. It's Progress. The destiny hanging, menacing, over the old popular streets, where (even yesterday), the varina (fish seller) walked by with her clogs, in a proud and confident pace, turning the head of the enamored dock worker. But everything comes to an end one day. It's inevitable. It's the Fado itself. (Fado also means fate). But Fado renewals, is recreated and finds new ways. It rises from the ashes, wearing new attires, yet faithful to its essence. It has been done for many times - history proves it! Fado cannot die. Nor the Neighborhood -they're both the same. Alfama: A Neighbourhood Song follows characters of Alfama, in a set of 7 stories that show different aspects of this death and rebirth: The tour guide, forced to correct the story of Mariquinhas (famous character from a Fado); the old couple that bypassed Love; the desperate man that gambles and loses everything; the conceited man that thinks he knows more about Fado than he really does; the pickpocket who apologizes for his craft; the musicologist who was forced to "swallow" an opposite opinion; the outcast who, operating outside the law, helps to preserve the old Neighborhood.

It is a life cycle made up of a silent big bang, undulating bodies and a hardcore techno city symphony. Sped-up, slowed down and cut-up images are mixed with distorted sound to create an abstract reality that gives the viewer enough space to make associative connections. The film tells the story in four parts. The first, "Coming Down," is the story of a creation: of a sun system, of a child. In part two, "Holding Tight," we see pile drivers hammering piles into the ground to a house beat, which creates a hermetic world with introverted people. Part three, "Wanting More," is a trippy anthology of spectacular images competing for the attention of oversaturated media consumers. In part four, "Letting Go," a boy and a girl meet each other in ecstasy - first during a rave, and then in a sex scene. Director Morgan Knibbe's chief inspiration was French writer and philosopher Georges Bataille, who wrote that "Man restores his lost sovereignty in ecstasy."

The film documents the relationship of two young lovers: Jade (Danielle Tabor) a well educated, University drop-out with a rebellious streak and Nikolai (Ryan Calais Cameron) a charismatic wide boy who takes every day as it comes, as they evolve from teenagers into responsible adults.

From the nail-biting freshman auditions to the spectacular year-end performances, Fame High captures the in-class and at-home drama, competition, heartbreak, and triumph during one school year at the Los Angeles County High School for the Arts (LACHSA), also known as Fame High. Talented teenagers reach for their dreams of becoming actors, singers, dancers, and musicians. LACHSA is one of the most respected and competitive public arts high schools in the country. The arts teachers are working professionals, and some of the famous alumni include singing phenomenon Josh Groban, as well as actors Corbin Bleu, Jenna Elfman, and Anthony Anderson, and principal dancer of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, Matt Rushing. Fame High is Academy Award Nominee Scott Hamilton Kennedy's follow-up to The Garden. This unique hybrid film is a Robert Altman-esque, coming-of-age, documentary-musical which follows a group of novice freshman and seasoned seniors struggling to find their voice - not only in their art but in life - with the help of, and sometimes in spite of, their passionate and opinionated families. Each has sacrificed countless hours to become artistically good, but will they become excellent and be satisfied both personally and professionally? Is the sacrifice worth the dream? This question is as relevant to these young artists as it is to their parents. In a time when performance-based entertainment is commonplace, it is safe to call Fame High the facts behind the fiction. Overnight success is a myth, and the true reality is nothing trumps endless hours of hard work. Shot over the course of sixteen months, we see these young people strive, struggle, grow, and change before our eyes. And you thought regular high school was tough...

Film-goers loved the format but film-makers and actors found the process unwieldy and difficult to work with. It was also quite expensive. Only a few films were produced in the format although it led major studios to develop their own wide-screen processes.

During her futile final attempt to cling to life just a little bit longer, an unworldly, transcendental figure guides her awed soul to its realm and like a twisted mockery of a guardian angel, it offers Jennifer unconditional awareness.

24748 ::: Cecil Balmond: Visionary Engineer and Architect (2009) ::: documentary ::: In conversations with the architecture critic Sanford Kwinter, Cecil Balmond reveals his vision and multifaceted talents in a retrospective exhibition of his accomplishments at the Graham Foundation Gallery in Chicago. "The impossible made possible. This is how I regard Cecil's influence on contemporary architecture. Through his commitment to experimentation and belief in structure as a creative act he has helped realize some of the most thrilling buildings of the last thirty years," said Sarah Herda, curator of the exhibition. According to Cecil Balmond, "Architecture is the experience of form within shape-the rhythm and patterns that organize creativity. Everything we do is underlined by a rigor even if it appears informal; and, not unlike music, it is given a life, a beat with the rhythms created by not only patterns but folds and branches that we study. These are solids that explore the void from zero to infinity." Since the early 1980s Balmond has collaborated with such important contemporary architects and artists working today as Toyo Ito, Anish Kapoor, Rem Koolhaas, Daniel Libeskind and Alvaro Siza. Balmond has introduced innovative structural concepts that have resulted in some of the most challenging buildings in the canon of contemporary architecture. His long standing collaboration with Rem Koolhaas has yielded an array of groundbreaking projects such as the Maison a Bordeaux (1998), the Seattle Central Library (2004), Casa da Musica (2005) in Porto, and the new CCTV tower in Beijing (2009). Cecid Balmond has transformed the role of the engineer in contemporary architecture with his unorthodox and visionary approach that merges architecture and engineering. Born in Sri Lanka and trained as a civil engineer, Balmond is the deputy chairman of ARUP, which he joined in 1968. He founded the Advanced Geometry Unit (AGU) in 2000, a research based practice, which is comprised of architects, artists, engineers, and scientists, to pursue his interest in the genesis of form using numbers, music, and mathematics as vital sources. Under Balmond's direction, the AGU works to develop new typologies for known building programs, as seen in the Coimbra Footbridge, Mondego River, Portugal (2006), the office building Twist, London (2004), the Battersea Power Station Master Plan, London (1999-2007) and the Ranchi Cricket Stadium in India (2008).

24773 ::: The Spoiler (2014) ::: thriller ::: Amid the walls of an opulent mansion the adult children of the fractious and dysfunctional Darmoody family gather to the bedside of their frail and sickly father for what may be his final months. Jesse Darmoody, the youngest and most morally conscious and emotionally clean, of the family is bordering on the bliss of life's new journey as he escapes his family home and heads to university. The forlorn state that seeps into him upon hearing the news of his father's latest heart attack seems as much about the thought of returning to the home and family he has just escaped as it is about his father's failing health. Jesse's older siblings, their dim but decorative partners, trophy wives and the rest of the extended family are an ungodly bunch of apples, all in one way or another rotten at their core; A select group of deeply charmless individuals and slippery bastards either permanently unemployed and in desperate need of cash, beset by drinking problems and drug addictions, as well as a severe array of ubiquitous 'daddy' issues. They sit morosely scowling round the sick bed like a bunch of vultures seemingly waiting for the old man to die. Only Jesse's return brings light and a breath of life back to his father. It being no real secret that he's his father's favourite child, as well as the fact that Tobias Darmoody, is a staunch believer that his snivelling morally defunct set of offspring should make their own way in the world without use of any of his riches, Jesse is only mildly surprised when his older brother Freddie breaks the news that the family inheritance leaves him enough to afford a college education and the remainder of his relatives nothing but scratchings from the family pot. Clearly accustomed to having been kicked around by his elder relatives all his life, Jesse is less than shocked when they break to him the news of a plot they've hatched in a last ditch attempt to get their hands on their father's millions before he croaks. However even Jesse couldn't have imagined that his siblings would have dreamed up a con involving them staging his faked kidnapping and extorting a six figured ransom for his safe return. A ransom to then be shared among them equally and fund their high spending slacker life-styles. Initially outraged by what he is being coerced into Jesse rejects the idea. However the one chink in his armour, Ruri Lim, the alluring, bewitching, half-hellion daughter of the Darmoody's long term hired help applies some fairly relentless arm twisting and sultry manipulation and soon Jesse finds himself succumbing to their scheme and his own personal collision course with fate. Without any relevant criminal experience Jesse questions how his scheming siblings would carry out their grotty little plot, his questions answered with the sickening realisation that Ruri's fiancé, Cody Bunting, will be the man orchestrating the nefarious proceedings. With this news Jesse's part in his family's conspiracy begins an immediate descent on a downward spiral into an abyss of unshakable dread for he knows only too well that Ruri's, coldly smiling boyfriend is nothing short of a cold blooded sociopath; bleak, cruel, brutal and monstrous, and his agreement to his own abduction feels more like his consent to his own murder. The all-pervading sense of doom hangs heavy in the air for Jesse within the dark rooms and quiet corners of the Darmoody mansion as he awaits his fate. And when Jesse's appointment with fate does arrive, things soon go horribly, homicidally wrong, for the frail and sickly paterfamilias, awakened by the three masked intruders in his home, gathers his strength and makes one tragic attempt to protect his youngest child. With Tobias's weak effort to rescue his son resulting in his own 'slightly sooner than expected' death, and Jesse holed away in a dreadful lonely place without food or water and a ransom that can now never be paid, the Darmoody children are left to realise that their failings, greed and flawed twisted plan have betrayed their brother, potentially sealed his fate and come back to haunt them in the worst possible way. As Jesse hangs between life and death, each colossally bad decision by the Darmoody family lead to another, already weak relationships are tested and loyalties start to drastically shift. Caught in the pitiless trap, Jesse has no option but to go to inhuman lengths to come to his own salvation. However his attempts are shrouded by a miasma of evil in the form of Cody Bunting who, with masterly cunning, endeavours to ensure that the 'perfect plan' still goes his way. But just as fate can turn one way, it can also turn another, and the final twist pits the mercilessly brutal against the gently intelligent and fate proves to be more than ironic, one last time.

She's fiercely even foolishly proud. Can she make peace with anyone she loves, or is she left to rage against the dying of the light? Now in the twilight of her life, Hagar Shipley née Currie currently lives with her eldest son Marvin Shipley and daughter-in-law Doris Shipley, who want, against her wishes, to place her in a nursing home. Rather than go along with their wishes, Hagar decides to go on a journey, both literally and figuratively. She runs away to her old hometown of Manawaka, Manitoba, specifically to the now abandoned and dilapidated farmhouse where she lived with her husband, Bram Shipley and their two children. Along the way, she reminisces about her less than conventional and less than trouble-free life. That trouble basically stemmed from her relationships to those in her family: her father, Jason Currie, who disowned her when she got married to Bram; Bram, who had a different outlook on what was important in life, despite the two being compatible sexually; Marvin, who she saw as an extension of his father, and thus was often the neglected child; and younger son John Shipley, who she doted upon as having the "Currie" temperament within the family but who rebelled against her in his early adulthood. In her return to Manawaka, Hagar meets a drifter named Leo, who, in reminding her of John, makes her examine her past decisions more closely. The witty, irascible and fiercely proud Hagar Shipley escapes from home when her son Marvin and daughter in law Doris tell her she must move into nursing care. She sets out on a journey to reconcile herself to a tumultuous past. Through her memories, we come to know her as the passionate and rebellious bride in a remote prairie town whose proud father disowns her when she marries the "wrong sort". Struggling to get to the safe haven of an abandoned house she remembers near the ocean, memories take her in and out of the present. We experience with her the defining moments, hidden passions and characters of her past - her affluent but cold and demanding father; her husband Bram Shipley, a man who unleashes her passion for love and life, yet refuses to meet the rigid social standards she is driven by; and the children she bears, sons whose future becomes ruled by the past.

25145 ::: Stuart Mossman: A Modern Stradivari (2010) ::: documentary ::: This is the long-awaited feature length documentary about the life and work of legendary Luthier, Stuart Mossman. It features David, Keith and Bobby Carradine, reminiscing, playing Mossman guitars and singing. This is David's last film and shows him as a musician, singer and songwriter. The world is "flat-picking" and the steel string acoustic guitar is the most popular musical instrument on the planet. Thousands play sophisticated bluegrass in virtually every country, and many are as talented as the unknown, original backwoodsmen in the Ozarks. The instruments are the basis for modern, electronically amplified Rock'n'Roll. "Guitar Hero" is exploding and because of it a new, young population is fascinated by the guitar. Even if they start with the video game many graduate to the real instrument. Tragically, Stuart Mossman died young, leaving a grieving family and thousands of admirers - yet his work is the foundation upon which today's generation of Luthiers is building guitars from fine tone woods. Barry Brown, David Carradine and Scott Baxendale produced the film. As a teenager, drawn by Stuart's contagious creativity and optimism Scott worked for him, learning the guitar making craft. Stuart transformed lives and Scott eventually purchased the company, continuing to make important Mossman guitars. Scott now makes his own instruments and compares the resurgence of the hand crafted guitar, led by Stuart, to what happened in Cremona at the time of Stradivari. Mossman guitars will be playing for hundreds of years, long after thousands of factory made instruments have disappeared. Modern Bluegrass spans every musical form, from jazz and rock to traditional country. The popularity of the modern, steel stringed acoustic guitar, which began with the traditional genius of Doc Watson, has been growing since the 60s. Doc was the first to present it as the universal instrument it has become. Doc and Merle Watson electrified the musical world, bringing back-woods folk music to the international stage. Previously the world knew the guitar as backup in a jazz band, flamenco or an instrument played by Andre Segovia. Working with virtually no crew, our filmic goal was immediacy, intimacy and spontaneity. The story is spoken by those who lived it, directly to the audience, with unfiltered emotion - told with purposeful simplicity. The high definition video camera and custom mikes, also created modern digital sound. The film also features legendary bluegrass artist, Dan Crary, longtime associate of Stuart Mossman, and Beppe Gambetta, the international virtuoso from Genoa and Byron Berline, the great fiddler. Other world-famous musicians appear. We were in Winfield Kansas on April 7-11 at the Smithsonian Memorial to Stuart - where a hundred Mossman guitars and players gathered. Dan Crary gave a concert to honor Stuart. We took cameras to the world-famous Winfield Flatpicking Festival in September 2008, filming the largest gathering of Mossman guitars ever. Our film features two of Stuart's film roles -- with David Carradine and Hoyt Axton in Barry Brown's, "Cloud Dancer," and with the Carradine brothers in "The Long Riders." Stuart's daughters appear with his wife along with most of his family and virtually everyone who knew him when he was creating his guitars. Many of the workers in his factory appear. Even those critical of a man who lived a life of grandiose dreams, wanted to contribute their vivid memories of this amazing and unique artist. We are creating a CD of extended versions of the music in the film. This will include the three Carradine brothers, Dan Crary, Beppe Gambetta, Byron Berlin, many other brilliant instrumentalists, and a rare performance of Stuart Mossman playing his guitar and singing.

25242 ::: The Greatest Wish (2012) ::: documentary ::: THE GREATEST WISH The seemingly simple question, "What is your greatest wish?" provokes the respondents to formulate their value system. The heroes of this film are young people born towards the end of the communist regime or shortly after the Velvet Revolution. They have never known political repression, are relatively well-off and are the first generation of adults shaped by a free society. The Greatest Wish loosely follows up the eponymous classics of Czech documentary filmmaking by Jan Spata from 1964 and 1989. In these films Jan Spata mapped the dreams and attitudes of young people at key times of the totalitarian era. On 17 November 1989 the student demonstration on National Avenue, which led to Czechoslovakia gaining its freedom and democracy, was filmed and included in second instalment of The Greatest Wish. At that time his daughter Olga was five years old. Twenty years on, the twenty-five year-old director has picked up where he left off, shooting the feature-length documentary The Greatest Wish as an insight into her own generation. LOVE, FAMILY, SUCCESS, FREEDOM are enduring values shared by all three of the last generations. Even though the social and political situations are different, many of the protagonists appearing in these three films have tried to define and express their idea of happiness. The director chose schools, prisons, institutions, demonstrations, the city and the countryside as vantage points from which to examine this topic; the film's scope takes in birth and death. Social outcasts, ambitious professionals, people in love, civic activists and absolutely ordinary people open their hearts in the film. The Greatest Wish is an essay about people at the start of their life's journey; about their hopelessness and also their will to find meaning in life, the ubiquitous longing for love, and youthful ideals that will not be silenced. It is an inspiration for the protagonists' contemporaries and a message to those no longer young that the up-and-coming generation harbours a surprising and admirable sense of hope.

The family's matriarch, Leah Welbel, and her husband Eliezer, both survived over two and a half years in Auschwitz; however, in their minds, their grandchildren marrying non-Jews represents a posthumous victory for Hitler. As filming for OUT OF FAITH commences, Leah and her first grandchild to "marry out," Danny, have not spoken for six years. When her second grandchild, Cheryl, marries a Christian, Leah takes a different approach: she showers her with love and attention, hoping that by keeping the lines of communication open she will be able to convince Cheryl's husband, Matt, to convert to Judaism. Cheryl resists: "I would like a Jewish family, but I'm certainly not going to impose on Matt and push all these things on him, because that's the worst thing you can do in a relationship. Because I know if he said to me, 'Cheryl, I want you to convert to Christianity,' I'd say 'take a hike!'" OUT OF FAITH follows the Welbel family for three years as they try to resolve these issues. The pressure mounts on Cheryl as people tell her that interfaith marriage is decimating the Jewish population; and pressure mounts on Leah as her grandson's wife is about to have a baby - Leah's first great-grandchild. Will Leah and Danny reconcile? Can Leah continue to engage Cheryl without giving in to her belief that by doing so she is "betraying her family" murdered in the Holocaust? An unexpected family event changes everything. OUT OF FAITH examines the complex and emotionally charged issues surrounding assimilation and interfaith marriage. It captures the intimate details of one family's attempt to persevere in the face of a heart wrenching intrafamilial conflict; a conflict that impacts countless families in multicultural societies that have intense pressures to assimilate. Anyone who has ever struggled to remain loyal to a cultural identity in the face of great societal pressure to assimilate will undoubtedly relate. Out of Faith, a feature-length documentary, follows three generations of the Welbel family as they are pulled apart by interfaith marriage. Grandparents Leah and Lazer are Auschwitz survivors; when the film begins, Leah and her grandson Dannny have not spoken in six years, because he married someone not Jewish. Then Leah's second grandchild, Cheryl, marries out of faith. Pressure mounts on Cheryl as people describe how interfaith marriage impacts the Jewish population; pressure mounts on Leah as her grandson's wife is about to have a baby. An unexpected event changes everything. Will Leah and Danny reconcile? We see the family as they struggle with complex and emotionally charged conflicts over intermarriage, familial duty, ethnic identity, and cultural continuity and survival. The film raises universal questions of how to honor the past and one's own 'tribe' while living in today's multicultural society.

Dramatic subject matter in the West became accessible to photographers just when the newly-discovered wet-plate process enabled them to work outdoors. Thereafter, Western explorers consistently used photography to record their discoveries. It was primarily through the resulting photographs that the frontier became known. Ironically, these early images hastened the demise of the frontier they so beautifully documented. Light in the West rediscovers this empire through the eyes (and camera lenses) of the extraordinary men who were the first photographers to venture west. At a time when making photographs was as difficult as traveling in uncharted wilderness, these men truly were pioneers. The photographers in Light in the West are now recognized as masters of photography. The film's narration consists of extracts from their diaries which chronicle their explorations.

25361 ::: Lucy Barks! (1996) ::: documentary ::: From the moment it opened, in the summer of 1992, Lucy's Record Shop was destined to close. A pop-culture movement is by nature ephemeral: It emerges in the moment and flickers briefly, and its demise is inevitable. In its moment, it may embody the exuberance and spirit of its time so precisely that it seems poignant in retrospect. But any movement defined by youth is destined to end-just like youth. The cyclical nature of rock 'n' roll demanded that Lucy's wouldn't last. Most OF Lucy's regulars say the club's brightest years were between 1993 and 1996. It had achieved some national notoriety: Versus picked Lucy's as one of its favorite clubs in the country in Details magazine, and Rolling Stone shot part of an indie fashion spread there. More important, though, was that throughout those years, Lucy's exemplified the openness of indie-rock culture. Bands traveling through town could either crash at a fan's house or sleep in the store-which prevented a robbery on at least one occasion. Spontaneous shows were common, especially since Lucy's relied on word of mouth. A band passing through town could stop by Lucy's and maybe even play that night. The documentary Lucy Barks!, filmed in 1994 and '95 by Vanderbilt student Stacy Goldate, captures some of the hubbub of the scene. Kids in fishnets and ripped jackets sprawl across the dilapidated couch in Lucy's lobby. The most popular local band to play at Lucy's, Fun Girls from Mt. Pilot-a group clad in skirts and hideous makeup, led by none other than Donnie Kendall-thrashes a seething mosh pit into a blur of bobbing heads and elbows.

That is portrayed by "Power of Soul" is a mesmerizing collection of rare concert footage, contemporary documents and deeply personal interviews, all helping the film makers create a fascinating and gripping chronicle about this very special era of music history.

Specifically, the Confederacy, which is short of cash, needs Union gold in order to continue the war. According to Captain Lynch, the Union is hiding an enormous sum in gold coins among dynamite sticks in an arsenal found in a Union stronghold. Clyde McKay's group, with occasional assistance from Captain Lynch, is to infiltrate the Union stronghold and steal the gold. McKay receives an advance payment for his services from General Hood.

25576 ::: Off Route 2 (2011) ::: short ::: Twisted metal, flowing blood, and bone protruding from broken flesh serve as a mere backdrop to a deeper look at trauma and the often-anticlimactic aftermath of personal tragedy. It is in the peaceful quiet that follows a crash that the banal becomes beautiful and mundane monumental. As the woman hangs injured and suspended from her seatbelt in the upside down car, she observes beautiful wildlife in the landscape around her and her tragic situation seems at once disconnected from and yet interwoven with the surrounding beauty. This is as much a performance art work of endurance as it is a fictional construct. The execution of this film demanded that the artist (who uses her own body in all of her films) hang upside down for extended periods of time in sub-zero weather. In mainstream cinema, major tragic events such as this are often portrayed as climactic turning points in a story, yet in this instance, the bloody accident is the inciting incident, rather than the crisis or climax, and it has in fact already occurred off-screen before the cameras arrived. The emphasis of this film is on the events following the accident, when life seemingly continues as normal around the crash scene, the woman is conscious and waiting for time to pass in suspended animation. This car accident involves only one car, driven by only one passenger; the trauma is thus personal rather than a shared event. The event of the car accident was chosen for its blatant physical violence against the subject's body, which stands as a metaphor for other invisible forms of personal violence such as psychological and emotional trauma related to any number of other personal tragedies such as medical illness, romantic break-ups, financial bankruptcy, and so on. Wildlife such as deer and arctic wolves are present in the scene and serve to build a sense of peaceful tension. The woman hangs inverted in silence in the realm of the animals - there is no music playing on the car stereo and thus the animals have not been anthropomorphized or transported into her world. Instead, she finds herself inhabiting their space listening only to the pheasants, crows, deer breathe, wolf grunts, and the highway in the distance. The deer and the wolves look passively yet with interest at the scene, and the viewer wonders if the wolves will attack given the scent of blood from the woman's injuries, and yet the wolves loose interest in the woman opt to chase the deer instead. In the second part of the film loop, we see firefighters enter the scene to rescue the woman. At first it appears as a classic stereotype of damsel in distress. But as the camera tracks backward, we gradually see the boom mic, the dolly track, the boom operator, the assistant director, and other members of the crew. The firefighters continue the extrication process using the jaws-of-life and the sound of crunching metal and gasps of fear (as recorded from inside the car) dominate the soundtrack. The scene is at once artificial (with the revelation of the film crew) and real (as the director/performer is actually strapped inside the car as they twist and cut the metal). Once she is safely removed, the viewer can hear the confusion lingering in her voice as the assistant director comes to discuss the next scene. All of a sudden it has become apparent that the "damsel in distress" is actually the "director in control" as she discusses the next shot and thanks the firefighters for their help on the scene. Once she yells cut, the image rolls out to black and the loop begins again with her strapped upside down in the car.

The result might have been similar to this duller-than-dirt travelogue featuring dancing whales, stripping females and a non-performing performing dog. Not to mention the Kim Novak look-alike Ricky Renee, the Bluebell Girls of Paris, strippers such as Feline and Rapha Temporel (the houri of the hammock); juggler Marco of Stockholm, Wild Willie Harris and the Tiller Girls of London.

25594 ::: Virtuosi de nulle part (2005) ::: documentary ::: After the death of the friend of the director Roman Ayvazov, a virtuoso violinist of gypsy origin, she began to look for audio and video recordings of his performances. The only thing she could find was one poor-quality amateur audio recording. At that moment she realized, with sorrow and shame, that many of the exceptional musicians she loved to listen to in her youth, like Mutsi Ayvazov, Chinchiri, and others, are no longer with us, and there's also no longer any trace of their music. The long years she spent abroad changed her attitude towards their music, which we had always considered very nice, but second-rank. The film Le Virtuose resulted from her desire to take some extraordinary musicians out of the context in which we are used to seeing them, and put them on a European stage, where they could be taken at their true value and appreciated for their virtuosity. The film tells of their journey from small Thracian villages and gypsy slums to some of the most prestigious stages in Brussels, where they performed for very pampered and sophisticated audiences. When she started work on the project, nobody was sure that she would be able to carry it out to fruition - especially the film's protagonists, who thought she was trying to put one over on them and that the plans she was working on had nothing to do with them. It turned out to be a real battle just to get the film made. She first got the idea for it back in early 2002, and she only just now managed to finish it. A great deal of the credit for the fact that it did get made goes to the Yehudi Menuhin Foundation, and its chief music expert, Thierry Van Roy. He was man enough to share the risk of this adventure of turning Cinderella into a princess - because that is exactly what happened. She discovered some of the musicians in the gypsy neighborhood near the graveyard of her home town, Nova Zagora, which they had never left before.

The Earl of Valletort insisted that his daughter, Lady Hermione, marry a Hungarian Count. The Count saw a clear path to the throne of his country. Money was necessary; he must have wealth; thus his choice of Lady Hermione. The Earl himself had no money. When his wife passed away she left every dollar, and a big estate it was, to her daughter. The Count promises to do wonders for the girl if the latter would arrange to have his daughter marry him. The Earl tries to force his daughter to marry the Count, but he was not the man of her heart, so she escaped to America. She considered the marriage vile, and would avoid it at any cost. She took with her a plotting Frenchman, who was known to her father. She was not aware of this at the time, so when she arrived in America, she decided to marry him. (He agreed to protect her with his name, nothing more.) She had arranged to marry Jean de Courtois to escape the Hungarian nobleman, disappear suddenly and later secure a divorce. De Courtois tries every method imaginable and every excuse ever invented to delay the wedding. He finally meets a newspaper reporter, whom he had met in America before, and gives him the whole story, but not his permission to use it. De Courtois promises he will give his consent in a day or so, and keeps the scribe waiting so long that he becomes disgusted. A few days later the scheming Hungarian gets in touch with a few questionable characters, who make their headquarters on the East Side in New York. He instructs them to watch de Courtois. Henry Hunter, the newspaper reporter in mention, insisted that de Courtois allow the wedding to take place immediately, but the latter complained of having lost the license. The Count's men have learned of this through their leader, Antoine. They also were aware of the fact that Hunter was to get another. John Delancey Curtis, with his friend, Howard Devar, arriving from China, register at the Central Hotel, and, unknowingly, secures a room quite near that occupied by de Courtois. That night the Count is overpowered by the Hungarian's paid men, bound and gagged to await the arrival of the newspaper reporter. Hunter arrives and just as he steps from the taxicab, is killed. Curtis is the only eyewitness. The police demand that he hold himself ready for the inquest in the morning. Late that night, while strolling up Broadway, Curtis discovers that he is wearing the coat of the murdered man. In the pocket he discovers a marriage license, made out to Lady Hermione and Jean de Courtois. This thrills Curtis, and he decides to see Lady Hermione and find out just what the license means. He arrives at her quarters and is informed that the man to whom she was to be married was nothing to her, except as a protector from the Hungarian. Curtis believed that de Courtois had been killed. He was not aware of the fad that the newspaper reporter had been sent for the license, and now Lady Hermione believes what Curtis had told her. Curtis offers himself as a bodyguard, and she accepts him, marrying him a few minute later. The Earl arrives in New York, is informed of the whereabouts of his daughter, and rushes to the minister's home, only to discover that Lady Hermione is married. They try to interfere with Curtis, but the young American, filled with spirit and enthusiasm, punches the Count in the eye, scaring the Earl almost out of his wits. Curtis and his bride catch a taxicab and leave the infuriated nobleman bewildered. They secure a suite at the Hotel Plaza. When the American returns to his room at the Central Hotel he is met by the Earl and the Count, who furiously reprimand him. Steingall, chief of detectives, links Curtis with the murder of de Courtois. De Courtois is later discovered in the room almost exhausted. He refuses to talk. Steingall found telegrams from the Earl, asking to delay the ceremony until his arrival, and that he, de Courtois, would be paid well. Curtis manages to convince the detective that he is guiltless and later discovers the car in which the murderers had escaped. He follows the machine. With the aid of the detectives. Curtis and Devar capture the East Side assassins. The Earl endeavors to have Curtis arrested on the charge of abduction, but when Steingall makes it plain to the Count and Earl that they must leave this country immediately, or he will arrest them in connection with the murder of the reporter, they are glad to leave. The adventure brought about an undying friendship between Steingall. Curtis and Devar, and it is said by those who know that Curtis and Lady Hermione lived happily ever after. In fact, she did not remember that she had married him for a bodyguard, for she loved him with her whole heart and soul, and he worshiped the ground she walked on.

He saw a creature resembling a dog, and quickly fired at the beast. However, the strange creature vanished before his eyes. Terrifying events would soon follow. The actual haunting started as unexplained noises around the Bell House. It began as scratching and knocking sounds and soon progressed to the sounds of dogs fighting and wings flapping around the house. These events greatly puzzled the Bell family and they kept the haunting a secret for some time. In 1818, John Bell was afflicted with a strange disease that effected his tongue and jaw. It made chewing and swallowing difficult. Soon, the spirit haunting the Bells' found her voice and made her presence known. She claimed that she was the witch of Kate Batts, a woman who detested John Bell because of a bad business deal, and began to threaten John's life, plainly saying that she would kill him. The Bell family decided they could keep their secret no longer and enlisted the aid of some of their closest friends. Those who stayed the night heard laughter and had the sheets pulled off of them. One man who had a reputation for being 'tough' came and stayed the night believing he could defeat the Bell Witch. However, she yanked off his sheets too, and hit him, screaming at him to give up because he couldn't win a fight with a spirit. Future President, Andrew Jackson even visited the Bells' home. One of Bell's sons had served under Jackson during the war, and Jackson wanted to help in anyway he could. As Jackson's party was approaching the Bell home, one of his companions began to boast how he could defeat the ghost. The wheels of the wagons suddenly locked up, and no matter what the drivers tried they could not get the wagons rolling. Then the men heard a voice say, "Go on, old General," and the wagons began to move once again. Jackson and his men were harassed the entire night of their stay, being slapped and pinched by the spirit until day break. They left as soon as they could. John Bell was not the only focus of the Bell Witch's scorn. Betsy Bell fell victim to the ghosts cruelty. 'Kate' would torture Betsy for days on end, pinching and slapping her, even pulling her hair. Although the Bell Witch tormented many people, including Bell's slaves, she often helped Lucy Bell, John's wife. She would sing to her and do her chores when she was sick. In 1820, John was stricken with the same illness in his tongue and jaw, only this time it was much worse. At times, friends and family would believe he was getting better, but the Witch always insisted that she would kill him. On December 20, John Bell, bed-ridden, died. A small vial of a black liquid was found at his bed side. A small amount of this fluid was given to a cat. The cat immediately perished

25709 ::: A Prayer for Beslan (2005) ::: documentary ::: Beslan will forever be synonymous with the murder of hundreds of innocent children. One year on, how is the town coping? Our documentary this week is a harrowing and powerful new film on the school siege and its enduring legacy. From the vilified headmistress to the bewildered local MP and grieving families, it depicts a once idyllic town now torn apart by anger. Includes an exclusive and candid interview with the main Russian negotiator. September 1, 2004. Twelve year old Emma and her best friends Aza and Svetlana are looking forward to their first day back at school. "I followed them to school and watched them walk in," states Emma's mother, Irina. "They never came back." Days later, she would identify video footage of the girls huddled together in the school gym before the explosion. " When they found Emma, her body and head were totally carbonized." Beslan is overcome by grief for its lost children. Hatred, anger and suspicion have permeated a community that was once so peaceful. "Why did they choose this small town of no importance? Why did they come here? They are hiding the truth," despairs mother Larisa Afanasova. In the absence of any real information from the government, the town has turned in on itself. "All the survivors are accused of something or another," states hostage Zalina Albegova. "The teachers are accused of saving themselves instead of the children." Most of the town's hatred is targeted at School Number 1's headmistress, Lydia Tsalijeva. "As God is my witness I never wanted any of the children to be hurt," she declares. But it's in vain. "Principal - it's all your fault and we will kill you," reads the graffiti on the burnt out walls of her school. A bitter hate campaign has forced her from her job. Paediatrician Dr Leonid Roshal led the negotiations to try and free the children. The hostage takers requested him specifically after he led the Moscow theater siege negotiations two years earlier. "It took me three hours to get there. It might have been quicker if the government had provided me with a plane." Although the government insisted only 350 people were being held hostage, he knew immediately the situation was much worse. "I realized the number was much higher. I kept changing the focus of the conversation, just to keep the negotiations going." By the second day, the situation inside the school was appalling. Denied food or water, the children were weak and dehydrated. Some resorted to desperate measures. "It was terrible when the children went over to the buckets and started drinking their own urine," states Lydia Tsalijeva. "They soaked their white scarves and put them in their mouths, sucking all the moisture out of the velvet fabric." Confusion remains over events leading to the siege's bloody end. But what motivated the hostage takers remains clear: ending the war in Chechnya. Until this is addressed, the lessons of Beslan will go unheeded. As politician Stanislav Kesayev puts it: "In time ahead, people will still have to live in fear. Because no one can guarantee that there will never be another Beslan."

Over three years, the filmmaker followed a small group of individuals from the London pirate radio community, from tower-block rooftops to industrial warehouses, asking why these young people take such significant risks for the sake of broadcasting. Jay was introduced to pirate radio at the age of 13, and left the scene by choice at 32; he was never caught by the authorities. Sam Supplier, whose pirate radio career was ended abruptly by the authorities in 2008, was left with a large fine and two years on bail.

The women - and the men who are inextricably part of them as lovers, providers, adversaries or friends - are neither symbols nor stereotypes. They are only human, hungering for ways to change their lives for the better, and inevitably discovering that change is never accomplished without pain.

She is a simple girl who is pregnant by one of two soldiers and neither will admit to being the father. When Umberto's landlady Antonia demands the rent owed her and threatens eviction if she is not paid, Umberto tries desperately to raise the money by selling his books and watch. He is too proud to beg in the streets and can not get a loan from any of his acquaintances. He contracts a sore throat, is admitted to a hospital and this puts a delay on his financial difficulty. Discharged, he finds that his dog is gone and, following a frantic search, locates him in the city dog pound. His room has been taken over by the landlady and the now-homeless Unberto determines to find a place for his beloved dog, and then kill himself. Unsuccessful, he resolves that his dog must die with him and he stands in the path of a train, with his dog in his arms. Umberto Domenico Ferrari is a retired civil servant who can barely eke out a living on his meager pension. He's behind on his rent and is now threatened with eviction. His only friends are his dog Flike and the young Maria who works as a kitchen maid in his rooming house. He's taken to selling what few possessions he has - his watch, a pair of cherished books - to pay part of his back rent but the landlady, Olga, insists he must pay her all he owes or she will evict him at the end of the month. Young Maria is pregnant, though she doesn't which of the two she's been seeing is the father and Umberto offers to help. When Umberto falls ill, he soon finds himself in hospital where he is found to have tonsillitis. He returns to his boarding house to himself without a place to stay and learns that his dog has run off. He finds Flike at the pound but must now rebuild his life. After working thirty years as a dedicated civil servant, Umberto Domenico Ferrari lives solely off a meager Italian government pension. While most pensioners decry the small amount of money from the government, most are unlike Umberto who is in debt, the pension unable to pay off those debts and provide a healthy life for him. He is all alone in the world with no family. His only friends are his dog, a mutt named Flike, and Maria, the young, single maid who works in the house in which he's rented a room for twenty years. Umberto is close to being evicted by his haughty landlady, Olga, for rent not paid, she who has ulterior motives for wanting him out beyond the money. He has until the end of the month to come up with 15.000 lire for current and back rent or be evicted. Maria cannot help him, she who has her own secret which she confides to him, that issue which threatens her own position in the house. So Umberto does whatever he can either to raise the money, which is primarily through selling whatever of his possessions are worth anything monetarily, or cutting back on other expenses. One way he is able to achieve the latter is to parlay off of a case of tonsillitis. Through the process of this basic survival, Umberto will have to make some difficult and often heart wrenching decisions. Barely managing to support himself and his bright-eyed dog, Flike, Umberto Domenico Ferrari, a respectable civil servant who depends on his meagre and piteous pension, faces eviction by the end of the month. Under those circumstances, the desperate for cash lonely pensioner fights a losing battle to come by with the fifteen thousand lire to pay off his greedy and ruthless landlady, balancing between dignity and shame in the bustling streets of Rome. Now, Umberto's mind is clouded with grimly unpleasant thoughts, but is this the solution to his problems? Umberto Domenico Ferrari, an elderly and retired civil servant, is desperately trying to maintain a decent standard of living on a rapidly dwindling state pension. But he's up against his tyrannical landlady, who keeps demanding rent that he can't pay (while renting his room out to prostitutes during the day), and his only friends are the pregnant housemaid and his little dog Flike...

Finally, Boyle discusses making In Cold Blood with the late cinematographer Conrad Hall and The Thomas Crown Affair with cinematographer Haskell Wexler. "Boyle and his colleagues admit to missing the camaraderie of the studio system, believe that films once left more to the imagination and were more personal, but all these artists are grateful for being able to leave a legacy-and an awesome one at that-and they talk about their craft rather than indulging in mere nostalgia.

26023 ::: The Phantom Creeps (1939) ::: sci-fi ::: "The Phantom Creeps" was Universal's 44th sound-era serial (between "The Oregon Trail" and "The Green Hornet") and was re-issued to theaters in 1949 by Commonwealth Pictures Corporation, a distribution set-up handling primarily Universal re-issues. Commonwealth had no hand at all in the production of this serial (as incorrectly shown on site) as they were a distribution company only. Some sources mistakenly identify them as the serial producer because all of the 1949 re-issue prints (and the 16mm prints sold to television circa 1952) show "Commonwealth Pictures Corp. Presents" above the title.There is a whole lot of difference between "presenting" and "producing", a fact that some sources appear to not know or don't care. The serial is of interest to some collectors as it re-unites Bela Lugosi and Edwin Stanley from 1931's "Dracula", and the crater-discovery of the meteorite fragment by Zorka in the serial is stock footage from Universal's 1936 "The Invisible Ray." The stock footage of an explosion and avalanche used in Chapter 11 comes from Universal's 1934 serial, "The Vanishing Shadow." Plot finds eccentric scientist Dr. Alex Zorka carrying on various experiments in his secret laboratory with the aid of his assistant Monk. Zorka has invented many strange weapons of warfare, including a devisualizer belt which renders him invisible; a terrifying, eight-foot tall robot (played by stuntman Edwin "Bud" Wolfe and not circus giant Bud Wolff), and he also has a deadly meteorite fragment (which he found in a 1936 movie with Boris Karloff) from which he extracts an element which can induce suspended animation in an entire army. Foreign spies, operating under the guise of a foreign language school (great cover), are trying to buy or (mostly) steal the meteorite element, while his former partner, Dr. Fred Mallory, miffed that Zorka will not turn his inventions over to the U.S. Government, blows the whistle on him to Captain Bob West of the Military Intelligence Department. Tired of answering the door and saying no to the spies and the government, Zorka moves his lab and when his beloved wife is killed, Zorka, puttering around for his own amusement up to this point, gets hacked off as only Lugosi can, swears eternal vengeance against society, and decides to use his inventions to make himself world dictator. And would have if not for his assistant Monk, an escaped convict virtually enslaved by Zorka, who is cowardly, treacherous and totally incompetent, and whose accidental or deliberate interference with Zorka's efforts repeatedly frustrates his master's grand schemes.

German midwives are affected by an increasing professional indemnity insurance - each year by approx. 1.000 Euro - but unfortunately there is not an adequate payment for them! In addidtion, more and more insurances do not insure midwives anymore, because being a midwive is called a "risk" and therefore contains financial losses. Thus midwives in Germany are forced to quit their jobs! Besides that, even the staff in a maternity clinic (midwives + doctors!) are affected by a steady increase of an insurance premium! Therefore several baby delivery stations in hospitals close their doors permanently, because they cannot afford to pay the necessary insurance premium anymore! The result is that becoming parents (already!) don't find a midwive for childbirth in any way! Professional indemnity insurances and health insurances calculate the costs that occur if there happens a case of damage - a physical injury to the baby during birth. They calculate for many decades including the medical progress and the increasing life span of a handicapped person. These costs are directly shifted to the liability premiums. However, it shows the economic view and thinking. * How did the problem of liability insurance develope - an who is (really!) affected? * How is it possible that Germany loses its free-lancing midwives and by that a part of its health system just because of an enormous liability premium? * Why is it that Germany sacrifices its freedom of choice? * Are there any approaches to solving the problem abroad? Germany has one of the lowest birth rates in Europe and worldwide. Germany hopes its birth rate will raise somehow, but politics and economy more and more act contrary. Massive savings demand not only wage cutting but also a drastic reduction of jobs. One consequence is the slowly and unnoticed elimination of midwives.

His experiences in Afghanistan as well as Iraq put him face to face with the sobering realities of war on a daily basis. Severe Clear offers an unflinching look at life on the battlefield through the eyes of someone who was there. Shot by First Lieutenant Mike Scotti on his Mini-DV camera, and told through his own journal entries, Kristian Fraga's "Severe Clear" is more than a documentary. It is a first person account of the Marines who were on the front lines of Operation Iraqi Freedom. This is what they saw. In this digital age of embedded reporters and filmmakers directing their "war" pictures from the internet, "Severe Clear" strips the barriers between audience and soldier, personalizing the fear, moral conundrum and sheer adrenaline rush of life on the battlefield. The personal story of Mike Scotti and the Marines in his unit is the backbone of this intimate, extreme and often times horrific tale. The story begins with Scotti on a 40-day voyage across the Arabian Sea, aboard the USS Boxer, where his days are filled with physical training, tactical study, and mental preparation. For the Marines, who have been in a constant state of war since the September 11th attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon, the political wrangling of world leaders and diplomatic debates over the merits of UN resolutions are nothing but a smoke screen for a war they all know is inevitable. So they train, blow off steam, and wait. The forces reach Kuwait, but there is more waiting to be done. That is, until President Bush addresses the nation and orders the beginning of Operation Iraqi Freedom. As they push onto Baghdad, patriotism and youthful enthusiasm gradually gives way to the real, brutal horrors of war. As the resistance to their presence escalates, Scotti and his fellow soldiers are forced to come to grips with the magnitude of the situation they find themselves in. Severe Clear is a motion picture that captures the chaos and complexity of war.

26600 ::: Desert Dreamers (2006) ::: documentary ::: California's Mojave Desert is one of the hottest, driest spots on the planet. In spite of a handful of growing desert cities, very few people subsist among the dry lake beds and secret military zones. This journey across the Mojave introduces us to an eclectic group of desert dwellers: artists, hermits, UFO seekers, and believers in religious miracles. Though at first glance urbanites and suburbanites might take them for drop outs, charlatans, or space cadets, these desert denizens all chose the Mojave for the same reason: for the freedom to chart their own paths, and the space to fulfill their desert dreams. Though he's already used up more than 100,000 gallons of paint, Leonard Knight continues to paint the mountain where his hot air balloon deposited him 30 years ago. With each new bale of hay, painted flower, and pile of clay, Leonard hopes his adobe creation comes closer to proclaiming his heartfelt message to the world: 'God is Love.' "I keep it that simple," he says, "and try to let my mountain do my talking. And it seems to be talking better than I am." Though she is no longer an exotic dancer, Dixie Evans remains incredibly flirtatious at 79. Once the "Marilyn Monroe of Burlesque," she now runs the world's only burlesque museum, and loves to tell the stories of her erstwhile rival: "We are both from Hollywood, the same age. But if you wanted to see Marilyn, you could have come to the Burlesque Theater so see me. -- Uhh, I might have shown you a lot more than Marilyn!" Maurice Romero is a flamboyant artist who came to the Anza-Borrego desert from West-Hollywood to find peace in nature. After the death of his lover 10 years ago, he built a village of doll-houses to keep him company: St. Maurice Village. Now he paints flowers and talks about solitude, spirituality, and Martha Stewart. In the Mojave, a Polaroid camera can possess mystical powers. Maria-Paula Acuna discovered the Virgin Mary's image one day in a Polaroid of the sun, donned a nun's habit, and started interpreting her visitors' pictures of the sky. When she discovered that people were flocking to her, and even paying for her interpretations, she moved the operation to the Mojave to avoid big city parking problems. Now, hundreds of believers and on-lookers make the pilgrimage every month to witness the spectacle. They bring the sick, the elderly, and the handicapped, and all take pictures of the sky, hoping to capture a miracle. Elmer Long has plenty of free wisdom to dispense to those he meets. This bearded elder of the desert chose to retire early from his job at a quarry so that he could have more time for his life's work: constructing a forest of 'bottle-trees' in his yard. Each tree is adorned with dozens of bottles, and crowned with Americana collectibles he finds in the desert, like an old gold-digger pistol or a pump from a 1930's Route 66 gas station. Elmer is adamant that you don't need money to be happy as long as you have a dream to follow. "I had something to do before I die and I'm doing it," he says, filled with joy and laughter among his trees of glass. Desert citizens inhabit UFO science centers, spiritual retreats, and art parks. However, despite the outward individualism and distinctiveness of the lives encountered on this trip through the Mojave, each has one thing in common: their love of the austere environment and the freedom and spiritual understanding that comes from the decision to live far from the centers of civilization.

He and his friend Alfred have had many a philosophical discussion about the concept of beauty, not only as it applies to his oft not appreciated music, but as it applies to the arts and life in general.

26864 ::: Making Space: 5 Women Changing the Face of Architecture (2014) ::: documentary ::: For the first time in history, women are designing our world. They are the rising stars in architecture-previously an all-male galaxy--and they are literally and figuratively changing the landscape. MAKING SPACE captures the compelling stories and outstanding designs of Annabelle Selldorf (NY), Farshid Moussavi (London), Odile Decq (Paris), Marianne McKenna (Toronto), and Kathryn Gustafson (Seattle & London). Without script or narration, each woman tells her own story, enhanced by the insights of commentators including Pulitzer Prize-winning architecture critic Paul Goldberger; MoMA's Peter Reed and Paola Antonelli; and others. Meryl Streep makes a special guest appearance. Making Space, a full-length documentary film, profiles five contemporary female architects and some of their most exciting projects. Different architectural genres are explored such as urban, landscape, and green/ sustainable architecture. The women are based in London, New York, Seattle, Toronto, and Paris, with projects around the world. Lively, engaging and character-driven, Making Space reveals the person behind the drafting table. How did these women make it to the top in a profession long dominated by men? What drives them and challenges them? What is the nature of their creative process? Does gender play a role in architectural design? We will see these extraordinary women both inside and outside of their work environments, hear from curators, critics and clients, and visit spectacular sites near and far. Making Space was shot in the style of cinema verite with questions posed by the director off-screen. Each woman tells her own story, without script or narration. Some of the most renowned figures in the field of architecture weigh in on the issues raised in the film. The interviews were filmed in a variety of settings, from kitchen counter to construction site to concert hall. State-of-the-art photography, editing, and an upbeat soundtrack give the film an artistic look, an of-the-moment feel and a contemporary sound. Creative use of still images is combined with moving footage. Buildings and parks without people cease to have scale, cease to have the humanistic quality that is at the very heart of their success. The architects and commentators share their candid views on the "people factor" and how new designs affect the way we use and think about our environment. We experience the architecture the way the women intended - as fully functioning elements in a vibrant human and geographical landscape.

Young boys were also kidnapped to become child soldiers. Women young and old were beaten, raped, and impregnated (with their children later stigmatized by being called "rebel babies") by adult commanders and child soldiers.

26897 ::: Teufel Eintritt (2000) ::: short ::: Suspicions Words are used to animate things, to provide them with certain qualities, to allow them to grow and flourish. We also use words to kill things, to incapacitate them, to make them waste away and perish. With words, we believe ourselves to be in safety and assume that we have things under control. A mistake. Words have now entered the world of reMI. Words are placed in the machine, in the ghost in the machine, inserted into the center of the confusion and into lines. When this happens, the machine becomes a golem to a limited extent only; it seems to require our control less and less, enjoying a lively randomness. Another mistake. Radical transformations which are inspired and assisted by reMI provide us with an aesthetic strategy for the crime. It has already been outlined in previous works, in particular Mobile V a break-in as the ultimate hack. The inclusion of text can be considered a logical continuation. In Mobile V, the ghosts in the machine were set free, and now, language is used as a creative instrument in the conclusion of a devilish pact. The reference to text and symbol is intended as an element of a manifesto: Teufel Eintritt (Enter the Devil) will be used as an important standard for innovations. The devilish pact is already in effect, as the text serves as a mediator, as a key to the picture within a picture in the same way as it did for the interference within the interference. Words are used to animate, to kill, we sense that we are in safety. reMI shows us our greatest mistake. And because of this golem of truth, words fail us.

27081 ::: Canadian Psycho (2012) ::: music ::: This film project aims to document a Canadian underground music scene called "Psychobilly". Psychobilly is a combination of mainly two genres Punk Rock and Rockabilly, although other influences such as surf rock, country and metal can be noted as well. Wikipedia describes it in the following way, "Psychobilly is a genre of music generally described as a mix between late-1970s punk rock and 1950s American rockabilly. It is often characterized by lyrical references to horror and exploitation films, violence, lurid sexuality, and other topics generally considered taboo, though often presented in a comedic or tongue-in-cheek fashion. Psychobilly music is often played with an upright bass instead of the electric bass more common in modern rock music." The psychobilly scene in Canada has many great, unique bands although one would never know this from listening to the radio. So this documentary will show who they are and what they do. In the process I hope the audience will learn about a very obscure subculture and discover Canadian bands they may not have otherwise heard of.

To that moment when her seemingly random action may save his life... Last Call is about that sense of loneliness and vulnerability that one can feel even in a crowded bar in the most crowded city in the world.

Anything that Jeannie tries that is new or different is usually a result of being egged on by her more experienced best friend, Dolly, who flaunts her burgeoning sexuality. Jeannie lives with her working class parents, Jim and Mary Dougall, Scottish immigrants who live by their conservative and religious beliefs. Jim is a member of the Honor Guard, and has a view that anyone who wears a uniform in service to the country, such as his and Mary's son Jimmie Dougall, is to be admired regardless. Jimmie's non-battle service in Canada is in munitions requisitions. One day, Jeannie announces to her mother that she believes she's pregnant from what was her only sexual encounter to date: being raped by Jimmie's soldier friend Billy when they had a few days leave during the summer. Unlike Dolly, Jeannie didn't have the power or the wherewithal to deal with drunken Billy, and was scared of the aftermath when Billy and Jimmie skulked away in the middle of the night without a word of goodbye due to Billy's act. While Mary has some sympathy for her daughter, Jim, not caring about the details, only sees in his daughter a whore who has brought shame to the family if the truth were ever to emerge, she who cannot ever be married as a wanton woman. What Jim does in dealing with the issue is all in an effort to protect what he sees as his own good name among his friends without any regard for Jeannie's life or her future, she who doesn't truly understand the consequences until she is faced with it directly in real terms. A young girl's brother comes home from the army, and brings an army buddy with him. The three of them go out that night to celebrate, and after much drinking has been done, the brother's friend rapes the sister.

27175 ::: Sona (1948) ::: short ::: SONA is a multi-disciplinary event conceived as an auditory reflection on the Houston environment where the composer, Kurt Stallman, lives--an environment that includes the bellowing horns and deep rumblings of freight trains passing through the city, the rhythms of falling rain, and the wind gusts of passing storms. In 2005, Stallmann connected these elements into a continuous event using a string quartet, computer-generated and processed sounds, recordings taken from the environment, and video made collaboratively with filmmaker Alfred Guzzetti.The music of SONA derives from the sounds of trains. Spectral analyses of the horns provide the chords that form the harmonic structure underlying the work as a whole. Transcriptions of the repetitive rhythmic fragments produced by passing trains characterize individual movements. As SONA unfolds, the musicians are constantly regrouped as soloists, as a duo, and as full quartet. Much of their music is digitally processed in real time and, like the other electronic sounds, dispersed spatially by way of a multi-channel audio system surrounding the audience. In the three video segments, the sounds reveal the raw 'train' elements while the images show railway cars, markings, tracks, wires, bridges and rivers, sometimes moving with dizzying rapidity, sometimes with dreamlike slowness, and sometimes with a stuttering rhythm too fast for the eye alone.

But is this true? There are many theories for the existence of the Moon but all have been proven wrong. The Moon is far older than previously acknowledged by science, quite possibly older than the Earth or the Sun. Our Moon is not a solid object it is indeed hollow and is the only moon in the solar system that has a stationary, near perfect, circular orbit. Ancient cultures have stories of how the Moon came to be in orbit. Why are there unexplained geometric structures on the Moon's surface which correlate to the structures found in ancient Egypt and other primitive locations on Earth? How is it that by miraculous chance the Moon perfectly eclipses our Sun? The mathematical probability that the Sun and Moon would align perfectly for a total eclipse to appear on Earth is zero. Astoundingly, the distance of the Sun to the Moon and the Moon to the Earth that allows for the synchronized and complete and perfect coverage of the Sun is impossible unless the Moon were placed precisely where it is. Only an intelligence could do that. Did an Alien intelligence place the Moon in orbit and do they still reside there today? Learn astounding facts and shocking revelations that prove we are not alone. "We Are Not Alone." - Apollo 14 Astronaut, Edgar D. Mitchell.

The Whitman Publishing Company of Racine, Wisconsin also put out two different Big Little Books, "Buck Jones in 'The Roaring West'-number 1174 and "Buck Jones in 'The Fighting Rangers' --- number 1188 --- based on this serial with over 100 production stills from the serial in each book. Possibly,but not likely, someday the sources that insist on putting the Pat O'Brien from Warners into the cast of Universal serials will either actually see this (and other Universal serials) and learn that the actor in those was one Pat J. O'Brien, who was nearly always billed just as Pat O'Brien. If they don't care to bother with watching the films, there is the possibility that some kind soul will scan and send them some stills of both Pat O'Briens. The opening chapter of this serial --- "The Land Rush" --- finds cowpunchers Montana Larkin and Jinglebob Morgan riding into new territory to join an impending land rush. They carry a mail-order catalog hiding a map giving the location of valuable mineral deposits in the land-rush territory. They stop at the ranch of Jim Parker where Montana saves Parker's daughter Mary from a wild horse. The gabby Jinglebob plays poker with ranch foreman Gil Gillespie and reveals the secret of the map. Gil has his henchman, Hank, steal the map, copy it and return it without being seen. Montana, Jinglebob, Parker, Mary, Gillespie and Ann Hardy, a Parker niece, and some stock-footage land-rushers gather the next day for the land rush, where Montana learns that Gillespie has a copy of the map. Montana is riding hard to beat Gillespie to the mineral deposits but Mary falls from her horse and Montana picks her up on the run but the usually-reliable Silver falls over an unseen embankment, and Montana and Mary are underneath as the other horses and wagons plunge after them. That ends chapter one, but things get worse in chapter two as they find that Gillespie has beaten them to the site and has already staked nine claims.

27351 ::: Postcards from Paris (2013) ::: documentary ::: Remember slideshows? Before Facebook photo albums and e-mail, the way that friends and family would share their adventures abroad was to make slides of their photographs and gather in a darkened living room to watch them projected large on a scroll-down paper screen. This is the structure that director Andrew Shemin has chosen for his aptly titled documentary, "Postcards from Paris." Each clip is like an animated slide, forgoing more than a century of cinematic innovation to harken back to the world's first documentaries, the 1895 static-camera actualité films of the Lumičre Brothers. Shemin's bare-bones technique for observing street life in long takes afford the audience the time to absorb the atmosphere of the scene while closer examination of the image is rewarded with poetical layers of recurring imagery, visual double-entendres, and sudden moments of transcendental beauty, all set to a musical score that evokes the romance, nostalgia, and discovery of a lonesome stroll through Paris. With a perspective on the city that is both exterior and interior--Shemin is an American who lived for 10 years in Paris--"Postcards from Paris" avoids the familiar pitfalls of the hackneyed slideshow with a constantly evolving vision of Paris that toys deftly with the city's well-worn clichés. From the first shot--a sculpture of railroad clocks with stopped hands pointing to a long-expired hour--to the last--a tourist boat fading away into a golden sunset--the movie passes through familiar monuments, exotic immigrant shops, private kisses, public drunkenness, still statues, rhythmic dancers, and lots of tourists taking pictures of themselves. But the film in its totality captures much more than a series of vérité postcard moments. It swells to the image of a Paris real or imagined in every human heart.

However, to save the gorillas the Batwa Pygmies had to leave the forest to make room for the gorillas. They were promised compensation in the form of money, community projects, and a vote in the park committee. However, things did not work out exactly that way. The Batwa are different from many other marginalized peoples in Africa because, instead of a long history of oppression or war that creates a need, the Batwa simply lack Western style knowledge of how to compete for resources and recognition, but are waiting to be taught. From a pre-Stone-Age life in the Bwindi Forest to becoming an agrarian society is a big transition. The Kellermanns' ideas are to first attend to basic health and sanitation needs of the Batwa Pygmies and then schooling. Today, thanks to many individuals and organizations around the world this part is in place. Now, teaching them to stand on their own is the most important step. This requires a committment on the part of the Batwa as well. This project documents the Batwa culture before it is lost and we hope it will help instill the self-confidence and pride in the Batwa themselves which they will need to survive as a culture. It will also bring real visibility to the work going on at the edge of the Bwindi.

27625 ::: Our Mr. Sun (1956) ::: animation ::: Dale Phillips (Since this is an educational film dramatizing facts about the sun it would be difficult to write a summary without spoilers. This summary is meant to excite and encourage viewing.) I saw this educational movie in elementary school in the mid-1950s. The idea was to introduce the sun and its role as center of the solar system. There are close-ups of the sun showing sunspots on the sun's violent surface. It was explained that the Earth rotates on its axis so we see the sun in daytime on our side of the Earth and our side of the earth is turned away from the sun at night. The Earth revolves around the sun in one year causing the seasons. Facts about the sun include the distance from Earth to sun, that the sun is a star, how hot the sun is no one can live there), and how the sun provides light plants need to grow and warms land and water. Without "Our Mr. Sun" Earth would be a frozen, lifeless lump and we would not be here. (I believe another film long these lines is "Hemo the Magnificent" about blood.

For thirty years, he's lived a reclusive life working seven days a week on his art, passing through phases of Mummies, Portals, Icons and hand-sized ceramic pieces he calls Stones. His work transcends our modern pathological consumption as well as the consumer art that defines our society. We step into his world of dreams, transformed by a spiritual consciousness that skirts, or perhaps more accurately blends, Christianity with ancient gods and Paganism, and Reality with the Metaphysical. Spinosa's work transfixes the viewer like the Sirens of Ancient Greek mythology, but Spinosa isn't luring you to a shipwreck. He guides you on a journey into the psyche, both ancient and fresh in an Archaic Revival. The documentary walks you along Spinosa's past, by his canary-yellow Ford Pinto rusting back into the earth, to his heart-wrenching inability to create for years, to a redemptive art and life that soothes with its gentleness and challenges with its audacity. The Spinosa Project will make you ache for something better for your own living soul and reminds us that Art may be humanities' truest legacy.

27644 ::: "From Tee to Green: The Story of Irish Golf" (2014) ::: documentary ::: The story of Irish golf is as intriguing, contradictory and dramatic as the courses dotted along its coastline. The island is designed for golf. It has 3,500 miles of coastline, a landscape of granite and red sandstone mountains, unspoiled white-sand beaches, rugged cliffs that drop 400 feet to the sea and ancient dunes-all millions of years in the making. The lucky convergence of warm Gulf Stream currents, temperate weather, and lush vegetation help create one of the most spectacular golf settings on Earth. Over the course of three films, From Tee To Green explores the history, geography and cultural impact of golf on the island. The series is a journey from Irish golf 's mystical origins in Wicklow to the magical exploits of Harrington, McDowell, McIllroy and Clarke. Along the way there are great characters, tournaments won, tournaments lost, moments of great sporting drama and great financial crises - and it's all set against some of the most spectacular scenery anywhere on the planet. Lavishly shot and set in some of the world's great courses, this is a golfing grand tour laced with fascinating history and sporting folklore. What makes Ireland's golf history especially fascinating is that, uniquely, many of its oldest courses are still around today, giving these two films a timeless backdrop that requires no embellishment or reconstruction. Many of the images shot for this series could have been captured when the game first took hold in Ireland in the latter half of the nineteenth century. Yet while the views themselves are as they were for the pioneers of film, this series will present the beauty and splendour of Irish golf in a very 21st century way. Aerial photography and specially designed slow motion cameras will present the game and these extraordinary settings in a new way, even for a sport which has been something of a plaything for live sports innovators in recent times. Mobile mini-cranes with super slow motion cameras circling tee shots will create a cinematic element that hasn't been seen before in golf coverage. Set against such remarkable backdrops as The Old Head Of Kinsale, Portmarnock, Ballybunion and Royal Co. Down there's also the archive. Featuring a wealth of newsreel footage and unseen 'home movies' dating as far back as the 1910s and singularly the best preserved photographic catalogue in Irish sports, there's a richness and texture to the archive in this series that will add a vitality and intimacy to these films. The series is narrated by Aidan Quinn.

27646 ::: "First Letter First" (1993) ::: game-show ::: Questions were answered on a keyboard (A-Z) rather than the standard buzzer format. The first contestant to press first letter of the correct answer won the points/letter for that particular question. There were three contestants per show over three rounds, each round eliminating one player. Round one was a standard definition of a word, and you pressed the first letter of it on your keyboard. If you get the letter and answer correct, you won that letter. Once four letters (or more0 were won by a single player or more, they then had to create a word from them. The score was counted in words and letters, so someone with 1 word and 4 letters would beat someone with 0 words and 6 letters. The lowest scorer at the end of five minutes was eliminated. Second round was like a hidden crossword grid, with the name of a person hidden in it. As you guessed first letters of words (like Round 1), a few more squares were revealed, and a clue to the famous person was given. The person also eventually appeared in the grid somewhere which gave you two chances of discovering them. This was played as a best-of-three. The winner went on to play a final round which was a pyramid of words (e.g. all letters that ended with -END) with increasing numbers of letters in them, and you had to find them all in the quickest time possible. You got up to two clues for each word, and the first letter of each answer formed a seven-letter word at the bottom of the screen; knowing this could help you fill in gaps in the words you've missed. This end game also had a 'sticky keyboard' so if you made a mistake you'd be locked out for a few seconds before making another guess. The fastest 12 people in this round over the series came back for the finals week.

27693 ::: Infiltrating Hollywood: The Rise and Fall of the Spook Who Sat by the Door (2011) ::: documentary ::: Infiltrating Hollywood: The Rise and Fall of the Spook Who Sat by the Door is an independent documentary on the controversial and FBI repressed 1973 black film The Spook Who Sat By the Door. The Spook Who Sat by The Door is widely hailed as a cult classic and one of the most important underground black productions of the era. Based on Sam Greenlee's 1969 novel, a political satire and semi autobiography, the book imagined a world not very far from reality, in which integration would often occur due to the desire of organizations to appear politically correct, and not because of the belief in African American capability. In the narrative, political race baiting allows a black man to be begrudgingly trained as a CIA agent. This politicized but underground "Spook" would then use the white perception of black simplicity and inadequacy to turn the tables on the establishment and challenge the oppressive forces in his community. The Spook also urged African Americans to realize that the source of their repression existed both inside and outside of the black community. It encouraged blacks to shake off these mental and physical shackles and take back control of their lives. Sam Greenlee wrote a screenplay based on his novel and with actor/director Ivan Dixon sought to produce the film version of his novel. The film faced numerous obstacles including little to no budget and the denial of film permits to shoot in the city of Chicago, the primary location of the novel. On the other hand Sam, Ivan and their cast and crew also experienced the incredible support of African American Mayor Richard Hatcher and the city of Gary, Indiana who stepped in when Chicago Mayor Richard Daley rejected the production of the film within his city limits. Infiltrating Hollywood then reveals the Br'er Rabbit principle of African American existence as Greenlee and Dixon played off of the film industry's expectations of black themed films in the 1970s by cutting their dailies to look like a Blaxploitation film to obtain finishing funds from a major distributor. United Artists took the bait and was dismayed at the final production of the film, however were bound by contract to release The Spook. The Spook used the veil of the Blaxploitation film era to create an oppositional narrative. Instead of images of pimps and prostitutes perpetuated by Hollywood during the 1970s, the film portrayed black people who were willing to fight for their beliefs, to achieve freedom from oppression.

Far from a dry academic discourse, this series proves that plants do much more than just set the stage for life; in fact, like humans and other animals, they play a very active role in it. Power Plants presents some unusual "plant stars" filmed just as animals might be. The techniques of macrophotography give us an "up close and personal" look at their world, while fast motion photography paints a revealing portrait of their territorial conquests, their fighting and seduction techniques, their double-dealing, and their opportunism. We thus gain firsthand knowledge of the plants' strategies at the level of both individuals and species. The narrative explains how plants adapt to the world around them, but also how they modify it. It stresses their "actions" rather than their appearance or anatomy. In so doing, it treats them like "characters" in their own dramas, highlighting the traits they have in common with humans and other animals and the universe they share with us. For this reason, the stories are deliberately intense, structured as investigations with many dramatic twists and turns.

27931 ::: Anton & Minty (1995) ::: short ::: An imaginative, disturbing and witty portrait of life through the eyes of two eccentric young adults. Strong black and white photography combined with an experimental approach to narrative creates a poetic film that is visually arresting and thought provoking. Alnoor Dewshi describes his short film as "a film about dreams and brain effluent, free flowing streams of rubbish". In Anton and Minty, these fluid interactions define the relationship between the characters and the rest of the world. Though Dewshi originally envisaged the brother and sister pair as having South East Asian backgrounds, the fact that Anton (Neville Robinson) is Black and Minty (Syreeta Kumar) Asian adds an intriguing depth to the narrative. Are they lovers? Flatmates? Conspirators in a plot to overthrow everyday normality? We are never told, not even that they are related, and yet it is to the film's great credit that we willingly accept their version of reality. Anton has a mercurial intelligence that often leads the viewer up the garden path, while Minty, prone to falling into a coma with terrifying unpredictability, has an equally strange and vulnerable connection to reality. These two unreliable witnesses make the small piece of the city they inhabit a magical, dazzling place where we find truth in small moments.

28156 ::: No Limit: A Search for the American Dream on the Poker Tournament Trail (2006) ::: documentary ::: Is high-stakes poker a metaphor for the American Dream? A bi-coastal couple, Susan and Tim, carry their independent film company and four-year-old son on an eight month ride through the world of tournament poker. Their plan: Play in six high-stakes poker tournaments. Win some money. Document their journey. Save their company. Business and formerly romantic partners, Susan and Tim often disagree. Susan is a self-directed, high energy gambler who has won poker tournaments before. Tim is her sensible but anxious mate and often her unwanted conscience. No Limit takes us through the highs and lows of their quest. Along the way, we get to meet the peculiar players from around the globe who populate the poker world and hear their thoughts on poker's connection to the American dream. They are, by turns, passionate, overwrought, insightful and absurd. None are boring, and many have become superstars in their sport. Primarily, they speak to the virtues of both risk taking and a psychological understanding of other people. As Mirage Resorts' CEO Bobby Baldwin states, "you can't play business defensively; you can't have a relationship defensively. It's about offense." None of the players are very offensive, rather they're a surprisingly articulate, multi-ethnic set of individuals, admirably determined to follow their own path. At the same time, they follow strict, sometimes amusing poker social conventions. Their colorful interviews are the heart of the movie. As Susan struggles to scoop a jackpot, we also see the effect the poker tour is having on her relationships, both with Tim and their son. Clearly, poker moms are not like soccer moms. While exploring themes of greed, addiction, individualism, talent and freedom, Tim and Susan have made an entertaining documentary, guiding us through an offbeat world few of us will enter. Is there a happy ending? This is about the American Dream, after all...
28157 ::: Revolution Green (2007) ::: documentary ::: Revolution Green is about one man's vision to manufacture biodiesel and one man's quest to use it in his big rig; it's about the American dream and how renewable energy is critical to the future of the world economy.

The film takes an intrepid journey through the darker corridors of the American media landscape, where global media conglomerates exercise extraordinary political, social, and economic power. The overwhelming collective power of these firms raises troubling questions about democracy. Highly revealing interviews, actuality, and archive material, tell insider accounts of a broken media system, where journalists are prevented from pursuing controversial news stories, people are censored for speaking out against abuses of government power, and individual lives are shattered as the arena for public expression has been turned into a private profit zone. Will the Internet remain free, or be controlled by a handful of powerful, monopolistic corporations? The media crisis is at the core of today's most troubling issues, and people everywhere are taking action, trying to change the media monopolies' strangle hold on information. This Left wing smear job blames the media's censorship of truth on Ronald Reagan, as if he only deregulated television networks, instead of blaming the cable networks owners such as Soros, Murdoch, Turner, and Buffet. Not too mention the era of misinformation only grew worse during Clinton's administration despite the birth of the World Wide Web, and forgets Obama administration's attempt to regulate the internet, and allow large corporations like Comcast, Google, and Netflix free reign over the internet. Just look at the cast of contributors, it's a cowardly attack on a great man, great American, 1 of the greatest US presidents, Leader's of the Free World there has ever been, not too mention of a deceased man who can no longer defend his honor.

28176 ::: Water on the Table (2010) ::: documentary ::: Water On The Table features best selling author, public figure and water-warrior Maude Barlow, and her crusade to have water declared a human right, protected from privatization. "Water must be declared a public trust and a human right that belongs to the people, the ecosystem and the future, and preserved for all time and practice in law. Clean water must be delivered as a public service, not a profitable commodity." Water On the Table captures the public face of Maude Barlow as well as the unscripted woman behind the scenes, and shadows her life on the road in Canada and the United States over the course of a year as she leads an unrelenting schedule. From 2008 - 2009 Barlow served as the U.N. Senior Advisor on Water to Father Miguel d'Escoto Brockmann, President of the 63rd Session of the United Nations. More than a portrait of an activist, Water On The Table presents several dramatic opposing arguments. Barlow's critics are policy and economic experts who argue that water is no different than any other resource, and that the best way to protect freshwater is to privatize it. It is proposed that Canada bulk-export its water to the United States in the face of an imminent water crisis. Cinematic haiku-style images by Director of Photography Steve Cosens CSC, linger on watersheds, wetlands, rivers, estuaries, waterfalls and lakes, bridging themes and questions and elevating water beyond the political, and into the realm of our own soul as a species on Earth. Maude Barlow became involved with the issue of Canada's water in the mid-1980s, when it became clear that it was to be included as a tradable good in the Canada -US Free Trade Agreement. She tried very hard to get it removed, then stayed involved in the fight for Canada's water when it was included in NAFTA as not only a good, but also as an investment. Water has since defined her her work globally. Water On The Table explores Canada's relationship to its freshwater, arguably its most precious natural resource. Is water a commercial good like running shoes or Coca-Cola? Or, is water a human right like air? An award winning and Gemini Nominated (Donald Brittain Award for Best Social Political Documentary) theatrical and broadcast documentary featuring best selling author, activist and public figure Maude Barlow, and her crusade to have water declared a human right, protected from privatization.

Sometimes, he was a baby-face, or good guy. Other times, he was a heel, or villain. Because of his understanding of crowd psychology, he played both roles masterfully. In Canada, Siki became a household name among fans and a legendary figure among wrestlers. Rocky Johnson, a wrestler of note, eventually became Siki's most loyal student. Years later, Rocky Johnson's son, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, would incorporate Sweet Daddy's lessons into his own repertoire.

28325 ::: "Bottle Boys" (1984) ::: comedy ::: Star of the oh-so-British series of saucy Confessions movies, 'Robin Askwith' (qv), was the leading man in Bottle Boys, portraying an accident-prone, football-mad milkman doing the rounds for Dawson Diaries, based in south London. His fellow milkmen were blokish and berkish - among them Jock the boozy Scotsman, teddy-boy Billy Watson and Joe the obligatory black, while Stan was the Welsh-born depot manager and Sharon his big-boobed, unable-to-type secretary. The series was predictably high on low-brow humour and slapstick, but, while his impish grin was much in evidence, viewers were at least spared the famed Askwith derriere that had loomed so large and so often on British cinema screens in the 1970s. They were, however, treated to the sight of the actor sporting chicken and cow costumes (don't ask) and performing such dangerous stunts as clinging from a sixth-floor parapet and meeting Mrs Thatcher (not the real one, of course). It is with a certain degree of relief that one notes that, reputedly, Bottle Boys was despised within ITV circles and its lack of political correctness was the last straw for certain of its comedy executives. ITV sitcoms had often plumbed the depths, but this was the limit.

As herself, Filler recounts her experiences growing up Jewish in white Anglo-Saxon New Zealand and poignantly tells of visiting the sites of Nazi death camps with her father, Auschwitz survivor Sol Filler. Overflowing with pathos, love, passion, and humor, the performance is framed by backstage segments, which intimately reveal the person behind the characters. This very personal and inspiring film takes its audience from laughter to sadness...and back again.

28428 ::: Alien Contact: Secret Societies (2015) ::: documentary ::: Thousands of years ago a special, genetically advanced race of beings came to Earth. They were seen as Gods by primitive man and worshipped. They set themselves apart and yet some mated with humans and created a special race. When these watchers departed, this hybrid species remained and taught mankind. Civilization emerged with writing, art, science, mathematics, geometry, engineering, architecture and more and spread around the globe. The human race, that had existed for tens of thousands of years as hunter gatherers now had systematic knowledge on a startling level. They organized and cultivated the land, forged steel, built massive pyramids, built empires, and eventually became so technologically bound that the entire race could be monitored and governed with ease. All this transpired seemingly out of nowhere, we do not see archaeological evidence to support the evolution of these staggering advancements but can link it all back to antiquity if we look carefully because the real story is that our benefactors had an ulterior motive. They took control of our hearts and minds; they control this world, they control every individual from the depths of outer space. From the moment you are born, you are numbered and moved through a process to feed their machine. Nobody is truly free because we are all working for the masters. On rare occasions, they are revealed to the world and in the 18th century we had a glimpse of their massive power. We know them as the Illuminati. From huge international corporations, to hidden governments, from secret societies to medicine, the Illuminati are in control.

28430 ::: On the Bus (2001) ::: documentary ::: On The Bus' original intention was to be a fun-loving, rambunctious, half-hour Internet program about a group of young, gay men on a bus trip from Los Angeles to Burning Man, a festival of radical self expression in the Nevada desert. However, after returning from a week of shooting, stereotypes had fallen apart, and it became clear that this story had far more to tell than a half hour internet show could lend. Almost immediately On The Bus challenges the viewer with the notion that "Even in absolute freedom, some things are still sacred." - Damon Intrabartolo (cast member #6) . It is here that Director Dustin Lance Black begins this story. Lance is hired by The Digital Entertainment Network (DEN) to produce, direct and participate in an Internet reality show with an all gay cast. He then hires Billy Kaufman as co-producer and cast member number two. Charles Kinsley, a gorgeous actor/waiter, Jason Webb, porn star Dean O'Conner, and Jimmy Sjodin, a Swedish Olympic diver soon follow. Concerned with the Network's desire to cast only the most attractive men, director Dustin Lance Black lobbies hard to include Damon Intrabartolo, an average looking music composer, who climbs on board armed with wry observations, and a biting wit. Once on the road, bumps along the way lend to an unplanned sleep-over in a Reno hotel. It is here that sexual tensions breed rivalry, the most intimate details of these fast new friends are revealed, and question number two arises, "Sex, Sex, Sex, maybe that's all there is." - frustrated director Dustin Lance Black. Arriving at Burning Man, it would seem that nothing is too radical or extreme for the adventuresome sextet. Innocence and experience come face to face as members of the cast explore the sexuality, drug culture, and wild freedom of the event. However, when sexual tensions finally come to a head, a sandstorm smashes through their campsite acting as a metaphor for the group's inner turmoil. Over the course of the week the show evolves, and sexual tensions take a back seat as the cameras delve into the often-conflicted souls of this eclectic group, shattering the happy-go-lucky stereotypes they were originally brought on board to brandish. Through newfound friendships, and forming animosities, these young men explore the darkness, freedom, joy, and adventure of Nevada's annual Burning Man event, and come out questioning the roles they play and the masks they wear in their daily lives.

Each section tells a story about distance between different time and space, focusing on the subtle moments when people are suddenly confronted with modernity and gradually become lost in the transition between this and their present lives. Without any dialogue, simply working with image, sound and actions of the characters, these 13 dramatic, realistic and mysterious scenes are painted. It tries to describe today's human condition in an abstract way - its alienation, abandonment and eternal loneliness. The coastal city of Zhuhai, once a small fishing village, began its process of industrialization in the 1980s, and now exists as a special economic area in a now-burgeoning Chinese economy. Zhengfan Yang's debut feature is set in Zhuhai, his hometown, whose process of historical change the director has elected to depict by way of 13 long, "distant" takes, the camera situated far away from his "characters," with little discernible connections between each scene: Yang focuses on subtle moments wherein the city's residents suddenly are forced to confront modernity, finding themselves lost in transition. Yang's highly esoteric and beautifully photographed work evokes both Chinese landscape painting, as well as filmmakers as diverse as James Benning and Roy Andersson - each long take - a building block, if you will - contains confidently choreographed action, in turns tragic and farcial, all in the name of exploring the psychological and political distance felt by its alienated characters, who persist with their lonely lives in a rapidly industrializing geography, with no control over their destinies or their culture.

Willena Cannon, a lifelong civil rights activist and member of the Workers Viewpoint Organization, helped arrange a "Death to The Klan" rally and conference. As she and her 10-year old son, Kwame, began to participate, the worst possible scenario became a reality. With police suspiciously absent, a caravan of cars filled with Klan and Nazi members rolled through the rally, engaged in a fight with the protesters and opened fire with shotguns, rifles and pistols, killing 5 and wounding 10. Live footage from local news cameras caught the massacre in its brutal form, yet each of the accused were eventually found innocent of all charges. In this award-winning documentary, Andy Coon explores the buried evidence from both state and federal court prosecutions by examining the trials under a new lens; he vividly exposes civil trial records, through documentation and interviews, which proved the existence of local police, FBI and ATF informants surrounding the rally. Going one-step beyond the vision of A&E and The History Channel's coverage of the event, Coon fast-forwards seven years later, to the plight of an immature, yet harmless, 17-year-old Kwame Cannon. Arrested for six counts of non-violent burglary, Cannon naively accepts a pre-trial plea bargain consisting of two consecutive life sentences. Here's the catch: * Proper legal representation was provided to Kwame * The judge actually tried to warn him of the consequences for accepting the plea * His mother was advised to skip the hearing due to her roots in community activism. If it takes a village to raise a child, then this is the story of Greensboro's Child.

28747 ::: Vola Vola (2009) ::: animation ::: VolaVola is a choral story that tells various facets of contemporary lifestyles, comparing feelings and world views of three different generations. The underlying assumption of the film is that the use of certain media, affects the definition of needs and aspirations of choice, for those who benefit. Although it is a drama, VolaVola exudes confidence for the future. The story clearly shows the hope that we are living the last days of a long winter, and that the value system on which the Internet generation is founded will help make the world a better place. Although it will be starring avatars, VolaVola is a visceral film about human beings, an invitation to be alive and alert, to always have your own and new vision about things. The atmosphere will be syncopated, hyper-realistic, slightly surreal, not minimalistic, very hard and always suspended. From a strictly linguistic point of view, it will attempt to unite, in a dense but free way, shooting techniques and styles of its various media together in the belief that the shift from remediation to visual mash up is an important formalization of the need to regenerate the film practice. By shifting the emphasis of one's action from the mere metalinguistic reflection, to a vocabulary reutilization, we can pursue a deeper interaction with reality.

Armed with $100,000, a three-minute film idea, and an award-winning short film director Glenn, they decide it's time to change their lives. The script The Venus Factory, they conclude, is too big to be told in three minutes, so they're going to make it into a feature film. Making Venus documents their journey through pre-production, trouble with the unions, a script being rewritten only days before the shoot and escalating costs. In-between, however, there is also lots of fun - body painting, dancing and absurd costumes plus a pained casting director wondering just who was responsible for getting all of her extras drunk. Jason and Julian have limitless enthusiasm for their film, and are proud of their business acumen in getting out there and raising more money by "knocking on doors" and getting investors on board. Discovering later that most of those doors belong to family and family friends makes this pride seem somewhat misplaced. Things really start to go wrong in post-production: two failed test screenings with a re-shoot in between and the film still doesn't work, a decision to sack the director and employ another, disgruntled investors and another shoot to fix the holes in the previous cut. The budget's now out of control, and The Venus Factory and its producers are in real trouble. Worse still, Jason and Julian have approached every Australian and US distributor......and no one wants to release it. Financially the walls are closing in, and creditors are swarming wanting their pound of flesh. Will they be able to attract a buyer for the film before it's too late? Making Venus is a documentary that combines candid interviews and an observational documentary style. Ultimately a character piece, it documents the journey of the producers, Jason and Julian, cursed with too much money and too little knowledge.

29083 ::: Bulgarian Stories (2007) ::: documentary ::: Bulgaria Stories is a film about people, their singing, and a culture that literally disappears before our very eyes, whose last musical sounds dissolve into nothingness. In the year 1977 NASA launches several messages from us. Stored inside the Voyager spacecraft among The Beatles, a newborn's cry, Beethoven and the sound of a dog barking, the voice of Bulgarian folklore singer Valya Balkanska drifts through the endless expanses of the cosmos. 39 years have since passed. No one in Bulgaria cares for extraterrestrial life anymore, among the population a majority has to live without steady work, while 15 Euros of retirement pension hardly suffice for paying food and electricity.

29084 ::: The Port of Last Resort (1998) ::: documentary ::: The film presents the little-known story of the 20,000 European Jews who fled to Shanghai between late 1937 and 1941. After 1939, Shanghai was the last and only resort to find safe haven from the Nazis, though not that safe either, as the film shows. This was due to Shanghai's status as a free port not requiring entry papers, and the relative tolerance of the Japanese occupiers, who, far from being saviors, resisted their Grand Ally's (Germany) demand to exterminate the Jews, and even prevented the actions of the Nazi "Butcher of Warsaw" who was assigned to liquidate the Shanghai Jews. After the Communist takeover of China, all traces of the Jews' existence, including a Jewish cemetery with 2,000 graves, were razed. The Jews passage through Shanghai is revealed, and preserved through four survivors (Fred Fields now of Miami, Ernest and Illo Heppner, and Siegmar Simon), and an incredible collage of rare film footage assembled by Joan Grossman and Paul Rosdy who wrote, edited, directed and produced the documentary. This award-winning documentary presents the story of nearly 20,000 European Jewish refugees who fled to Shanghai from 1938 to 1941. Shanghai, a free port that did not require papers for entry, became the "last resort" for many Jews seeking a safe haven from the Nazis.

29091 ::: In the Wake of the Flood (2010) ::: documentary ::: On the eve of her 70th birthday, Canadian writer Margaret Atwood set out on an international tour criss-crossing the British Isles and North America to celebrate the publication of her new dystopian novel, The Year of the Flood. But rather than mount a traditional tour to promote a book's publication, Atwood conceived and executed something far more ambitious and revelatory-a theatrical version of her novel. Along the way she reinvented what a book tour could be. But Atwood wasn't selling books as much as advocating an idea. Her primary concern was to do what she could to ensure the continued life of the birds of the skies-especially song birds. Atwood's odyssey is now captured in Ron Mann's new film, In The Wake of the Flood. Rendered as a fly-on-the-wall film verite, In The Wake of the Flood mixes new footage, archival materials and evocative CGI in featuring Atwood on the road and at home as an aging but buoyant literary rock star spreading a message of warning and hope as she staged and participated in the novel production. Margaret Atwood is, of course, one of the most acclaimed literary voices of this generation. The author of more than a dozen novels, numerous collections of poetry, children's books, and countless essays, Atwood's triumphs have been lauded on the highest levels throughout the world. In each community she visited, Atwood joined volunteer performers in a loose-knit, grass roots production drawn from the text of her novel. With its mystical, Blakean overtones, Atwood's theatrical version of The Year of the Flood acts as a song cycle that seeks to shake the human race into an awareness of the fragility of the natural world and our vital connection to it. To bring her novel into a live setting, Atwood teamed with Los Angeles composer Orville Stoeber to write a new style of devotional music influenced by the related genres of country ballads, gospel, jazz and folk. Each performance included a cast of local readers and singers taking the roles of different characters in key scenes from the novel. The events were primarily staged in cathedrals, adding a grand visual element to the proceedings and a layer of ceremonial gravitas. From Edinburgh and London to New York City, Toronto and Vancouver, Atwood emerges as a wizened elf whose rare sensibility is always in the foreground: a life and art coalesced into a unity of medium and message.

29101 ::: Perry Como's Christmas in Austria (1976) ::: music ::: The tour starts in Steyr, in Upper Austria, bringing scenes associated with Christmas there, in Salzburg, the Salzkammergut and finally Switzerland. The music chosen for this tour is principally taken from baroque concertos evoking Christmas. Notice that the DVD box states "Christmas in Austria" at the top and does NOT mention Perry Como. That's because this is NOT the Perry Como Show from 1976 that we like to remember. There is NO traditional Christmas Music or singing by Perry Como in this video. In fact, Perry Como and Senta Berger do NOT appear anywhere in this video. And the director for this video is NOT Steven Pouliot. The video does show some nice winter scenes and has nice classical music playing in background (no talking). Nice music but the big surprise is that "Silent Night" (Stille Nacht), which was composed in Austria, is omitted from the video. Perhaps we can thank NAXOS which is headquartered in China.

29120 ::: Proving Holiness (2007) ::: documentary ::: The documentary will explain the canonization process through the stories of four individuals who are in different stages of the canonization process, Saint Faustina, Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha, Archbishop Oscar Romero and Monsignor Nelson Baker. For expert information Daybreak's crew traveled to the Vatican and interviewed members of the congregation for the Cause of Saints and the postulators of the individual causes. Monsignor Nelson Baker is a Servant of God. He is in the first stage of the canonization process. Father Baker, as he is affectionately known by his diocese in Buffalo, NY, used his skills as a businessman to champion the needs of the poor. He created many institutions for the disadvantaged. Only after these institutions were financially independent did he build a magnificent basilica in honor of Our Lady of Victory. Interviews have been recorded with the former vice postulator of his cause Msgr. Wurtz, who was also the rector of Our Lady of Victory Basilica. The Daybreak crew traveled to El Salvador for interviews and footage of the anniversary Archbishop Oscar Romero's death. He was shot and killed while saying mass at the altar. People in El Salvador believe he is a martyr. His cause is under way at the Vatican and he is a Servant of God. If the Vatican declares him a martyr he does not need a miracle to be beatified, but a miracle would be needed for him to be declared a saint by the Pope. Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha is the patron of the Native American Catholic movement. She was a Native American who converted to Catholicism in the 1600's which was no easy task at that point in history. The Daybreak crew attended the Tekakwitha Conference in El Paso, TX. and gathered footage regarding her life story and the movement supporting her canonization. Videotaping was done in Fonda, New York at the shrine of Blessed Tekakwitha and in Kahanawake near Montreal where Kateri spent the last of her years and where her tomb is located. Saint Faustina was a humble Polish nun who is said to have received the Message of Divine Mercy from Jesus. When Pope John Paul II was Archbishop of Krakow he initiated Saint Faustina's cause for canonization. Daybreak traveled to The Sanctuary of Divine Mercy in Krakow, Poland where interviews and footage were videotaped regarding the life of Saint Faustina. The crew also traveled to the U. S. National Shrine of Divine Mercy in Stockbridge, MA to follow the story of how the veneration of Saint Faustina and The Divine Mercy Message has spread worldwide.

29147 ::: Heavy Metal: The Evolution of the Naval Warship (2009) ::: reality-tv ::: This two-hour series covers the evolution of the design and armament of ocean-going warships. From wooden hulls and sails to nuclear powered floating naval bases, Heavy Metal has it all. The first hour of the series tells the story of wind-driven vessels, from the Viking longship to the effective end of the sail era, in 1860. The Vikings used a larger version of their longship for trade. It evolved into the medieval cog, a merchant vessel, which, led to the development of the carrack. This ship, with the advent of gunpowder, evolved into the galleon. The most famous example this new style was Drake's Golden Hinde, and having a fleet of these much nimbler ships enabled the English to defeat the awkward Spanish Armada, in 1588. The galleon quickly evolved into the tougher, faster Dutch East Indiaman trading ship, which provided the basic design of warships from the mid-1600s to 1860. Nelson's Victory and the other great ships of the Napoleonic era were really just larger, somewhat more refined versions of the Dutch East Indiaman. The second hour of Heavy Metal covers the steam age from 1860 with the launching of the Warrior to about 2010. It is the story of the evolution and extinction of the battleship, which is a specific type of vessel, designed to fight other battleships in large, decisive fleet actions.

The boys are torn between a future somewhere out there beyond the borders of town or making do with their inheritance of a run-down pool hall and a decrepit movie house -- the legacy of their friend and mentor, Sam the Lion. As high school graduation approaches, they learn some difficult lessons about love, loneliness, and jealousy. Then folks stop attending the second-run features at the movie house and the time comes for the last picture show. With the closure of the movie house, the boys feel that a stage of their lives is closing. They stand uneasily on the threshold of the rest of their lives. (The movie was adapted from the novel by Larry McMurtry). It's 1951 in the small town of Anarene, located in the dust bowl of Texas. Sam the Lion, owner of the local café, pool hall and movie theater, and the unofficial father figure to many of the young men of the town, is one of the few people who seems content with his life in Anarene. Life in Anarene for the younger generation in particular seems to hold little interest and not much of a future. The sensitive Sonny Crawford and brusque Duane Jackson are high school seniors, co-captains of the hapless high school football team, and best friends. Duane is dating the beautiful Jacy Farrow, the daughter of the town's oil baron. Jacy's mother, Lois Farrow, offers Jacy advice for her future: marry the boy who offers the greatest opportunity, especially in escaping Anarene, that boy who isn't Duane. Jacy goes on that pursuit for good or bad. Sonny just broke up with his long time girlfriend Charlene Tuggs, the two who dated seemingly since there was nothing better to do. While Sonny dreams of Jacy, as do many of the boys, he ends up in an affair with middle aged Ruth Popper, the unhappy wife of the high school's football and basketball coach. These encounters and relationships, especially for Sonny, Duane and Jacy, who are just coming to the age of exploring their sexuality, show just what future there is for them in Anarene.

The three days that separate him from the Big 40 might present an opportunity to change everything, or he might just lose it all instead.... The Soviet update of the literary concept of the "superfluous man," filmed at the end of the Brezhnev Stagnation, was Balayan's most successful title. It was here that he first engaged Oleg Yankovsky, an actor who subsequently appeared in the majority of the director's films; without guile or pathos, he captures the existential dimension and contradictions of the morally questionable hero. The film surprisingly eluded the narrow gaze of the remorseless censors and was thus able to present audiences with a faithful portrayal of the social paralysis that befell the pre-perestroika era. Balayan's plans for a sequel set in the rip-roaring world of 1990s capitalism were abandoned.

After an absence of four decades, and roughly seventy years since last constructed in the United States, the Flying Turns is now back! With virtually no available historic plans or construction documentation from the original rides, park president Dick Knoebel, ride designer John Fetterman, project manager Jim Martini, construction consultant Leonard Adams, wooden coaster designer Mike Boodley and dozens of construction personnel worked over seven years building an all-new 'classic' coaster, rekindling a passion and craftsmanship thought lost to time.

29424 ::: Balancing the Cosmos (2009) ::: documentary ::: An intimate portrait of a modern indigenous Maya city and its people, traditions and ritual. Filmed over the course of eight years in the highlands of Guatemala. In Tz'utujil and Spanish with English subtitles and voice over. This film is not Apocalyptic! It doesn't refer to our culture's fantasies or longings about 2012 as an end of the ancient Maya's long count calendar. We wanted to see what tradition meant in a modern Maya city. What survives in the face of social, religious and political pressures? Some say that Santiago Atitlán is the largest purely indigenous town in the Americas, and with a population of over fifty thousand speaking the Maya language of Tz'utujil it well may be. This is a look at the nearest existing equivalent to an ancient Maya city; a community driven by commerce, politics and religious ritual just as all cities have been throughout history. It's hard to think of another ancient civilisation which has so much resonance with a contemporary society where people feel such a direct connection with their ancestors. I wanted this film to reflect my experience of the town, not to be a vehicle for explanations, theories or opinions about it. These are years of change everywhere and for everyone, and the Tz'utujil are no exception. This film was made over the course of eight years. The dramatis personae changed - people died, people grew and changed. The town changed, tradition continued.

29427 ::: Let There Be Light: Nicola Tesla (2005) ::: drama ::: Historical fiction based on real fact about what allowed Nicola Tesla to continue inventing for 20 years after his near demise by his own hand. It's the third decade of the 20th century, and master inventor/innovator Nicola Tesla is getting...old, his physical health not doing so good. His mental health is not so good either. He has spent his entire life trying to serve and revolutionize the world through his ground breaking inventions, but his scientific and economic competitors have thrown him out of the loop, leaving him in a dingy apartment in New York with barely enough money to feed himself and the animals around him, the only life forms he still trusts. The most prominent person who discredited and betrayed Nicola is Thomas Edison, all American success story who made much of his fortune by stealing Tesla's work, particularly in Nicola's younger years when he came to America to work for the famous inventor. But now Nicola is done...no one is listening to him anymore, and all of his funding has dried up. His brain has dried up with regard to new ideas as well, and 'when the singer has no songs to sing, the singer should be no more'. He puts off jumping off the roof of his overdue-rent apartment by a reporter, Virginia, a young woman who claims to have been sent by Milosovich, the only historian still interested in the old man who was once nominated for the Nobel Prize but is now labelled as a delusional idealist, and political subversive. Virginia claims that she wants to do a story on Nicola, but he soon interviews her, finding out very quickly that she is far more intelligent than her station as a lower rung interviewer for the NY Times. Virginia has a brilliant scientific mind that just needs someone to recognize it, and to let her participate in the "mans' world" of scientific innovation. Finally seeing someone to whom he can pass on his Torch of scientific wisdom and the vitality-infused Spiritual Core from which it comes, Nicola (as his health deteriorates) relates his life story and most valued inventions to Virginia. She tries to convince him that being a success in the world as it is requires one to 'give the world what it wants, not what it needs', but such is the mandate of selfish capitalists such as Edison according to the still idealistic, humanity-serving Tesla. They argue, and then connect even deeper than before, Tesla offering to take Virginia on as his only apprentice, and willing to entrust her the lab book with his most valued (and guarded) ideas in it. He is willing to do this even though he figures out that she was not sent by Milosovich, as she originally claimed. But Virginia teaches Nicola something as well. The old man finally realizes regarding his inventions that the world accepting his ideas is up to 'a Higher Wisdom' and his Calling, and job, is to just keep coming up with new ideas. It eases his tortured soul and gets his creative soul working again. He sends Virginia out the door with his most trusted lab books, convinced that she will build upon his discoveries with her own. But, Virginia is confronted after she leaves by Thomas Edison, Nicola's arch rival who is still bent on discrediting Tesla as well as stealing from him. Virginia is to get a lab or her own and funding, and lots of money from Edison as part of the deal...but, she delays handing over the book to Edison. She keeps Tesla's most valued and guarded discoveries to herself as she walks away from both scientists, now having to figure out who SHE really is and needs to become. Aging inventor Nicola Tesla, after being banished by the world he tried to save, is 'rescued' from commiting suicide by a potential protege who has a secret agenda which is his worse nightmare, involving even more potential betrayal/heartbreak.

The three LP records published after a first one-year field-research in 1969-70 were a "phenomenal surprise" (Garfias) as they revealed a completely unknown music (outside of the Solomon Islands) of an exceptional beauty and complexity in its instrumental and vocal polyphonies. It seemed to the researcher an absolute necessity to document visually what had been published on sound recordings, showing in detail all the playing techniques, body movements of performers, and spatial coordination of music ensembles and dancers. The documentary consists of a comprehensive inventory of all the twenty musical genres of the 'Are'are people and is structured according to native classification, along with explanations by master musician 'Irisipau.
29433 ::: Pat Steir: Artist (2017) ::: documentary ::: Although Pat Steir is best recognized for her mesmerizing dripped, splashed, and poured "waterfall" paintings, which she developed in the late 1980s, she has been at the forefront of American painting for decades, with an artistic practice that spans half a century.

29480 ::: It for Others (2013) ::: documentary ::: With 'It for Others', Irish artist Duncan Campbell has created an impressive study of the web of ideas that we enshroud things, art, consumption, life and death with - nothing less. Combining essayistic combination of gorgeous archive footage, animation and a new performance by Michael Clark Company, his latest work elaborates on Chris Marker and Alain Resnais's essay film 'Les statues meurent aussi' (1953), where the Western exoticisation of African art is presented in an elegantly questioning meditation about how we see objects and movements, and endow them with meaning - be it a wooden African sculpture, a packet of cigarettes, the touch of a hand or the exchange of consumer goods. 'It for Others' refers both formally and discursively to a great number of modernistic art movements and theories, but brings them up to date with a twist, which simultaneously undermines the coolly aloof analysis that we are first presented with, and subsequently anchors it in real situations - namely the civil war in 1970s Ireland and a contemporary Chinese sweatshop, where Che Guevara t-shirts are produced on the assembly line.

Should he not succeed in the allotted time, three days, the girl will pay the penalty with her life.

Using rare footage and a period soundtrack, this special deconstructs the 1970s, from Watergate to Studio 54.

On August 15, 2008, the company which manages the Italian railway system sacked, for the second time, the driver and delegate for safety Dante De Angelis for having publicly revealed the risks of high velocity trains.

This is the long shadow of privatization: deaths which are photocopies of those described in Ken Loach's prestigious film on railways "The Navigators" while company managers with seven-figure salaries play in real life with real lives just like the old hobbyist does with his model trains. The precarious situation of the railway workers parallels the conditions of an adolescent subjected to the deaf choices of parents, as in the case of Lessyta, the 15 year-old black student who refuses to leave her house by the railway tracks where she was born and raised.

29653 ::: Yellowing (2016) ::: documentary ::: The turmoil that has overtaken Hong Kong since its return to Chinese sovereignty in 1997 has spawned a new generation of young, passionately committed activist filmmakers; they want to tell Hong Kong's story with Hong Kong voices. And the best indie documentary to have emerged so far from the HKSAR is this year's Yellowing, by Chan Tze Woon, a 29-year-old with degrees in policy studies and film production. Hong Kong's fraught, tense relationship with its mainland Chinese overseers came to a head with the Umbrella Movement of 2014. A crowd of protesters stormed Civic Square on September 27. The next day police shocked most residents of the HKSAR by attacking the growing crowds with volleys of tear gas, whereupon a wide cross section of Hong Kongers occupied the streets in several areas and stayed for almost 6 weeks. Chan took his camera on the streets for 67 days during these events. He shot 1000 hours of footage, out of which he crafted a sensational and moving document featuring revealing portraits of students who camped out on the streets and organized a temporary, alternative, cooperative and communitarian Hong Kong. Richly detailed, engrossing and dramatic, this film captures the sights, sounds, and feelings of a time when tens of thousands of Hong Kong citizens, led by energized and idealistic youth, defied their government and demanded real democracy. When Umbrella Movement happened two years ago; when tens of thousands took on the streets of Hong Kong in fight of democracy, student leaders had become the heart of the civil disobedient movement and public attention. But Yellowing is not a documentary that celebrates stars and leaders, nor does it give a journalistic account of the movement. Rather it shed light on the nameless, ordinary young people and their most heartfelt emotions. Their frustration, timidity and sadness- all but to be channeled away in wits and determination. The film is composed of 20 memorandum, each recording a different aspect of the movement. Some being scenes of violence we saw in the news, but more of daily chores, that in the most realistic respect, made this seemingly unrealistic defiance possible. Where there is discord, may we bring harmony; and where there is despair, may we bring hope. With his camera, director Chan Tze-woon had recorded a reminder for his 2014 - the year when he was full of dreams and courage.

29819 ::: It's Getting Dark (2016) ::: documentary ::: The setting is a Russian living room. The children are playing a game, their father is cooking and the baby is lying fast asleep. The only person missing is their mother. She has just been arrested, charged with state treason and is now facing up to 20 years in prison. The camera captures this scene and others like it in four different living rooms where fractured families try to go about their daily lives. It's the very ordinariness of the images that makes the absence of one parent so tangible. In the background, we hear telephone conversations that betray the feelings of powerlessness and despair. The domestic scenes are intercut with shots of the street through the window, accompanied by the reading of letters from Soviet political prisoners to their children. Blackboard drawings tell the story of the absent parents, each sentenced to jail terms ranging from four to eight years. Officially, their crime was treason or drug possession, but all they actually did was to express criticism of government policy at some point. The domestic scenes draw attention to these ordinary citizens who simply disappear behind bars for years, offering an alternative and poignant perspective on the notion of the "political prisoner."
29820 ::: Morning Sun (2003) ::: documentary ::: About the shifting, unpredictable currents behind the Chinese Cultural Revolution, this documentary shows the various phases of the 12 years from 1964 through the purging of the Gang of Four at the end of 1976, with some retrospective information about the Long March and the 1958 Great Leap forward. It is built around contemporary interviews with survivors of three families: The most prominent is Liu Shaoqi, the President of China until 1967 & the highest ranking target of the revolution, his wife, Wang Guangmei and his daughter Liu Ting. The most complete coverage was given to a former secretary to Mao, Li Rui, who was banished when he questioned the Great Leap forward. He was rehabilitated in the early 60's, but not brought back into the Party and was banished again when the Cultural revolution started. Li's daughter Li Nanyang who was 11 or 12 when Li Rui was first imprisoned, was a staunch supporter of the Cultural Revolution, but she was never allowed to join the Party because of her father's background. Both daughters' reactions to and discomfort with their fathers was a major thread. This film also highlights the social pressure and Li Nanyang's loss of face among her student peers, which lasted until her father was rehabilitated in 1979. The third family was middle class and capitalist before the 1949 revolution and was therefore suspect. The older brother, Yu Luoke who was refused entry to university, asserted that the revolution was going astray by focusing on the family background of students. His poster asking for equal treatment for everyone, no matter what their family background was celebrated for several months, but then he was arrested and finally executed in 1970. His brother, Yu Luowen now still does not know the whole story, but can tell of how their paper was shut down when the winds changed in 1968. Another thread focused on two teenaged Red Guards, and their disillusionment with the violence that developed after the first few months of the Cultural Revolution.

29903 ::: Risen: The Story of Chron 'Hell Razah' Smith (????) ::: documentary ::: Wu Tang Clan affiliate Hell Razah has always been a heralded MC, known for his sharp lyrics and intricate flow.

Later dubbed "Heaven Razah" when he went solo in the mid-2000s, the rising, young MC made headlines when he as struck with a brain aneurysm in 2010. As a result of this tragedy, Hell Razah has spent the last 5 years slowly recovering from this near-fatal incident, which left him in a coma and unable to use his left side. As Razah has been struggling to learn how to walk, talk and rhyme again, filmmaker Frank Meyer has been documenting his journey every step of the way. The Director and Hell Razah go way back, as Meyer was Sunz of Man's publicist back in 1997, and he filmed Razah for his G4tv web series Freestyle 101, which featured Ice-T, The Game, Mobb Deep, Fat Joe, Cypress Hill, and was recognized by Steve Jobs at an Apple pod-casting conference. The resulting documentary film Risen: The Story of Chron "Hell Razah" Smith is the result of 5 years of filming, and 17 years of friendship. "Razah's story is one everyone can relate to," says Meyer. "He was a talented kid from the streets who worked hard and nearly achieved all of his dreams before this tragedy struck. Now his life has been completely refocused. A lot of rappers will tell you about how they have been shot 9 times, but they won't let you see them struggling through the rehab process or questioning their future." Risen: The Story of Chron "Hell Razah" Smith will provide an uncompromising look into the world of rehabilitation and redemption, the likes of which hip hop has never seen before. From Razah's physical therapy to his spiritual journey, from his quest to rap again and desire to love again, audiences will rise and fall with this charismatic kid from Red Hook Housing Projects who almost had it all, and is now fighting to rebuild his life.

A brief retrospective in black and white sets the historical framework, with shots of Ritter and Eddy Merckx' successful record attempts in 1968 and 1972 respectively, and a few words about former record holders such as Fausto Coppi. From then on the film is in colour and with one minor exception (a training scene from a motor race track) it takes place in the relatively colourless setting of a cycle track. The film follows Ritter's three record attempts chronologically, which, accompanied by a Mexican marching band on the bandstand, all fail. There are several interview situations in hand-held reportage style in which Ritter is surrounded by a group of reporters and gives his account of the attempts, plus other shots from the inner circle of the cycle track. When Ritter is riding he is captured from a motorcycle moving round the track or we follow him (during the record attempts) in long pans all the way round the track. The only notable visual device is the slow motion used to accentuate Ritter's style in a couple of places, accompanied by a piano theme, with Leth's words on the soundtrack: "The functional mastery of power is an aesthetic experience". Throughout the film Leth talks soberly and informatively about cycling technique, the advantages of the thin air in Mexico City, Ritter's gradual acquisition of his average speed and rhythm, the progress of the record attempts, etc.

29932 ::: The Year of the Beaver (1985) ::: documentary ::: A documentary based on the 1976 strike at the Grunwick photographic processing plant in London. The strike of the workforce of mainly Asian women lasted two years with widespread support from the rank and file union membership including post office workers refusing to handle Grunwick mail. Using contemporary interviews with workers and media coverage the film examines this special phase of history that set the stage for Thatcherism and neo-liberalism and marked the end of the post-war consensus in the UK and elsewhere. The most noteworthy thing about this film is that so much of it is devoted to what workers actually did and what workers have to say. There are no interviews with union leaders, politicians or industrial relations experts. This makes a refreshing change from many documentaries. It takes the Grunwick strike as an example that clearly shows the interplay of the media, the police, the union leadership, and the political machinery to usher in a new phase of modern capitalism. The Grunwick story contains issues of: the use of machinery in the intensification of work; the lack of support and blatant sabotage of the struggle by the union leadership; the 'staged media event' and the messages conveyed and myths created by the media; the heavy policing used to break the picket lines; the issues of race, migration and gender in the workplace and in the workers' movement; the blacklisting of militant workers and the political changes leading to Thatcherism.

As it tests love between parents and son, the ties of blood seem much stronger than one can imagine. The different interpretation of love and life by different generations makes everything more complex, and leaves a question of the gap between the conservative cultural view, the law and righteousness of an alternative sexual orientation which stands among the human rights.

30023 ::: The Golden Space City of God (2009) ::: musical ::: The Golden Space City of God, combines elements from the Book of Revelation with science fiction imagery to describe events leading up to the end of the world. Though charged with the authority of religious fundamentals, Grayson's account does not intend to convey apocalyptic enlightenment; rather, it raises questions surrounding our models of interpretation. Within the context of contemporary economic and political environments, we begin to understand Grayson's presentation as an inquiry into the development of narrative, analyzing varying modes of communication and their role in establishing global systems. While the gestures in Grayson's Artpace installation are informed by his personal interpretation of communication systems, we can further understand the underlying message through the lens of Niels Bohr's concept of Complementarity. Bohr argued that an entity can be understood by differing models of interpretation, but these descriptions cannot coexist: the most famous example is perhaps light, which can be described in terms of waves or particles, but not both. The Golden Space City of God explores similar mechanisms in current political, cultural, and ideological spheres, where revolutionary theory is increasingly challenged by supernatural belief systems. Grayson's Artpace installation explores expressions associated with divine intervention and the lyrics reveal a multifarious account involving not only religious happenings, but also economic crises and the arrival of a giant golden spaceship.

As Glo pieces the whole woman together by coming to terms with her abusive past, she strives to save her son, Black Jesus, from the temptations of the streets. Piece Three--Matthew: "His Use Of The Color Red" ---leads us into the surreal world of a brilliant, yet socially reclusive misfit, Creole artist, Paul Thibodeaux. From the solitude of his window perch afar, he watches over a world from which he's distanced himself. With an almost clairvoyant intuition, Paul captures the essence of the neighborhood below on his beloved canvasses. He seems quite content in his "fishbowl-like" world, until his best friend & "free-spirited" manager, David Lekkas, attempts to "ready him for the world" by tempting him with the "fruit of woman." David introduces Paul to Natasha Toussaint, a beautifully exotic French photojournalist, setting into motion a scenario that flips his life upside down, leaving David to hope Paul lands on his feet. Piece Four--The Revelation: "$tone Cold $tatues" ---picks up on the tale of morality involving Glodean's son Chris (aka Black Jesus) and his best friend, Vic. Being born without a silver spoon in his mouth or a father by his side, the alluring street corner hustlers, "Stone Cold Statues", hold some appeal in his eye. Torn between the church, his family and the luster of the streets, Chris comes to a crossroad in his life when Coop, the leader of the Stone Cold Statues, takes him under his wing. Behind Coop's apparently trustworthy facade lays a lurking, twisted time bomb ready to explode, when Black Jesus takes a stand for his beliefs. None of the individuals we encounter will ever be the same, as their lives are irrevocably changed by moral decisions made or not made. Pieces Of A Dream spirals towards an ending that will leave audiences engrossed and forever touched.

How did the 2014 Israeli assault on Gaza harm Israel's image in the world? Are American Armed Forces' killings and torture more barbaric that that of groups like ISIS? Is the movie American Sniper's inherent racist viewpoint one reason for its phenomenal popularity? Valentino's Ghost lays bare the truths behind taboo subjects that are conspicuously avoided, or merely treated as sound bites by the mainstream American media: "Why do they hate us?" "Why do we hate them?" What were the events that led to the 9/11 attacks? What are the politics behind the U.S.-Israeli relationship? Why is there a robust debate about these subjects in Europe, the Arab World and in Israel itself, but not in the United States?

During the decade and a half between, he employed his acrobatic style and cat-like reflexes to backstop five Stanley Cup champions and two Canada Cup winners, cementing a reputation as the ultimate "money goalie". He also got himself demoted to the minors for calling the hometown fans jerks, announced his retirement at the age of 26 in an attempt to force a famously hard-nosed general manager to renegotiate a long-term contract, and was suspended for an entire NHL season for conduct deemed "dishonourable and against the welfare of the league" for cocaine use, only to return and redeem himself as one of the game's true greats.

In search for a more meaningful and balanced life for himself and his family, Carl decided to move back to Pittsburgh, the real life "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood." Shortly after, Fred Rogers died, and the city of Pittsburgh declared itself "financially distressed." With both himself and his hometown in a mid-life crisis, Kurlander set out on a Don Quixote quest to make a film to help the place where he grew up. Armed with a cranky cameraman, funded by his dermatologist, and often battling his wife, who longs to return to the sunny West Coast, Carl asks his neighbors from the famous (Franco Harris, Teresa Heinz Kerry) to the not-so-famous (his old gym teacher, the girl who inspired St. Elmo's Fire) how this once great industrial giant, which built America with its steel, conquered polio, and invented everything from aluminum to the Big Mac, can reinvent itself for a new age. Kurlander goes cheese shopping with Teresa Heinz Kerry where they discuss her late husband John Heinz's belief that sometimes your worst problems can become your best opportunities; tosses a football with legendary Steeler Franco Harris and his brilliant son, attorney and entrepreneur, Dok Harris, who moved back from Washington, D.C. to help his hometown; and goes fishing in Pittsburgh's once polluted rivers and, after eating a catfish, visits famed coroner Dr. Cyril Wecht to find out if he will live.

Ultimately, the film explores what it means to come home again and how individuals can make a difference in re-energizing the communities in which they grew up. We are reminded of this by Pittsburgh's late Mayor Bob O' Connor who articulates in the movie that, even in dark times, if we work together and believe in ourselves, it can still be a "beautiful day in the neighborhood."

Art James was probably the most under-rated game show host in television history and many fans of the genre believe his talents as a host should receive greater recognition. Two teams, each composed of a celebrity and a contestant, played. A giant electronic screen flashed a question, with the first team to answer correctly winning one point. The first team to five points played a pinball game on a giant 20-by-12 foot machine. Each team member manned one of the two flippers, and the object was to keep the ball in play for 60 points by hitting bumpers which were worth prizes and other noisemakers, but by avoiding "out" holes which stopped play on that ball. If after two balls, the teams earned 15,000 points (or 1,000 less than that upon subsequent visits), the team played Money Ball with cash awards given for hitting certain areas of the pinball machine.

That night, when a distraught Ellie is told John died in a climbing accident, she has no idea that he's been secretly spirited away by British intelligence for a spying mission in Germany. Fluent in German since birth in Germany, Mackay is the ideal choice to infiltrate the Reich Aviation Ministry, to learn of their suspected plans of bombing British Naval assets.The Germany he finds is awash with tension and foreboding for German Jews, who are being persecuted and marginalized as Germany ramps up for war. Some, known as mischlinge, are only partially Jewish, and are therefore still allowed to hold sensitive positions in the German government. These are the contacts who will provide him false papers to travel through Germany and infiltrate Reich Aviation Ministry headquarters in Berlin. But he is torn between completing his mission and his desire to help desperate full Jews - some of whom even commit suicide when their paths to the west are blocked and it's clear what dark fates await them. His mission very nearly compromised by his desire to help them, he finds his every step fraught with tension and fear of discovery. Finally infiltrating the Ministry, he's captured and brought to face General Erhard Milch, State Secretary of the Ministry, for questioning. The men instantly recognize each other. Mackay shot Milch down during a 1917 dogfight, and allowed the German aviator to make his way back to his lines. "The airman's code." But that won't help Mackay now. Milch goes hard on him, but Mackay refuses to talk and confronts Milch, who is a mischlinge. How can he persecute his own people? But Milch proclaims he is an honorary Aryan, not Jewish, and shows Mackay the certification, signed by Adolf Hitler himself. When Mackay still won't talk, Milch produces Ellie, who - tipped off that Mackay was not killed -- foolishly came to Germany to find him. If Mackay won't talk, Ellie will be killed - painfully. But Mackay - not Milch - holds the trump card. He demands to meet with Milch privately. With nothing to fear, Milch dismisses his men who take Ellie away. It is then that Mackay produces his document. It's a suicide note, written by Milch's Jewish mother before she ended her life, despairing for herself and her people. A shaken Milch tells Mackay he will allow him and Ellie to get away, much as Mackay did for Milch. But it won't matter. A restored Germany will exact its revenge on the Allies who humiliated the German people at the vindictive and ill-conceived Treaty of Versailles. It will be Deutschland Uber Alles.

Four short comic films on the theme of mental well being in different situations are shown. In "Insomnie" (Insomnia), a man is reading a horror novel in an effort to try and fall asleep. But being engrossed in the story and what happens with his slumbering wife beside him may make falling asleep impossible, which he may not want to do if he knew what was really happening. In "Le cinématographe" (The Movies), a crowded movie theater becomes an issue for its patrons with late arrivals, differing priorities of the people in the theater, and poor theater design. In "Tant qu'on a la santé" (As Long as You've Got Your Health), the dust, vibration and noise from the jackhammering and excavation work at a construction site and the general hustle and bustle of traffic and people rushing from place to place take their toll on the general populace. The physician's booming business treating those stressed because of it has an unintended consequence at a restaurant. And in "Nous n'irons plus aux bois" (Into the Woods No More), a picnicking couple, a farmer erecting a wire fence and a small game hunter are all going about their business in the same clearing next to the woods.

Later comes perspective through "Reflection," as we take stock of the voyage thus far. In adulthood, major traumas and difficulties create some serious "Conflict," but this is followed by a final "Discovery." Finally, it's time to walk "Into the Light" to experience the glorious beauty of a life well lived. Shot entirely in HD, this dual-layer DVD follows the 150 members and staff every step of the way. From the first step at auditions to the final step off in Lucas Oil Stadium, you'll have unprecedented access to one of the World's most beloved Drum Corps. This is our 2010 story.

Following decades of US-backed dictatorships, civil wars and devastating structural adjustment policies in the South, and corporate control, electoral corruption, and fraud in the North, representative politics in the Americas is in crisis. Citizens are now choosing to redefine democracy under their own terms: local, direct, and participatory. In 1989, the Brazilian Worker's Party altered the concept of local government when they installed participatory budgeting in Porto Alegre, allowing residents to participate directly in the allocation of city funds. Ten years later, Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez was swept into power with the promise of granting direct participation to the Venezuelan people; who have now formed tens of thousands of self-organized communal councils. In the Southern Cone, cooperative and recuperated factory numbers have grown, and across the Americas social movements and constitutional assemblies are taking authority away from the ruling elites and putting power into the hands of their members and citizens. Beyond Elections is a journey that takes us across the Americas to attempt to answer one of the most important questions of our time: What is Democracy?

31127 ::: ShowBusiness: The Road to Broadway (2007) ::: documentary ::: Follows the four high-profile productions that would eventually become Tony nominees for Best Musical of 2004: "Wicked," (currently the highest grossing musical of all time), the Rosie O'Donnell/Boy George musical brought from London, "Taboo," Tony Kushner's "Caroline, or Change," and a grown-up puppet show called "Avenue Q." Digging behind the scenes, from casting and out-of-town previews to the suspense-filled Tony Awards, "ShowBusiness" provides an engrossing look at the inner workings of Broadway musicals. Listening in to critics around the dinner table, interviews with the creators, footage of rehearsals and openings all combine to make this one of the most entertaining documentaries (and dramas) about the world of musical theater. The filmmakers follow the path of four new musicals that planned to open in the 2003/04 Broadway theater season: 'Avenue Q', 'Caroline, or Change', 'Taboo' and 'Wicked'. Each of the four has a different path to opening and a different pre-production anticipation. Regardless of the work going on behind the scenes, during pre-production 'Wicked' is considered the most commercial and likely for success, with a large scope appropriate to Broadway, an established composer ('Stephen Schwartz (I)' (qv)), established Broadway leads ('Kristin Chenoweth' (qv) and 'Idina Menzel' (qv)) and a wide appeal storyline (_The Wizard of Oz (1939)_ (qv) from the witches' viewpoints when they were younger). 'Taboo' has high profile if only because it had already played in the West End of London to great aplomb, has a high profile producer/backer ('Rosie O'Donnell' (qv)) and high profile subject matter and composer ('Boy George' (qv)) regardless of the fact that these names are untested on Broadway. Although having names with some Broadway pedigree behind them, the smaller 'Avenue Q' and 'Caroline, or Change' have the largest hurdles to overcome to reach success, 'Avenue Q''s being a target market that doesn't traditionally go to see Broadway shows, and 'Caroline, or Change''s being a perceived depressing storyline. Some of these preconceived notions can ultimately help or hinder the show, and sometimes expectations and outside baggage can overwhelm a show. Surprisingly three of the four were scheduled to open in the fall season, the spring generally the time when most shows open to be fresh in the minds of the Tony Award nominating committee and voters, winning the Tony for Best Musical being the ultimate goal. Ultimately, three of the four went on to take three of the four spots nominated for Best Musical in that year's Tony Awards, one being the ultimate, and perhaps, surprise winner.

31129 ::: Closer to Fall (2005) ::: short ::: The shortest yet film by White-Sobieski "Closer To Fall" lasts just about 5 minutes. The denser it is. Anticipation of something magical to happen is like being on the way out of the mother's womb - towards the sun, light and wind. Here all four seasons of life come together: young and innocent baby face of the girl illuminates childhood years; her fearless posture identifies the queenship of the maturity; the leaves - of course, a leitmotif - symbolize the experiences and encounters accumulated with years in our hearts and minds; the snow flakes - they are here, they carry a cold season that will come, but for now the milk drunk and spilled like life itself, is still her thirst of youth. The final moment of the film is spellbinding - looking yet away, she slowly turns her face to the camera; a single leaf traverses the screen like a farewell butterfly; camera freezes when two thin twigs intersect against her face. Like a crown of thorns.

Brando is asked to be complicit (to accept and manage that betrayal), which makes him very uncomfortable. When Michele finally leaves the house, Flora attempts suicide and never recovers from her psychosis. Brando then begins his most difficult period. In the past he was sent to his paternal grandmother who, despite her enormous affection for Brando, is no longer able to take care of him. Eventually, Brando is declared legally abandoned and is given to a family house (an orphanage). Michele accepts the court's decision. His reasons being that firstly, he does not want his son entrusted to his maternal grandparents in Catalonia, who Michele feels will not provide proper care to the boy.

The arrival in the family House puts Brando in a state of deep distress. He develops enuresis, which leads him to become the laughing stock of other children. Brando finds refuge in idolizing his heroes in Real Madrid and wrestling. One night he decides to escape and go to the hospital to visit his sick mother, but in the grip of her hallucinations and presumably still wrongly believing that Brando endorses the relationship between his father and Lisetta, she refers to him as a "bad boy" because she considers him an accomplice of the father. She also accuses him of theft in front of a nurse. The child hasn't heard from his grandmother, due to social workers declaring her as unreliable (or as implied, forgetting him), leading to the fact that she might have no way to contact him. After about a year of staying in the family home, Brando receives a proposal to go into foster care with the family of a man he knew whilst living in his former home. The couple had a son who passed away recently, and despite the affection that the couple and their relatives show Brando, the boy rejects them, fearing he will be abandoned again, and worried that the pair want him as a replacement for their deceased son. After a few months, Michele visits Brando, who expects good news, convinced that his father has come to take him home. Instead, Michele now seems totally uninterested in Brando, and is only excited at the arrival of a new child he is expecting with Lisetta. He reaffirms that he has no plans to take Brando back to his old home. Brando then agrees to be sent into foster care with the couple who had proposed to receive him, but not before he reiterates his desire that he not be considered a substitute for their dead son.

Ever since she got a sizable inheritance from an acquaintance, Ro has wanted to buy a house, her mother, Aida Teagarden, her real estate agent. Against Aida's advice, Ro finds what she believes is the perfect house in the country, five miles outside of Lawrenceton. The fact that it is the infamous Julius house does not dissuade her from buying it, the Julius family - parents T.C. and Hope, the latter who suffered from cancer, and their teenaged daughter Charity - disappearing without a trace four years ago. The Juliuses, only recently moved to Lawrenceton from Spokane, were apparently off to dinner with an unknown friend from Spokane he who drove a white car, the Juliuses never to be seen again. Hope's mother, Melba Totino, who now lives in Portland with her sister Alicia Minault, had all three legally declared dead - the reason she is able to sell the house - but still holds hope that they are still alive and will one day come home. Based on circumstantial evidence she finds in the house, Ro believes the Julius family's disappearance was not accidental, she along with her fellow real murders club colleagues John Queensland (Aida's boyfriend), Ro's best friend, newspaper reporter Sally Allison who has been assigned to do a follow-up story on the Juliuses, and ex-juvie Perry Dell, who decide to investigate, much to the chagrin of Homicide Detective Lynn Smith, who was one of the officers on the case four years ago and who has always resented Ro's interference in police matters.

Martin's worries could come to pass if the Juliuses were indeed murdered and the murderer believes Ro is getting too close to finding out the truth. Meanwhile, John may ultimately have to choose between the real murders club and Aida, who can't do anything about her objections about Ro's sleuthing, but may be able to with John.

31535 ::: This Divided State (2005) ::: documentary ::: The film carefully examines the divisive nature of politics in an overwhelmingly conservative mid-western community. In September 2004, the student body representatives of Utah Valley State College invited controversial filmmaker Michael Moore to speak on campus two weeks before the Presidential election. An unanticipated uproar from the students and community ensued. Moore protestors claimed university funds should not pay for Moore's visit, while those in support of Moore fought to defend free speech. A community once considered politically passive was stirred to action, and the conflict played out in the media and several public forums. Those opposed to Moore's visit, in an effort to have the invitation rescinded, resorted to death threats, petitions, law suits, and bribery. Moore supporters, living in the high concentrate of Mormon conservatism, struggled to be heard, to defend new ideas, and to keep plans for his visit on track. Steven Greenstreet, the film's director, tracks the personal stories of the key figures embroiled in this controversy, as well as opinions of the community at large. By delving into the personal motives and expectations of those involved, Greenstreet effectively presents the causes and effects of this unprecedented debate. The result of his efforts is a documentary full of candor, conflict, and humor that stands as a fascinating commentary on the current "divided state" of both the nation and the small town of "Family City, USA." This Divided State follows the controversy surrounding Utah Valley State College's invitation to liberal filmmaker Michael Moore to speak on campus. Though UVSC is located in one of the most conservative counties in the United States, vehement opposition to Moore's visit was much greater than anticipated. Equally surprising, however, was the overwhelming support for Moore, vocalized by students and community members previously considered "apathetic." Debate between Moore supporters and Moore protestors raged openly in the media and public forums. Death threats, hate mail, bribes, and lawsuits were all candidly captured on film.

Raëlism is a UFO religion that was founded in 1974 by Claude Vorilhon (b. 1946), now known as Raël. The Raëlian Movement teaches that life on Earth was scientifically created by a species of extraterrestrials, which they call the Elohim.

As opposed to the scientific definition of reproductive cloning which is simply the creation of a genetically identical living thing, Raëlians seek to both genetically clone individuals, rapidly accelerate growth of the clone to adulthood through a process like guided self-assembly of rapidly expanded cells or even nanotechnology and then transfer the mind and personality of the donor into the clone.

31593 ::: Rosen, Dornen und Träume (2003) ::: documentary ::: The "House of Veteran Stage Performers" in St. Petersburg has by now for more than one hundred years been the final domicile for stage performers who have devoted their entire lives to the theatre and who have here found a place where they are taken care of and are still held in esteem as artistes. The administration of the house pays a pianist to be present at daily rehearsals and in-house concerts, the bedrooms, with their memorabilia and work utensils, are more like studios than functional bedrooms. Currently there are 95 men and women living here: actors, opera singers, dancers, painters and directors from all parts of the erstwhile Soviet Union; here they create their own theatre world and continue to play out their roles Đ both in everyday life as well as on their own in-house stage. In competition with his artiste colleagues, each of them strives to stand once again in the glare of the limelight. They will give their last, great performance in the "House of Veteran Stage Performers". Death, as they know only too well, will only come when they cease to perform. For four years the cineastes Tatiana Yankina and Ralf Brings have been visiting the artistes' old peoples' home on the banks of the Neva, listening to its inhabitants and observing them with sympathy and an appropriate detachment as they go about their activities. Their film shows how the stage veterans defy, with pathos, vanity and a sense of humour, but also with a discipline of iron, the loss of their abilities and of their strength. Their anecdotes and memories reach back to the 20's: the day Lenin died, the terror of Stalin, new freedom under Khrushchev, all of which Boris Barinov, the Soviet Union's first cabaret performer, used to his advantage as material. It is only a few of them who actually became famous, but, as stage performers, they were all of them figures in public life and regarded themselves as representatives of a culture which the themselves have outlived. The scurrilous everyday occurrences in these stately surroundings produce an equilibrium between comedy and melancholy and lovingly document the utter madness of an ensemble of eccentrics and divas, whilst quieter, more poetic sequences allow us to perceive a dimension which is cogent to all of us; passion as a life-force!

31666 ::: Voice Teacher (2010) ::: documentary ::: Don Roberts is a construction worker, only he doesn't build buildings, he build's throats. Singers of all stripes regularly attend his studio in Oneonta, NY, but rarely in person. Don teaches over the telephone; a bizarre and controversial approach. Day after day, Don teaches voice to world-renowned cantors and up-and-coming opera singers. But to enter this particular studio, pupils must embrace the psyche behind the training. Don will go to great, sometimes outrageous lengths to enforce the doctrine that voice teaching is a sacred, existential journey and not just a random seesaw of back and forth singing. Voice Teacher is a psychological profile of a man who has dedicated most of his adult life to facilitating the human voice. We explore how his roots in the Synagogue drove him to become both a cantor and rabbi, where he combined artistic singing with religious purpose. Another crucial thread in this exploration is the component of Don's family-life and we are introduced to his wife and children. Ultimately, we are guided through the sometimes rough, yet exhilarating maze of Don Roberts by a diverse group of students; each of whom have gone through the proverbial cauldron. Don is obsessive, neurotic, at times harsh and always engaging. This feature-length documentary catapults you inside his hyperactive existence.
31667 ::: La révélation des pyramides (2010) ::: documentary ::: An apocryphal view on the pyramids, starting in awe at the amazing achievement of the Pharanoic architecture and sculpture, most specially at Gizeh, given Cheops's pyramid's size, weight, incredibly precise carving, four pairs of slightly shifted half sides, stunningly precisely measured shapes and symmetry. Then it questions and challenges conventional Egyptology beliefs, which it calls unproven or even impossible to verify, such as the absence of machines, a wharf duration of only 20 years or accidental equinox-orientation. Next it elaborates the theory that other major pyramid technology sites in Precolombian America, Easter Island and China can't coincidentally lie on two lines intersecting at Gizeh, even if not contemporaneous and without known contacts in their ages, and have several improbable things in common, like some of their cultures. Elaborate mathematical theories and measurements indicate the Egyptians must have known some astronomy, pi and the golden number, maybe even the meter, and such knowhow may have been secretly passed on. The makers conclude the most logical explanation is an older, wiped-out civilization, which may well have tried to warn us for the apocalyptic trouble that wiped them out, possibly starting with the present climatic crisis.

31672 ::: Sonata 1957 (2011) ::: documentary ::: During the summer of 2000, just after I graduated from college, I was invited to perform a solo recital at the Festival of the Hamptons on Long Island, NY. The festival's director, Lukas Foss (1922-2009), prefaced the invitation with the condition that I play a piano sonata by Donald Harris (born 1931), his friend and colleague. I did, and then met Harris immediately following the recital. Although I had finally met Harris in person, I had first discovered him through this music, his first professional composition finished in Paris in 1957. This Sonata is Harris' first independently composed work, completed after he left Nadia Boulanger's studio and before he began working with Max Deutsch. In Harris' own words, he loved every note; he caressed every note, and he felt liberated to compose freely in a style of his own choosing after an unremarkable start with Boulanger. Since that first performance, I have played the Sonata many times, and have even written analyses detailing the music's intricate structures. More importantly, I have grown to love the piece. This film was born out of the desire to make intimate and understandable a music whose aesthetic is complex and whose language is atonal. I wished for the film not only to explain what circumstances lead Harris to compose the Sonata, but also to expose an audience to the work's intellectual vigor and subtle emotional beauty. In effect, I hoped to make clear why this difficult and intricate music so captivated me. In these ways, the film is also an unfolding composition, one in which its uncommon protagonist, the Sonata itself, is assembled gradually from fragments into a complete, meaningful, and freshly interpreted performance.

31702 ::: Crossing Arizona (2006) ::: documentary ::: With Americans on all sides of the issue up in arms and Congress embroiled in a knock-down-drag-out policy battle over how to move forward, CROSSING ARIZONA tells the story of how we got to where we are today. Heightened security in California and Texas has pushed illegal border-crossers into the treacherous Arizona desert in unprecedented numbers - an estimated 4,500 a day. Most are Mexican men in search of work, but increasingly the border-crossers are women and children seeking to reunite with their husbands and fathers. This influx of migrants crossing through Arizona and the attendant rising death toll have elicited complicated feelings about human rights, culture, class, labor and national security. "Crossing Arizona" examines the crisis through the eyes of those directly affected by it. Frustrated ranchers go out day after day to repair cut fences and pick up the trash that endangers their livestock and livelihoods. Humanitarian groups place water stations in the desert in an attempt to save lives. Political activists rally against anti-migrant ballot initiatives and try to counter rampant fear mongering. Farmers who depend on the illegal work force face each day with the fear that they may lose their workers to a border patrol sweep. And now there are the Minutemen, an armed citizen patrol group taking border security into their own hands. As up-to-date as the nightly news, but far more in-depth, "Crossing Arizona" is an indispensable primer on what is already the most divisive issue of this election cycle.

A film on such a hot political (and geopolitical) subject first of all establishes emotional contact with the audience by depicting human drama, before coming up with political conclusions. They emerge naturally and powerfully as overwhelming evidence of Russian imperialist plot shows through the Russian media smokescreen as well as mistakes and naivety of the Georgians. The filmmakers return to their St. Petersburg studio loaded with unique footage and evidence which they analyze in the process of film-editing.

31732 ::: Motion Picture (1970) ::: short ::: Motion Picture is an experimental film with and not about the Danish tennis player Torben Ulrich, who is merely credited as "Example". The film may be viewed as a study of the nature of the medium and more specifically of the phenomena of framing, movement, and synchronicity of sound and picture. The material consists of Ulrich training strokes against a wall, volleys at the net and serves, but also of strange enactments in which Ulrich runs towards the camera, arms and legs twitching, dances a crazy racket dance or fakes slow motion as he sits down at a table and pours a cup of tea. These are all studies of movement. At the same time, the framing is absolute: Ulrich moves in and out of the picture without any attempt by the camera to follow him, thus constantly emphasising the role of framing. The complex nature of film is indicated by Jřrgen Leth's little appearances as a living clapperboard for synchronizing sound and image. Jřrgen Leth and Ole John ran the film through the camera several takes to create a couple of doubly-exposed scenes, and the result is the mysterious perception of several Torben Ulrichs serving on top of one another almost as if in a choreographed dance. One last narrative element introduced several places in the film is very sparse subtitles, such as "table chair tea". At the premiere at the Carlton cinema Motion picture as shown before Francois Truffaut's L'enfant Savage.

31819 ::: The Good, The Bad, The Boobs (????) ::: documentary ::: The United States has had issues on how they view females. Often bringing the culture from other countries. With the increase view that females are a lesser class. Even to the point of covering their females from head to toe, or the cultures that say a female cannot be raped. This causes our new generations to question what we view as okay and what is not okay. And what if the idea that females have no rights, come back? This questioning brings the topic back as to what rights do females have. In 2011, I had a guy passing me on the street reach out and grab my right boob. It took me a few seconds to realize what happened. But even with my bran having trouble registering the sexual assault, does not change that in 2011 it was a criminal offence. However, with the new religions and cultures coming to the United States, views on female body is changing. Some of these religions and cultures blame the female for a guy taking notice of a female's breast. Making sexual assault against females okay, because of the way they are dressed. Even when I was a child, I was made to feel guilty for having extremely large breast. Before I was half way done with elementary school I had adults, even family members, commenting on how my boobs where bigger than any adults they knew. When I was ten years old, comic books where the only place I could see ladies with boobs my size, while being strong and kicking ass, no one in the comics commenting on their boobs being too large. Yet there are several people that think these comic books sexualize females, because they give them oversized boobs. But does it really? Or is it that they are mad that they do not have big boobs like the ladies in the comic books? Even if it does or if a female does show cleavage or even goes topless, who has the right to say it is wrong? The female that does or the guys that sexualizes her. Many people will disagree with me, but that is okay. I am not making this documentary to tell people what to believe. Documentaries are meant to educate people. I will give the issues and what people think, by pulling together both panels of people and doing personal interviews on each of these topics.

FILM.UA not only collected the historical data, but also had a talk with the people who personally knew those that were at the helm. In this series we are presenting the trilogy Procurators of Ukraine about Nikolay Podgorny, Petr Shelest and Vladimir Shcherbitskiy. President of the Soviet Union Nikolay Podgorny is one of the most contradictory characters of a post-war soviet beau-monde. It was he who organized and headed the cabal against Khrushchev. It was he who nominated Leonid Brezhnev for the position of a General Secretary. For the first time in history Nikolay Podgorny was named the President of the Soviet Union. He was exiled to govern Ukraine, but he began to take a stand for its independence. For Nikolay Podgorny, power was not an end in itself, but just an instrument to achieve the planned - to stay in history. Director of Ukraine Petr Shelest was respectfully called Director of Ukraine. Being a strong economic manager, he governed the country during 10 years - from 1963 till 1972 and improved the Ukrainian economy to an unprecedented level leaving behind the other soviet republics. All the national features such as natural headpiece, tenacious mind, slyness, resourcefulness and practicality were in this person in concentrated form. Shelest was one of the participants of the anti-Khrushchev cabal, as well as the initiator of bringing the troops into Czechoslovakia. He lived 88 years and kept the word he once gave to himself - to survive all his enemies. Third Procurator Vladimir Shcherbitskiy governed Ukraine for eighteen years that was the longest period. Leonid Brezhnev trusted him, Mikhail Gorbachev was afraid of him; however, it was the voice of Vladimir Shcherbitskiy that turned out to be decisive when the new successor was selected. The three days before a death, Leonid Brezhnev gathered the immediate surround in his office. The meeting was held for just a couple of minutes. He brought all of them to an arm-chair and said: Remember, this is the place for Shcherbitskiy. But Shcherbitskiy refused to govern the USSR...

When Amir and Hassan are confronted by older local bully Assef, it is Hassan who always stands up to him. In the face of what Amir sees as this lack of outward love from Baba to him, Baba's friend, Rahim Khan, provides Amir with that fatherly type assurance.

Fast forward several years to the San Francisco Bay area, where Baba and Amir eventually settle following the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979. There, they have led a working class life. Amir, the aspiring writer, eventually marries Soraya, a Pashtun Afghani like himself, who has lived a working class life in the United States after being in the privileged class in Afghanistan. In 2000, after Baba has passed away, Amir receives a telephone call from Rahim Khan asking him to return to Afghanistan for a special mission concerning Hassan's orphaned son, Hassan and his wife having been murdered by the Taliban. When Amir learns of his own family's history in the story, Amir does what he can to honor the memory of his old friend Hassan.

31925 ::: The Name of This Film Is Dogme95 (2000) ::: documentary ::: The Name of this Film is Dogme95 is an irreverent documentary exploring the origins of Dogme95, the most influential movement in world cinema for a generation. The film tells how a 'brotherhood' of four Danish directors armed with a radical Manifesto, has inspired, outraged and provoked filmmakers and filmgoers the world over. The rules of Dogme95 take filmmaking back to its brass-tacks - stories must be set in the here and now; the films must be shot on location, with a handheld camera, using natural light, and direct sound; the rules forbid murders and weapons (staples of the much-loved action-movie genre); and, most amusingly, the director must not be credited (that holds also for the director of The Name of this Film is Dogme95...). Dogme95 was formally baptised in 1998 at the Cannes Film Festival, when Martin Scorsese's jury awarded a top prize to Thomas Vinterberg's Dogme#1: Festen, a disturbing story of sexual abuse in an upper-class family. Then Lars von Trier himself raised the stakes of controversy with his flabbergasting Dogme#2: The Idiots, about a group of ne'er-do-wells who challenge their society and themselves by impersonating spastics in public. By the time Sřren Kragh-Jacobsen's Dogme#3: Mifune triumphed at the 1999 Berlin Film Festival, Dogme95 had become the pride of Denmark and the envy of all European cinema. An investigative journey, The Name of this Film is Dogme95 is presented by film journalist and author Richard Kelly. His voyage begins with a tongue-in-cheek deconstruction of the conventions of a classic gangster-movie murder-scene. One-by one the Dogme95 rules are imposed until the documentary itself is pure Dogme (well, pure-ish!). Accompanied by a nimble digital video crew, Kelly travels to Copenhagen to interrogate the ringleaders of the Dogme95 circus about the cocktail of gossip and legend that has made Dogme95 such a public relations success-story.

32061 ::: Iskwaterpangk (2007) ::: documentary ::: Filmed in just one day, Squatterpunk follows an eight year old Slum King named Hapon, a cocky would-be gangster with a Travis Bickle haircut, and his rat-bag minions through one of the thousands of shanty towns that spring up between the cracks in the Manila pavements. The manic collage of stunning hand-held black and white images capture kids being kids as they frolic amidst the cardboard and corrugated walls of home-sweet-home and the surrounding debris, human and otherwise. Like watching infants at play at a car crash, it's a mesmerizing, almost seamless collision of social realism and visual poetry. It's a rush to the heart, too, fueled by the mostly improvised punk score by Khavn's outfit The Brockas. The relentless clang-bang drowns the need for dialog or most background noise, leaving a stark impression without comment and, more significantly, without judgment. A vivid and jarring collection of postcards of innocence at the brink of a short and possibly non-existent adolescence, of simple pleasures amidst appalling squalor, of human junk that society ignores in a country the rest of the world prefers to forget. Philippine underground filmmaker Khavn directed this purposefully rough and tumble portrait of life along the margins in Manila. Hapon is an eight year old boy living in a shantytown in the city's poorest neighborhood. Despite the grinding poverty around him, Hapon seems to enjoy his life as he and his friends run free through the tumble down shacks they call home and play in the garbage-strewn streets. Hapon and his pals seem largely unconcerned with their future (or even entirely aware if they'll ever have one) as they live for the moment in a place largely governed by misery. Featuring a pounding score by Philippine punk band the Broacks, Squatterpunk was screened in competition at the 2007 Rotterdam International Film Festival.

32100 ::: 19, The Tony Robinson Shooting: a Case of Deadly Bias (2016) ::: documentary ::: 19 seconds after Madison police officer Matt Kenny walked into the dark stairwell, he fatally shot Tony Robinson 7 times at close range. Tony was 19, unarmed, and black. 2 months later, after a lengthy investigation, Officer Kenny was cleared of wrong doing. But the events of that night in March, the media portrayals afterwards, and the questionable conclusions of the district attorney suggest that Tony's killing was the result of bias against black youth. Madison police arrest 1000 black youth per year-in a city where only 3200 black youth reside. Madison's population is 7% black, yet 75% of Madison arrests are black youth. Matt Kenny's statements do not match the physical evidence and a closer look at the DA's decision suggests he may have relied on police narratives more than actual evidence. 19-year-old Tony Robinson lost his life in those 19 seconds. Given MPD's documented racial inequities, bias against black youth, Officer Kenny's history of shoot-first-ask-quesitons-later, and the physical evidence of the case, was this really justifiable homicide?

Two years ago, however, Erik's life changed dramatically when his beloved brother died in a tragic car accident. Everyone was shocked and deeply saddened. What's more, the responsibility of continuing the family firm passed to the underprepared and sensitive Erik. The pressure is enormous, as it would be for anyone in his situation - yet there is one huge difference between Erik and other young people in a similar position: Erik is the Crown Prince of Denmark - and the top job that awaits him when his father, Valdemar, dies, is that of King of Denmark ... THE KING is the story of a young man's search for identity and meaning within the destiny that has befallen him. It is an examination, from within, of the nature, emotions and mechanics of monarchy, as experienced first-person by the people who live it. Crown Prince Erik's family is a troubled one. Marred by the death of the heir-apparent, the royal family suffers deeply disturbed relationships and harbours a devastating secret, which could potentially bring about the end of the 1,000-year-old Danish Monarchy should it ever see the light of day.

Although it was well-known after the war was over, an archivist attributed it's authorship to someone else. Elisabeth Schmitz was forgotten until her handwritten draft was discovered in a dusty church basement in her hometown.

Nevertheless he won't give up and his obsession will lead, or rather pull him into an endless loop, where he will finally be dissolved. This is the story of a man who has to achieve something he is not able to. He still tries until he realizes that he won't succeed and goes back, before he will try again. He is moving in a loop but not in a real circle, since the endless repetition of the apparently same action slightly modifies its course each time. This repeated trial and error turns the man's wish to reach his goal into an obsession, which will eventually make him forget his initial objective. He is loosing himself in this swirl and will finally be dissolved. All what's left is his obsession. This process gets accelerated in LOSING A HIGHWAY, since the failure is already included in each new attempt, which means that the man is at once constantly trying and constantly failing. He is in contradiction to his own words and action - a repeatedly double tragedy. LOSING A HIGHWAY is 52 min long. The viewer can sort of follow the man's way, go it himself, become weak and be dissolved; in order to see where he arrives at the very end, which is actually not a real end.

32511 ::: Pinkel (1982) ::: documentary ::: A humorous portrait of a young man with a working class background who turns into an anarchist punk. Over the years, however, he changes into a genuine bourgeois with conservative opinions. Anarchy is no more. The disintegrating welfare state has but little to offer, and these young wayward kids easily resort to right-wing radicalism and racist views. This seems to be a major trend in the cities of western Europe. Pinkel is a film about a former punker. He is twenty years old, has a job as a paper-hanger and shares an apartment with his girlfriend and their baby in a Rotterdam slum area. Pinkel (which means something like 'little one') used to be a politically conscious punker. When Pinkel was 14 years old he started working, but gradually he considered the work he was doing dull, and suddenly, as he says in the film, he quit working and became a punker. Pinkel and his friend Geert used to play in the punk rock band The Tändstickorshocks. Pinkel has turned his back on the punk movement, however, and has eventually chosen for a way of life he used to fight against and which he once abhorred and rebelled against. His views concerning women and foreign workers, to name just a few things, are now directly opposed to the ideals which were featured in the radical songs of The Tändstickor-shocks. Anarchy is no more. Nowadays, Pinkel leads a nice and quiet life. This doesn't imply that there aren't any problems. Sometimes Pinkel worries about things: how to make enough money to support his family, how to get out of the slum area, and even about life itself. These serious problems notwithstanding, Pinkel is quite confident about the future: he is sure that one day he will make it. This film is representative for a certain group of young people, which can be found in any big city of the west. Part of the film was shot in 1979, during the hey-day of the Dutch punk movement.

Even more astonishing was his ability to survive six strokes, which forced him to switch from drawing with his right hand to drawing with his left hand. The film documents the life and work of this legendary fantasy artist while exploring the universal theme of inspiration. Visual effects are used in a very unique way to bring his paintings to life.

Bodies and decor are filmed as echoes of one another, gracefully and languidly, as they continually threaten to to disappear into a narrative abyss, only to be saved in extremis by a volley of dialogues which are themselves nourished by the characters' own faint yet sustained curiosity for each other. IN THE WAKE OF A DEADAD: Following the death of his father, Andrew Kotting made a giant blow-up doll bearing his father's traits and filmed himself deploying it in places where the deceased could no longer set foot. Alone or with family or friends, the English filmmaker creates a frame, both literally and figuratively, and thus allows his deceased father to be reborn. More than simply the sum of its various installations, the film, set between documentary, happening and intimate short story, is an extremely moving and poetic reflection on the role and meaning of images in filiation and the grieving process.

32637 ::: Der Schlaf der Vernunft (1999) ::: short ::: The video shows my face. The camera does not move and there are no cuts. My eyes gaze into the camera until I faint. The Sleep of Reason does not document the blows staged in October of 1998. This was the realization of an image. As an art historian, I am interested in text production which allows space for bodies. Art history is a discipline which has traditionally bound the writer to disembodied and neutral consideration. It was this framework, with its repressive image of language, which allowed me to understand my body as a borderline between a history of art (my self) and art (my object). The use of my body is part of the text. I consider this strategy an opportunity to go beyond the borders of the discipline, the body and the intellect. As a video and performance artist, I work both with and at borders. By border I understand a dividing line drawn in our culture between things which are included and excluded, the clearly defined self and "the Other", the intellect and the body. I like borders as places of neither-nor or both-and, as places where seemingly unambiguous positions must be reconsidered. The Sleep of Reason asks questions. Its subjects include the act of seeing, which strives to be an act of understanding. And a gaze into nothingness which is also a look inside one's self. (Michaela Pöschl)

32769 ::: Very Nice, Very Nice (1961) ::: short ::: The current day-to-day life is much different than what it was thirty or forty years ago, but it is the life to which we as people are now accustomed and take for granted. But it also provides us with what we must deal, including joys, happiness, sorry and anxiety. These thoughts are interpreted through a series of snapshots and sounds - some, what we now take for granted as being givens, but some more disturbing - combined in such a way to make one ponder if life is indeed better than it was thirty years ago. In experimental filmmaker 'Arthur Lipsett' (qv)'s first film, an avant-garde story--sometimes eccentric, sometimes satirical--unfolds, through an unconventional use of concise narrative, various hints of documentary, a conceptual collage of sounds and images, and finally, a rapid-fire montage. In the end, by blending all these elements with stock footage, a rich collection of personal photographs and visible diametrical contradictions, the director attempts a vivid portrayal of urban estrangement, in the times of social erosion, cultural diversity, modern-time anxieties, cut-throat commercialism, and above all, rampant materialism.

32846 ::: Being the One: Document of a Delusion (2009) ::: documentary ::: 'Being the One' is an exploration both of the world we live in and of a single psyche. Neither standard narrative fiction nor documentary but a curious synthesis of the two, it tells the story of a man who believes he is "the One," the world savior/destroyer. Having apprenticed under a shaman in Guatemala, and then seen the movie The Matrix, he is convinced the movie was made to send a message to him that he is The One. He falls into delusion and grandiosity, including the belief that he is responsible for the collapse of the world trade center, and that his task is to bring about the end of consensus reality. He begins to make a documentary called The God Game: An Investigation into the Illusory Nature of Reality, for which he intends to recruit 24 individuals and subject them to intensive personal questioning over the course of a single day, during which they will enact their imaginary deaths. During the course of making the film, he is persuaded by his cameraman to enter into the action of the films as 'the One,' offering the 'red pill' (a powerful natural hallucinogen called salvia divinorum). The project collapses before they can get a finished movie, and 'Being the One' is the record of that process. It presents the character's past self and his beliefs, more or less as they manifested, framed by more sober perspectives from the present (commentary from himself and those involved). The film is about two things: reality and delusion, where the one leaves off and the other begins. It is a post-modernist satire on the nature of perception, sorcery, mind control, madness, apocalypse, The Matrix mythos, and shamanic self-empowerment. It blurs the lines between fact and fantasy, truth and fiction, reality and dream, and the until now more or less separate categories of documentary and dramatic film.

32914 ::: The Lone Wolf Returns (1935) ::: mystery ::: Once a jewel thief always a jewel thief? Yes and no. Yes if you consider the fact that Michael Lanyard also known as the Lone Wolf once retired from the "trade" but relapses back into his old habits when he is tempted by the emerald pendant of beautiful socialite Marcia Stewart. The trouble (?) is that he falls for the belle and he soon gets more interested in getting the girl than the jewels that adorn her.

But is this an accurate portrayal of this relatively calm omnivore with very pronounced social behavior? Being extremely difficult to film in its natural habitat, the European badger has been the subject of very few documentaries. This complete study permits the presentation of actual facts and not the falsities that have been associated with the badger, such as it being a frightening creature. At the beginning of spring new generations of badger's are born. They have lived in the burrow for two months before coming out for the first time this evening. It is through this family unit and the passing season's with which we will be able to better understand this Mustelidae with its very peculiar habits. Where do they live? What do they eat? How many litters do they have per year? How do they build multi-level fortress they hibernate? A discussion will take place with regards to the American badger, which is also a member of the Mustelidae family. However, the American badger has very different habits and behavior patterns than that of the European badger. The American badger behaves in a very reclusive manner whereas the European badger is the only Mustelidae that is found to live in a family group or clan.

The children enter into an alien world, bereft of color and warmth, but populated with kind strangers. Their new toys are invented out of stainless steel, and new friendships are formed in the crucible of the cancer ward. Inured to the routine of daily medication and meals that alternate between porridge and cabbage soup, the children dream of life beyond the clinic's thick cement walls while their parents bear the burden of uncertainty about their children's fate. The filmmaker spent eight months at this very hospital while his own daughter battled leukemia. After her successful recovery he returned to the ward, with his camera in tow, to make a record of the young patients and their families who had become his friends. Arunas returns to the ward to create a film full of life and magic moments in the face of non-existence. The children's intimate relationship with Matelis is evident in their ease with his camera.

Ultimately, this is a story about the force of life which is more powerful than the specter of death. A poetic, unsentimental film about the resilience of the human spirit.

Bands and musicians played their music underground. Beatles LP's were traded illegally at high prices in port-side black markets. Being in a rock band was actually a dangerous thing. Times changed, and so did Fidel Castro. The Cuban President had a change of heart regarding the Beatles and John Lennon in particular. In the 90's, he erected a statue of Lennon in a Havana park, which he renamed after the murdered singer. Since then, a slow trickle of foreign rock bands has played concerts in Havana. Artists like the Manic Street Preachers and Audioslave, among others, have made the journey. Big rock shows are one thing. But what no one had ever done was tour the country, especially not a working class, do-it-yourself rock band. That is, until December 2007, when 7and7is, an indie rock band from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada became the first foreign rock band to tour Cuba. They played 7 shows in 5 cities and made a footnote in Rock and Roll history. 7and7is played a wide range of shows, from a John Lennon memorial concert for thousands of people in Cienfuegos, to a huge festival stage for 10 people in Havana. They saw Cuban countryside, art shows, museums and metal clubs. Una Vez Por La Vida takes you on the first diy rock tour through this socialist country, an experience few have ever even considered.

32959 ::: House of Numbers: Anatomy of an Epidemic (2009) ::: documentary ::: What is HIV? What is AIDS? What is being done to cure it? These questions sent Canadian filmmaker Brent Leung on a worldwide journey, from the highest echelons of the medical research establishment to the slums of South Africa, where death and disease are the order of the day. In this up-to-the-minute documentary, he observes that although AIDS has been front-page news for over 28 years, it is barely understood. Despite the great effort, time, and money spent, no cure is in sight. Born in 1980 (on the cusp of the epidemic), Leung reveals a research establishment in disarray, and health policy gone tragically off course. Gaining access to a remarkable array of the most prominent and influential figures in the field -- among them the co-discoverers of HIV, presidential advisors, Nobel laureates, and the Executive Director of UNAIDS, as well as survivors and activists -- his restrained approach yields surprising revelations and stunning contradictions. The HIV/AIDS story is being rewritten, and this is the first film to present the uncensored POVs of virtually all the major players -- in their own settings, in their own words. It rocks the foundation upon which all conventional wisdom regarding HIV/AIDS is based. If, as South African health advocate Pephsile Maseko remarks, "this is the beginning of a war...a war to reclaim our health," then House of Numbers could well be the opening salvo in the battle to bring sanity and clarity to an epidemic clearly gone awry.

When the original members of the band found Dan Orange, they knew they found success...and then, with a smile and a wink, he drives his sport's car off a cliff and explodes like a douchebag. Damn. So, what's a band on the precipice of fame supposed to do? The idea comes from their new-ish manager, Samantha Epsten: find a Dan Orange lookalike, train him to act like their lead singer and go on as if nothing ever happened. After all, isn't that what the Beatles did with Paul? The three remaining band members -- Charlotte Sauvage, the slightly insane, Woodstock-loving bassist, Billy Calendar, all-in, make-it-or-break-it drummer and Dashiell Lowman, the overly-artistic guitarist and co-songwriter - aren't convinced.

Finally, Pepper Leeds -- a reporter for Rock Attik magazine and Dan's periodic lover -- suspects something is amiss and won't stop until she figures out what that something is. But with the plans underway, there's very little that Orange and the Dead Ends can do but survive and do what they do best: rock and roll with the punches.

In 1997, I followed on camera the fortunes of a group of men who had chosen to wok - either artistically or commercially - with their bodies. This footage later become part of my 1998 documentary, SEX/LIFE IN L.A.. I'm still in touch with some of the men in that film, these include: lone battler Kevin Kramer, mature shooting star Cole Tucker, American boy-next-door Matt Bradshaw and friends of the occasional model John Garwood, who died of an overdose in 1998. Some of these men have successful careers behind them, others have left the sex industry altogether. Driven by a sense of adventure or by their narcissism, young men today are still keen to put their own stamp on porn cinema.

Gay life - like the entire industry - has become something of a profession and is now thoroughly commercialized.

Edward the prince, was in the palace grounds near the gate, and, hearing the outcries, made inquiry as to the cause. A courtier brought the answer. Edward had a gentle heart. There was misery in the cries of the lad outside. He ordered him brought within to console him. The prince's word was law. The pauper boy was brought before him. Never having conversed with a boy of the streets before, Edward retired with him to a secluded room and there both noticed the resemblance between them through an accidental joint glance in a mirror. The prince suggested the boyish prank that they change clothes tor the moment. No sooner said than done. Tom pranced about in the prince's royal raiment and truly royal he looked, while the prince masqueraded as the pauper boy and looked Tom Canty to the life. At this moment Tom spoke of the unnecessary brutality of the guard. In a flash, forgetting his attire, the prince was off to chastise the guard. Alone and with one whom he thought the pauper boy, the guard was not gentle. He pitched the prince in beggar's rags into the street. Wildly the prince proclaimed himself, but a jeering crowd drove him away. Before he could return he encountered the elder Canty and was hauled off, despite his protests, to their hovel.

From these he was rescued by a poor knight, Miles Herndon, and the two became fast friends, though the knight laughed at the supposed beggar's pretensions to royalty. Meanwhile Tom had been having many strange adventures at the palace, where he was supposed to be the prince. His singular conduct caused an impression among the couriers that he was demented. King Henry VIII, Edward's father, died at this juncture, and here truly was a fateful circumstance; for the pauper hoy was hailed king of England, and, though in agony of mind over it, was about to be crowned. The ceremony was in actual occurrence in Westminster Abbey when the prince succeeded in gaining admittance. Loudly he proclaimed himself and would have been struck down by the soldiery as a traitor had it not been for Tom himself. He was the first to acknowledge his rightful king, and it was through his aid that Edward was enabled to step to the throne and receive the crown that in a few moments more would have been placed on the pauper boy's head.

33217 ::: Parabol (1999) ::: short ::: The senses do not receive information from the body's own organs. All reflections dealing with the function of the senses return to this empty space: How to see seeing, how to hear hearing, etc.? In 1668, Edme Mariotte attempted to find out and discovered the "blind spot" in the center of the field of vision, which is the spot at which the central optic nerve is connected to the eye. The thing which allows the eye to see (ultimately the brain) is itself blind. The centerpiece of Parabola, literally at the exact center of the image, are parabolic antennas, commonly termed satellite dishes. They bring, as it is often said, the world into your living room, or at least that part of the world which can be made visible (which requires more than eyes or cameras). These antennas themselves usually remain "invisible", edited out of everyday perceptions as constantly recurring elements. On the whole, they would be relatively uninteresting if they did not give structure to the image as formal elements. The viewer can then see what they are concealing, and they provide a perspective which determines the image's dimensions and the focal length (the parabolic mirrors appear in the center of the frame and are always the same size). They add an unreal quality to the reproduction of reality (Watzal's video consists primarily of slow superimpositions of various photographs) and take them back to an image, a performance of planes, shapes and colors. Interesting. (Vrääth Öhner)

33322 ::: Jashan-e-Azadi (2007) ::: documentary ::: It's 15th August, India's Independence day, and the Indian flag ritually goes up at Lal Chowk in the heart of Srinagar, Kashmir. The normally bustling square is eerily empty - a handful of soldiers on parade, some more guarding them, and except for the attendant media crews, no Kashmiris. For more than a decade, such sullen acts of protest have marked 15th August in Kashmir, and this is the point from where Jashn-e-Azadi begins to explore the many meanings of Freedom-of Azadi-in Kashmir. In India, the real contours of the conflict in Kashmir are invariably buried under the facile depiction of an innocent population, trapped between the Terrorist's Gun and the Army's Boot. But after 18 years of a bloody armed struggle, after 60,000 civilians dead (and almost 7,000 enforced disappearances), what really is contained in the sentiment for Azadi-for freedom? Amidst the everyday violence and ever-present fear in Kashmir, there are no easy answers to such questions. Where truth has been an early victim, all language -speech, poetry, even cinema-becomes inadequate to describe what we know and feel here. So we reshape our curiosity, and point ourselves at what we can see, what we are allowed to see. The film then combines several forms and modes of expression to evoke the past as well as unravel the present. We are witness to an ageing father in the Martyr's Graveyard; we are with a group of men as they survey the dead in the mountain villages of Bandipora; we sit quietly in the Out Patients Ward of the Govt Psychiatric Hospital in Srinagar. But we look elsewhere too, in the satirical farce of Bhand folk performers as they play in a village square; in the tense undercurrents of an Army Sadhbhavna (Goodwill) camp in north Kashmir; and in the images conjured up by the work of contemporary Kashmiri poets. Shot and edited between August 2004-2006 Jashn-e-Azadi engages us with the idea of Azadi in Kashmir. In 2007, as India celebrates it's 60th anniversary of Independence, this is also a conversation about Freedom in India.

33466 ::: A rischio d'amore (1994) ::: drama ::: Lucca, Tuscany. A young woman is driving at high speed through the streets of the city. On a sharp bend she starts to overtake - she hesitates for a split-second - but it's too late. Her tiny car crashes straight into a lorry coming in the opposite direction. Shortly afterwards Chiara, an attractive woman in the prime of life, is watching a film report of the dramatic accident on television when she is suddenly gripped by the anxiety that the accident victim could actually be her daughter. After several phone calls and tortuously long hours of waiting Chiara finally realises that her worst fears have come true. She goes cold with horror when she sees her daughter Gianna lying there in the hospital: the young woman is very seriously injured and in a coma. From this moment on, Chiara's entire life is shattered. Her boyfriend Giulio, a famous lawyer, tries to reassure her without success. Chiara becomes aware for the first time how estranged she has become from her own daughter ever since Gianna moved out of the house several years previously. Racked by guilt, Chiara now decides to discover more about her daughter's life. It comes as a huge shock to Chiara when she hears from a close friend of Gianna's that her daughter had married without her knowledge, and that after the wedding to Alec, a young sensitive musician, she realised that she would never be able to have any children. Chiara also finds out that Gianna, driven by her desire to have children, had made use of the most recent medical advances in this sector - by applying for artificially insemination. After that she had wanted to ask her mother - her nearest relative - to bear her child to the full term. Chiara is utterly horrified! But once she's recovered from her initial shock she starts considering how she can fulfil her daughter's last request. She asks Giulio for advice, but he doesn't feel up to giving her an opinion either. In his helplessness he even proposes marriage to Chiara without realising the bad timimg. Chiara spends the weeks that follow at her daughter's bedside. The doctors are hoping that her closeness and warmth will help Gianna recover. At the hospital Chiara also gets to meet Gianna's husband, Alec. But like Giulio, the young man is not in a position to make Chiara's decision about the wished-for child any easier. As a result of her daughter's unusual request, Chiara is torn this way and that between feelings of sympathy, responsibility and helplessness. Eventually she visits Gianna's gynaecologist, Professor Guidi, who was responsible for the artificial insemination and has preserved the ovum via a special method. Quite candidly he outlines the risks to Chiara of surrogate motherhood at her age. Nevertheless, after a lot of consideration, Chiara's feelings finally win out. For her daughter's sake Chiara makes the decision to brave the dangers and to bear her daughter's child to the full term. After the operation, Chiara goes to see her daughter again. At Gianna's bedside she holds her daughter's limp hand in a tender effort to summon her back to life. This desperate cry for help actually seems to reach her unconscious daughter. In astonishment, Chiara sees Gianna give a weak yet unmistakeable sign of life... Gianna has awoken from her coma, and is now on the road to recovery. When she is finally released from hospital, still rather unsteady on her legs, Chiara is beside herself with joy. Gianna accepts her suggestion that she should stay at her house with Alec for the time being. So far mother and daughter have not exchanged a word about Chiara's pregnancy. It is only when Chiara learns from Professor Guidi a short while later that she is definitely pregnant that she feels prepared to reveal the truth to her daughter. Gianna, deeply moved, bursts into tears. However, the new life Chiara is carrying within her soon results in conflict. Giulio sees the strange child as a threat to his male pride. Chiara is forced to look on helplessly as the gulf between them starts to grow ever wider. Chiara thus turns now for comfort to Gianna, who is following the course of her mother's pregnancy closely. But despite Gianna's efforts it soon becomes obvious that she's not up to the role. Tempers finally fray when Alec puts his hand on his mother-in-law's belly one evening to feel his child moving. Gianna reacts to this intimate gesture with a sudden outburst of jealousy. She's no longer the loving daughter, but a mistrustful and deeply injured young woman, and she accuses her mother of making too much of a fuss about her pregnancy and even of cheating her out of her child. Gianna's desire for children underwent an involuntary change after her near-death experience. Gianna admits to her husband that having a baby is not as important to her now. She finally decides to move out of Chiara's house, although she knows how hard a blow this will be for her mother. Meanwhile even Chiara is starting to have doubts about whether deciding to have her daughter's baby was the right thing after all. She's all on her own now, abandoned by everyone, though she does respect Gianna's desire for isolation. When Chiara suddenly suffers agonising cramps one evening, in her loneliness she rings Gianna, who follows her to the hospital. Once there, mother and daughter are both horrified to learn that Chiara had almost lost the child. This shock reawakens the memory in Chiara of her own pregnancy years beforehand, when after her boyfriend's sudden departure she had to make the decision to have the baby all by herself. This gives Chiara renewed courage. She realises just how deeply indebted she is to her daughter. In Chiara's house the two women clear matters up in a candid conversation, talking about Gianna's father for the first time, who was missed by his child her whole life long. Mother and daughter smile at one another. They've come a long way, and have had to go through a great deal in order to prove their affection for one another. But both of them now feel that together they are more than strong enough to chase away the shadows of the past. Together, they look forward to the birth of their common child.

That's why I don't have any picture of me with my friends. This scared me and this fear made me film these events immediately during the time that was left without worrying about how the film will turn out. When I was editing the film, I felt like I was putting the jigsaw pieces of memory together. When I finished it, I saw a curse in our fate. It was a curse that made us laugh in order to forget our pain of love, journey and memories... Thunska

33745 ::: Prison's Prayer (2016) ::: documentary ::: The film prison's prayer speaks about people, faith and repentance. My fascination, and the reason I am making such a film, is with the fact that people in such a closed environment, in a system limited by strict rules, did something that they would probably never have received the opportunity to do if they were free. They renovated and rebuilt the prison church, completely on their own, and they remained devoted to this project for years, until they had finished it. The significance of this film is also demonstrated in the fact that there is no recorded instance of a similar case anywhere else in the world. It is as yet unknown for inmates anywhere else to have built a church and decorated it with frescoes they painted themselves. But these Serbian prisoners did so with dedication from 2007, when a cross was set on the church, until 2014, when all works were officially completed.The reaction of the Patriarch is also interesting and we managed to capture it on film; that moment of pleasant surprise when he sees before him a new, beautiful church.- On their faces can be seen a burden that somehow disappears when they enter the church. We can see that relief, and that was what they needed, that longing for some redemption.

She lied about her age so she could work and earns half of what an adult does, about 25 U.S. cents a day. Jenny's family lives in a one room cinder block hut. It is brand new, having been rebuilt twice in the last two years, after a typhoon and volcano destroyed it two separate times. Because of these disasters, her parents have neither a job, nor the means to leave to go somewhere else to find one. Rolando hasn't seen his mother in three years. She left the family to find work in Manila so they would have enough to eat. They can barely afford food, much less the money for her to come home to visit. Each of them is recruited by The Sister of Mary School and like all the students there, they attend free. The children are picked by by the nuns who run the school, as much based on their level of poverty as for their intelligence. The school is unremarkable by most standards. The children learn math and history, and skills like sewing and construction so they can find a job after graduating. What is remarkable about this school is what else it teaches. For most of these children, the Sisters of Mary School is the first place in their lives where they will eat three meals a day, have their own bed, celebrate a birthday and receive medical care of any sort. The Sisters of Mary travel all over the Philippines to recruit children from remote, inaccessible areas as well as the city slums and different dump-sites to provide them with food, medical care and an education, all for free. Their only requirements are that the child has finished sixth grade and be from true abject poverty. They recruit children who are hopeless, miserable, abandoned and neglected and offer love, happiness and hope. To reach Remerose's house, a nun from the Sisters of Mary must travel for two days, including a eight hour walk up a mountain that is controlled by guerillas. There, she offers Remerose the opportunity to come to school and gain the possibility of a future away from debt and corrupt plantation owners. However, in taking this opportunity, she must leave her family with only the small chance to see them once a year. Remerose chooses to go with the nun. After spending her whole life in a small mountain village with no paved roads, electricity or running water she travels hundreds of miles to begin a new life. Past the English lessons and math classes that would challenge any 13-year-old, she also has to master how to use a shower, indoor toilet, and eating utensils. Like all the children in the school, she has gone from a life of never being alone, sleeping every night with all 7 of her siblings to a school where she knows no one. For Jenny, her fear was the world outside the Sisters of Mary. After living and studying there for four years she could not imagine any other life. For Jenny, the final test at the Sisters of Mary was leaving. With the skills learned at the school and with the help of the nuns, could she find a job, leave the sheltered world of the school and re-enter the outside world she fled from years ago? It had always been Jenny's dream to become a nurse. However, to be a nurse she needs to go to school for many years more, while her family needs her help now. So when she is offered a job as a computer programmer, Jenny leaves her dreams behind and chooses to do whatever it takes to help her family escape poverty. In order to achieve his dreams, Rolando works hard in class and joins every extra curricular competition he can, for only the brightest students have a chance to get a scholarship to go to college. Rolando learns to play chess so he can compete against other schools at the Milo Little Olympics, but after losing too many games, he does not even advance to the second round. Failing as a chess competitor, Rolando enters the regional science competition where he represents the Sisters of Mary against 63 other schools and after a full day of competition wins first place. However, achieving his goal of being the best at something does not fulfill him the way he thought it would. Weeks later, on his way home to visit his family for the first time in two years, he realizes that what he had been looking for since he came to the Sister of Mary was not a medal for good grades or winning a science competition. Instead, he was searching for the family that poverty had stolen from him, the mother, who left his family when he was young, fleeing a abusive husband and looking for a job to help provide for Rolando and his siblings. As we follow each of these children on their journeys, their future takes shape, not through sharing the math or reading lessons they've learned at the school, but through sharing the hope the Sisters of Mary gave them. The one characteristic that a life of poverty had never afforded them-hope.
33787 ::: "De zomer van 1823 - In het voetspoor van Jacob van Lennep" (2001) ::: documentary ::: 9-episode travelogue through The Netherlands of 1823, following the itinerary and words as jotted down in the diary of young Dutch author Jacob van Lennep, who hiked -by foot and coach- during three months in the rainy summer of 1823, through the young Kingdom of the Netherlands, eight years after its becoming independent. Author Geert Mak, as narrator, joined me during the sunny summer of 2000 on a trip retracing the footsteps of Van Lennep, with the amazing result that most of the 19th century's locations could be found intact, following the original footpaths and coach-routes. Thus this mini-series turned out to be a living testimony of cultural-history of The Netherlands of 200 years ago.

The Hadza's foraging lifestyle is much like that of our earliest ancestors, and many consider the group to be the oldest population in East Africa. Their way of life, which characterizes most of human existence, is currently under attack -- and a vital tie to our evolutionary roots may be lost forever. In addition to the remarkable Hadza people, the film also features Jane Goodall, Richard Wrangham, Wangari Maathai and a host of anthropologists, geneticists and other experts. The film presents intriguing theories about the evolution and origin of Homo Sapiens, while also examining the delicate balance of human aggression and cooperation that is at our core.
33790 ::: Beyond the Border (1925) ::: western ::: When Bob Smith brings in the outlaw Bob Moore he learns his real name is also Bob Smith.

33791 ::: To Fall Off The Horse (2017) ::: documentary ::: To Fall off the Horse follows the turbulent experience of Nigerian-British actor Oris Erhuero during the production of an independent film being shot in Ghana. The film, titled 'The Cursed Ones', addresses the problem of false accusations of child witchcraft in West Africa. These accusations are a disturbing reality for much of the region, including the village that the film was shot in. The serious nature of this epidemic provides the backdrop for the production itself, and thus also for the documentary. Known for his role in the popular 90s television series Adventures of Sinbad, Oris is enthusiastic and outspoken. He comes across as an individual seeking purpose and recognition amongst the highs and lows of a claustrophobic, low budget film production. Nurtured by the social pressures and expectations of the entertainment industry, his overt self-confidence and behaviour lend the documentary an uncomfortable and, at times comical, edge. Oris rapidly succumbs to an overwhelming sense of frustration, beneath which his self esteem and machoism struggle to survive. It is through this struggle that the parallels between Oris' disillusioned character in the film and the reality of the actor's persona begin to emerge. With subtle imagery and implicative dialogue, To Fall Off The Horse explores Oris' unique personality whilst demonstrating how the processes behind acting can be a catalyst to revelation.
33792 ::: Camp Apparition (2018) ::: horror ::: On the 25th year anniversary of the brutal, senseless and unsolved murders at 'Camp Tradition' - Detective Michael Carter returns to investigate once again.

33793 ::: Witchouse II: Blood Coven (2000) ::: horror ::: When an old house in a small town is razed to make way for a shopping mall, the crew unearths four unmarked graves. A professor from a nearby university is asked to find out who the bodies are, but when she and her students arrive in town and begin to ask questions, they discover that no one wants to talk to them or help them in any way. It's a parody, partially, of the style of showing raw video material; which is edited into the body of the regular movie style; that makes it partially a comedy, interviewing local "real" people and it's done rather well. The main horror movie plot is also done well involving a "no nonsense sheriff", a "creepy town historian" and what analyzing those bodies causes, leading to our characters disappearing one by one but done much better than "one of those "lame slasher movies" as one of the characters points out, where she "would be so dead by now" instead of as in this movie with more plot structure, development and continuity.

These people are both simple and sensitive, they have their own pleasures (e.g. Leli is a collector of cheap, but inutile things) and the greatest delight of all of them is a hunting. Crude poetics of amateur hunting is screened by dreamy pictures of this area. Menzel mixes sentimental lyricism and rough (but not vulgar!) humor and the outcome is the never-ending landscape of continuous life in the proximate nearness of nature. The performances of actors are brilliant. Both Rudolf Hrusinsky as a Franz and Jaromír Hanzlik as a Leli have nonrecurring charm bottomed on a pain and inebriation. Only the music is not perfect: Jiri Sust usually assembled his film music from his older works and in this movie there is many quotations.

33827 ::: Carnal Knowledge (1971) ::: drama ::: The concurrent sexual lives of best friends Jonathan and Sandy are presented, those lives which are affected by the sexual mores of the time and their own temperament, especially in relation to the respective women who end up in their lives. Their story begins in the late 1940s when they are roommates attending Amherst College together. Both virgins, they discuss the type of woman they would each like to end up with. Sandy, the more sensitive of the two, meets Susan at a mixer, she who he believes is going to be the one to who he will lose his virginity. Sandy goes through the process methodically, taking into account what he thinks Susan wants, but without much true passion or romance. Jonathan, the more sexually aggressive of the two, ends up losing his virginity first to "Myrtle", who ends up being a steady but hidden girlfriend. Based on what each knows of the other's relationship, both Jonathan and Sandy strive for a little more of what the other has. These relationships also set the tone for all the relationships they will have in the future. Through their lives, they always seem not totally satisfied with their relationship at the time, still pining for what the other has. This view may change as they and their friendship hits middle age, when Sandy is with a domineering woman named Cindy, while Jonathan is with model/actress Bobbie, whose life goes spiraling downward because of her relationship to Jonathan and despite her beauty which on the surface offered so much opportunity for her. Jonathan's sexual trajectory, directed through these experiences, ends up in a manner he probably did not foresee happening. Jonathan and Sandy are roommates in the university. Each one of them has a different behavior and experience with women: Jonathan is cynical, malicious, and selfish. He does not respect anybody (even his best friend is not respected) and just want to have sex. Women are objects for him. Sandy is almost the opposite of Jonathan and has a different approach with women: he is shy, sensitive and respectful; he does not have much experience with women. Sandy dates Susan but Jonathan gives a pass on her in the beginning of a triangle of love. A few years later, Susan is married with Sandy, and Jonathan and Sandy are successful in their professions and boring with their mates. Now, Jonathan has a relationship with the sexy Bobbie. As years goes by, the two friends have affairs with different women but no steady relationship. The film traces the sexual and emotional confusion of two men from their Amherst College days in the fifties through the Kennedy sixties, up to the Vietnam era. Jonathan, a successful tax attorney and Sandy, a physician, personify two extremes of self-delusion and self-aggrandizement: Jonathan makes the mistake of thinking sex is love, and embarks on a lifetime of sexual conquest; Sandy dedicates himself to the pursuit of an idealized woman and the dreamy spiritual completeness to be found therein. In Bobbie Jonathan finds a partner whose masochism compliments his selfishness and emotional ambivalence. Jonathan does not want her to hold a job, but neither does he like the fact that she spends all day in bed sleeping, or watching TV. Sandy falls in love with his first college romance, Susan; they marry and have children. But Sandy is haunted by the fear that he was too hasty, even though he and Susan lead a happy domestic life and strive to reinvigorate their sex life by making love "in all seven rooms" of their apartment. With Jonathan's help, he enters into an affair with Cindy, a tough professional woman who turns Sandy off because she is too overbearing.

However, beneath all this beauty lurks a beast. Visitors may not realize it, but Yellowstone is situated directly above one of the largest volcanic systems on Earth - a supervolcano. For the past two million years, this volcano has erupted roughly every 600,000 years. The last major eruption, which produced a caldera that stretches 80 kilometers by 50 kilometers across the park - two-thirds the size of Prince Edward Island - occurred 640,000 years ago. So, is it overdue for another eruption? There have been disturbing signals... possible warnings of another eruption that have scientists concerned. Recent earthquake swarms, coupled with the increasing size of the magma chamber and the enormous plume of molten rock that liquefies and feeds the chamber underneath Yellowstone, have put scientists on high alert for another possible volcanic eruption. A super volcanic eruption from Yellowstone would be immense - producing energy equivalent to the detonation of 1,000 nuclear bombs, it would emit one thousand cubic kilometers of ash, which is enough volume to fill the Grand Canyon twice. Supervolcano: Yellowstone's Fury examines the effect a cataclysmic eruption would have on the world and what could possibly be done to prepare for such a disaster. An eruption on this scale would be the largest natural disaster in recorded history. It could trigger a volcanic winter, kill millions of people and make most of North America uninhabitable. New York University Earth Scientist Michael Rampino warns that, "An eruption like Yellowstone could trigger the end of civilization as we know it." For experts, the question is not if there will be another eruption, but when. University of Toronto geologist John Westgate agrees: "There will be a very large-scale supervolcanic eruption from Yellowstone. That's a fact."

We are today living in the world of the victors of that war and without an objective, rational and balanced view of our history, we are doomed to repeat the mistakes. After World War Two, the victors of the war not only went on to write our history books, infiltrate our media and public education but even going so far as to criminalize the mere questioning of the official story's orthodoxy. The truth is, that our world today can only be understood through a correct understanding of World War II, the architects of it and the conflicts between Globalism and Nationalism. Between the old and new world order. The Traditional and the "Progressive". Day in and day out, has the post-war propaganda been pounded into the minds of three subsequent generations. Every medium of mass indoctrination has been harnessed to the task of training the obedient masses as to what the proper and "acceptable" view of this event should be.

For very good reasons, most people don't trust the mainstream media anymore. You have already heard the official history millions of times.

34380 ::: Passion & Power: The Technology of Orgasm (2007) ::: documentary ::: This is the story of one simple invention, the vibrator, and its relationship to one complex human behavior, the female orgasm. The history of the vibrator and its medical use had virtually vanished until historian, Rachel Maines, researching needlework patterns in early 20th century women's magazines, ran across ads for electric vibrators. Piquing her curiosity, she traced the origins of this early electrified appliance and made an astonishing discovery. Under the guise of a medical treatment, Victorian doctors had used vibrators to relieve women of symptoms of hysteria by masturbating them to orgasm. Why did women need this treatment? Female sexual satisfaction was, and continues to be, misunderstood or, worse, ignored. Almost 70% of women do not reach orgasm by penetration alone. Yet, the social, legal and religious definition of "real" sex is just that: penetration of the vagina to MALE orgasm. FEMALE orgasm isn't even considered. Is it any wonder that a lot of women were unsatisfied? Their dissatisfaction was labeled "hysteria." Symptoms of hysteria were vague - being cranky, reading French novels while wearing tight corsets, etc. It was a disease manufactured by doctors creating a lucrative clientele and a mutually camouflaged procedure that satisfied both. In the late 1920s, vibrators began appearing in blue movies. The camouflage was blown. Doctors dropped the treatment and manufacturers stopped advertising. The vibrator went underground and it disappeared from the annals of history until Maines happened upon it. In the 1970s, the feminist movement, the birth control pill and legalized abortions ushered in the sexual revolution. Artist and author, Betty Dodson almost single handedly brought the vibrator back into women's lives because of an accidental discovery. When Dodson and her lover used a barber's scalp massager on her clitoris, she experienced intense orgasms. Inspired by this revelation, she began a crusade to teach women how to have orgasms with vibrators - alone and with partners. In 2004, thirty years after Dodson's happy discovery, the female orgasm is under attack again. Former fifth grade teacher, Joanne Webb, was arrested for selling vibrators to two undercover cops in a small Texas town. She had broken a state law that prohibits the sale of devices that stimulate the genitals. Texas and three other states have enacted these laws, a backlash to feminism. In these states, however, it is legal to advertise and sell Viagra. This double standard for women has far-reaching contemporary implications for sexual freedom, civil liberties and the right to privacy.

34456 ::: "Shelldwellers" (????) ::: documentary ::: The animals will dictate the story, but there are messages that will be put trough. Our empathy with other beings depends upon many factors. Size often matters in the way we feel about other species and the smaller they are, the more difficult it is for us to feel empathy with them. With fish, it's even more difficult, because they are commonly believed to be devoid of emotion. These films will show without any margin of doubt that this is not the case and they will contribute to a more human approach to the way we deal with animals, whether at home or in the ocean, rivers and lakes. We can continue to make endless education campaigns for the environment, but if we can't relate to the people and animals that live there, the success of these campaigns is already very limited to start with. By showing that our lives deal mainly with the same issues, no matter what species or where we belong, I believe that we are taking an essential step to make these campaigns more effective. That has already been done with many "flag" animals with great results, like whales, dolphins, lions, pandas and tigers, but not with fish.

34557 ::: Sicixia (2016) ::: drama ::: Sicixia is a fiction feature-length film shot in Costa da Morte (Galicia, Spain). Sicixia is an intended peripheral film. Periphery is where the world gets different, not where it ends. For Romans, Finisterrae was the end of the world. Sicixia wants it to start from here. Sicixia portrays Costa da Morte's unique heritage by intertwining fiction and reality, powerful images with subtle and rich sounds and stories. Every frame dives into Costa da Morte's spirit, its very special people and singularity in a catchy kaleidoscopic way. Sicixia, which means eclipse, implies to rise, leaving behind the scarce heavenly mechanics of current cinema. It implies to go from black to a new way to produce fiction, which does not necessarily mean poverello but that is certainly rooted in franciscano spirit, just the opposite to mainstream productions. Alternative production, an open script permanently under construction and naturalist and risky performances are just a few examples of this new way to produce. And last but not least, Sicixia was shot in a peripheral language, Galician, spoken in fishermen's villages. Sound definitely plays a major role in this film, underpinning Sicixia's newness. This leitmotif mirrors Costa da Morte's rich diversity. Sicixia is therefore a film to listen to life in Costa da Morte. This focus has deliberately been chosen to counterbalance images' captivating influence in the digital world we live in. Sicixia is a walk with Love and Coast of Death.

34635 ::: Children of Fate (2006) ::: short ::: In 1945, following Nazi occupation, Hungary was again under siege. Russian troops looted the city, taking everything they wanted, setting homes on fire, and arresting innocent passers-by.

34640 ::: Safe (1995) ::: drama ::: "Safe" has been described as a horror movie of the soul, a description that director Todd Haynes relishes. California housewife Carol White seems to have it all in life: a wealthy husband, a beautiful house, servants, beauty, and a lot of friends. The only thing she lacks is a strong personality: Carol seems timid and empty during all of her interactions with the world around her. At the beginning of the film, one would consider her to be more safe in life than just about anyone. That doesn't turn out to be the case. Starting with headaches and leading to a grandmal seizure, Carol becomes more and more sick, claiming that she's become sensitive to the common toxins in today's world: exhaust, fumes, aerosol spray, etc. She pulls back from the sexual advances of her husband and spends her nights alone by the TV or wandering around the outside of her well-protected home like an animal in a cage. Her physician examines her and can find nothing wrong. An allergist finds that she has an allergic reaction to milk but explains that there is no treatment for that sort of allergy. She sees a psychiatrist who does nothing but make her nervous. In the hospital, Carol sees an infomercial for Wrenwood, a new-age retreat for those who are "environmentally ill," and leaves her husband and stepson to try and find salvation at this retreat: headed by a phony, grandstanding, "sensitive" individual named Peter Dunning. Todd Haynes's eerie medical thriller shows us that our environment has finally turned against us. Carol, a typical upper middle-class housewife, begins to complain of vague symptoms of illness. She "doesn't feel right," has unexplained headaches, congestion, a dry cough, nosebleeds, vomiting, and trouble breathing. Her family doctor treats her concerns dismissively and suggests a psychiatrist. Eventually, an allergist tells her that she has Environmental Illness. Her body is rebelling against the overload that her immune system has to deal with, as she is continually exposed to all of the chemicals that we inhale, ingest, and absorb daily. The pollution in our air, pesticides on our food, and toxins in our water, are collectively overwhelming her defenses. The ubiquitous sprays, creams, and emollients used to beautify have become deadly poisons to her. In essence, she has become allergic to the Twentieth Century. She sees Wrenwood as her only salvation, a New Agey center run (quite profitably) by Peter, a clichéd, easy-talking, demagogic guru. Unsettling and ambiguous, we are never sure about each character's hidden agenda, as they revolve around Carol, a timid, frightened pawn, overwhelmed by her condition.

34643 ::: Columbus Day Legacy (2011) ::: documentary ::: Columbus Day Legacy explores the quintessential American issues of free speech and ethnic pride against the backdrop of the ongoing Columbus Day parade controversy in Denver, Colorado.

Since 1992, the Denver Italian-American community has proudly and publicly celebrated Columbus Day with a revived parade, long a part of the city's history, much to the dismay of the local American Indian Movement chapter, equally determined to vilify the man credited with "discovering America." The history of this annual parade in Denver is peppered with both verbal and physical violence, challenging ideas of political correctness and freedom of assembly. Both the Italian- and Native Americans are strong, vibrant, tight-knit communities, a point conveyed by the film while addressing the conflicts of the freedom of speech, the interpretation of history, and what it means to be an "American."

34677 ::: Shanghai Gloaming (2006) ::: documentary ::: Amidst its garish neon lights, eight-lane superhighways and Blade Runner-esque skyscrapers, that's Shanghai today. No other city in the world has experienced the incredible velocity of change that has occurred in Shanghai since 1990 - the year Deng Xiaopeng gave his official blessing for the city to re-emerge as China's trading and financial center. Since Shanghai's re-birth, more than 4,000 new skyscrapers have been built (with another 300 currently under construction). Its population has increased by 23 percent to 16.4 million, making it the world's fifth largest metropolis. And its economy has grown at an annual rate often double that of China's turbo-charged national average of 7-8 percent. Once a gray, oppressive Communist metropolis, Shanghai is now - as a Time magazine cover story recently proclaimed - "The Hippest City in Asia" For the last five years, the Canadian photographer, Greg Girard, has been working on a project that represents his attempt to document these incredible changes. Every night at twilight, Girard heads out with his large format camera to document the old houses, apartments and residential lanes that have been disappearing as a result of Shanghai's relentless growth. What Girard's project is concerned with is not just the disappearance of the historic buildings that were erected before the Communists came to power in 1949. But the disappearance of a singular, Shanghainese way of life. "I'm documenting the people who live beneath the bright lights, the shadow of the city" says Girard, a soft-spoken Canadian who has worked in Asia for the last 25 years. "The people who are being left behind and yet whose lives are being affected the most." Today, Shanghai exists in a window between two worlds; a new city is rising as the old Shanghai disappears. In the film, we follow Girard as he photographs the end of one Shanghai - and the beginning of another. We will take viewers into a Shanghai that outsiders never see. Into the old Art Deco and Art Nouveaux villas, houses and apartments designed by the British and the French in the early 1900s where the majority of Shanghainese have lived since 1949. It is a world of cramped living quarters, shared kitchens and common stairwells. A world that became even more over-crowded when hundreds of thousands of workers and their families were forcibly moved into these old buildings during China's Cultural Revolution. It is this world that is, in many ways, the soul of Shanghai. The only life the residents of this city knew for the half-century between Shanghai's liberation by the Communists and its ascension to its current position as China's most modern metropolis. To have grown up and lived in these old, densely populated houses built by foreigners is, for many, the essence of being Shanghainese. Whereas other Chinese cities were ancient villages that became towns that became cities under Communist urban planning, Shanghai was a fully realized foreign city that was effectively taken over by its Chinese inhabitants. It is this foreign-built environment that gives Shanghai its unique character. And in the old lanes and alleyways of the former French and International Concessions, Shanghai exists much as it has for the last 50 years. Neighbors gossips with neighbors they have known for decades, the elderly sit outside their tiny apartments playing mahjong and children help their mothers with laundry at the outdoor sinks or do other after-school chores. It is an urban existence unlike any other. One shaped not only by colonialism, Communism and the tumult of China's Cultural Revolution - but also by an urban landscape unlike any other in all of China. Yet as skyscrapers continue to rise above these old lanes and the city continues its untrammeled march toward its singular brand of hyper-modernity, it is a Shanghai that is disappearing by the day. The film will follow Girard on a journey from the old disappearing Shanghai to the new Shanghai that emerging in its place. Articulate, intellectual and passionate about the project that has been his obsession for the last five years, Girard will serve as both the film's subject and its narrator. Though the film's structure is that of a traditional documentary - with distinct sequences where Girard interviews the different characters as he goes about photographing them for his project - the script will take the form of an essay. As we see Girard at work, interacting with the characters, his voiceover will explain why does what he does. Why photographing these old houses and the Chinese who inhabit them - these people "who live beneath the bright lights" - is more than just an attempt to document the end of one era and the beginning of another. It is a search for a city's soul. And through that search how he hopes to understand not only where Shanghai has come from, but also where its future will take it. This documentary follows photographer Greg Girard as he records every night at twilight the old houses, apartments and residential lanes that have been disappearing. What Girard's project is concerned with is not just the destruction of the historic buildings, but the disappearance of a singular, Shanghainese way of life.

34705 ::: Inkubátor (2010) ::: documentary ::: A documentary film about the transformation of an exile community nearly twenty years after the end of the Cold War. This film is about growing up in an exile community in the West, developing a double-identity, and becoming a hyphenated-somebody. It's about learning to have two homelands at the same time - one in real life, and the other imagined and maintained by parents who were forced to flee. It is about a first generation of children whose parents lived abroad longer than they originally expected to, and who never really assimilated. The story is told through an unlikely, albeit dramatic reunion - one which involves a Hungarian rock opera performed in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California by a cast of 40-something Hungarian-Americans. The original cast, including the film's director, meet in the exact same spot they performed Stephen, the king 25 years ago, as Hungarian scouts during summer camp in 1984. That summer the Soviets still had tanks stationed in Hungary, and the country was isolated behind the Iron Curtain. Many of these scouts had never been to Hungary, where their parents were born. The reunion of this original cast, now living all over the world including Budapest, makes for an emotional and hilarious portrait of one of many 'incubators' operating in the U.S. and Europe over the years. They're meeting not only to reminisce, but also to figure out just who they've become, twenty years after the 'Motherland' was liberated.

34712 ::: Bang! (2015) ::: short ::: Enrico and Francesco, two very different friends, meet in a sunny and lovely place, sipping fresh drinks under a gazebo.

34723 ::: Rez (2016) ::: documentary ::: ". . . As far as I'm concerned, digital projection is the death of cinema," Tarantino said, visibly heated. "The fact that most films aren't presented in 35mm means that the world is lost. Digital projection is just television in cinema." We follow film enthusiast Jasmin Dodik on his final trip to Donji Vakuf where he will screen a 35mm film to an audience - for free. In the last few years, his screenings have been extremely unsuccessful (on the last screening in Mostar, only 2 people attended) as digital projection has taken over the market, as well as the internet. This has caused Jasmin to fear the inevitable fate of the film reel, where young generations might only be able to watch it through a glass window at a museum, rather than in the cinema. The result of this final screening will determine if Jasmin will exhale in disappointment and donate his remaining 35mm films to anybody that will have them - or at least experience the kind of result that could provide him with the tiniest bit of hope that the 35mm could one day be brought back to life. An old film projectionist wants to save the film roll from its inevitable extinction caused by digital technology. He attempts to do so by going from city to city in Bosnia and Herzegovina, at his own expense, and screens old films to people on his 35mm projector - completely free of charge. The problem is this: Nobody ever shows up. We follow Jasmin Dodik on his journey to the little town of Donji Vakuf, where he will organize his last and final screening ever. The fate of this screening will also be the fate of Jasmin's hope in saving the film roll.

34755 ::: Adelante Petroleros! L'oro nero dell' Ecuador (2013) ::: documentary ::: Seven years ago, Ecuador decided to not to exploit the oilfields under the rainforest.

34757 ::: Jsem devce s certem v tele (1933) ::: comedy ::: This Czech sophisticated romantic comedy, filmed by director Anton also in a parallel French version ("Une petite femme dans le train"), casts beautiful Czech star Baarova in the role that Meg Lemonnier played in the Gallic version. Both versions seem to owe something to the sophisticated "continental" comedies of Lubitsch and, later, Korda, although Anton was not exactly in their league. It may be coincidence that the original Czech title of this film ("Jsem devce...") can be translated as "I'm a Girl with a Devil in the Flesh." Both Raymond Radiguet's French novel "Le diable au corps" and Garbo's famous MGM film, "Flesh and the Devil" (based on Radiguet's book), would have been well known in Czechoslovakia as well as France, before "Jsem devce..." was filmed. But the Radiguet & Garbo creations were very serious, while the Anton-Lemonnier-Baarova films were light and amusing. Pehaps no connection. (A Czech language web-site today displays a nice poster from the 1933 Czech film: "http://www.csfd.cz/film.php?186".) Lida Baarova (who plays the naughty wife in the Czech film) in her later career experienced less amusing and more serious ups and downs, particularly as a consequence of her brief stardom in Nazi Germany in the last half of the 1930s and in Fascist Italy in the early 1940s. After WW2 Baarova was jailed nearly 2 years in her native Czechoslovakia, and may have come close to the death penalty, accused of "collaborating" with the Fascist film industries.

34883 ::: My Favorite Year (1982) ::: comedy ::: Benjy Stone is the junior writer on the top rated variety/comedy show, in the mid 50s (the early years). Its a new medium and the rules were not fully established. Alan Swann, an Erol Flynn type actor with a drinking problem is to be that weeks guest star. When King Kaiser, the headliner wants to throw Swann off the show, Benjy makes a pitch to save his childhood hero, and is made Swann's babysitter. On top of this, a union boss doesn't care for Kaiser's parody of him and has plans to stop the show. It's 1950's New York and the age of live television. Benjy Stone is a young writer on a major comedy-variety show. He is assigned to chaperon that week's guest Alan Swann, a faded movie-star and renowned womanizer and drinker. Benjy's job is to try and keep Swann sober and above all else, make sure he shows up for the live broadcast on Saturday evening. Benjy and Swann have a number of adventures throughout the week, including dinner with Benjy's somewhat eccentric family. In the end, both learn lessons in life from the other. Benjy Stone reminisces about one week in his life back in 1954 - his favorite year - when television, especially live comedy shows, were just coming into their own as popular entertainment. He was then a junior writer on one such show, "Comedy Cavalcade", starring the demanding and egotistical Stan 'King' Kaiser. On this week, the guest star was Benjy's swashbuckling movie idol, Alan Swann, who was past his prime as a movie star. Swann had a reputation as a boozer and a carouser, which made King and the production staff nervous about him honoring his commitment to the show. As Swann's biggest booster among the staff, Benjy was assigned to be Swann's chaperon, making sure Swann not only met his commitments, but also behaved in a family friendly manner in public. Benjy's work monitoring Swann was not an easy one, but the two became a guide for the other in navigating through issues in their respective lives. For Benjy, these included how to deal with his overbearing Jewish mother, and how to win the heart of the show's production assistant, K.C. Downing, who only saw in Benjy a manic goof-ball. For Swann, these included how to act responsibly, especially with regard to a twelve year old daughter, Tess, who he had not seen in years. Swann's unpredictability, in part in combination with issues regarding the show's on-going 'Boss Hijack' sketch, which was based on real life mobster Karl Rojeck, led to an interesting end to the week for both Benjy and Swann.

But in recent times, as the system, and the world, has grown a hundredfold more complex we have veered away from the pursuit of any clear, critical understanding of the phenomenon. Economic departments in most major universities in the English-speaking world have abolished courses in the history of Economic and political economy. We are left with incomprehensible mathematical models whose relevance to the real world is hotly disputed. We were told very little about Adam Smith, David Ricardo and Thomas Malthus yet their names have been used to give legitimacy to contemporary economic activities. To further obscure the issues, this Ť econo speak ť has been supplemented by endless superficial news reports, pundits discussions and analysis filled with clichés and superficial information. Our series intends to puncture this veil of opacity to go beyond the current Ť econo- speak ť to re examine the ideas which have been used in the past 40 to reshape the world. Is today's economic crisis a temporary blimp on the road to progress or a symptom of a deeper crisis of the system as a whole? Can the big ideas of the at the heart of our Economic system help us understand today's economic crisis, or obscure it? And more importantly - can they show us a way out? Where does capitalism come from? Did it evolve through the normal course of our societies or was it born from theories elaborated by political changes and technologies? This 6 part series is an in-depth investigation shot in over 22 countries that challenges the fathers of capitalism and the established ideas and principles of the system.

The foundation of the European Union has established parity between countries with different economies and different average salaries. Many people from the weaker economic countries go to work in countries economically more strong, looking for better wages. The recent financial crisis and the lack of employment has dramatically increased the situation. Adults, in many cases parents, go to work in other countries and leave their young children without any parental guidance at home. At a young age, family represents natural protection; to have parents working in other countries creates a need and a major lack of help for a young person. The family crisis that is generated contributes to the uncertainty and well being in the lives of the teenagers. Furthermore, when a whole family decides to emigrate, the young person finds him/herself outside of the natural and familiar surrounding of friends, environment and acquaintances. This new situation exposes teenagers to temptations of going off track and to look to alcohol, drugs, prostitution and similar non-solutions, to solve the problems they faces but they didn't create. Of course, there are different ways to react to all this; some are good, many are bad and bring about bad consequences. THE BAD JOKE is a fruit of fiction, it is a new non graphic feature film that portrays some situations in which many adolescents and teenagers live and face the new challenges in today's new European Union.

Meantime Mr. Murray confides in Katherine his great sorrow. Katherine asks him why he doesn't ask his prodigal son to return, to which the elderly man replies, that he would if he could find the boy.

Uncle Billy enters, grapples with the men and is being overcome when Jane hits one of the robbers on the head with an iron. Billy soon quiets the other. The racket attracts Mr. Murray and hotel attendants, who arrest the crooks. After the excitement subsides Mr. Murray embraces his son and restores him to his estate. Billy and Betty withdraw and decide there is no blessedness in being single, and Jane and Katherine watch with mingled pleasure and surprise the outcome of the events in which they were small but important factors.

Had that plane hit any other point on the building, thousands more could have died. It was a miracle that more people didn't perish in the horror. The miracles were many that day, as were acts of heroism - many by civilian Pentagon employees. Sacrifices, bravery, and triumph that few Americans have heard about. Admiralty Productions announces "Pentagon 911" - a television documentary that will be the definitive history of the September 11th attack on our nation's military headquarters. For the first time, the heroes, the survivors, and the victim's families will give an account of what actually happened that fateful day. This historic program will commemorate the 5th year anniversary of the attack and will reveal little-known facts and coincidences: - September 11th has always been an historic day for the Pentagon - even before 2001. - The American Airlines 757 wasn't alone in the air. - How the American Airlines pilot (killed by the hijackers) was actually integral to the survival of many Pentagon employees. - The warning call to the Pentagon, minutes before the attack. - The men who went back in through the flames to protect the firefighters. - What was simultaneously taking place at the CIA's National Reconnaissance Office. - The skies were cleared, aircraft were grounded, but one plane was actually permitted to land in Washington under F-16 escort. - A small group witnessed both the crash of American Airlines flight 77 into the Pentagon and the crash of United Airlines flight 93 in Somerset, Pennsylvania. We'll re-visit the minutes before the attack, recreate the moment of impact, join those who survived in their struggle to escape, and explore some eerie coincidences. We'll interview those who went back in through the flames to save others, the woman whose near-term pregnancy saved her life, the firefighters first on the scene, and top military officials in one-on-one interviews about the attack. Viewers will take an inside tour of the Pentagon's "E-ring" where the plane hit, plowed through the "D-ring" and came to rest in the "C-ring," leaving pools of molten aluminum and a trail of unimaginable destruction. We'll hear how a group of visitors was spared by a last-minute question, and from a Navy Lt. Commander who saved the life of a civilian who had been blown skyward by the explosion and landed amidst the burning debris. We will also take a brief look at some controversies surrounding the attack - some say there was no plane, though many witnesses claim to have seen it. In this documentary, new facts will be revealed, amazing stories will be told, and myths will be laid to rest. Americans will be proud to see how quickly the Pentagon responded to defend the nation, and how quickly it recovered from disaster to enable the special men and women on the inside to get back to the business of protecting freedom.

35269 ::: Angstfleisch: Fleischangst (1997) ::: documentary ::: For more than a decade, German filmmaker Manfred Karremann has been reporting on the treatment of animals, particularly the abuses of livestock. His undercover documentaries contain disturbing footage of cattle transports, where cows suffer shocking treatment on the way to slaughter. Many are transported across three countries--a journey that can last as long as a week. And despite stricter laws, animals with injuries--even those with broken limbs--continue to be transported. While Karremann's exposés have earned him awards--as well as threats--they have also brought needed attention to the efforts of some farmers to reduce the amount of suffering livestock endure. Deeply concerned about the well-being of his animals, Austrian farmer Herbert Schwaiger has developed an innovative means to reduce the stress and suffering cattle experience just prior to slaughter. Instead of subjecting the animals to a long, cramped and painful journey to the slaughterhouse, Schwaiger has created a mobile slaughter truck. The truck drives from farm to farm and two butchers take care of all the work. This makes an animal's last journey short and free of fear and stress. In addition to being a more humane process, this treatment has also proved beneficial to farmers and their customers. Studies have shown that stress lowers the quality considerably. When animals are constantly forced to balance themselves in transport vehicles, the sugar in their muscles is used up, which negatively affects the quality of the meat. This film chronicles the efforts of Schwaiger and others, including organic farmers, to encourage a more humane treatment of livestock. These proponents argue that eliminating unnecessary stress and fear will result in higher quality meat. And better meat means healthier living. Warning: Some viewers will find the images of cattle abuse and scenes of slaughter disturbing. In German with English subtitles.

A director with a very distinctive style, Jovan Jovanovic has filmed in 1971 one of the most significant works in the history of contemporary Serbian film. "Young and Healthy Like a Rose" is a strong visionary achievement that still looks topical today as back in the times when it was filmed and banned by the then communist censorship.

With incredible foresight of things to come, Jovanovic's leading character says: "I am your future". More poetical than Hollywood movies, much more realistic than "Trainspotting". An exciting story about crime, drugs and the deadly grip of the secret police in Serbia. The best role of Dragan Nikolic, one of the rare ones he presented himself as a tough guy and the authentic sex symbol from this region. A slap in the face of film and other convention. A must see!

The historical role of Ames in the production of materials for the first atomic bomb is portrayed in archival footage featuring two important involved scientists of the time (Dr. Harley Wilhelm and Dr. Frank Spedding). In addition, interviews with present-day physicists (Marv Anderson and Al Bevolo), a historian (Gloria Betcher), and the elderly spouse of a laboratory worker (Elizabeth Smith) also help present the story.

Interrupting this history of World War II heroics is Dr. Johanshir Golchin, an Iranian- American environmental engineer who recalls coming across a document in 1992 entitled "The Tiger Team Report" during his time as an environmental regulator. This top-secret report by the US Department of Energy (DOE), detailed ten sites in the city of Ames that were contaminated with radioactive waste. After reading the report, Golchin's primary concern was for the site of the former Ames Waste Water Treatment Plant, where a youth sports complex was constructed. The filmmaker (Prater) visits an Ames neighborhood that suffered from a "cancer epidemic" in the 1990s. As she becomes further drawn into her research, she learns about the science behind different types of ionizing radiation, and the history of nuclear weapons development and production by the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) after WWII. Physicist, Al Bevolo speaks to Prater about problems that the DOE (formerly AEC) has had with the private contracting firms it hired for toxic cleanup, and these firms' tendency to stall indefinitely the cleanup at Superfund sites. The story of the controversy and cover-up concerning the youth sports complex unfolds through both archival video footage and Dr. Golchin's present-day recollections. VHS footage of a town meeting reveals that the Ames Laboratory (run by the DOE) at one point flushed high-level radioactive waste down city's sanitary- sewer drains. This waste traveled to the treatment plant where it was eventually mixed with sludge that was given away to citizens as fertilizer for private gardens and crops. An archival interview with Harley Wilhelm (Ames leader in the Manhattan Project) confirms that most of the toxic waste generated during the war was buried in the woods near the "cancer cluster" neighborhood discussed earlier. After this site became publicly revealed about fifty years after the fact, it was hastily cleaned up and the waste sent to New Jersey. Much like a chain reaction (or fission), the film starts small with one town and builds to its national story and its unintended environmental consequences. The film follows the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) as it evolves over time from its roots in the making of the bomb, to further weapons and energy production after World War II, eventually changing its name to the Department of Energy (DOE). The process that was invented in Ames was later taken over by Ohio Lead Company in Fernald, Ohio near Cincinnati. The aquifer at this site is now contaminated with radioactive waste.

At the same time the processes of movement are subjected to a repetitive rhythm and thus transformed into a dance.
35407 ::: Gigis Traum - Interview mit einem Toten (2016) ::: documentary ::: It is 2003 and Viennese film student Gerlinde Schmid travels to Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia, the home of talented young film student Gigi. The filmmaker has chosen him as the protagonist of her degree project. Her suitcase contains a video camera and a microphone. Her budget does not stretch to expensive equipment or a dedicated camera crew. It is Gerlinde Schmid's first trip to this country on Europe's frontier: a land fundamentally transformed by the collapse of the Soviet Union. The people of Georgia, once the poster child of the Soviet Union, now find themselves faced with economic challenges - hardships that have not spared the arts, either, in the new free-market system. Her explorations of the vast, once-famous Georgia Film studios reveal the omnipresent collapse. Ten years after her first visit, the filmmaker decides to visit Gigi again. Have the young country of Georgia and its film industry managed to forge a path of their own? Have the hopes Gigi had as a young student dreams been fulfilled? But she suffers a difficult setback: Gigi no longer wishes to appear on camera. Defying the obstacles and having faith in a positive future are qualities she admires in the Georgians, and it is this same attitude that helps her to complete her film in spite of Gigi's absence on camera. Schmid's journey of discovery results in a documentary that traces the career of a Georgian film student against the backdrop of the young, post-Soviet nation. At the same time, it reflects Georgia's cinematic heritage, which has experienced drastic change through various economic systems. As well as Gigi, the film features Rezo Chkheidze (Father of a Soldier), Merab Saralidze, Nana Janelidze and other great names of Georgian cinema.

Sixteen women working in one workplace have developed breast cancer. The majority are young, none have a family history of the disease and no environmental cause has been found for the illness. A team of scientists has begun to investigate if the cause could be a virus. It is a controversial idea, with extraordinary implications. In the United States, researchers are hunting a virus that triggers breast cancer in mice and asking, could it spread to people? In the United Kingdom, childhood leukaemia is under the microscope and infection is the prime suspect. 20% of all cancers worldwide are caused by infections. Now, across the planet, new evidence is emerging that links viruses and bacteria to an increasing number of cancers. Should we be worried? Does this mean we could all 'catch' cancer? In Germany, clever detective work by Prof Harald zur Hansen solved the deadly riddle of viruses causing cervical cancer and, in 2008, won him a Nobel Prize. In the beautiful islands of Vanuatu, a medical revolution is underway - the roll-out of the world's first vaccine specifically engineered to stop a cancer. Featuring world experts, Nobel Laureates and virus hunters on the front line, Catching Cancer is a fast-paced investigation of a provocative idea. Voyaging deep into the mysterious cellular world of cancer, the film demonstrates how cancer begins and what factors rig the 'cancer lottery's' lethal odds. Combining intimate personal stories and intriguing science, Catching Cancer reveals how finding a hidden trigger, such as a virus, is not a reason to panic; it's a reason to celebrate.

35514 ::: Julia (1977) ::: drama ::: This Oscar-winning drama, based on the writing of 'Lillian Hellman' (qv), depicts the relationship between two friends and its unexpected consequences. After Lillian, a renowned playwright, reunites in Russia with her childhood playmate Julia, the writer is recruited to smuggle funds into Germany to aid the anti-Nazi movement. Waiting in the wings is Lillian's lover and mentor, 'Dashiell Hammett' (qv), who is unaware of her dangerous assignment. American playwright 'Lillian Hellman' (qv) recounts a story from the mid-1930s leading into WWII concerning her best childhood friend, the wealthy Julia, who was raised by her maternal grandparents. At the time of this story, Hellman is just starting her writing career, and is in a relationship with older novelist 'Dashiell Hammett' (qv) who also acts as her mentor, while Julia, a medical student, is living in Vienna where she hoped to study under such luminaries as Freud. Direct visits between Lily and Julia are now infrequent due to the Nazi uprising in the central Europe, including in Austria. Lily does discover that Julia has been hospitalized in assisting her school colleagues against Nazi beatings and murders. This action by Julia only continues her mindset toward activism against anything she sees as being socially or politically corrupt. Lily's career begins to blossom, albeit with its own obstacles, with the mounting of her first play, The Children's Hour, on Broadway. Thereafter, she is invited to attend a conference in Russia, when she plans to stop in Vienna en route from Paris to see Julia if she is still there, she not having heard from Julia of late despite attempt after attempt to contact her. However, Lily learns through a friend of Julia's, a man named Johann, that she is making a request of her friend, which Julia states through Johann she can turn down if she so chooses: to change the route of her trip through Berlin instead of Vienna to smuggle $50,000 of Julia's money into Germany to help fund the resistance. Despite not seeing herself as a heroic type of person like Julia and despite the added personal risk of being Jewish in Nazi Germany, Lily agrees. En route, Lily has to read the cues correctly of those around her to learn who she can and cannot trust, reading those cues incorrectly which could lead to her and Julia's demise. Lily will also learn of another request from her friend, one of a more personal nature, and as such perhaps more important to Lily to achieve. From "Pentimento," the memoirs of late playwright Lillian Hellman, JULIA covers those years in the 1930s when Lillian attained fame with the production of her first play "The Children's Hour" on Broadway. Not surprisingly, it centers on Lillian's relationship with her lifelong friend, Julia. It is a relationship that goes beyond mere acquaintance and one for which the word "love" seems appropriate. While Julia attends the University in Vienna, studying with such luminaries as Sigmund Freud and Albert Einstein, Lillian suffers through revisions of her play with her mentor and sometimes lover Dashiell Hammett at a New England beach house. After becoming a celebrated playwright, Lillian is invited to a writers' conference in Russia. Julia, having taken up the battle against fascism, enlists Lillian to smuggle money through Nazi Germany which will assist in the Anti-Fascist cause. It is a dangerous mission especially for a Jewish intellectual on her way to communist Russia. During a brief meeting with Julia on this trip in Berlin, Lillian learns that Julia has had a child who is called Lilly. While in Moscow, Lillian learns of Julia's murder. The details of her death are shrouded in secrecy. Lillian sadly travels to London and then to Alsace to search for her namesake, the child she had promised Julia to care for.

35516 ::: Beyond the Breaker (2018) ::: documentary ::: A towering 11-story structure of steel and glass, the Huber Breaker, built in 1939, used state-of-the-art technology to process 7000 tons of Anthracite coal per day. With the decline of Anthracite and the end of the industrial age, the Huber Breaker closed in 1976 and was left to rot. The once creaking mechanical breaker that affected several generations of workers, fell silent and into decay. The coal industry was not kind to its workers and the Anthracite mining industry was no exception. Beginning in the mid 1700's, Anthracite mining became a way for immigrants to earn a living after coming to America. Working conditions were hazardous with miners facing suffocation from low oxygen, injury or death from explosions from Methane gas, etc., black lung disease from constant exposure to coal dust, and cave-ins and roof collapses due to weak mine infrastructure. In addition to job hazards, miners were abused by the companies for which they worked. They lived in company houses on company land and bought all household items in the company store. Literally every penny that a miner earned went back into the pockets of the mining company, leaving workers trapped in a cycle of debt, rarely able to free themselves from what amounts to industrial slavery. The Anthracite coal industry also used children in mines and breakers. Breaker boys would sit in coal chutes separating coal from rocks and shale. Their fingers bled, their eyesight degraded from sitting in the belly of a darkened breaker, and their backs became hunched from sitting in the same position day after day. As the Huber Breaker decayed, it began to take on a new persona, transforming from a symbol of industry into a place of exploration and reverence for an era long gone. In Ashley, Pennsylvania, the home of the breaker, community members had mixed feelings about what fate the breaker should face. Many people felt that the breaker should be preserved, left as an icon and a memorial to those who worked in the Anthracite coal fields. It represented history, ancestry, and the importance of holding on to roots of an industry that both built and destroyed many lives. Others saw the Huber Breaker as a symbol of injustice and thought that the only reverence lies in tearing it down. Beyond The Breaker explores the connections between people, place and the legacy of coal mining that still influences Pennsylvania's Anthracite region. It explores the coal fields where remnants of other collieries lay scattered like the remains of dinosaurs. And it questions whether we will continue the destructive cycles that punish those who have less or if we are able to transform our future into one that has a reverence for its mistakes and is able to overcome the problems we face because of our choices, ones that valued profit over people.

Approaching the building you are impressed by the ominous silence and gloom that envelop it. The hoot of an owl and the sudden apparition of a myriad of bats send cold chills chasing one another up and down your spinal cord. Entering a large room, your ears are assailed by unearthly noises and discordant sounds. You are about to seat yourself at a table when table and chair disappear as if by magic and you sprawl upon the floor. You see strange shapes and weird, flitting figures; you are chased from one room to another by toothless hags and dried up witches; skeletons grin at you from every nook and cranny of the building, disappearing and reappearing in a most bewildering fashion: a pretty girl comes out of the frame of an old picture, and as you are about to kiss her hand you find a donkey's head nestling snugly in your fingers. Would you be frightened? One young man about town certainly was when he saw all these strange happenings.

An early-day version of bungee-jumping that is a macho-virility proving exercise that delights the village maidens. The art-house aspects and come-on was that it depicted strange love-rites in strange lands, even if some of them were re-enactments in color, in places of the black-and-white stock footage that had been serving in several reincarnations over the years. Highlights include "The Dance of the Fertility Tree" and "The Peek-A-Boo Betrothal." A few National Geographic-type scenes of nudity, and that's the closest it gets to even PG movies.

35556 ::: Return to Cuba: In the Footsteps of Walker Evans (2016) ::: documentary ::: In November of 2014, weeks before President Obama announced restored relations with Cuba, a group of renowned photographers traveled to Cuba, following in the footsteps of the famous American documentary photographer, Walker Evans (1903-1975), who worked in Cuba 80 years prior. The film portrays the diverse ways that Sam Abell, Abelardo Morell, Mark Klett, Cig Harvey, and Greg Gorman make their own images while exploring the busy streets of Havana and genteel countryside of Vinales. From the quick, and studied street-photography style of Sam Abell, to the unique camera-obscura technique of Abe Morell, the film highlights the diverse art forms within the colorful and complex culture of Cuba. In his first commissioned body of work as a photographer-a year before he traveled to Hale County, Alabama, to complete the seminal depression era work at the Farm Security Administration that led to the book "Let Us Now Praise Famous Men"- Walker Evans traveled to Cuba in 1933 to document the conditions of the Machado regime for Carleton Beal's book "The Crime of Cuba". His work documented a fragile period of Cuba's history-beautifully and honestly depicting the poverty, political turmoil, and cultural complexities. Evans also spent two weeks in the company of Ernest Hemingway, who allegedly paid for Evans to extend his stay in the country to socialize and continue photographing. In the past 80 years, some things have changed in Cuba, while many other things have remained the same. While only time will tell, full diplomatic and trade relations with Cuba are now on the cusp of dramatic change, and the destiny of the longtime friendship of two groups of people who share a great deal in common hangs in the balance. "Return to Cuba: In the Footsteps of Walker Evans," captures a pivotal moment in Cuba's history and provides a beautiful and lively journey to a country on the edge of massive political, cultural, and economic change. From a retired National Geographic photographer, to Hollywood's most famous portrait photographer-the project brought together some of the world's most thoughtful and talented photographers. Of the five featured photographers, some closely re-photograph the locations of Evans' work, while others take a more interpretive approach. The range of photographic styles produced during the project highlights the artistic range and powerful tool of photography. Furthermore, the project allowed for close cultural, artistic, and professional exchanges between Cuban photographers and the American photographers.

35571 ::: Party Like the Rich and Famous (2012) ::: history ::: The most expensive party in American history takes place at the newly opened Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York City on Feb 10th 1897. This elaborate costume ball is attended by nearly 1,000 of New York's wealthiest citizens, many billionaires by today's standards, all dressed in costumes celebrating European royalty. In a single night they drink their way through 4,000 bottles of the finest champagne, and gorge on a 28-course feast fit for any king. But this epic display of excess comes during the worst depression America has known at this time, and not everyone is applauding the show. The host of the night is Cornelia Bradley-Martin, heiress to a vast fortune and a woman on a mission. She hopes to provide a much-needed stimulus to New York's lagging economy-and to be crowned "Queen" of an exclusive high society known as "The Four Hundred". But she's given herself only three weeks to prepare this astonishing event. The logistics alone for such a massive party are remarkable even by today's standards, and to add to the challenge, on the very night of the ball a snowstorm descends upon the metropolis. Today, the same hotel still puts on huge events that parallel this famous party. The annual Viennese Opera Ball is one of the highlights of New York's social calendar and attracts dignitaries, diplomats and débutantes. Six hundred guests gather every year paying up to $25,000 per table to charity in celebration of a European tradition that goes back nearly two centuries. But what are the parallels with the famous Bradley Martin Ball and what are the differences? Jes Gordon and Marcie Rudell are two of New York's elite party planners. They both put on parties costing thousands of dollars. So how would they cope with planning America's most expensive party if they had just three weeks to make it happen? A thousand invitations need to be sent before the advent of email, beautifully tailored dresses have to be produced by hand, and food needs to be delivered and kept fresh without the help of refrigeration. Perhaps most challenging of all, a battle for public opinion must be won...or there may be consequences for the night's epic indulgence. This one-hour special goes inside the machinations of the Bradley Martins' record-setting costume ball in America's number one metropolis to learn what it takes to party like the rich and famous.

All seemed to take a jolly view of the matter, except Van Allen, who, the others noticed, looked with disapproval on the flirtation. They could not understand his mood, and prodded him for his prudishness. When Smythe joined them, Van Allen called him over and asked him to listen to the story he was about to tell, the story of one man who paid for his loose habits. First, he drew from his pocket, a picture of a young man, about Smythe's age. "My sister's only boy," he said. "Two years ago he was leading the kind of life you are now, Smythe. He came down to Mexico to visit me and met Chonita, a pretty Mexican girl. He immediately became infatuated with her, to the consternation of Pedro, another of her lovers, who soon saw that Teddy held a higher place in her heart than he. When her father heard of the affair, he sent her away to their summer hacienda, hoping that she would forget Teddy. Then Ted received an invitation from a friend to spend the summer with him, and accepted. Out hunting one day, he met Chonita and both were happy at the reunion. He told her of his love for her, and she believed him. Of course he promised to marry her. One day, while walking through the forest. Ted just missed stepping on a tarantula, and shrinking from the hideous thing, told Chonita that he feared those terrible spiders worse than anything on earth. Sometime later, Ted received a note from her telling him to meet her at the usual place, and from the tone of the note he knew what had happened. She came, and brought a minister with her, but Teddy was married, and had two children, so even if he had wanted to, he could not have married her. Before word got back to the hacienda, Ted had hopped on a horse and started at a mad gallop for the railroad station, to avoid the wrath of her father and Pedro. Back in New York once more, he felt secure. Chonita meanwhile was thrown out of her father's house, and her child was born in an abandoned cabin. It lived but a few hours. Then Chonita got a position as dancer in a cheap music hall and became popular immediately. The proprietor of a New York café, seeing her perform, asked her to come to the city and dance for him. When she remembered that her betrayer was also in the city, she accepted. Hearing of her proposed trip, her father sent her a dagger, so that she might first kill Teddy and then herself, but she returned it, telling him that she would choose her own method of death for both of them. In the city she met Teddy once more. She responded to all his advances and finally induced him to invite her to his apartment. Here she presented him with an elaborate jewel case, which, she said, contained a gift. When his anxious hands opened the case, a giant tarantula crawled out. Need I tell you that he died a terrible death?" In a meditative mood, Beauty Smythe sat in his room and reflected on what he had heard. Then the moral hit home, and the letter he had intended sending to his latest "sweetheart" never went further than the trash basket.

35706 ::: The Marauders (1955) ::: western ::: In 1875, in Arizona Territory, rancher John Rutherford plans to forcibly evict all squatters from his lands. The rancher welcomes his son Roy who has just returned home from England. He also hires a group of mercenaries to assist him in evicting squatters from his property. These hired goons and cutthroats are paid 500 dollars each. Their foreman is Hook who owes his nickname to the hook that replaced his missing right hand. Rutherford has also brought along his bookkeeper, Mr. Avery, to pay the men. During the Civil War, Mr. Avery avoided the draft, due to his bad health but he proudly wears a Confederate officer's uniform. On Rutherford's lands there is one remaining unfriendly squatter, Corey Everett, who stubbornly refuses to leave. His shack is at the deep end of a boxed canyon. Corey Everett has transformed his shack into a reinforced fortress. He dug a water well near his shack and this can help him outlast any siege, since there is no other source of water for 200 miles around. Nevertheless, rancher Rutherford, his son and the hired team of mercenaries are determined to oust Corey Everett from the property. Everett thinks he's entitled to live there since the canyon was deserted when he arrived and since he's been farming a small plot of land nearby for many years. Rutherford sends a scout to get water from Everett's water well and to assess the situation. The scout arrives at Everett's well but an irate armed Everett exits the shack and tells the scout to get water and leave. The scout leaves the area observing that at every window of the shack there is a rifle pointing at him. The scout returns to Rutherford's camp where he reports his findings. Meanwhile, a family of passers-by, Louis and Hannah Ferber and their son Albie, riding a wagon, arrive in the canyon and head for the water well. A suspicious Everett allows them to draw water from the well. While the strangers talk to Everett about his plight, Rutherford's men start an attack. Panicked, Everett and the Ferbers run for cover inside the shack. The Ferbers notice the rifles set at the windows in firing position but no one else available to man them. They realize that it was a ruse employed by Everett to make any unwanted visitor believe that inside the shack there are many armed men. Because his secret is now revealed to his guests, Everett refuses to allow them to leave, believing they will betray his secret ruse to Rutherford's men. Despite assurances from the Ferbers that they will not reveal Everett's ruse to Rutherford's men, Everett refuses to let them go. Besides, they all are under attack by Rutherford's men who slowly are approaching the shack while unleashing a hail of bullets at the defenders. The Ferbers agree to temporarily help Everett fight off Rutherford's men hoping to leave the area later-on during the night. During the ensuing battle, Rutherford and his son are mortally wounded, while many mercenaries are killed by dynamite explosions from hidden booby-traps previously buried in the sand by Everett. Rutherford orders a retreat to the camp to regroup and assess the loses. In the camp he decides to quit, arguing that a small piece of land lost to one solitary squatter isn't worth the loss of lives. However, his usually calm bookkeeper, Mr. Avery, insists to continue the forced-eviction campaign. A dying Rutherford refuses to listen to Avery, reminding Avery that it's Rutherford's property and Rutherford is still in charge. Avery aggravates Rutherford by placing himself in-charge of the campaign and arguing that Rutherford is not fit to command anymore. He also observes that Rutherford will die soon and he will be unable to order his hired men to quit and go home. Enraged by Avery's words, Rutherford exits his tent to give his last orders to his men to disperse but he dies before he has a chance to do so. Avery declares himself in-charge of the campaign and tells the men to call him General and obey his orders. When the foreman, Hook, mocks Avery's orders, Avery shoots one of the men dead. Afraid of a mad Avery, the men reluctantly agree to call him General and obey his orders. Avery makes Hook his second-in-command and promises a rich gold reward to him and to the men if they obey. Now, with a more dangerous man in-charge of the eviction campaign, the squatter Everett and his guests, the Ferbers, are in serious trouble.

We also meet the exuberant and ironic "Romina", who seems to have made her dreams come true thanks to prostitution: a woman's body, a housewife's routine, a small flat and some money. Two parallel existences that are apparently poles apart but will in fact unite in one tragic ending. Both light-hearted and tragic, switching from flirtatiousness to misery, from optimism to fatalism, the story of Romina and Mia balances between joyful complicity and solitary distress.

While AIDS grabs the headlines and raises billions of dollars with celebrity endorsements and billionaire endowments, we are no closer to finding a cure than when the scourge first appeared 30 years ago. Could it be that after so many years of research, and so much money being spent, that the entire orthodox medical establishment has been wrong about AIDS, or even worse, has sought to profit on a system that it knew was flawed from the beginning? Doctor Robert Gallo who discovered the HIV virus said that there is no legitimate dissent when it comes to AIDS. But there are more than 5,000 physicians, microbiologists, journalists and activists who disagree and say that we have been misled about the real causes of AIDS and the nature of its treatment. The mainstream media has chosen not to provide an outlet for their opinions. In this important film, documentary filmmaker and health expert Gary Null, traveled to more than 30 countries over an eight year period to seek them out and get their interviews. This is the first film on AIDS that brings the most compelling of their arguments together in one place. Dr. Null blows the lid off the wealthy AIDS industry and shows how greed and corruption have prevented any real progress in fighting the epidemic or its underlying causes. The film challenges the entrenched notion that AIDS or HIV is an African monkey virus that is spread sexually and can be "treated" with harmful drugs. Instead, the film considers the common underlying conditions of the epidemic, such as malnutrition, unclean water, poverty, illness, and poor lifestyle choices. The evidence is damning, and a clarion call to the public that the AIDS Industrial Complex is on the wrong track and has become a spending juggernaut completely out of control.

Through an analogical collage of heterogeneous audiovisual material, the film portrays the physicality of the voyage, as it traces an experience that is a sort of initiation. "Compared to the contemporary world, the imagination of that era was less bound by the power of mechanical methods of reproduction, represented by photography, valorized exclusively in its objectifying deviation to the detriment of the other arts. Despite its precursors, cinema, in its path toward affirmation, had not yet achieved the final step for the perfect, realistic, mechanical imitation of man: movement. It would soon do so. In a certain sense, the film tries to relocate that visual dimension which is uncertain, shaky, and at the same time occult, mysterious, alive, and now lost, through a proposed aesthetic that comes about through the mixture of form and non-form, of the knowable and the unrecognizable, of reality and the imagination."

Soon his art was labeled "decadent" by the Hitler regime. His paintings were removed from museum collections, he could no longer show new work in galleries, or even purchase art supplies. Soon after the end of WWII, Nay, by now 43 years old, returned to painting much inspired by his need 'to catch up'. Once his work could be followed again year by year after 1946, he rose to become one of Germany's leading painters. Somehow though the importance and range of his work has not fully entered the contemporary consciousness of the art world. This may partly be due to the fact that Nay belonged to that persecuted generation of German artists who, just as their work began to blossom, were forced by Hitler's art dictatorship to go underground. There they had to continue, under the harshest circumstances and in complete isolation, what they had begun earlier. Ernst Wilhelm Nay died in 1968 at the age of 65.

'Ab Fab's Patsy and 'Birds of a Feather's Dorian were women in sexual control,like the girls in 'Men Behaving Badly',whose boyfriends were immature and desperate. Come the twenty-first century the likes of 'Gimme Gimme Gimme','Him and Her' and 'The In-Betweeners' show that anything goes and that comedy now probably pushes boundaries more than drama with regard to sexual matters.

36069 ::: Maria Bamford: Plan B (2010) ::: comedy ::: For most people, Plan B is nothing more than a fall-back, a pale imitation of the grand plan that might have been. Maria Bamford, as even casual fans will admit, is not "most people." There's no telling what her Plan A might have entailed (perhaps a one-woman rendition of "Grey Gardens?"), but Bamford's Plan B turns out to be a virtuoso, one-woman performance of a self-imposed stint in Northwoods exile. Filmed live at the Varsity Theater in Minneapolis, the film has both an intimate and theatrical flavor that may feel unexpected to some of Bamford's followers, but skillfully weaves together the most well-wrought portions of her repertoire. More focused than her usual stand-up routine, in Plan B Bamford takes on the story of her own Hollywood life, viewed from the much safer - and possibly much weirder - climes of Duluth, MN. Playing all of the characters, from her parents to her high school nemesis-cum-Target checkout girl, Bamford lovingly skewers her origins, reminding us that, while there may be no place like home, there's really no place like home.

36279 ::: Into the Shadows (2009) ::: documentary ::: Explores behind the big screen to meet the filmmakers, distributors and exhibitors who bring Australian films to us, the audience. The cinema was once a place where Australian culture thrived: audiences were educated, entertained and inspired by Australian stories, characters and landscapes. But now, alarmingly, out of the $945.4 million spent at the Australian box-office in 2008, only $35.5 million (3.8%) was spent on Australian films. Australian films are clearly not connecting with the cinema-going audience. Why? The film begins by tracing the history of Australian cinema, from the production boom in 1910-12, declining steadily to the barren post-war years. The film investigates the regeneration of the domestic production industry, championed by a dedicated few, in the late 1960s. Bruce Beresford, Phillip Adams and Alan Finney recount what the atmosphere was like in the 1960s and 1970s while distributors and exhibitors, Andrew Pike (Electric Shadows), Chris Kiely (Valhalla), Natalie Miller (the Longford) and Antonio Zeccola (Palace) reveal how important the independent art-house cinemas were in contributing to the re-birth of the Australian film industry. The closure of many of these independent art-house cinemas in recent years, typified by the demise of Electric Shadows in Canberra in 2006, exacerbates the difficulties that producers have in reaching cinema screens on a fair and equitable basis. Many exhibitors, past and surviving - question the efficacy of the industry's Code of Conduct, and talk with remarkable candor about unfair trade practices. Mainstream distributors, rarely seen or heard in a public forum, reveal some astonishing truths about the business of film. Meanwhile, the number of Australian films remaining unreleased continues to grow. But all is not lost. A new generation of Australian filmmakers continue to make films and continue to push at the boundaries of the cinema trade, finding their own way to get their films to the general public.

36293 ::: This Dust of Words (2008) ::: documentary ::: Even at a very young age, Elizabeth Wiltsee was different. Behind her wide eyes and gap-toothed smile lay a prodigious intelligence. With an IQ of 200, she taught herself to read by age four and was reading classical Greek by the time she was ten. At Stanford University, English professor John Felstiner discovered in Elizabeth a deep thinker with the soul of a poet, possessing 'an utterly uncommon voice and sensibility.' Decades later parishioners in a small farming community on the central California coast would find her sleeping in the doorway of their church, homeless and apparently mute. Despite her deepening mental illness and erratic behavior she soon became part of their town, spending her mornings shyly attending Mass, her afternoons in the library perfecting her own translations of ancient Chinese poetry. Then she disappeared. This Dust of Words, whose title is taken from Elizabeth's Stanford honors' thesis, is both a meditation on that final journey and the story of an uncommon kindness and compassion: an elegy for a life lived differently - strange, beautiful and haunting, right to the very end.

In 1920, the inaugural tour of the Park-to-Park Highway connected all twelve National Parks in the American West. They promoted tourism to the Parks and better roads for motorists. During the early days of the automobile, when cars got stuck in the mud, they were still being towed out by horses, and gravity-fed fuel lines caused problems up steep grades. Only the rich could afford travel by train or by horse to the National Parks, but the 1920 inaugural tour opened the door for the "everyman," with his newly affordable automobile, to visit them as well.

36352 ::: Falklands' Most Daring Raid (2012) ::: documentary ::: This gripping film tells the humorous yet heroic story of how a crumbling, Cold-War era Vulcan flew the then longest range bombing mission in history and how a WW2 vintage bomb changed the outcome of the Falklands War. On 30th April 1982, the RAF launched a secret mission; to bomb Port Stanley's runway, putting it out of action for Argentine fighter jets. The safety of the British Task Force depended on its success. But the RAF could only get a single Vulcan 8,000 miles south to the Falklands as just one bomber needed an aerial fleet of thirteen Victor tanker planes to refuel it throughout the 16 hour round-trip. From start to finish, the seemingly impossible mission was a comedy of errors, held together by sheer British pluck and ingenuity. On the brink of being scrapped, only three of the ageing nuclear bombers could be fitted out for war, one to fly the mission and two in reserve. Crucial spare parts were scavenged from museums and scrap yards - one vital piece found as an ashtray in the Officer's Mess. In just three weeks, the Vulcan crews had to learn air-to-air refuelling, which they hadn't done for twenty years and conventional bombing, which they hadn't done for ten. The RAF scoured the country for old WW2 iron bombs and complex refuelling calculations were done the night before on a Ł5.00 pocket calculator. With a plan stretched to the limit and the RAF's hopes riding on just one Vulcan, the mission was flown on a knife-edge; fraught with mechanical failures, unreliable navigation, electrical storms and ultimately not enough fuel. Of the Vulcan's twenty-one bombs dropped, only one found its target. But that was enough to change the outcome of the war...

36357 ::: Andy Warhol (1972) ::: documentary ::: Andy Warhol became the art star of the 1960s. This portrait was made in 1972, a peak year in the career of the artist. Throughout the film Warhol remains behind his mask as critics and followers describe him as voyeuristic, demonic, innovative, shrewd, and influential. Like several fellow artists of the 1960s, Warhol started out as a graphic designer and window decorator. By 1962 he had taken his artistic imagery directly from the shelves of the supermarket and daily tabloids. These early works include the Brillo Boxes and Campbell Soup Cans. Unlike his artistic peers, who elevated Pop imagery and techniques to "high art" and steadfastly remained there, Warhol took his irreverence to commercial and aesthetic extremes. As the filmmaker, Emile de Antonio, a longtime friend, reflects: "Andy understood that the real nature of American life today is publicity." Warhol's mass media tactics, his factory output of paintings, prints and films made him the most adventurous, most enterprising, and definitely the naughtiest member of the Pop movement. He died in 1987.

36455 ::: Comrades in Dreams (2006) ::: documentary ::: Four lives that could not be more different and a single passion that unites them: the unconditional love for their cinemas, somewhere at the end of the world. COMRADES IN DREAMS brings together six cinema makers from North Korea, America, India and Africa and follows their efforts to make their audiences dream every night. In doing so, the film dives into a set of fascinating lives where stories from the everyday and from the silver screen frequently merge into something magical. They live thousands of kilometres apart from one another and yet are chasing the same dream. In COMRADES IN DREAMS, we meet people whose lives revolve around cinema. One of them is Han Jong Sil, the North Korean with the unforgettable smile. She loves life - even one in which she is torn between propaganda, her own dreams and crop reports. She wants to improve the quality of other peoples' existence by showing them films. Vulnerable, lonely and full of longing, she dazzles like a comet above a sea of uniformity. Penny Tefertiller from Wyoming, USA, too, has dedicated her life to serving the community, channelling her considerable energies into providing a meeting point for the young and the lonely. There is a hint of missionary zeal about her as she tries to make her dream of the cinema come true - rather like Han Jong Sil, she is passionate and brimming over with good intention. Lassane and his friends Luc and Zakaria from Ouagadougou are self-confident and full of beans. They have risked everything to set up a cinema in Burkina Faso, one of the poorest countries in the world. There is truly a lot at stake for them: they have neglected their families to freefall into an economic adventure. And all to breathe new life into a rather run down open- air cinema. For Indian Anup, in contrast, business could not be brisker. His cinema tent is bursting at its own seams when he shows the latest hits from the Maharashtra region. His blessings of his precious film reels at the local temple and unerring instinct for a good film have made him the uncrowned "King of the Travelling Cinema". But the real show, of course, takes place outside of the cinemas. We get the chance to savour repeatedly the entertaining stories occurring in the orbit of these entertainment palaces. Tears shed for the Great Leader, cowboys at church, jealous wives and how the Titanic came to North Korea are just a few of the anecdotes shared with us, all told in loving detail. The unifying power of dreams brings our heroes close together. And the great quest for a little happiness is a constant leitmotif and reminds us that the best stories are not only told on screen.

36499 ::: Track 11 (2008) ::: short ::: On a long forgotten ex-Soviet bloc country computer still tied to the internet, in a dark back room at an isolated research facility is a file containing a CD of music.

This track was created as a mind control or psy-ops experiment long ago, and then lost during the breakup of the Soviet Union, like countless other weapons. It is accidentally released to the world. If music can soothe the nerves, like playing classical music on the drive home from work in order to decompress, and certain paint colors can set a mood, why can't the opposite be true? Why can't an image or a color - or a sound - cause a form of dementia? Can a song drive the listener insane?

36590 ::: Now-Is Now (2015) ::: animation ::: NOW-IS NOW is the prestige opus of the artist Tonda Wellmer and represents the pinnacle of his career as an illusionist. He creates the illusion of the existence of a show event and a hype that is due to it. The images are courting a stage project that does not really exist in this way. Tonda Wellmer uses emotive images to sell the illusion of a dream, life, spirit and youth movement. Psychedelic cartoon sequences, highly detailed surreal animations and emotive realism alternate with shots of celebrating people and meme-like word segments. From the sparkling Mandela to transforming objects and crystal beings, such as 2-dimensional scenes and surreal landscapes, the film shows a variety of fantastic scenery. The sequences where celebrating people are shown are designed in an acuminated shape to make the experience of the project more tempting. The almost intrusive polarizing style means criticize the commercialized music industry in a hidden way, since the design of the film partly reminds of commercially manipulative ads from television and contradicts the basic idea of the project, which is to donate 51% of all profits in the emotional perception as a compromise between capitalism and altruism. The observer experiences a change between comforting imaginative and emotionalising impressions, a selfless basic thought and the pointed depiction of the sale of this idea, as well as the suggested lifestyle in function of a sale. Tonda Wellmer leaves socio-critical motifs out and shows only positive emotions and impressions.Tonda Wellmer said this about his work. "The goal of illusion is to make the one thing that seems impossible to an individual possible." For copyright reasons Tonda Wellmer's film has never been released. Rumors say that during a PC repair data were stolen. The thieves published the first film in forums and this led to a duplication of the work. The visualizations are a compilation of complex animations from the motiongraphics scene and are mainly researched on Vimeo.

Her family shattered by war, all Azra has to hold on to is a hand-made postcard of the Opera House, which her mother sent from a detention center in Australia.

These fragments within the story add a personally poetic layer to the underlying politics of exile and belonging. Both emotionally troubled, Maggie and Ramona struggle to deal with the stranger.

An unexpected meeting of two strangers provokes an emotional journey into what it means to belong, leading to a surprising and ultimately moving revelation. Maggie, a professional woman in her 30s, is in an overnight train, when her solace is rudely disrupted by a 14-year-old Albanian girl who silently demands her seat. Next morning, as Maggie prepares to greet her estranged mother, Ramona, she realizes that the girl, Azra, has followed her. To Ramona's incredulity, Maggie invites the stranger home, and there, Azra begins to reveal a deep secret.

On the verge of his retirement, Pete receives a call from an acquaintance of his somewhat estranged best friend, Joey. Pete learns that Joey is facing surgery for cancer. Days later, Pete is paid a visit from Joey's pal and Pete is given a package as he learns of Joey's demise. Joey has sent Pete the urn containing his ashes, 3 letters, money and the plea that Pete fulfill his final wishes. Instead of peaceful retirement, gardening and dreaming of a more creative life, Pete instead finds himself on the road again in the old Chevy. This road trip is a true adventure and each letter, a clue as to what will happen next. From the grave, Joey dictates Pete's next steps and ultimately changes the course of his life. First stop is Toronto where Pete is to find Joey's estranged wife, Betty and deliver some money that Joey has left for her. He also has to inform her of Joey's death. Having been abandoned by Joey while expecting their child, Betty is not at all receptive to Pete when she discovers him at her doorstep. Betty's best friend Selina invites Pete in where he breaks the news and meets Betty-Jo - Joey and Betty's daughter. Now a forty year old woman, Betty-Jo has had a string of unsuccessful relationships and unsteady jobs. Betty-Jo has the fire and adventurous nature of her estranged father but is also filled with anger and resentment towards the man who deserted her. With his first task completed, Pete climbs back into his Chevy to continue on the road towards Cape Breton where he is to scatter his old friend's ashes. Betty-Jo asks to hitch a ride to Oshawa but once aboard the car announces her true intentions - to travel with Pete all the way to Cape Breton. In a move to try to get to know her father better, Betty-Jo convinces Pete to allow her to come on his journey and together they unravel more secrets to the past than either of them expected. Peter McGraw and Joe Mayle have been best friends their entire lives, although they haven't spent much time together in recent years. Their lives include hopping in Joe's brightly painted early model Chevy Impala convertible to move from their Cape Breton home to Toronto when they were twenty-five - forty years ago - to make their fortunes. Ditching Joe's then pregnant wife Betty, they left Toronto soon after and headed west to Vancouver when that Toronto life didn't pan out as they anticipated. Just hitting the milestone of retirement from his longtime job as a mail carrier in Vancouver, Pete starts to reflect on his life, he contemplating writing his memoirs. That reflection takes on another element when he learns that Joe has just died from lung cancer, and that Joe, through a set of detailed instructions conveyed within sealed envelopes each to be opened at certain points during the process, requests him to carry out his last wishes. These wishes include fixing up that Chevy Impala, and driving back to Cape Breton to scatter his ashes in the Atlantic Ocean, but not before stopping in Toronto to provide one of those sealed envelopes to Betty. The meeting with Betty will be a difficult one as they have not seen each other since he and Joe abruptly left Toronto without word to her, and as she blames Pete for Joe leaving her the way he did. Betty and Joe never reconciled, and Joe only met his daughter, Betty-Jo, once when she was a child. As such, Betty-Jo, whose own life is currently at a crossroads, sees her father as a deadbeat who abandoned her and her mother. This entire process becomes one of closure for Joe, Betty and Betty-Jo and their family life. But is also becomes one of closure for Pete and his life as he becomes aware of certain issues from his own past as envelope after envelope is opened and their contents read.

36631 ::: Service with a Smile (2005) ::: comedy ::: In 2004, director Ken Axmaker, Jr. enraged and excited the local independent film scene with A Waste of O2, a short film that explored racial stereotypes and recreational violence among young adults with innocent faces. The director introduced his vision at Indie Memphis in October 2004, and he has since been featured on Pickle TV and at independent showings in the Midtown area. It's 2005, and Axmaker is back with his first independent feature, Service With a Smile. This gritty, dark-comedy quest combines the adventurous spirit of the Odyssey with the bizarre and twisted reality in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Axmaker focuses on Memphis venues and unique characters living in the Mississippi Delta to create an original movie that traces the downward spiral of Bill, a struggling baby boomer. Bill needs AA, the Betty Ford Clinic, and a visit with Sigmund Freud, as evidenced by his tour of taverns in downtown Memphis. His escapades are interrupted after he injures his back when trying to carrying his favorite hooker upstairs after a night out on the town, and his inability to functionally patronize bars leads him to seek out another means of entertainment. As Bill medicates himself using pain killers with vodka chasers, he enters into a chemical paranoia that encourages him to start a war with Midtown locals. Bill begins to plot revenge against all of those who are obviously inferior to his chemically enhanced brain. He sees every civilian as an enemy, but he ignores the obvious dangers and perils that lie on his course. Service With a Smile explores the sexually stereotypical roles played out by those in society, and we see the ripples of each person's influence as Bill journeys through the movie. Bill, the modern macho-man, must outwit the cop, pay the pimp, bargain with the hooker, ignore the voices in his head, and punish the tofu eating curs who clog up the nation's roadways with bicycles. He drinks his way through several confrontations until he meets Helga, a Gothic telemarketer who uses her sadistic talents to torture male clients into submission and commission. Helga always meets her quota. Service With a Smile gives in to the urge for retaliation against extremists in society, and demonstrates the checks and balances of life that prevent us all from becoming unbalanced: Bill solicits the hooker, but he cannot complete his task because of erectile dysfunction. He tries to harass a telemarketer, but he chooses to mess with a psycho who sobers him up with pure fear. After trying to reap the benefits of Farm Aid, he destroys the tools of his trade. Fortunately for us, Bill has enough chemical persuasion to act out our fantasies and suffer the dire consequences as we sit back comfortably (and safely) from afar, watching the chaos unfold.

Many images are of undeniably breathtaking beauty - ranging from early examples of nineteenth century Japanese studio photography to military propaganda photos from the thirties, from victorious American press images to amateur snapshots across several decades.

Two fictitious characters lead us through the film - an English woman and her deceased Japanese partner, Hiroshi. 4,500 exceptional photographs from the past 150 years form the basis for this film, in essence made entirely with stills; a cinematic experiment balancing delicately between documentary and fiction.

The unlikely cell mates form an equally unlikely friendship based on their mutual support for each other. Molina later admits that he has fallen in love with Valentin. What Valentin does not know is that Molina has been co-opted by the prison warden and the secret police to befriend Valentin so that he can get information on and report back to them about the leftist group with which Valentin is working.

Gay narrates the story of an imaginary movie to the other, in spite his bad interest. He narrates the stories of two different movies mixed with his own life story.

36941 ::: Surviving the Wave: A Thailand Story (2005) ::: documentary ::: Anobservational documentary in the tragic wake of the tsunami, through the eyes of TV producer Amanda Murray, who was caught up in the catastrophe while holidaying in Thailand on the paradise island of Koh Lanta. The film is a personal journey that gets to the heart of the story behind the news - following a handful of Thais and foreigners who survived this disaster of biblical proportions. We see what the future really holds for these survivors once the cameras have gone and people's interest at home has faded. Then as the long-term recovery process begins to unfold we hear how their feelings swing between optimism and despair. There has been much coverage of the huge scale of the Tsunami and its aftermath; this film looks at the tragedy at a much more intimate level, putting a human scale on sometimes incomprehensible statistics. The film moves between the neighbouring islands of Koh Lanta and Koh Phi Phi on the west coast of Thailand where the aftermath of the disaster threatens the survival of both communities but in entirely different ways.... When the Thai government turns down the offer of international aid, declaring it can look after its own, the film discovers what kind of support Thai people can really hope for. Both islands rely on tourism to survive but in Lanta, where the journey begins, it looks like the tourist season is over before it even started. Lanta is right in the middle of the disaster zone, but despite being in the path of the wave it was spared much of the horrendous devastation that was suffered by Phi Phi. Lanta's confirmed death toll is 9. In a matter of days the island is back on its feet - but the streets are empty. After a mass exodus in the first 24 hours the international media and foreign offices do nothing to help the situation and despite local protests the advice is to stay away. How will the locals survive and what will the government do to help them? When should the tourists return? What can the locals do to get them back? And are there more alternative ways of providing aid? Jow, a bungalow business owner, is indebted to Pete, a British tourist who nearly died in the wave. He helped to rescue her then stayed on with a few other foreign tourists to help rebuild her business. Butch, a diver who lives in Lanta and finds himself out of work, turns his attentions to the local fisherman and through direct donations from his home in Belgium he gets the first boats back in the water, without any government assistance - it's a joyous occasion. Then hundreds of foreign business owners pull together for a press call on the beach with a banner declaring "Welcome Back to Lucky Lanta" - spirits are high but it's a desperate attempt to bring the season back to life and by the end of February hope is fading fast. The tourists aren't coming and Jow, who has yet to receive any government compensation has to resign herself to an uncertain future. For Phi Phi, made famous by "The Beach" it's a tragically different story - this massively overdeveloped but beautiful island was decimated, with the loss of life reaching over 1500 and the islanders immediately evacuated. Here is a story of displacement and opportunism. Many of the survivors have lost family and friends and most have lost their businesses but nearly all want to return as soon as possible. But with the infrastructure destroyed and a lack of clarity around the government plan for the rebuild of Phi Phi, the islanders are forced further apart as they search for new ways to make a living. The opportunity for making money on Phi Phi is renowned and rumours abound about how the rebuild might take shape? Will the big businesses move in? Will the islanders ever be able to go back? What is being done to support these people who've lost everything? And when will Phi Phi re-open for business? On Phi Phi we meet Birds, sorting through the few things he has left in his shop. His family were lucky, they are all alive but he's lost all his assets. He loves the money he can make there but soon starts to realise that it could be over a year before he can return. Leaving his family behind in Phuket he heads off to the other side of the country to try and start again. Julie and Ann lost everything and are in severe debt. They camp out at a friend's house in the mainland of Krabi waiting for government handouts through word of mouth, but the days of waiting for depressingly little compensation soon get to them and when they are continually accused by government officials of not being from Phi Phi they lose heart and move to Bangkok to stay with family. We see them in the hectic city, looking lost and donating the little money they have to a charity to buy coffins for the friends they lost. Satana lost her mother, sister, 2 cousins and many of her friends as well as her brand new business. Unlike the others at first she cannot face going back and is unsure about ever returning -- but as the weeks go by she can begin to imagine a life for herself on Phiphi again. In Phuket at a Muslim ceremony, 40 days after she buried them, she says goodbye to her mother and sister and the next day she returns to Phi Phi for the very first time. Despite the desperate circumstances of many the characters, the tone of the film is uplifting. This is a story of survival and of people's humanity - and, as the survivors cope with their horrific circumstances, their desire to move on and unwavering spirit continually shine through.

Claudia's parents Monika and Karl have been living on Elba for quite some time, and Claudia has been there quite often. But eight years ago, however, she suddenly left the island and went to Germany. Claudia never told anyone the reason why she suddenly left in such a hurry: she was in love with the thirty eight--year-old Marco, a highly-respected surgeon. They had planned to marry -- but Claudia's world was then turned upside down when she met Marco's younger brother Nicola. He fascinated her from the very start, and the two of them spent a passionate night together. A short while later she realized she was pregnant, but didn't know which of the brothers was the father -- whereupon she left the island without any explanation. When Claudia arrives back on Elba, she and her daughter travel straight to the hospital to visit her seriously-ill father. To Claudia's total astonishment, the assistant senior physician at the hospital turns out to be none other than Marco! Claudia's and Marco's reunion is heartfelt, yet overshadowed by Marco's insis-tence on an explanation for Claudia's precipitous departure eight years pre-viously. A sudden and serious deterioration in her father's health takes prece-dence over any thoughts of a frank discussion, however. Shortly after Claudia's arrival, her father's heart finally stops beating for ever. It's very consoling and reassuring for Claudia's mother Monika to have her daughter and granddaughter with her at this very difficult time # and Claudia naturally intends to stay on Elba with her daughter for a while longer. This also gives Marco and herself the opportunity to rediscover the intimacy they formerly shared. Marco has now accepted that Claudia is reluctant to talk about the past or about the identity of Sabine's father. He feels attracted to her more than ever before. Old feelings re-emerge in Claudia too -- and she is especially happy that her daughter really likes Marco. When Marco suggests that she and her daughter could come and live at his place, she doesn't hesitate long before accepting the offer. Monika supports her daughter's decision. But then, one morning, Claudia's past catches up with her: Marco's brother Nicola # who has spent the past few years traveling the world as a photographer # sud-denly appears on the doorstep with his fashion-model girlfriend Martina. He's totally stunned to see Claudia and her young daughter standing before him. Marco -- quite unaware of his younger brother's affair with Claudia all those years ago -- is really pleased that his younger brother has returned after he also left the island eight years previously. Nicola had broken with his brother back then because he blamed him for the death of his girlfriend # the girl had been fatally injured in a traffic accident caused by Nicola. Marco had been unable to do save her life. But now Nicola is ready to face up to the truth, and to be reconciled with his brother. Claudia is firmly determined not to deceive Marco a second time, despite being very much aware of inner turmoil when she sees Nicola again. When her daughter organizes a boat excursion with the two brothers, however, a decisive event occurs: Marco is suddenly called away to the hospital at short notice, and so Nicola, Martina, Claudia and Sabine take the boat out alone for the snorkeling trip. Shortly after their first snorkeling sortie there's a tragic incident: Sabine is hit on the head by a swinging boom on the boat and falls overboard, unconscious. Claudia is paralyzed with shock, but Nicola reacts instantly: he jumps into the sea and saves the young girl's life. Claudia is deeply moved and grateful when she sees her daughter in Nicola's arms. Sabine now looks up to Nicola as her hero too. While Claudia is increasingly realizing just how much Nicola really means to her, and is once again torn between her love for him and Marco, Nicola's girlfriend Martina packs her bags and promptly leaves the island: Nicola has grown far too distant from her ever since they arrived on Elba. Meanwhile Claudia keeps on taking refuge at her mother's place, hoping to work out what she really wants by having discussions with her. Monika persuades her to finally tell the truth. Claudia plucks up all her courage, and confronts the deeply shocked Marco with the events of eight years previously. Even though she still can't admit it to herself, she knows at the bottom of her heart that she's already made her choice # she's in love with Nicola! Claudia's confession leads to a serious altercation between herself and Marco, who finds it extremely difficult to forgive his brother for deceiving him back then. He gets hit even harder, however, when Nicola tells him that he is in love with Claudia. The two brothers realize in desperation that they have become rivals. Marco is the one who finally backs down, because an important fact can no longer be disguised: Marco is alone in the knowledge that he is sterile and cannot have children, so therefore Nicola must be Sabine's father. The next morning Claudia and Marco take their leave of one another at the airport # Marco is going to fly to Argentina to accept a research post in Buenos Aires. They embrace each other warmly one last time # then, with a heavy heart, Marco walks away from the great love of his life, and towards a whole new chapter in his existence.

37241 ::: Wars (2001) ::: short ::: Daily routine in an empty restaurant car on a long-distance train. Deserted tables, a slow-moving staff. The waiter leans at the window, unhurriedly cleaning his fingernails. The cook and the waitress bide their time patiently. Gestures of waiting. Communication no longer seems necessary, as the well-coordinated routine functions smoothly without it. Only the train's clattering is audible, a monotonous and soothing sound. This monotony is echoed in the forced lethargy of the restaurant-car staff. It seems to be a ghost train, a train without passengers. Then the tableau comes alive as if wakened by an inaudible signal. The three figures begin to sweep and wipe: The car must be cleaned thoroughly before it reaches the terminus. "Space is being destroyed by the train, and only time remains." This statement made by Heinrich Heine could be used as a summary of Josef Dabernig's film. While the countryside flies past the window, the train never stops. The surroundings disappear behind it. At the same time, the atmosphere of languor in the restaurant car is tangible. Boredom dominates the inactivity and is not completely dispelled by the sudden start of cleaning. The protagonists never really practice their professions: They neither cook nor do they serve food. Precisely framed black-and-white images laconically depict the restaurant car's Formica charm as a moving microcosm: A service job as scheduled monotony. This is an entertaining study of movement and inertia. (Andrea Pollach)

He lived and witnesses a period of great socio-political turmoil, the rise and falls of nations and the decaying fabric of society. The Asian subcontinent was going through the most troublesome period in its history, whilst internationally the geo-political landscape was transforming from Imperial rule to the emergence of the 'Nation State ideology.' Dr Iqbal witnesses the moral values of community, tolerance and kinship eroding and being replaced by ethnic lines of social divide, he saw the advance of capitalism and the race for political and economic control taking over at the cost of humanity and equality.

However this film is not a visualization of Shikwa but an attempt to make us reflect on our selves and our contribution to society, and how accountable we all are as individuals to the problems faced by the collective.

An academic overachiever, she studied linguistics and contemporary dance in Heidelberg, Germany, before enrolling in film school in Berlin, where she met Nigerian-born director Okpako in the nineties. After living in the United Kingdom for a short period, Auma Obama eventually moved back to Kenya to mentor a young generation of community activists, social workers and other ambitious young men and women who lacked her privileged education and training, but were nonetheless determined to make a positive contribution to their society. Okpako has always been interested in questions of identity, affiliation and belonging. Although she frames her film as a biographical portrait of Obama, she goes much further, providing a layered historical context and discussions of post-colonial African identity from a feminist perspective. Okpako collects testimonies almost exclusively from women, echoing the African tradition of women as chroniclers of oral history. When coupled with these accounts, Okpako's use of archival footage - filmed during colonization for an entirely different purpose - offers a new reading of history and the present. Obama is also the daughter of a charismatic man who fought for the liberation of his country and participated in the shaping of the first years of independence. She witnessed his hopefulness and rise as well as his disillusionment and demise, coming into adulthood as her country - and continent - fell prey to despotism, corruption and poverty.

37397 ::: Miss Polly (1941) ::: comedy ::: Mrs. Minerva Snodgrass heads up the town's Purity League and is so good at imposing restrictions of keeping the girls and boys apart that there hasn't been a marriage in the town in over two years. Her next-door neighbor, Miss Panadora Polly, aptly named based on what she lets out of the box later in the film, is doing her best to promote the romance between town-nerd Eddie and Minerva's daughter Barbara. Miss Polly also does a lot of reflecting on what-might-have been regarding her own life reference romance, or the lack thereof. She and her handyman Slim Wilkins and (described in the dialogue) "housekeeper and companion" Patsy try sampling some of the spirits in the cellar, as Miss Polly is looking for the one that makes one nervy and romantic, that she is sure is there according to family legend.

Minerva also gets an accidental swig of the 'Joy Juice" and it is also no pretty sight to see Kathleen Howard making a move on Slim Summerville.

37399 ::: Jeff Wall: Retrospective (2007) ::: documentary ::: Jeff Wall is one of the most important and influential photographers working today. His work played a key role in establishing photography as a contemporary art form. Jeff Wall describes his recent work as "near documentary," a plausible account or a report on real or imagined encounters. Wall usually spends weeks painstakingly recreating these encounters and taking many pictures, from which he selects his final image in a critical process. His photographs are mainly displayed as backlit Cibachrome transparencies. In an interview with Sheena Wagstaff, Chief Curator at the Tate Modern, he said: Evaluation of quality is the core of the pleasure of the experience of art; the simultaneous pleasure of enjoying something intensely and of recognizing that it is a good work. I always judge my picture - daily, hourly, all the time. Even though it's disappointing to have to say "that one is not good", or "not as good as that one", it is still a pleasure to go through that process and experience a work afresh. Nothing has been as destructive to the condition of art as the idea that qualitative judgment is unimportant, and that art is important for cultural reasons. Art can only be important if it is good, because if it is good, it pleases us in ways we don't anticipate and don't understand, and that pleasure means something to us even if we can't specify what, exactly.

The Panda-Syndikat, a group that technically should not even exist, is lead by a rogue German Commander by the name of Mitternacht (a mysterious SS officer who, as far as the administration is concerned, does not exist himself), and he is closing in on a large piece to the puzzle. Mitternacht leads a party to capture the artifact from Bianca Yonac, the artifact's pledged protector, who promptly packs it up and sends it to "relatives" in Bucharest who are also pledged to protect it. The artifact comes into the hands of her nephew, the young Kazimierz Yonac, who brings it to England with him in 1940,. As the film continues, it is suggested that the terrorist cells of the Panda Syndicate are believed to disintegrate with the fall of the Third Reich. Mitternacht is apprehended in 1945, convicted of conspiracy to commit crimes, crimes against peace, war crimes, and crimes against humanity, and sentenced to death by hanging. It is revealed that the artifact remains in the hands of Kazimierz, who immigrates to America in 1949. Over fifty years later, the focus of the film shifts to James Reeder (Jim to his friends), the hero of our dark comic-adventure. Reeder awakens, showers, and jumps in his truck, taking off for work. It is revealed that the artifact remains in the Yonac family, in the hands of Kazimierz's niece, Rachel, who is a Professor of Psychology with a University in Northern New Jersey. The film shifts to a classroom, where she is giving a lecture on dissociative fugue for an Abnormal Psychology class (her class is seen to be quite lively and inquisitive). As she is leaving, three of her students pester her to discuss topics for research papers. After she finally escapes her students, Rachel runs into a colleague of hers who is researching some items that were passed down to her as Executrix of her Uncle Kazimierz's estate. It is further revealed that her Uncle's passing was sudden and unexplained, occurring while he was on holiday in Buenos Aires. Lastly, through their conversation the audience learns that Rachel has just purchased an historic home, with the intentions of restoring it; however, she is having some difficulties due to the dilapidated structure and wiring of the house itself. James Reeder is on the job, fixing some faulty wiring for the professor they are attacked by a group that they can only identify as the Panda Syndicate. As Reeder struggles to understand the riddles of the Panda Syndicate, he comes to realize that our world is teetering dangerously on the edge of disaster (orchestrated by the mysterious Sorcerer Xiongmao and those who follow him) and that if the Panda Syndicate gets their hands on the artifact, a magical talisman of great power, which has somehow made its way into the hands of the young Professor Rachel Gehret, hell on earth will be unleashed. With the help of his best friends Ganaraj "G" Raman and Artie Bannister as well as an odd assortment of supporting characters, Reeder will take on the Panda Syndicate in Crazy Elk's most elaborate production to date.

37488 ::: The Pigeoneers (2008) ::: documentary ::: "The Pigeoneers" is an homage to the bravery of homing pigeons who saved thousands of lives in combat in the Great World Wars. Their achievements embodied the attributes of service, endurance, loyalty and supreme courage. Here, their memory is evoked by Colonel Clifford A. Poutre, Chief Pigeoneer, U. S. Army Signal Corps Pigeon Service, 1936-1943. Poutre enlisted as a Private in 1929, soon after, became a Pigeoneer stationed at the 11th Signal Company, Schofield Barracks, Hawaii until 1936. Poutre was then assigned to the lofts at Fort Monmouth, N.J. in the fall of 1936, working under the keen tutelage of Civilian Pigeoneer, Thomas Ross, a Scotsman who was one of the foremost pigeon experts in the world, and after his death, took over as head of the Pigeon Breeding and Training Center. Acknowledged the world's outstanding military pigeon expert, Poutre is credited with having streamlined the U. S. Army homing pigeon training and services to keep pace with the latest developments in army aviation. Poutre has taught his homers numerous tricks unprecedented in pigeon history-to be ready for day or night messenger duty, to return to a mobile pigeon loft which moves ten miles away after the pigeon departs and to carry a canary piggy-back from New Jersey to a loft on the rooftops in New York City. Poutre also acted as a public relations person where pigeons were involved. This led to meeting Nikola Tesla, (1856-1943), the great scientist and inventor who had developed alternating current (AC) and who designed and developed many of the devices for the production and distribution of same. Tesla's Coil (1891) and AC Motor is used in most electric devices today. Tesla was also the innovator of wireless transmission, with a radio patent filed in 1897 and at 72 years old, received a patent for a flying machine that combined elements of the airplane and helicopter. Poutre recalls fondly his friendship and visits to Mr. Tesla at the Hotel New Yorker in the 1930's. Poutre dispells the longstanding myth that Nikola Tesla was not a "nut" and didn't keep "filthy city pigeons." Sure, Tesla may have fed or rescued an injured or lost pigeon but Poutre reminds us that that was a mere act of kindness not madness. Mr. Tesla was an avid homing pigeon fancier and the two enjoyed engaging in "pigeon talk". Poutre discarded the old "starvation" method of training pigeons in favor of a system of "kindness". Poutre's experiments have proved that homers will now come home because they want to, and not, as in World War 1, because they were hungry. Poutre handled and cared for numerous World War I Hero Pigeons such as "Long John Silver" and "The Kaiser", the famous captured German war pigeon. Poutre also reminds us of the tremendous efforts of the British Pigeoneers, Lt. Col. A.H. Osman and Mr. J.W. Logan, Esq., and the British War Hero Pigeons during the Great World Wars. Poutre kept army birds in training by racing them against civilian pigeons. One of the great Army racers was "Always Faithful", 1935 winner of a 720 mile race from Chattanooga, Tennessee, to his loft at Fort Monmouth, New Jersey, in the time of 15 hours 39 minutes and 9 seconds. An average speed of 1343.8 yards a minute. This tremendous win earned "Always Faithful" the Hall of Fame Cup and Medal from the American Racing Pigeon Union in 1935. Poutre tossed the last bird in 1957 before the close-out of the Army Pigeon Service at Fort Monmouth, N.J. Colonel Poutre retired in 1960 as Commander, Signal Corps Supply Agency, Tobyhanna, P.A., after 31 years of loyal military service. Join Colonel Clifford A. Poutre in "The Pigeoneers", slow down, think, and remember. In this debut film, director Alessandro Croseri delivers a stunningly beautiful ode to combat pigeons and their pigeoneers. The documentary follows Col. Clifford Poutre during the final years of his life at age 103 and explores his innovations in the training of homing pigeons for day and night combat missions during World War II. Drawing on a rich array of archival footage, the film tells the story of Poutre's thirty-one years of military service as former Chief Pigeoneer of the U.S. Army Signal Corps, his successful rejection of "starvation" methods of training in favor of a system defined by "kindness" and care, his pigeons' remarkable feats both in combat and in civilian races, and his notable friendships with the likes of Nikola Tesla, himself an impassioned pigeon handler in the later years of his life. Through a collection of intimate interviews, black and white photographs and footage, and the nostalgic tunes of Glenn Miller, the Pigeoneers serves up a one-of-a-kind tribute and heartfelt exploration of the complex, interdependent relationships between humans and the birds we so-often overlook.

37552 ::: Saving Monsignor Ryan (????) ::: documentary ::: Monsignor John Augustine Ryan (1869-1945), advocated to the Catholic Church and the Federal Government that every worker is morally entitled to a "Living Wage". During a time when "robber barons" were accumulating massive wealth, workers were living in poverty. A number of his social reforms were eventually incorporated into FDR's New Deal. Ryan's best known contribution, was his argument for a minimum wage. The economic scales of justice started to balance out, until the 1980's. Trickle down economics created a windfall for the corporations while minimum wage remained behind the cost of living. Today we have the same disparity in wealth for the first time since the Great Depression. America needs the moral ideals of Monsignor Ryan once again. It worked before. Why the resistance now? Can America withstand a growing disparity in wealth without another catastrophic economic event the Monsignor Ryan once sought to prevent? A life devoted to the church. A man devoted to the human race. Monsignor Ryan only wanted to see every worker earn a decent living wage. This is a biographical documentary about Monsignor John Augustine Ryan (1869-1945), who wrote A Living Wage in 1911 during a time when workers lived in poverty and robber barons became extremely wealthy. FDR created the New Deal with the influence of Msgr. Ryan's message of A Living Wage.

37561 ::: I Shot Billy the Kid (1950) ::: western ::: Another in the series of Don Barry starring films (who NEVER used Don 'Red' Barry as his billing except in his series of Republic westerns from 1940-44 and the serial "The Adventures of Red Ryder"), financed by Robert L. Lippert and produced by William Berke all as A Donald Barry Production in the late 40's and early 50's, this one pretty much follows the semi-inaccuracies and myths found in the vast majority of the films about Billy the Kid, while adding a narration - a trend found in many B-westerns of this period evidently under the mistaken impression it would add some class to the proceedings. It didn't. And having a 38-year-old actor play an outlaw who died when he was 21 gave Barry an opportunity to darken his hair to nearly black and pull out, what appears to be, the forelock hairpiece he used for the Red Ryder serial in 1940 to make him look more like the character as drawn by Fred Harman. It didn't make him look much like the real Billy the Kid, though.

37572 ::: Steve McQueen: The Essence of Cool (2005) ::: documentary ::: Friends, co-stars and admirers of actor 'Steve McQueen (I)' (qv) - including first wife, actress and dancer 'Neile Adams' (qv), and third wife, model 'Barbara Minty' (qv) - discuss his life in relation to his movie career. His screen persona was one where women loved him, in part because of his piercing blue eyes, and men both wanted to emulate him and be his buddy. Despite having screen presence even in early bit parts, he didn't start to hone his craft of acting until he was accepted into the Actor's Studio. In what some consider his breakthrough movie, he took the sure thing of a meager paycheck instead of taking a percentage of the movie's profits, as he thought the movie would be a commercial flop. That movie was _The Blob (1958)_ (qv). Although he made a name as the rebel loner and an action hero in the television show _"Wanted: Dead or Alive" (1958)_ (qv) and smaller parts in movies such as _The Magnificent Seven (1960)_ (qv), his status as such, but in a movie starring capacity, was solidified with _The Great Escape (1963)_ (qv), despite having problems on that set. That persona continued in such movies as _The Cincinnati Kid (1965)_ (qv), _Nevada Smith (1966)_ (qv), and _The Sand Pebbles (1966)_ (qv), the latter for which he was nominated for an Oscar. He was convinced by Neile to do a more debonair role, and campaigned and won the lead role in _The Thomas Crown Affair (1968)_ (qv). _Bullitt (1968)_ (qv) was the first movie produced by his own production company, and despite what is considered a weak story, it stands as one of McQueen's most iconic movies for its visual style, and the groundbreaking car chase scene. He wanted _Le Mans (1971)_ (qv) to be the most important movie in his filmography because of his love of car racing and his want to portray the actual Le Mans race accurately. It was during this period that his personal life, which was being overtaken by drugs and freewheeling actions such as infidelity, began to unravel. The second phase of his professional and personal life began with _The Getaway (1972)_ (qv), where he met second wife, 'Ali MacGraw' (qv). This period actually was the beginning of the end as he became disillusioned with the business, especially as he began to realize he was developing health issues, which would ultimately take his life. A chronological look at the life and work of Steve McQueen (1930-1980), from a loveless childhood, to early stage work, a TV series, and nearly instant stardom in films. Talking heads, who include two wives, his son, directors, fellow actors, and friends, discuss his style, competitiveness, instinct for the camera, and artistry. The trajectory is one of growing success until women, drugs, and a failed film ("Le Mans") end his marriage and nearly end his career. We watch an actor who combines personal magnetism, extraordinary athleticism, and hard work emerge as the gold standard in action films - an actor commanding the screen more with movement (and those eyes) than words.

37600 ::: American Bellydancer (2005) ::: documentary ::: American Bellydancer is an 88 minute documentary ostensibly about the history, extreme proliferation, feminism and misogyny of the ancient art form known today as Bellydancing. But it is also about tension between America and the Middle East, the dreams of young girls, the dialectic between art and politics and one man's attempt to reinvent his well-known turf in a failing music industry. With numerous tangents, the film takes a journey with Miles Copeland, former manager of the Police and Sting and founder of IRS Records, which was largely responsible for much of the new wave music of the 80's. His father, who was largely responsible for the creation of the CIA, brought his family to live in Syria where Miles first encountered a very different culture. It made sense that after IRS Records and Sting, Miles represented some of the biggest musical acts in the Mideast. American Bellydancer tracks his effort to bring this music deeper into American culture, in spite of our "issues" with that part of the world. In Riverdance, the music becomes an engine for pure spectacle as carefully synchronized dancing is put in front of it. With this in mind, Miles began an international search to form a troupe of Bellydancers with the improbable mission of bringing Middle Eastern music to the heart of America. If successful, this would be the first nationally touring troupe of Bellydancers in American history. American Bellydancer tracks the following; an audition process that spans America and beyond, an escalating battle between Miles and the American Bellydance community where some see him as the Anti-Christ come to destroy the sanctity of the art with crass commercialism, a chronicle of the hardships of making a living as a bellydancer, a sudden trip to Bali to try out some of the dancers at a World Peace Music Awards, broadcast to a billion people in Asia in response to the terror bombings there, an American road tour with the huge rock show, Lolapalooza. All this brings the dancers themselves to a transformation from an intimate world to an enormous one where they are expected to shill products, essentially live in a small bus and sacrifice their individual styles to the greater good of group choreography. As to whether or not mass exposure is good for a grass roots art form, or not, that will be left to the viewer.

37626 ::: River of Fundament (2014) ::: drama ::: In 2007, Matthew Barney and Jonathan Bepler began a new collaborative project inspired by American author Norman Mailer's 1983 novel Ancient Evenings, set in pharaonic Egypt. The project was conceived as a nontraditional opera with a series of one-time-only live acts performed across the American landscape. The film River of Fundament combines documentation of these three live acts with scenes set in a reconstruction of Norman Mailer's brownstone apartment in Brooklyn Heights. Barney and Bepler's script reimagines Mailer as his own protagonist who reincarnates three times in three different bodies by magically entering the womb of his wife Hathfertiti. With each incarnation the undead Norman emerges from a river of feces that runs beneath his Brooklyn Heights apartment and enters his own wake. Imagined as a memorial gathering attended by figures in the New York literary world, the wake takes place inside the Mailer apartment as it is ferried down the river. Guests eulogize Mailer and offer condolences to his widow. As the evening wears on, the wake gives way to a scene of carousing and revelry, in which characters from Ancient Evenings play out their incestuous struggles for power and their insatiable appetite for pleasure as the music gains momentum. Each incarnation of Norman joins the wake for a time, haunting the guests and challenging the ancient undead figures of gods and demigods. He endures two rebirths but fails to be reborn a third time, thus ending his attempt to ascend to a higher, more powerful state. The powerful pharaoh Usermare evokes the spirit of Ernest Hemingway and engages Norman's three incarnations in a struggle for dominance. In a parallel narrative, River of Fundament replaces the body of Norman with the body of an automobile in the American landscape. The automobiles' story begins with REN, a live performance staged at a car dealership in south Los Angeles. A 1967 Chrysler Crown Imperial undergoes its first death and is prepared for rebirth as a 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. The second performance, KHU, unfolds along the River Rouge and Detroit River. KHU brings the Chrysler back to its birthplace Detroit, where it is dismembered and melted in five monumental furnaces.

At the conclusion of BA, the automobile is further transformed into the 2001 Ford Crown Victoria.

Always at the right place at the right time, we found ourselves with the couples, the families, the courts, Rosie O'Donnell's wedding to Kelli Carpenter, the protestors, and of course, the state Supreme Courts decision to invalidate the marriage licenses. With Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger delivering on his promise to veto legislation that would have given same-sex partners the right to marry, the need for people across the nation, and most importantly California, to see Pursuit of Equality is evident. We have spoken with leaders in the national and local government, as well as leaders in the LGBT community, and all agree that this film has the ability to open and educate the minds of those who do not understand the issue and the right for everyone to be treated equally. We are forever thankful to the numerous couples who invited us into their homes, and to the extraordinary City Hall staff for their cooperation in the making such of an eye-opening film. Thank you!.

By the end of the journey, however, it appears that several themes do emerge as Americans reflect on the events of the last several years and anticipate the upcoming election year. The sincerity and thoughtfulness with which people responded makes this film more than a travelogue or slice-of-life documentary, rather it is a thought-provoking look at who Americans are and what they instinctively know. Wojahn's personal journey is woven throughout the film, yet he resists influencing the responses of the interviewees, including their interpretation of the question, "What does America need?" It is a journey worth taking with him.

Many surgeries, two titanium rods, and a few years later, Alex is miraculously on her feet. Alex insisted on meeting Jason and Amber. It was after that meeting that Black Cloud began. The idea for this film started out with simple curiosity. Who are these people who have had an immeasurable impact on my life? How can two people I don't know have affected the rest of my life in such a profound way? I began to wonder, How do they do this? How do they see death and destruction with such frequency and come out the other end with their sanity? What does it feel like to save a life? How do they cope with this lifestyle? How does it affect their views of humanity? Are they cynical? Are they optimistic? I have so many questions and I have no doubt the public do, too. I want to use this film to help answer them. Black Cloud is an unprecedented, boots-on-the-ground look at the medics of Austin-Travis County EMS. At work, at home, and in personal interviews, this film will create portraits of these people who save lives every day. This film is a gesture of gratitude, a gift to the EMS community who has done so much for Alex and I.

37959 ::: Portraits of Chicago 2015 (2015) ::: documentary ::: 'Portraits of Chicago' is a quick overview of Chicago's History, Architecture, Culture and Scenic beauty. It introduces viewers to these things in ways that are pleasing to people of all backgrounds, and nearly all ages. Children like the show because of its visual effects, which are not so much computer generated as collected for a specific purpose over many years by a still photographer. Now the show is a combination of images dating back to 1978, and video going back quite a few years. Sound effects are minimal, as a subtle background classic accompanies the History Segment, but the other three are music videos, with no speaking, only images, videos, music and titles telling the story. Visuals are tightly wrapped. Chains of photographs share common traits, and dissolve into each other with a kaleidoscopic effect. The right combination of that, with the right music, can make your spine tingle. The conclusion is accompanied by the Moody Blues, and the timing has been worked out to a high degree of precision. The show is informative in a summary way, giving newcomers lots of things they will recognize. It opens up interest for further attention. Chicago natives love the show, and it's ideal for use on educational TV world wide. It is easy to translate the narrative as no lip synching is needed. 'Portraits' is a family show, with a good, positive, artistic presentation of the City of Chicago.

37977 ::: The Life and Death of Gotel Botel (2009) ::: musical ::: Nati Ornan, an unknown musician and failed lover, lives in a grey world. During the day he is a genuine loser who lives with his mother and plays the part of a vacuum cleaner in a children's play. At night he is the leader of a rebellious Indy band that is overlooked by the establishment and the public. His pitiful personal and professional life propels Nati into creating a dark and narcissistic split personality known as Gotel Botel. Gotel brings Nati greatness: he avenges his enemies, creates a successful underground show and conquers the heart of Ayelet, Nati's secret love. As expected of an Indy band, its band members are just as weird. Hila, his good friend and show manager, dreams of hitting the charts. Tal, the band's guitarist, is torn between his love of music and his wife who demands that he grow up. Noa is the anarchistic cello player who goes on a rampage of urban terror. Gotel makes Nati's dreams come true, but Nati isn't all that sure this is a good thing. Nati and Ayelet's relationship deteriorates as a result of Gotel's megalomaniacal and violent nature. The show becomes a hit but is commercialized and Nati starts losing his grip on reality. Nati and Gotel head to battle, but this time they are against one. Nati must choose. Will he remain loyal to his art or will he sacrifice himself for success? The film tells the sad story of the world of commercial art, in which the greatest danger is the loss of one's identity. It is a world which loses its color from day to day, where weird characters are the only hope for individuality. The movie is inspired by the anarchism of its characters and thus creates a wild circus of diverse genres. The movie consists of a fictional script embedded with genuine actors, locations, situations and archives based on three years of filming the actual band. As the character of Gotel takes hold of Nati, the fiction takes hold of the documentary reality until they both merge into one solid half-truth.

38107 ::: 'Tis Autumn: The Search for Jackie Paris (2006) ::: documentary ::: "'Tis Autumn: The Search For Jackie Paris" is a feature documentary about a great but unheralded jazz singer that explores the very nature of what it is to live the life of an artist--any artist. Filmmaker Raymond De Felitta examines the life of cult favorite jazz singer Jackie Paris, but at the same time he might well be exploring the life of any artist in any discipline, too many of whom share the same fate that Paris did: the explosive debut followed by the years of ups and downs; the constant hope that success, though out of reach, is around the corner; the private tragedies that grow out of artistic frustration; and the final, self-inflicted wounds which all too often cause the once promising to descend into bitterness and chaos, a prelude to vanishing completely. Working with rare found footage and new interviews with jazz legends such as Billy Taylor, George Wein, Mark Murphy and Ruth Price, as well as the final concert footage and last interviews Jackie Paris ever gave -- De Felitta constructs an emotional mystery story which asks the question: who or what is to blame when a great talent goes from sensation to footnote during their life span? In 1991, the director, Raymond De Felitta was listening to a Jazz station and heard a singer by the name of Jackie Paris. Entranced by his style and technique, De Felitta began researching Paris; he learned Paris had opened for Lenny Bruce, was a favorite among Ella Fitzgerald, Nat Cole and Sara Vaughn. However his research abruptly ended when he read in The Biographical Dictionary of American Music, that Paris died in 1977. De Felitta thought that was the end of the story but one night in March of 2004, he was reading the New Yorker magazine and saw an advertisement listing Paris' comeback at the Jazz Standard. Stunned, he wondered where had Paris been all these years, what had come of his life and why had a singer of this talent fallen into such obscurity?

The visual style and editing rhythm of the film, supported by peaceful yet expressive music, reflect the contemplative simplicity and clarity of the artist's paintings.

(based on true events) Sabina, a quiet, introvert and not particularly popular girl, who stays in school after hours to play Chopin, is being put down by the new German teacher Robert, after which she goes home and commits suicide for reasons unspecified. The class is in shock. Suddenly everyone was fond of Sabina and they all look for a scapegoat to put the guilt on. The evident choice is Robert, a gruff, strict and demanding professor but devoid of any educational skills, who expects his students to speak to him only in German and uses Thomas Mann, his life and his writings as a constant reference in his class. Giving his students low grades and putting them down on every occasion he has, he is soon "the Nazi" whose conduct drove Sabina to despair and this is a good enough reason to walk out of his lessons, organize protests when he does not attend the funeral, and throw the smoothly functioning institution into turmoil. Robert, the new German teacher, is aloof, authorative and demanding. He lectures on Thomas Mann and expects his pupils to rise when he enters the room. He might even be a Nazi, the dismayed teenagers speculate. When his student Sabina takes her own life shortly after being reprimanded by Robert, the teacher is considered to be cause. Instantly, vengeful youth rebellion stirs among the benches. In tones of chilly blue, Rok Bicek captures the fierce power struggle between teacher and students in a nuanced and genuinely thought-provoking way. Many films of recent years have been set in classrooms, but few have been as intense, well played and succinct as Bicek's directorial debut.

And as angrily as these words sound when combined into a curse, is how Antonia behaves. Because she is pregnant, and Victor, who slept with her, is getting married in a few hours to Blanca. Incensed, and looking like a black angel of revenge, she searches out her rival, already in her white wedding robes, to confront her with this fact. Her neighbour Gabriel, a film student, has agreed to record everything on video, to soothe Antonia's fury. When Blanca learns, in front of the camera, that her future husband has betrayed her well and proper, she hired Gabriel at short notice as a cameraman for a wedding video of a quite different kind. Blanca finds her husband having a shower, drives him out into the street and exposes this Latin lover, not just verbally. "We have over a million sperm and you have just one egg to be fertilised", the womanizer argues, driven into a corner out in the open.

You can always only work on one file at a time and don't see all the others in front of you, you are, so to speak, loyal to one file.

The jester, finding his jokes falling flat, performs acrobatic feats to no effect; juggling with balls, no result; the king won't be pleased. The jester then gathers chairs and builds them up and outward. Ah! The king is at last interested, wondering why they don't fall over, and gets down to see. The jester, taking a pair of bellows, blows the chairs and they fall in a heap at the king's feet. The jester next puts the chairs away and tickles the king, who kicks him for his frivolity; then, getting down from his chair to again kick the jester, kicks air, for the jester has vanished, quickly appearing again out of a large box and laughing at his master, who again seats himself with a frown. Finding all his efforts to please are not appreciated, the jester summons a lady to his aid. Now the king is all attention. Then taking three stools, the jester places them before the king, helps the lady to stand on the center one, pulls her dress, which falls to the ground, displaying her as a Grecian model. The king now forgets his indigestion and watches, the figure. The jester produces two staves, which he places under the outstretched hands of the model, then with a few passes hypnotizes his subject; he now takes the center stool from beneath the sleeping beauty, leaving her suspended on the two staves. After one or two more passes, he removes one of the staves, leaving the subject with only the support of the other, to the astonishment of the king, who is still more surprised when the beautiful model throws him a kiss. The jester now replaces the stool under the feet of the model, awakens her and helps her down. The king sits on the stool, takes the model in his arms and is about to kiss her, when to his intense disgust he finds himself embracing his jester, who, linking his arm in that of the king, leads him off.

38231 ::: The Electro Wars (2010) ::: documentary ::: It is unquestionable that the Electro genre has reached a broader American audience in the last two years. I am determined to document the scene and its participants, show the inner workings of the genre and what it will eventually evolve into. The notion to document this genre was conceived in 2008 after reading a blog post with the same title 'Electro Wars' featured on the Hipster Runoff. The post was a sarcastic outlook on electro/house artists in the United States and Europe, and their impact on mainstream music here in the United States. I found a substantial concept within the snarky commentary and decided to assemble these "electro soldiers". It seems that every other day a new remix is popping up on the blogosphere, how does this affect marketing for other independent artists? Do they welcome the remixes or oppose them? Is music overload possible? What will eventually happen when all these budding producers grab a hold of a Pro Tools tutorial and develop their own remixes week in and week out? Will the remix itself become obsolete? Will original tracks have to step up to the forefront rather than recede into the background? Themes of this nature are explored in the film.

The Web conforms and welcomes this new geography of the world that upholds itself on concepts that crash with archaic power structures that still govern our lives: this new map knows little of border lines, does not stop to think about clashes of civilizations, ignoring old work ways and the power relations originated. Behind the screen we will see new faces, different from those created by the mass media where spoiled brats play to break security codes and to create corporate-unmerciful virus. These faces introduce new life style options, new job choices beyond from the big corporation, and joined together by the fight for Free software that, like every other language, does not belong to anybody. Their philosophy brings together different new and inclusive visions, where races, genders, creeds and ages melt within this medley of information without an owner. Come to the world of Hackers of the XXI Century, you may be one of them. "In Search of Hackers" is a documentary that intends to open or to "hack" our preconceived ideas about what is a Hacker, and introduce us to what the new century and the new millennium has prepared for us; the new ethical and moral standpoint that this new technological revolution has to offer and that manifests itself in our daily life from different parts of our mental geography and various places of our society.

As it chronicles the rise and fall of the far-right British National Party, it gives a fascinating insight into the inner workings of the "BNP family" and the working class disillusionment with the Labour party that fuelled the BNP campaign.

Griffin is a controversial figure, with a conviction for inciting racial hatred, who nonetheless wields considerable support. Following the candidates and their respective teams right up until election night, the film takes you behind the scenes of both campaigns and as the election draws nearer follows the action as violence escalates on the streets.

While celebrating her most recent win at the Phi Beta Lambda fraternity house party, Jude meets sports journalist Ryan Morris. The two quickly form a romantic bond that must be hidden from the rest of the world.

38493 ::: Sidewalk (2010) ::: documentary ::: SIDEWALK chronicles the lives of primarily black homeless book vendors and magazine scavengers who ply their trade along 6th Avenue between 8th Street and Washington Place in New York City. By briefly comparing those book vendors with the history of book vending along the Seine in Paris, the film speaks to the efforts of North American and European societies to rid public space of the outcasts they have had a hand in producing. The film takes us into the social world of the people subsisting on the streets of New York by focusing on their work as street side booksellers, magazine vendors, junk dealers, panhandlers, and table watchers. The sidewalk becomes a site for the unfolding of these people living on the edge of society in order to give us a deeper understanding of how these individual's are able to survive. It also becomes a site for conflicts and solidarities that encompass the vendors and local residents. We followed half dozen vendors for most of this past decade. By the end of shooting the film, their lives had taken a myriad of routes - one was hired by a local University to run a speakers series, another left to find herself working at a 7/11 convenience store, a third was deported to Jamaica where he struggles to survive without family, friends or a livelihood. Most of our characters have remained on the street continuing the daily struggle to scratch out a living on what the rest of us throw away. In this context, our main objective is to show HOW the sidewalk life works today. How do these people on the street live in a moral (and sometimes immoral) order? How do they have the ingenuity to do so in the face of exclusion and stigmatization on the basis of race and class? How does the way they do so affront the sensibilities of the working and middle classes? How do their acts intersect with a city's mechanisms to regulate its public spaces?

38916 ::: Return to Afghanistan (2007) ::: documentary ::: Initiated in July of 2001, Pashtun filmmaker Vida Zaher Khadem's documentary about her brother's return to their homeland of Afghanistan takes on deeper meaning than she ever suspected when the male-dominated society of her Taliban-controlled country - including her own family - objects to her role as an independent filmmaker. Vida's brother Baktash was born in Afghanistan and educated in America. After training as a pilot, overseas, however, he begins to feel as if he has lost his roots. When Vida decided to return to Afghanistan to explore their family tree, even her own uncle tried to dissuade her from overstepping her gender boundaries and assuming the role of director. Later, while traveling to the remote villages of her family tribes, Vida was frequently forced to wait in the car while the men in her crew captured their footage. A mere four weeks after returning to the United States, the film crew was witness to one of the most ferocious terrorist attacks in modern history. Realizing that since the perpetrators of the 9/11 attacks were based in Afghanistan the American authorities will likely seek her crew out for questioning, the filmmakers immediately make copies of all of their footage and quickly contact the FBI - who in turn use that footage to learn more about the political and social structures in Afghanistan. Shortly thereafter, Jawad Wassel, Vida's mentor and cinematographer in Afghanistan, is murdered while attempting to complete his own film FireDancer. In the aftermath of that tragedy, Vida sets aside her own film and convinced producer John C. Roche to help her finish FireDancer, which would subsequently become Afghanistan's first ever submission to the Academy Awards. Return to Afghanistan is not just the story of a man's return to his roots, but a far reaching meditation on one woman's quest to remain faithful to her family while railing against a society governed by rules she detests, and attempting to maintain her balance while caught up in a war between the East and the West. "Return to Afghanistan," which premiered at the U.N.

39008 ::: Chasing God (2004) ::: documentary ::: Narrated by award-winning comedian Dawn French ("The Vicar of Dibley"), this thought provoking film addresses a subject matter rarely tackled: Why do humans believe in a higher power? By interviewing scientists, atheists and religious leaders from diverse faiths, this groundbreaking documentary explores the motivations of humankind to believe in something bigger and more powerful than itself. Travelling the world and asking poignant questions of its subjects, Chasing God is able to look at the relevancy of God in today's harsh world. Today, we see the very existence of humanity being threatened. Human beings are at war with each other, while weapons of devastating destruction exist that can wipe out whole countries. Violence is being mooted as a solution to the need for peace and protection, and many people feel powerless to influence outcomes. New prayer and meditation websites and groups are popping up daily in a desperate attempt for divine intervention. It has always been true that when we human beings are afraid or in pain we reach out for a power greater than our own. Perhaps never before in the history of the world has the sound of God's name been so loudly heard from people of all cultures and religions at the same time. Beliefs about God have divided humanity, yet this documentary seeks to highlight a paradoxical unifying principle that may well lie beyond the divisive interpretations of God. While science cannot prove or disprove the existence of God, ultimately it is either a universal truth or a mass delusion. In the absence of any verifiable proof, what we are then left with are personal experiences. This documentary spotlights the most controversial yet elusive figure in recorded history. No one else has been the subject of such hotly contested debate, disagreement, and wars.

In Six Man towns, the schools are vital community centers and virtually everyone attends the games, adopting the players as their own family. Three Way School is typical of many rural Texas schools with one exception-there is no town. Three Way sits alone in a field surrounded by thousands of acres of cotton. There are no viable towns left in the Three Way district, and the school has consolidated five rural school districts since 1945. Now, Three Way School itself is slowly running out of students, struggling to keep the doors open in the face of shrinking revenues and increasing costs. After educating many hundreds of rural Texans for more than fifty years, Three Way is graduating its last senior class ever, two girls and six boys, ending generations of community pride and continuity. In Central Texas, Aquilla has been slowly losing population for decades. Before World War II, Aquilla had banks, restaurants, department stores, a spa, two schools and a railroad that carried people and cotton from the plains to the Texas coast. Today, only 136 people remain to support a school, a cotton gin, a post office and the tradition of Six Man Football. But at Aquilla High School, seven seniors who have played and fought together on the sidelines since kindergarten have a dream-to put their town on the map and make a name for themselves. Every week the team just gets better and better, and they see the promise of the playoffs on the horizon. Despite a crucial mid-season loss, they finish second in their district and make the playoffs for only the third time in nearly 30 years. But now they face a team that embarrassed them horribly early in the season. Can they shake the ghosts of their earlier defeat and go all the way? And can they win what really counts? Can the towns of Six Man, Texas keep their schools open and continue to play the one game that unifies and defines their small communities?

But it also plays a political role: voodoo is linked to the communal movement now fighting for recognition in Haiti. And voodoo's rhythms are the driving force behind a new wave of Haitian popular music led by such groups as Boukman Eksperyans. Shot in Haiti in August, 1991, just two weeks before the brutal coup which overthrew democratically elected president Jean-Bertrand Aristide, Voodoo is a sympathetic portrait of a tragic nation. Featuring dramatic footage of voodoo ceremonies and possession, the film seeks to reveal the truth about a much maligned and misunderstood religion.

I think the uncovering aliens is a wonderful show. Despite what everyone is saying about them wanting more publicity then finding the evidence, I find this show to be very evidential and it seems that they really do devote their lives to finding out the truth for not only themselves but us. I find them very compelling and willing to do what they have to do to find out the truth.

39100 ::: "The Allotment with Charlie Dimmock" (2012) ::: reality-tv ::: In a light-hearted but nevertheless educational look at the fashion and passion of 'growing your own', Charlie Dimmock takes an inspirational journey with two groups of allotment plot holders through their challenges and achievements during an English summer. Each of Charlie's rising gardening co-presenters, Carina Birrell and Jonny Lee Kemp, champion one group of 'allotmenteers' and work with them to produce the best produce in totally contrasting conditions of landscape and soil, trying to win Charlie's 'Best Produce Awards'. They also develop a strong rivalry as they overcome personal challenges set by Charlie and each other. The series covers the period from May to October during which ground preparation, seed sowing, crop tending, the excitement of witnessing growth and the progress of the produce is recorded alongside the background of the human stories of the diverse range of allotment holders. This adds significant human interest to a series, which is light-hearted in its presentation but contains the humour of friendly rivalry between the plot holders, and between Jonny and Carina. Each episode features informal growing tips through discussion and interviews with the village plot holders, as well as formal growing tips by Charlie for 'grow your own' enthusiasts. The series also provides inspiration for those who are considering growing their own for the first time, whether in city window boxes, kitchen gardens or on Parish allotment sites. The thrill of pulling up their first homegrown potatoes, the disappointment of seeing failed growth, the challenges of disease, bugs, heat and soil quality are all part of the learning curve. Unusual challenges such as 'rogue badgers' also provide food for thought as these valiant 'allotmenteers' share their many thoughts, aspirations, challenges and disappointments with the series presenters. Charlie Dimmock openly shares her own valuable knowledge - and at times learns from the allotmenteers whose 'local tips' ensure that the sharing of information and skills is not always one-sided! The viewer is therefore taken through a TV series that brings out the quality of country life, rediscovers forgotten values and yet supplies an exciting and vibrant set of entertaining programmes, which provide a positive example in 'back to basic lifestyle' to both individuals and communities.

Very few hip hop fans and critics remember that there are 4 elements of Hip Hop. Rapping, DJing, Graffiti and Dancing. In the midst of the gangsta movement that catapulted Hip Hop into the next realm, several of the elements seemed to fall on the wayside.

39118 ::: Raul the Terrible (2006) ::: documentary ::: Raul Castells was born in the city of Che Guevara. He admires Che's convictions. Raul is a walking, talking force of nature.

39119 ::: Le peuple migrateur (2001) ::: documentary ::: This documentary follows several species of migratory birds over a four year filming period. These birds travel several hundreds if not thousands of miles toward the equator in the autumn, and make the return journey to their higher latitude summer homes in the spring, always taking the same route, using the natural compasses of the universe, the stars, to find their way. Some species, like the arctic tern, even fly from pole to pole. These long and often torturous treks are a matter of survival, to live in a hospitable climate and find sources of food. With the exception of migratory penguins, travel over oceans is especially difficult as the birds have little refuge unless there is something floating on the water, such as a ship, on which to land. Otherwise they must continue flying until they reach land. Some will not survive the migration due to predators, including man, illness or injury. Although the migrations themselves are done as a community, once the birds reach their respective summer and winter homes, they disperse into family units. And every continent is affected by the migration as every continent is home, at least part of year, to a species of migratory bird. The cameras of Jacques Perrin fly with migratory birds: geese, storks, cranes. The film begins with spring in France and the migration to the Arctic; the flight is a community event for each species. Once in the Arctic, it's family time: courtship, nests, eggs, fledglings, and first flight. Chicks must soon fly south through Europe and North America. Bad weather, hunters, and pollution take their toll. Then, the cameras go south over the Sahara; South Africa is the winter destination. The search for food, good weather, and a place to hatch young takes this annual cycle of stamina across continents and oceans. There is a spare narration and a few titles; for the most part it's visual, a bird's eye view.

His father, being a great sportsman, the youngster possesses similar tastes and now feels that he is in a position to accompany his elders on their hunting expeditions. Much to his disappointment, however, his daddy and grandfather start out duck hunting, leaving the little chap at home. Even their promise to take him some other day fails to cheer him up. The little fellow feels that he has been treated unjustly, so decides to go anyhow, and we see him stealing from the house with his little rifle over his shoulder and following the older folks to the hunting ground. The huntsmen are now near a large pond where they are shooting wild duck. Little Jay steals along on the opposite side and hides behind a stack of straw without being seen by his relatives. His father takes aim and fires at a bird, but misses his shot and the bullet penetrates the bundle of straw, striking the boy crouching behind it. The men, upon hearing his screams, hasten over to investigate, and great is their horror when they discover the lifeless form of little Jay lying on the ground. The distracted father is inconsolable in his terrible grief and becomes hysterical and shows signs of losing his reason. Finally with the aid of some men they carry the child home to his heartbroken mother, who knew nothing of his having left the house. When the motionless little form is laid on the couch the sorrowful parents are indeed a piteous spectacle, and so terrible is the father's grief that the other members of the family become alarmed over his mental condition, and hastily summon a physician to administer to the unfortunate man. By the time the doctor arrives the patient is a raving maniac; oblivious to all that has just transpired, and is hurried away to a sanitarium. A year has now gone by and another little baby has come into the sorrowful family, and the mother thinking that its presence may have a soothing effect upon the mind of her husband goes one day to the sanitarium with her father and the little one. They meet the invalid in the yard, but much to their disappointment he fails to recognize them, nor does he pay the slightest heed to the new baby. Finally we see the same youngster six years later when he has grown to be the exact duplicate of little Jay, and the good people, always anxious to have the invalid once more in their midst, try again to bring him back to his senses by making him believe that little Jay is really among them again. The grandfather therefore goes to the asylum dressed in his hunting costume and makes the patient put on his hunting outfit also; he then brings him home where everything about the house wears the same aspect as on the fatal day some six years before. The first thing that the invalid recognizes upon entering the room is Jay's large picture, and immediately he shows signs of regaining his memory. He then asks for the little fellow and the mother brings in the youngster dressed exactly like Jay. The shock is so great that it has the desired results and the cloud lifts from the unfortunate man's memory and he is under the impression that it is really Jay whom he is fondly caressing. One day, becoming suspicious that there is something strange in it all, he follows his wife when she and her little son go out to the cemetery to visit Jay's grave. They are greatly surprised when the husband and father comes upon them, and after reading the inscription upon the tombstone he is convinced of the true state of affairs. The sorrowful man then gives vent to his feelings, after which he starts for home with his little family, giving thanks to God for the presence of the loving child to fill the place in his affectionate heart left vacant by the death of Jay.

Party planner Dylan Marer has been given the opportunity to impress his client Hugh Hefner. He will be putting on the annual Playboy Masquerade party at the famous mansion. This year Hef has asked Dylan to create something unique and different. In a stroke of genius Dylan decides to the theme of this year's bash will be based around the provocative French queen, Marie Antoinette. Over the course of the show Dylan's concept is put to the test. Will it go according to plan? Will his host and 1500 demanding Hollywood guests be satisfied. For Dylan and his team, success begins with researching his chosen subject. In the late eighteenth century the young teenage Queen, Marie Antoinette, attended masquerades in Paris as lavish and decadent as any in history. There are many differences between these parties and the Playboy Masquerade. Modern technology, for example, enables today's pleasure seekers to enjoy the very latest in laser light shows, amped up music, chilled cocktails, and VIP transportation. But the similarities to the eighteenth century masked parties are surprisingly evident. For a start, there is great music, provocative dancing, exquisite food and the finest champagnes. There are even VIP areas for those who want to afford more privacy. But most of all, it's the beautiful masks that enable guests, past and present, to adopt a secret identity for the night. Emboldened by the wrong assumption that her identity was hidden, the Queen would rub shoulders with commoners and aristocrats alike; drinking, gambling and enjoying secret encounters. But, such was her beauty and grand style that most there knew who she was. While Marie Antoinette might have been simply enjoying what most teenage girls do today, her partying ways eventually turned people against her and fanned the flames of the French Revolution, resulting in the overthrow of the monarchy, and her execution. But while Revolutionary France remembers her as an immoral spendthrift, people like Dylan Marer look to her for inspiration. Her beauty, fashion sense, and ability to charm have left a lasting effect, none more so than tonight at the Playboy Mansion, where forty semi-naked, Marie Antoinette look-a-likes, celebrate the charismatic queen. The young queen's masquerades were a hot-blooded attempt to escape the frustrations of a loveless marriage. The Playboy Masquerade Party is a return to her world for modern day party lovers - a provocative escape from the shackles of their daily lives. Tonight, everyone here will Party Like the Queen of France.

In American law, corporations have the same free-speech rights as individuals--in that respect, corporations are 'persons'. But corporations have an inherent advantage over the average citizen: they have much more wealth at their disposal. Thus, corporations are able to buy much more media (especially TV and radio) time to get their message across to the public, dominating the political debate. Also, media corporations have been merging into fewer (and larger) entities which are better able to control the flow of information to the public. Because of their size and power, they can prevent unfavorable coverage of their activities in the media outlets they own.

39379 ::: Gamemaster (1997) ::: adult ::: Hot-wire your mind and make your wildest fantasies come true. Play with cops, robbers, marines, leather studs and denim clad villains. There's an ambitious setup here and a very clever way of linking scenes, but it gets screwed up a bit by seriously crappy acting (even by porn standards) and a seeming inability by the director to cut to the chase. It starts out with devastatingly cute Tommy Cruise (maybe he's the one that's been having an affair with Kyle Bradford) being rather playfully assaulted by Peter Wilder and Dino DiMarco. Burly leather god, and former Mr. Drummer, Kyle Brandon lumbers by and scares away the baddies. Far from being grateful, Tommy is pissed. You see, he explains, "it's just a game," and disappears. In his place on a barrel in the alley, Brandon finds a card advertising gamemaster.com. Intrigued, Brandon goes home and checks it out, but not before he strips down to his unflattering CK briefs. It takes a long time for Brandon to get into his scene. And while the filmmakers didn't have to build a fake web site to be used in the movie (though I bet they could get people to do it very cheaply these days), anyone with a DVD player is web-savvy enough to know that you'd never go to a web site and have some unseen hand type out 'Welcome to Gamemaster' on the screen. I know I'm being picky here, but it wouldn't be an issue if the director didn't spend an inordinate amount of time showing you the way to get into the site. But with the preliminaries done, and with the donning of a suspiciously handy pair of virtual reality glasses, Kyle is in. He chooses the S/M Leather feature (big shock) and finds himself chained to an enormous X with drooling top man Carl Erik waiting for him. Erik is truly a sight to behold in full leather garb - rock hard muscles and an even harder cock that he has trussed up in a series of leather straps. To my surprise, big and burly Kyle Brandon is a natural bottom and really seems to get pleasure out of being tied up and dominated. Leather and S/M really isn't my thing, but I know enough about it to know that while these two are hot together and get into their toys, it isn't particularly extreme. It seems more like dress-up. But for those with vanilla dreams of leather and tit clamps, the scene will work like a charm. When it's over, we see suit-and-tie office guy Carl Erik on the phone to his buddy Cutter West to tell him about this great site he was just at. Erik should never be given lines other than 'tighten that hole,' since his thick German accent makes everything he says incomprehensible. Erik tells the blonde, slightly balding Cutter about the great new Gamemaster site. After showing us how to get into the site again, and with the use of another pair of VR glasses, Cutter is in. He chose 'Military Maneuvers' where he plays a sergeant who challenges Private J.T. Sloane to a marksmanship contest. Once a lot of dull conversation and dead spots is gotten past, Cutter and J.T. go at it. I've always been a fan of J.T., whose body and look only seems to get better. It was also quite nice to see a thickly muscular guy like him take Cutter's big snake up the ass. J.T. calls up his friend Kyle McKenna, who still seems to be in bed, and tells him about what a great time he had a gamemaster. Kyle decided to check it out. Again, we get to see how to get into the site, but we're coming upon the highlight of the movie, so it's OK. Dark and rippling Kyle chooses 'Cops and Robbers' and he's the cop. He comes home after a long day of work and is surprised by tattooed sex pig Cole Tucker burglarizing his home. In a very sexy and semi-believable way, Cole forces Kyle to strip and gets off on his humiliation. We all know that Cole is a born top man and he doesn't disappoint here as almost splits Kyle in two with his enormous cock and a big, greasy black dildo. In the worst bit of acting in the flick, Cole is then a nerdish computer geek who spends a long time calling his pal, the smooth and boyish bottom Tommy Cruise. Cruise chooses 'Back Alley Thrills' and this one truly cuts to the chase. After being cornered by Peter Wilder and Dino DiMarco, they roughly rip off Tommy's clothes and get right to the fucking. Tommy squeals in delight, or maybe pain, as he takes Dino's enormous salami in the caboose while Peter rams his dewy lips with his king size cock. It's certainly not the best porno out there, but there are definitely reasons to recommend - namely Tommy Cruises' bottom boy enthusiasm and Cole Tucker's tough, top man attitude. All they really need to do was cut out the dead air between and before scenes to make it something truly hot. But then again, that's what the fast forward button is for.
39380 ::: "Stuck" (2016) ::: documentary ::: Each year, 15 million girls are married before the age of 18.

39381 ::: Fear of the Flesh: The Making of 'The Fly' (2005) ::: documentary ::: We open with stories of one man's brilliant idea to remake the science fiction classic, _Fly, The (1958)_, into a whole new entity. The end result was David Cronenberg's _Fly, The (1986)_ that revolutionized the genre. Nearly every aspect of the filmmaking process is covered in this mammoth documentary, and in great detail. Sadly, the only thing missing here are some new interviews with Cronenberg himself.
39382 ::: Un pogrom en Buenos Aires (2007) ::: documentary ::: Pogrom means persecution, "hunting" of Jews. In the beginning of the last century, a lot of Jews arrived in Argentina, running away from the attacks they suffered in Europe. In 1919, during a workers conflict known as The Tragic Week, a pogrom was held in Buenos Aires, in the Once neighbourhood. Of that event, it's been said that "it was done by some well-to-do boys who went out to hunt the kikes". The film starts with the questions that the director himself, whose grandfather arrived in Buenos Aires in early Twentieth Century, asks himself about that event and its implications. And about the causes and consequences of its scarce spreading, about the distorted facts on the number of people who died and about the internal ideological disputes inside the Jewish Community. The director finds a few stories, allusions in a song, or in a film. But he knows, that in view of the little which is known and remembered, one has to listen, reconstruct, ask, even fictionalize. And thus bring together a film-research that one follows as a tale of painful, controversial and unfair mysteries.

39481 ::: The Wall Street Conspiracy (2012) ::: documentary ::: About the Film The collapse of the US banking system in 2008 had been forecasted years before it happened by the people in this film. But no one wanted to listen. Instead our country fell apart in the Fall of 2008, the worst financial collapse in the history of Wall Street. What is naked short selling: It is selling stock in a public company that you do not own and you never deliver to the buyer. Honest people call this stealing. This is done daily by many big banks for themselves and/or their customers. How can this happen in today's environment? 30 years ago stock physically changed hands in person between a buyer and a seller on Wall Street. Today, it is done electronically. In many cases, the stock is sold electronically but never delivered. In essence, our system has trillions of dollars of stock IOU's that will never be collected. What is the scope of the problem? It is the belief of many experts and others that trillions of dollars have been stolen from hard working Americans by selling them counterfeit stock that does not exist. This unscrupulous conduct still exists today. What are the consequences to average Americans of naked short selling? Naked short selling: a) steals money from hard working Americans by selling them counterfeit stock; b) destroys good public companies that have products that can make all American lives better; c) has destroyed millions of jobs by destroying these same companies who's stock is being manipulated. Naked short selling has led to turmoil and unnecessary volatility in our markets worldwide by creating counterfeit shares which have destroyed companies and left wrecked lives in its wake. Big banks and their clients have been incentivized to kill companies rather than build them up as a surer way to profit but these actions also have led to massive disorder in exchanges around the world, threatening our entire financial system. In 2008, rampant fraud on Wall Street created billions of counterfeit shares in the stock market, bond and futures markets, and the credit default swap market, helping to cause the catastrophic collapse of the entire world's economy. Known as naked short selling, the fraudulent practice caused the collapse of hundreds or even thousands of American companies, cost our country countless jobs, decimated retirement funds, and even flooded the market with fake mortgages. The Wall Street Conspiracy chronicles the stories of a small group of activists who worked tirelessly to expose the corruption in our financial markets. Coming from all walks of life, some were entrepreneurs like Overstock CEO Patrick Byrne and Eagletech's Rod Young, others were activists, like Mark Faulk, Darren Saunders, and Dave Patch, economists like Susanne Trimbath and Robert Shapiro, and lawyers Wes Christian and John O'Quinn. They tried to educate investors, Congress, the SEC, and even the President about the imminent danger of allowing this financial terrorism to continue, but their cries fell on mostly deaf ears. This is a story of rampant greed, corruption, and the failure of our government to act to stop it... before it was too late.

39494 ::: Kemosabe Version 1.0 (2007) ::: short ::: Kemosabe version 1.0 utilizes deconstruction to examine and comment on two American icons, "The Lone Ranger" and his faithful sidekick "Tonto" through reassemblage. The representations of Native Americans in American media have historically proven problematic because most opinions regarding Native Americans were formed through individual's exposure to these inaccurate portrayals, and it has been these inaccurate portrayals which have confined Native Americans to exist solely in the past and not as a contemporary people within the American psyche. The montage re-presented in Kemosabe version 1.0 illustrates how American media, intentionally or not, did and does negatively and inaccurately portray Native Americans, whereas the subtext of Kemosabe version 1.0 illustrates how the "Lone Ranger" has subjugated "Tonto" as he consumes and assumes "Tonto's" "Indian-ness".
39495 ::: Verbotene Filme (2014) ::: documentary ::: In a fortified, explosion-proof bunker of the German Federal Archives Vault, 2000 film reels made of celluloid and the highly flammable nitrocellulose, stay protected and meticulously organised in two rows of 1000 reels each. They are the silent witnesses of a bygone era when more than 1200 films were produced under the Nazi regime, depicting a wide array of diverse topics ranging from chest-thumping musicals to anti-Semitic propaganda and melodramas about euthanasia itself. Up to the present time, in Germany, there still exists an ongoing censorship for about 40 films of the Third Reich that were made under the supervision of Joseph Goebbels' ministry of propaganda. Even though some can be concerned as absurd and blatant in our modern societies, they are deemed as dangerous and can be viewed only in special screenings under the presence of an expert, because they can still establish stereotypes to unaware audiences. Without a single doubt, some of those films are actually very well made, yet, disturbingly effective with their minute hints and insinuations cleverly hidden throughout the movie, proving Goebbels' belief that film not only is the means to educate the youth but also the most important part of propaganda. With the help of distinct experts and German film historians, this documentary attempts to provide its viewers with enough stimuli on the debate about the controversial subject of censorship as well as the inner conflict about where one draws the line on such a delicate matter.

39497 ::: Paranormal (1997) ::: documentary ::: It appears as if the "world's loss of magic" which Max Weber talked about has reached a climax and provoked a counter reaction. The interest in inexplicable phenomena is growing, something which can even be measured by the propensity of those unerring trend barometers, the television stations, to broadcast a fill of material of this nature. Paranormal phenomena manifest a remainder from the factual world which cannot be explained. They represent another dimension which requires a "medium", be it human or technical, in order to be perceived. The film Paranormal undertakes research in the milieu of borderline science as a parallel activity. The filmmakers seek out experts and amateurs in the field of the supernatural and ask them to explain the methods by which they make contact with the "cosmic information web". The necessary apparatus forms the central part of the report. In their search for "units of sense" in the chaos, the researchers use, interestingly enough, those techniques which are presently central to popular culture ­ de-construction, sampling and scratching. Parallel to this Lampalzer / Oppermann also undertake their own experiments by various cinematographic means, ranging from single frame photography to a manipulated Super 8 camera. The failure to make contact is shown ­ partly ironic and partly laconic. The end is left open to interpretation ­ unexposed film material hung in a tree becomes an ambiguous sign.

Starring writer Byron Coley, drummer Chris Corsano, guitarist Thurston Moore, Japanese noise outfit Hijokaidan, Switzerlands Voice Crack and a pontificating intro by Jason Gross. With never before seen archival footage, amazing photographic finds and even some never before released recordings, the film is a must-see, or must-listen if you will, for every Borbetomagus fan or lover of music that has labored its own definition of what sound should be like.

The viewer will meet world famous architects and visionaries like Buckminster Fuller and Le Corbusier and experience their visions and ideas of how to build us a better world. With the help of animations unrealized projects come to life in this documentary that shows astounding visions of a world - as it could have been. Since the end of the 19th century industrialized man has been confronted with new kinds of possibilities and problems, all of which in one way or another are the consequences of a storm of technological progress. Amidst the smoke and wars, architects and artists saw early on that this was a world full of possibilities, with plenty of room for visionary ideas. They were motivated and driven by the problems of the day, be it a shortage of housing, urban decay or pollution. Their visions brought changes in our ways of living and dwelling that challenged our concepts of the good, the true and the beautiful. In this documentary we encounter the Anthroposophist head quarters in Switzerland, the functionalist cities of Le Corbusier and Archigram's projects where pop-art meets architecture. We also meet the self-taught inventor Buckminster Fuller and his light weight constructions, and Antti Lovag - the protector of round houses. Also we visit Habitat 67 - a building conceived from LEGO, Superstudio and their world without objects, Paolo Soleri's crystal like cities in the desert, and ecological housing under ground. Great Expectations is a film about architecture projects and visions which have brought changes in our ways of living and dwelling that challenged our concepts of the good, the true and the beautiful. Great Expectations is the first documentary to present the grand architectural visions of our time. Visions where imagination has been allowed to run free. Sometimes unrealized and unbound by earthly conditions, sometimes realized and revolutionary to its inhabitants. But the film deals with far more than mere illusions of grandeur. It is the story of great thinkers who in different time-periods of the 20th century have suggested revolutionary changes to our ways of living - and how it is to live in their dreams. The answers vary, but the intentions of the architects were good - mostly. Using archive footage and animations, the film brings architecture of the past and plans never realized to life. Visiting inhabitants of the visions that became realized, their stories comment and contrast the ambitions of the architects.

Farhaan finds out that Bombay Police have been targeting the Muslim community, and in the name of fighting terrorism, have been killing innocent Muslim men, women and children. He comes to know that Joint Commissioner of Police, Dev Pratap Singh, is involved in this witch-hunt, and he would like to kill him. Farhaan joins hands with the local Muslim political leader, Latif, and he is provided training in handling guns, and is subsequently made ready for this task. Unfortunately, Farhaan is unable to kill Dev, who escapes unhurt, albeit a little shaken. Chief Minister Bhandarkar views this incident seriously, and instructs the police to root out terrorist elements in the city, which they do so ruthlessly. Farhaan is told to deliver a package to a man near a Hindu temple, and he does so. While at a stop to buy some snacks, the package explodes, killing several people. Since this incident occurred near a Hindu temple, a right-wing political party member, Mangal Rao, organizes a wave of riots against the Muslim community. Riots take place, and the police are instructed to observe and not prevent the violence. As a result, hundreds are killed. Latif organizes his men to target and attack Hindus and Hindu establishments, rendering the region unsafe, with people being killed in the name of religion. When Hindus and Muslims have had enough, they publicly ask for peace, it is only then Latif and Mangal Rao agree on a truce, on the condition that no Muslim male, female or child will file a FIR (First Information Report) in any police station, to which Latif agrees. Latif then warns everyone in the Muslim community not to complain against anyone. Period. It is then Farhaan finds out that he has been treated as a pawn by Latif, and decides to trust Dev and become an informer. But will Dev trust a man who just attempted to kill him? And will Latif and Mangal Rao join forces to eliminate Farhaan, who now has become a liability to both sides.

Britannicus, alarmed by these tidings, hastens to Rome to claim the throne, and is met by Nero, who cunningly offers to let the people decide. Nero is hailed by the people as their ruler to the disgust of Britannicus, who informs his betrothed of Nero's treachery, and enlists her influence to recover the throne. He entrusts this letter for delivery to a supposedly loyal friend named Narcissus, who, instead of delivering the message to Junia, hands it over to Nero. Narcissus returns to Britannicus, and makes him believe that Junia has spumed his love message and no longer cares for him. Britannicus, terrified by this second misfortune, can hardly believe his senses, and is for the moment crushed. So as to separate the lovers forever. Narcissus now counsels Nero to have Junia abducted, and the fair woman in the dark of night is made a prisoner by Roman soldiers, and carried to the emperor's palace, where Nero is waiting. He gloats over the lovely form cringing before him in deadly fear, and a violent passion is aroused in the tyrant. Nero, enraptured by the charms of this virgin, decides to make her empress and thereby remove her forever from the influence of Britannicus, his hated rival. He writes Junia to this effect, warning her not to show any further affections to Britannicus, whose life is threatened in that case. Britannicus, after the first shock, begins to hope again, and is seen entering Junia's home to satisfy himself of the true state of affairs. To his dismay, he finds his beloved gone and her attendants unable to inform him of her whereabouts. Immediately he sees the hand of Nero, on whom he calls to demand for information about the woman that is dearer to him than his life. Nero receives Britannicus, and makes him believe that he is his true friend by introducing him into the presence of Junia, who occupies an adjoining room. Britannicus bursts out in a passionate appeal to Junia, while Nero is seen crouching in the background observing the two. Junia has noticed Nero hiding behind a curtain, and therefore dares not confess her love to Britannicus. She treats him coldly, causing her unfortunate lover to rush in despair from the room. Nero, stepping out of his hiding place, again proposes to Junia, who spurns the tyrant, and in her extremity, whips out a dagger with which she threatens to end her life.

Outside she comes upon Britannicus, and immediately conceives the idea of using her son's hated rival as an instrument in her revenge. She informs Britannicus by letter that Junia still loves him, and offers her assistance in his fight to recover the throne. Narcissus, the spy, is present when Britannicus receives this note. He manages to obtain possession of it, and hastens to Nero to inform him of the impending danger. Meanwhile, Agrippina has introduced Britannicus into the palace, and brought the lovers together.

She concocts a powerful poison which is tried upon a slave who quickly dies, convincing Nero that this is the quickest way to rid himself once and for all of his enemies. Nero addresses a letter to Britannicus, giving his consent to his marriage with Junia, and fixing a day for the wedding, which is to be celebrated in his palace.

He has hardly touched a few drops when he falls down in great agony. A general commotion begins, during which Nero leaves his table and comes rushing to Britannicus, who is writhing on the floor dying. Agrippina, in a moment sizing up the true situation, accuses her son of the crime amidst the consternation of the wedding party.

It's 1912 Boston. The Apley family, led by its patriarch George, is built on a foundation of the strong traditions of being Bostonians. Anyone who is anyone in Boston knows who the Apleys are, or at least that's what the Apleys would like to believe. George aspires to the writings of 'Ralph Waldo Emerson (I)' (qv), who he sees as espousing the strong traditions upon which he lives. George and his wife Catherine's life, and by extension that of George's extended family, is turned upside down when their two children go against the traditions of the family. Daughter Eleanor has fallen in love with Howard Boulder, who is not only not originally from Boston but is not a Harvard man. And the family believes that son John is courting his cousin, Agnes Willing, as he should be. Agnes also believes this to be the case. But that belief is false as John has fallen in love with someone outside his circle, namely Myrtle Dole, who is not only the daughter of a mechanic, but is - aghast to George - a foreigner: she lives in Worcester. George tries to convince his children that they should follow his strict moral traditions. He can't quite understand why his family and public life isn't falling into place like tradition dictates it should.

Because the business is not doing well as it cannot compete with the larger sake companies, Kohayagawa wants to ensure that all his daughters are taken care of financially, which means finding husbands for both Akiko and Noriko, that task which is aided by Kohayagawa's younger brother-in-law, Yanosuke Kitagawa.

And Noriko has only confided in Akiko that she has a close friendship with a man named Tadashi Teramoto, a teacher who has just moved to Sapporo indefinitely for work.

One seems to have had things her own way for a time, having been cast always for the leading roles, which opportunities made her the "public's pet." However, she does not wear the mantle of fame becomingly, for her success has made her petulant, peevish and selfish. On the other hand, her rival works studiously, and by her subtle art has won some attention, until during a performance of "Darkest Russia" she completely eclipses the histrionic luster of the hitherto favorite. In the Ballroom Scene (which is one of the most novel and pretentious ever staged in motion pictures) she simply carries all before her, eliciting thunderous applause and bravos of an enthusiastic audience, and the admiration of the pariahs and hoi pollois of the company. The curtain is raised again and again on the scene of her triumph, until she is called forward and a shower of floral tributes bestowed upon her. As may be imagined, this is viewed with cringing odium by her rival, who proceeds to the dressing-room, convulsed with rage, where the maid does her best to soothe her. At this moment the new star enters; her beautiful visage more radiant than the resplendent flowers with which she is laden. The offering of some of the blossoms to her companion, who has endeavored to suppress her passion, is the precursor of a stormy scene. The rage of jealousy fires her soul, and the recrudescent dethroned queen pounces upon the invidious bouquets, tearing them to shreds. What follows must be left to your imagination in this description, as it is simply indescribable, and must be seen to be appreciated. Enough it is to say the two women struggle and fight furiously until the stage manager, whom the maid has called, separates them with his time-worn injunction, "Be a l-a-d-y!"

39983 ::: Finite & Infinite Games (2010) ::: short ::: A celebration of movement, FINITE & INFINITE GAMES was captured on film at Judson Memorial Church, a spectacular space with an illustrious collaborative arts history in New York City's Greenwich Village. At its heart is the literary work of philosopher James P. Carse, Finite and Infinite Games. Choreographer Katherine Helen Fisher crafted nine dances seeking to explore the individual's role within the community through interweaving narrative and abstract elements of movement. Visual artist, C. Finley, created a massive 12' x 48' non-repetitive geometric backdrop. Finley's artwork simultaneously clashes with and complements the dancers, exposes or hides them as the need arises. Her art is a comparative replication of the dance and a beautiful mirroring of the stained glass at Judson Memorial Church. Designer Gai Mattiolo's costumes are as much a part of the choreography as the dancers themselves. Alternately standing out or blending in, an infusion of colors or muted tones---a merging of high couture and choreography---he has extended the reach of the dancers in a beautiful way. RJ Muna directed the filming. Brought to you by thisiswater Productions, LLC in association with Random Bench Productions. FINITE & INFINITE GAMES is a celebration of unity, color and variety---a riot of pure movement. The musical selections feature the singular voice of the saxophone as a representation of the human voice. This project draws from art history's famous vanguard of collaborative artists working within the performing arts, from Digalieve, Massine and Fokine to Childs, Glass, Wilson and Cunningham. This is a presentation of pure joy through collaboration for the 21st century.

39994 ::: French Immersion (2011) ::: comedy ::: A contemporary comedy about five Anglo-Canadians - actually four Anglos and a New Yorker - who find themselves in a two-week total immersion French program in a remote town in Northern Quebec. The place is perfect for total immersion, since according to the most recent census the population is 97% Quebecois "pure laine," unilingually French, and fervently nationalist. No one is quite sure who or what the remaining 3% is. Following the closure of the plant - the primary economic generator in town - the residents of the small town of St-Isadore-du-Coeur-de-Jésus in central Québec, for their survival as town, reinvent themselves as a community by opening a French language school. The two week program will be fully immersive, where the students are not to speak English or any other non-French language or else be yellow carded, and will be billeted with local families who are to expose them solely to traditional Québecois culture. The program is despite the general animosity the Francophones especially in small town Québec have against their Anglophone counterparts in the rest of the country, the Francophones who view the Anglophones more as curiosities than people. The students will have a difficult enough time remembering who's who as almost everyone in the town has the surname Tremblay. The second class of students includes: Bobby Sexton, incognito as Bobby Smith, an in the closet gay MP for the Completely Canadian Party, he who will be running for the party leadership once the current leader makes the official announcement to step down, and who needs to be able to debate in French against who will be his main rival, Michael Pontifikator; Jonathan Hornstein, a Jewish New York chef trainee, who wants to open a French restaurant; Colin MacGonagle, a mild mannered Red Deer postal carrier; Aretha Marley, a flight attendant who mistakenly believes her French is already good having been in French immersion before, and who has to pass her company's language test this time around to stay employed; and Cathy, a firefighter. Beyond the French-English divide, complications ensue as: Bobby's true identity possibly comes to light, especially as Pontifikator is all over the airwaves; competitive but loving sisters Ginette and Pat, Cathy and Aretha's hosts respectively, argue over who should get who as a billet; Cathy's true profession and her reason for being at the school also possibly comes to light; the divide in Jonathan's host family's household is not French-English but rather Catholic-Jewish; Jonathan finds a kindred soul in South Asian Kumar, a Punjabi restaurateur who moved to town as he was told that's where all the Indians are, and as his arranged marriage bride Amrita won't speak to him as she hates the town; Colin's host parents' adopted twin Asian daughters doing whatever they can to make his life miserable; and Colin becomes more interested in the French language teacher, Julie Tremblay, than he is in the French language itself. But the town administrators may have bigger problems in that they are competing with the plethora of French immersion programs around, and have to defend themselves against some complaints from the first class of students, which threatens to shut them down before they even really begin.

Boxing journalist Steve Bunce, who was ringside at White Hart Lane on the night, says: "This is a guy who should be dead. "He is the boxer who came back from the dead that remains an absolute established medical fact. "He should not have made any recovery according to all of the medical experts that have peered inside his head." Michael fought Eubank twice.

He borrows the needed money from Darling but is forced to agree to give up both his boat and docking space if he can't meet the note.

40269 ::: "Majority Rules" (1996) ::: game-show ::: The show would start with 50 contestants, each with an electronic voting paddle. Marc Summers would ask a question that was subjective and would result in one of two answers, if the contestant answered in the majority they would move on in the game, if they were not in the majority, they were out for the game. When a question was asked, Marc would walk up into the contestant seating area and ask people why they answered a certain way, this would add a personal spotlight on chosen contestants. This format would be continued until only 5 contestants were left in the "majority". These 5 finalists would be brought down on stage behind their own individual podiums. Marc would ask a question that would result in one of two answers, when one of the five finalists would buzz in and answer the same as the majority of the people polled, they would move on to the final two. In the round of the final two contestants, Marc would pose a question and each of the final two would give an "in depth" answer on why they felt a particular way, the remaining 48 contestants would vote on which answer they preferred, and the contestant with the majority of the votes moved on to the bonus round. I don't remember what the bonus round consisted of, and the bonus format was changed around, as well as the general format may not have been exactly like I described in every show. From what I understand, the show never made it further than limited screening areas such as Phoenix Arizona. I was a contestant on 7 episodes and made it to the final five once.

Long abandoned as a land without hope, Africa has battled to overcome the negative stereotypes that have condemned it to the periphery of civilization. The damning lie is of a people trapped in their past; unable to break the cycle of corruption and apathy - a people who will always be dependent on foreign help as they are incapable of helping themselves. The Dancing Forest is Africa's strident retaliation. Through the shining example of a small village in Togo, we find a community that refuses to wait for outside aid to make its way out of poverty and ruin. With tools in hand, its proud men and women stoop to build their own destiny and a model of self-reliance. Mixing traditional agricultural knowledge with modern techniques they provide a timely lesson to the West on how we ought to harmonize with nature and build a sustainable relationship with the land based on preservation and respect. Amid the hectic and merciless stampede of capitalism, The Dancing Forest offers a quiet sanctuary in which to reflect on some of the many urgent questions facing mankind: How are we to address the inequities of the widening global divide between rich and poor? What hope is there for the 218 million sub-Saharan Africans who live in abject poverty? What are the ways to combat sky-rocketing food prices? How are we to define our economic relationship with the environment? And what is the role of women in the development of Africa and its communities? In over 60 years the World Bank, IMF, WTO have been woefully short on solutions to these concerns and may indeed be at the very heart of the problem. This is the story they do not want to be told. Opening our eyes and minds to a new way of development, The Dancing Forest takes us on a trip to a world where time, nature and everyday gestures still bear meaning. A world where forests can dance. Through the noble gaze and profound testimony of the people of Baga, we are educated and inspired and shown that beyond pain and survival is a lasting dignity, freedom and hope.

Folktales are vehicles through which both the narrator and audience express and share beliefs and ethics, experiences and concerns, assumptions and behaviour.

40885 ::: Between the Fall and the Rise (????) ::: drama ::: This story is inspired by a beautiful young woman of 26 named Ashley.

I was on patrol with my partner when we stopped to talk with her; I was curious as to what she would be doing in such a troubled area as I'd never seen her before. It soon became apparent that she was a heroin user, and my heart sank. We had a pleasant interaction, and at the end of the conversation I saw her eyes well up as I told her that I would keep her in my prayers. I saw her again while at Jail Division after two officers had arrested her for being under the influence. I said 'hi' to her as they brought her in and she gave me a smile. I then asked if she remembered me and she said she did (it had been 6 months since I had had face-to-face contact with her). "Really?" I replied, and even though she could barely stand up, her eyes rolling to the back of her head, she said "Yea, 7th and San Pedro." I then saw her a few days later and again, I approached her and began asking her questions about where she was staying and when the last time was that she had used heroin. She asked if she was in trouble, to which I said 'no'. After hearing that she didn't know where she was going to sleep that night (It was 8 pm, and had been raining all day) I expressed that I was concerned for her. It broke my heart to know that I couldn't do anything for her in that moment. I drove home that night with a huge weight bearing down on my shoulders.

40894 ::: "Scrabble" (1984) ::: game-show ::: For years, one of America's favorite board games was Scrabble, the Selchow & Righter-marketed game introduced in the 1930s. The game was revised and brought to television in 1984 by Reg Grundy Productions. Two contestants competed in the "crossword" round, played on a giant Scrabble board. Host Woolery announces a letter to build on, announces the number of letters in the word and reads a clue to said word (e.g., a seven letter word; "Experts really know how to pick them"; answer: "pockets"). The contestant chosen to go first draws two numbered tiles from the rack; the rack (positioned between the contestants) contained all the letters in the word, plus three "stoppers," or letters not in the puzzle. The contestant indicates which letter he wants to place in the word; if the letter fits, he/she may either attempt to guess the word or place another letter in the puzzle (the contestant draws two more tiles if he/she still doesn't attempt a guess). If the letter tried is a "stopper" or the contestant gives an incorrect solution, control passes to the opponent; letters landing on blue or pink squares were worth cash bonuses if they correctly guessed the word (#500 and #1,000 respectively, which the players kept regardless if they won the game). Play on the current word continues until all three "stoppers" are found (at which time a "speedword" format was used) or until one letter remained in the puzzle. The contestant who guesses the word correctly wins one point; all subsequent words were built on a letter in the previous word. The first player to win three points won the game, #500 and played the Sprint Round. In the Sprint Round, the contestant played vs. the returning champion to guess a given number of words in a shorter time period than the opponent. Either way, the "speedword" format was used, with Woolery giving the number of letters in the word and a clue. The contestant was shown two letters at a time; there were no "stoppers" in the Sprint Round, though a 10-second penalty was assessed for incorrect guesses. The winner of the Sprint Round received a cash bonus (usually #1,000), returns as champion and played the Bonus Sprint against the clock. In the Bonus Sprint, the contestant had to guess two words, again under the "speedword" format, within 10 seconds to win #5,000 (plus #1,000 for each day it was not won); an incorrect guess at any point stopped the game. Champions continued until their defeat or until winning 10 Sprint Rounds.

As he stands behind the lectern, he tells many reasons why he and we should care about the environment. With the human population growing exponentially and humans having increasingly longer life expectancies, we as a species are having a larger footprint on the environment. Much of what is man made in the world, such as the economy, democracy and the dependence on fossil fuels, are treated as unchangeable forces of nature, when in reality they can and should be viewed critically, especially in their long term consequences on life on the planet. He also tells of the interconnectedness we are as a species without most really realizing it, and that we should have a stronger connection to place and what that means. Away from the lecture stage, he tells of the profound effect the bombing on Pearl Harbor had on his life as a third generation Canadian of Japanese heritage, and the resulting negative view of white Canada on ethnic Japanese for the better part of his growing up period.

41047 ::: Pyhän kirjan varjo (2007) ::: documentary ::: A look at how multinational corporations curried favor with Saparmurat Niyazov (1940-2006), the despot of oil- and gas-rich Turkmenistan, primarily through translating "Ruhnama," his autobiographical book of cultural musings, into many languages and providing testimonials that legitimized his murderous dictatorship. Two European journalists interview Turkman dissidents and try, without success, to get statements from multinationals such as Çalik Holdings, Siemens, Daimler-Chrysler, John Deere, Caterpillar, and Bouygues Construction as to why they put business interests ahead of human rights. A Finnish CEO provides the solitary moral compass. Shadow Of The Holy Book investigates the morality of international companies and the dictatorship of oil-and-gas-rich Turkmenistan. These companies help give the dictatorship the propaganda support that it needs to survive. Turkmenistan's dictator, Saparmurat Niyazov, has written a ludicrous book: the ŤRuhnamať, the Book of Soul, a key tool in the government's subjugation of human rights and free speech. Yet many international companies give their clandestine support to the Ruhnama and help suppress the country's voices of opposition and dissidence - in return for multi million-dollar business deals. Now that Niyazov has died, the influence of the Ruhnama remains as strong as ever. The great powers of the world have entered a new "Great Game" - attempting to influence Turkmenistan for the benefit of their economies. The shadow of the Ruhnama continues to stretch beyond Niyazov's grave. Turkmenistan is an old Soviet republic. The territory located by the shore of the Caspian Sea in Central Asia became independent in 1991 at the same time as the other border republics. While the Baltic countries started to build democratic governments, Turkmenistan and other Central Asian former Soviet republics found themselves taken over by strong, individualist presidents. Turkmenistan closed its doors to the outside world. Saparmurat Niyazov ruled the country since the day Turkmenistan proclaimed its independence on October 27th 1991. Niyazov died December 21st 2006. The personality cult of the Turkmen president Niyazov, was singularly extreme. The new regime is led by one of Niyazov's former cronies, Gurbanguly Berdymuhammedov. Berdymuhammedov has already continued to award foreign companies contracts related to the Ruhnama, and has made it clear that, at least for now, he will go on using the Ruhnama as an important part of the government's propaganda and power structure. According to the international Human Rights Watch, the rights of the Turkmen people are continuously violated in a uniquely flagrant way. SHADOW OF THE HOLY BOOK exposes the immorality of international companies doing business with the dictatorship of oil-and-gas-rich Turkmenistan, thus helping to hide its human rights and free speech abuses - all in the name of profit and corporate greed.

41164 ::: Stephan@NadelÖhr.Zürich (2004) ::: documentary ::: Zurich at the beginning of the 90s in the 20th century: the worlds media focuses on the blot on Switzerland's clean image: the ŤNeedle Parkť, the open drug scene at the Platzspitz, just behind the Swiss National Museum. Right under the eyes of passers-by - tourists, business people, women with children - hundreds of mainly young people were shooting up drugs into their bloody, festering veins and openly dealing drugs in front of the police. Stephan was one of them. He shot up everything - the more the better. To him heroin was like a mother, who hugged him and cocaine was like a father who gave him the courage. A substitute for something he had never experienced. Ten years later: Gaby Schädler gets to know the 32 year old Stephan, who now is an accountant, as a cheerful, charming and responsible young man. By chance she discovers old video footage which shows Stephan as a junkie in a deplorable state. The filmmaker decides to tell his story. For a whole year, she accompanies the ex-junkie with her camera. Stephan openly talks about drugs, highs and withdrawal as well as the difficulties of his life after drugs and his fear of normality. He still thinks that taking drugs is one of the most exciting experiences you can have - 'better than sex' - and promptly succumbs to his old habit: the camera becomes the witness of a temporary relapse and his subsequent remorse. Fortunately, this happens in Zurich, a city that has learned to deal with its addicts. The result is a sensitive, lively and, at times, funny portrait of a young man who managed to escape from hell. A film which, last but not least, has a preventive effect, as it simply tells the naked truth.

41167 ::: The Music in Me (2007) ::: documentary ::: This is a story about a group of people called the Merry Makers who refuse to be defeated by the enormous challenges life has dealt them. There is nothing like them anywhere in the world. They're aged from 6 to 56 and most of them have some intellectual or physical disability. The Merry Makers dance and their performances inspire even the most cynical. Anyone who's ever seen them perform can attest to the fact that they have an uncanny ability to lift spirits and put a smile on their audience's faces. But that's not all they do. What the Merry Makers do best is perform miracles. Countless times parents bring their son or daughter along to class having previously been given little hope for their personal development. It doesn't happen overnight, but they change. Here in a suburban Sydney hall, both the parent and the child blossom in an atmosphere of love and support and under the leadership of the dedicated Artistic Director Lucinda Bryant. And their popularity is growing. Tickets have almost sold out for their upcoming concert at Sydney's Entertainment Centre with the Merry Makers as the headline act. So the pressure is really on. Whilst rehearsals for the concert intensify and the stress levels increase, Lea talks about her beautiful 18 year old daughter Rebecca who can't understand why she can't do what she wants to in life - so what if Rebecca has Down syndrome! Why should that stop her being what she wants to be? Lucinda and Janet reveal the strength and advice they share in the running of the Merry Makers. Their mother/daughter relationship is so typical, yet so atypical too. What mother/daughter act do you know of that runs a company like this voluntarily? Maria & Sam Walsh show that there's a lot to be said for perseverance. When Sam first came to Merry Makers 4 years ago he refused to even get up in class and spent the 3 hour class lying on the ground. It took months before he would join in with the others. Now, after years of patience, and a genuine recognition of talent, Sam is flourishing at Merry Makers. Sabina & Samantha's story is told with startling frankness - when Sabina tells of her refusal to let her granddaughter Samantha be put up for adoption, choosing instead to become a mother again in her 50s. And Aida bravely reveals her heartbreaking tale - her dream to see her children grow up and have their own babies shattered by a crippling disease that will see Aida outlive her daughters. People with disabilities have been given a place in society - it's on the periphery where they can watch the world pass them by but not participate. Only the Merry Makers won't accept that place. The Music In Me tells of this inspirational group of human beings who have transcended their potential fate and found their own place in life... and that's center stage.
41168 ::: Victoria Day (2009) ::: drama ::: It is May 1988 in Toronto. The school year is coming to a close. The Victoria Day long weekend heralds the beginning of summer. In Boston, Wayne Gretzky's dynastic Edmonton Oilers are playing in the Stanley Cup Finals. Best of all, Bob Dylan is coming to town. Ben Spektor, 16, attends the concert with his two closest friends, Sammy and Noah. Though the year is 1988, they exist as if in a time warp, idolizing the music and culture of the 1960s. Outside the concert, Ben sees what looks like a routine exchange: two teenagers buying drugs. In a way he could never have predicted, the consequences of this drug deal will alter the course of his summer and, quite possibly, the rest of his life. This one event, barely significant at the time, initiates Ben into love, as well as death, and forces him to confront his conscience, his friends, and his family. Over the span of one week, seemingly disparate forces converge on him - the search for a missing boy, his romance with the boy's sister, the Stanley Cup finals, the fortunes of his own hockey team, and a peculiar Vietnam re-enactment with Victoria Day firecrackers. These events conspire to displace the certainty of childhood with the disorientation of adulthood.

Is it their exclusion from the fruits of so-called development? Is it their refusal to 'modernise'? Or is it our inability to comprehend and preserve their centuries-old harmonious way of life? Have our prescriptive interventions helped? Or have they caused great harm? The film attempts to understand the gamut of 'alienations' responsible - social, cultural, economic and political while gently posing the core question: Is it they who are alienated from the onward march of progress or is it us who are alienated, blinded by the discourse of modernity?

The film is made by Rune Bundgaard and Martin Svinklřv, who were teachers at the Boarding School Villads Villadsen in Qasigiannguit. It started as part of a media class project where the students were directly involved in the process. Some helped with the cameras, and others participated in making the interviews. In recent years the number of sled dogs has decreased significantly in Northern Greenland. During the filmmaking process, it became clear how essential dog sled racing is to the Greenlandic identity. It ends up being a process through which the students help demonstrate how "one of their own" carries on a historic tradition that might otherwise be forgotten. The starting point was simple. Through an ethnographic approach, and just with a very small DSLR camera and some students, the intention was to capture the experinced reality along the way. In the end it became not only a film about sled dog racing, but also about the special warmth and solidarity among the people we met during our three year period in the village. A portrait of a mentality not often shown in films about Greenland.

In other words, sheer chaos, very much like that experienced by Yugoslavia in the 1990s. In this chaos, various territories, such as Azerbaijan, were occupied at various times by German, Turkish, and British troops, the latter motivated by Soviet Russia's withdrawal from WW1 against Germany. This film presents a very "orthodox," even Stalinist interpretation of the traumatic events around the oil-rich city of Baku in 1918, in which (no surprise) the real villains are portrayed as certain leftist Russian politicians (played by Zharov, Savchenko, etc.) who were opposed to the Communists. Again (no surprise), the Communists ("Bolsheviks") and their supporters (played by Gasanov, Klyukvin, Morskoy etc. ) are depicted as the heroic "good guys." The Baku City Council ("Soviet") witnesses a struggle for votes and the anti-Communists finagle a bare majority. This places in grave danger the pro-Communist faction, consisting of 26 men (the legendary "26 Baku Commissars")....

41294 ::: The Symposium (2018) ::: drama ::: Two English stage actors, Hugo and Jago, have an artistic difference while rehearsing a radio play. This evolves rapidly into a huge fracas, and spills onto a West End side street. Naturally, this draws a horde or passersby, including an American bystander, who elects to be the peacemaker. Things soon deteriorate from the scholarly to the brutal, even physical, and long held personal and societal prejudices surface. Class, racial origins, and history are harshly debated. Then Hugo, the posh one, proclaims his African ancestry, which bombshell causes a puzzled Jago to accost an African Traffic warden for verification, thus opening a third front to his quarrel with Hugo. There is a reversal of roles, with the posh Hugo championing liberal causes, the working class Jago becoming more and more entrenched as a xenophobe, and the traffic warden boasting an exemplary academic and social pedigree, despite his job. Unbeknownst to Jago, however, this entire 'symposium' is meant either to be his Road to Damascus or ruin. This fast paced drama is set in the 2010s. It utilises a pseudo Shakespearian language that enables exquisite witticism and sarcasm, while offering a crucial historical perspective. It also allows the characters to transcend certain social boundaries, while addressing the unspoken tensions and sub­tensions undermining harmony in a cosmopolitan United Kingdom. The Symposium is a art house film project written and directed by Ghanaian poet and filmmaker Ishmael Annobil. It follows in the footsteps of his magic­ realist film, 'Salamander', which is currently in post-production. Like all his other film, Annobil designed Symposium to be shot in public, with multiple cameras, and with some amount of spectator participation.

41357 ::: Wreck Beach Butoh (2006) ::: short ::: Between the impenetrable blackness of the endowment lands rain forest and the primordial Pacific Ocean lies Wreck Beach Butoh, Pascal Provost's transcendent art film of a collaboration of Butoh by Kokoro Dance. Intentionally employing the nature of 16mm Kodak Double X, this cross-cultural film is a provocation of black and white with the specter of light continually emerging from the shadows to introduce the possibility of speaking about the unspeakable. The grain is used to push the audience away from the constraints of the physical realm, collapsing the air, the water, the sand and the naked body into one. The soundtrack is an extension beyond the pictures, seducing the viewer into a vicarious, hypnotic dance. That which is formless becomes seen and that which is soundless, heard. Wreck Beach Butoh successfully translates the precepts of Ankoku Butoh from one form into another, with each leading parallel existential lives. Both the dance and the film become an exceptional and universalizing transitory moment for these artists' shared sensibilities.

The projected image inside the box is then recorded using a video camera. This is the first attempt of the director in his search of a new and unique visual language in film-making.

The techniques work well though, providing insight into not only the highly technical world of software programming, but also the hysteria that surrounded this event. The film makes it case by first over-stating the problem and dwelling on the conspiracy theories of Y2K, then breaking them down one by one with interviews and striking visuals.

41405 ::: Dirt: A Season Inside the Devil's Bowl (2005) ::: documentary ::: "This is real. It's blood, sweat, tears, mud, dirt, beer." -- Travis Pace, #17. DIRT, a documentary by Jeff Bowden, follows a season inside the soul of American auto racing-the World Class Street Stocks-at the legendary Devil's Bowl Speedway, in Mesquite, Texas, as the racers careen on and off the track toward the season championship. "That's the original class at Devil's Bowl. That's where it all began, in a stock car. You took an old car, beat the windows out of it, and said, 'Okay, you sons-of-bitches, let's have us a race.'" -- Thomas Weeks, #5x. The title captures the heart of the film--DIRT is about primal forces: horsepower and ego, passion, fuel and fire. The racecars are usually held together with duct tape. There's nothing fancy about these cars: "No power steering. These guys never heard of driving with power steering. I'm telling you. These were stock car drivers! Hairy-chested racecar drivers!

All of us, at some time or another, come to a point our lives where we need to choose what path to go down. In many respects its like standing in front of a bridge - a bridge in life sort-of-speak. But if your goal in crossing that bridge is to become a superstar on the other side, you're going to find that in crossing it you're going to be on your own; that none of your friends are going to dare to go with you; and that when you get to the other side you're going to lose control and the only thing you will know, is that everything you know will do you no good from thereon. Everything on the other side of that bridge is new, and the choice is yours to make your world beautiful . . . or to make it crap. The choice is yours and yours alone. Our story follows the journeys of three different musical groups as they aspire to ascend toward superstardom. One of the groups is poor and living in the ghetto, and they are the victims of abusive relationships and broken families. Another group is a typical suburban garage band supported by friends and a family who loves them and cares about their dreams. The third group is filthy rich - and while it would seem the rich guys could simply buy their way to the top, the reality is that the one thing they want more than anything in life can not be bought. Now, while all of these groups of musicians come from vastly diverse backgrounds and have completely different motivations for wanting to become famous, underneath it all, they are all the same.... they just don't know it yet. All of them are going to cross the same bridge, and on the other side, all of them will face choices and all of them will have the opportunity to turn their new world into something beautiful . . . or to let it turn into crap. The choice is theirs, and theirs alone. We are going to find in our story that some people - no matter how talented they may be - simply do not deserve to be famous. For you can fight to make it to the top, and you can struggle to get away from where you've come from . . . but when you get to the end of your journey and you find yourself looking into the mirror expecting to see a superstar facing back at you, you're going to see the truth. You're going to see, more clearly than ever before, all the places where you've been and all the people you've tried so hard to get away from . . . and you're going to realize that nothing has changed. Nothing but you! You are somebody else now. And for the first time in your life - if you are the true superstar - you will be able to see beauty in everything around you. You'll see it in the toughest and least likely of places. And you will fly.

But here we are in the 21st century and the one controversial social justice issue American media has yet to examine is the animal protection and animal rights movement. Is it because this movement is the last great social justice issue that has yet to be universally accepted?

According to new research from Wichita State University in Kansas, kindergarten students verbally and physically harass each other once every three to six minutes. Generations ago, aggression may have been a survival skill, but today, "If that pattern is not stopped, then that person is highly likely to become a criminal," says Jeff Sprague, Ph.D. He is co-director of the Institute on Violence and Destructive Behavior at the University of Oregon. "So we do very much see the early roots of these problems in very young children," he says. For victims, the future is also bleak.

And, according to the U.S. Secret Service, bully-victims looking for revenge carry out two-thirds of school shootings. Whether your child is a bully, a victim or even a bystander, watch "Baby Bullies," to learn the dangers of this problem, and some creative solutions for it.

41631 ::: Aisling: We Saw a Vision (2008) ::: short ::: Aisling - We Saw A Vision, is inspired by Irish author Liam Mac Uistin's visionary peace poem, this short dance film speaks to all people who value freedom, nature, and the power of transformation. The work suggests how mythology remains in the modern mind; a kind of ancestral symbolism akin to contemporary dance. Background: The Garden of Remembrance was created in Dublin, in 1966, and is so named to honour the people who sacrificed and fought for the independence of the Irish Nation, and who ultimately won their struggle. A contest was created in 1976 to find a poet who could express the appreciation and inspiration of this struggle for freedom. The winner of the contest was Dublin born author Liam Mac Uistin, whose poem "We Saw a Vision" is now written in Irish, French, and English on the stone wall of the monument. The word "aisling" in the Irish language means vision. An aisling poem is a type of poetic form created in the 18th century as a new means of poetry, which could express the hopes and sorrows of the people, free from censorship. Mac Uistin's poem decisively observes the overcoming of obstacles and the creation of a new freedom by standing up to oppression with a vision of peace. The language successfully moves from the past to the present with a message of hope, in a poetic voice that could easily be speaking about contemporary issues.

This aberration is a memento mori as the narratives grazed across the vague impressions of the racial tensions lingering past the 1997 riots in Indonesia, World War II, ritual beliefs, and ethnic discrimination in Southeast Asia which has been ingrained over generations and transported along with the migrant communities. Nonetheless, amidst the sporadic ventures into death and violence, sexual relations and sexualities, these are the lines of division that bind us to each other, in one way or another, as people survive through their crises.

At any point before Robinson reads an unspecified part of the question, the contestant currently being asked the question may bank the funds, as an incorrect answer deletes any unbanked money. At the end of each round (the first being 2 minutes, which each subsequent round 10 seconds shorter), the contestants individually (and without consultation) vote out whom they believe is the "weakest link" though oftentimes outstanding players are eliminated and poor performers remain until the latter stages of the game. After announcing the votes and her sarcastic remarks, biting insults and commentary, Robinson tells the player with the most elimination votes the now-infamously dreadful phrase: "You are the Weakest Link!

Together with his retinue of odd associates, including a talking, vodka-swilling black cat, Woland wreaks havoc on the societal elite.

41983 ::: Lake of Betrayal: The Story of Kinzua Dam (2016) ::: documentary ::: Lake of Betrayal explores the history of Kinzua Dam on the Allegheny River in Pennsylvania and its impact on the Seneca Nation - the effects of which continue to be felt today. Completed in 1965, it was originally proposed to help mitigate flooding in the City of Pittsburgh-200 miles downriver, but the 27-mile reservoir that formed behind it inundated vast tracts of Seneca ancestral lands, forcing their removal in breach of the Canandaigua Treaty of 1794, the oldest US-Indian treaty in effect. The Onöndowa ga:, or Seneca, lost more than 10,000 acres, one-third of their treaty-protected land on the Allegany Territory and all of the adjacent Cornplanter Grant which had been given by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to Chief Cornplanter and his heirs in perpetuity. The Cornplanter Tract also held special religious meaning for the followers of Gaiwi:yoh (Good Word), the spiritual teachings of the Seneca Prophet Sganyadaí:yoh who received the visions there that became the foundation of the traditional belief system. More than 600 Seneca were removed from their homes and ancestral lands and forced to relocate to suburban housing developments. Tight-knit communities were broken, families who had lived in near proximity for generations were separated and overnight, they were thrust into a new lifestyle that brought with it irreversible cultural consequences. The communities where they had lived were torched and bulldozed-Jonöhsade:gëh (Cornplanter), Sunfish, Jönya:dih (Shongo), Jöë hesta (Red House), Jonegano:h (Coldspring), Bay State, Ganödagayösgeh (Old Town), O neya geh gëhö:de (Bone Run), Ha deyoya:ya kdöh (Quaker Bridge), and Onoville-landscapes with associated rituals, traditions, stories and sacred places that shaped the lives and sense of identity of those who lived there. Although the taking of Native lands for public works projects is not unique in-and-of-itself, this story is distinctly different in how the Seneca approached the flagrant attack on their sovereignty. Kinzua Dam was a flashpoint in Seneca history and they used it as a catalyst amid irreplaceable cultural losses to ensure their continued survival as a sovereign nation. Against a backdrop of a federal Indian termination policy, pork-barrel politics, and undisclosed plans for private hydropower generation, the Seneca came together as a united force in an attempt to save their land, their culture and their way of life.

When Eddie and the boys catch three of Dawson's men destroying telegraph equipment, the Judge releases them and this leads to the showdown between the two sides. This film has the dubious distinction of being both the eighth and the eighteenth in Eddie Dean's P.R.C. series of westerns. It showed up again in late 1948, minus the color and a couple of the songs, but with a new title, "Prairie Outlaws." P.R.C. (Eagle-Lion on the 2nd release) did not bother to inform the exhibitors that they were being sold a changed-title, re-issue with a shortened running time, nor did they tag the film as such. Truth-in-advertising was not a big sticky point in 1948. Both films find the Army refusing the request for protection from Bill Butler (Lee Bennett), in charge of stringing the Western Telegraph Company's transcontinental wire, so Captain Rogers (Lee Roberts as Bob Allen)of the Arizona Rangers assigns Eddie Dean (Eddie Dean), Stormy Day (Lash LaRue as Al LaRue) and Soapy Jones (Roscoe Ates)to guard the project. Drake Dawson (Terry Frost)fears the coming of the telegraph will bring an end to his lawless activities in the town of Preston.

Through activism and writing he strove to create a philosophical position called "left biocentrism," blending social justice with the tenets of deep ecology.

42103 ::: The Power of Community: How Cuba Survived Peak Oil (2006) ::: documentary ::: The documentary, "The Power of Community - How Cuba Survived Peak Oil," was inspired when Faith Morgan and Pat Murphy took a trip to Cuba through Global Exchange in August, 2003. That year Pat had begun studying and speaking about worldwide peak oil production. In May Pat and Faith attended the second meeting of The Association for the Study of Peak Oil and Gas, a European group of oil geologists and scientists, which predicted that mankind was perilously close to having used up half of the world's oil resources. When they learned that Cuba underwent the loss of over half of its oil imports and survived, after the fall of the Soviet Union in 1990, the couple wanted to see for themselves how Cuba had done this. During their first trip to Cuba, in the summer of 2003, they traveled from Havana to Trinidad and through several other towns on their way back to Havana. They found what Cubans call "The Special Period" astounding and Cuban's responses very moving. Faith found herself wanting to document on film Cuba's successes so that what they had done wouldn't be lost. Both of them wanted to learn more about Cuba's transition from large farms or plantations and reliance on fossil-fuel-based pesticides and fertilizers, to small organic farms and urban gardens. Cuba was undergoing a transition from a highly industrial society to a sustainable one. Cuba became, for them, a living example of how a country can successfully traverse what we all will have to deal with sooner or later, the reduction and loss of finite fossil fuel resources. In the fall of 2003 Pat and Faith had the opportunity to return to Cuba to study its agriculture. It was a wonderful trip. They saw much of the island, met many farmers and urban gardeners, scientists and engineers - traveling more than 1700 miles, from one end of Cuba to the other. It was all they had hoped for and more. In 2004 Community Service, Inc. (CSI) began raising money and organizing a third trip (October), to film in Cuba. Greg Green, cinematographer and director of The End of Suburbia documentary, was the chief videographer. Faith Morgan shot the second camera, John Morgan did still photography and Megan Quinn, Outreach Director of CSI, was sound director. After their return from Cuba, they secured assistance and direction from Tom Blessing IV, producer, and Eric Johnson, post-production supervisor and editor. Together, they bring over 40 years combined experience in film and television production. The goals of this film are to give hope to the developed world as it wakes up to the consequences of being hooked on oil, and to lift American's prejudice of Cuba by showing the Cuban people as they are. The filmmakers do this by having the people tell their story on film. It's a story of their dedication to independence and triumph over adversity, and a story of cooperation and hope. Several Cubans expressed the belief that living on an island, with its natural boundaries, breeds awareness that there are limits to natural resources. Everyone who has worked on the documentary hopes that, seeing this film, people will also see the world on which we live, as another, much larger, island.

Hans, the spy, who wishes to obtain possession of the documents, plans to kidnap under false pretenses Frances Dagmar, the typist, who holds the keys of the safe where the plans are stored. She is led to take a ride in an auto; she is bound and gagged and thrown into the woods. Fortunately, she recovers quicker than the plotters thought, and races to the nearest telephone to give to the engineer an account of her experience. The message is received just after the burglary has been committed, and the thief is seen escaping by means of climbing a roof. His retreat is cut off, with the exception of one means of escape, and that is, by jumping on to the telegraph wires that run across the street, landing on the roof of the adjoining property, and thereby effecting his escape. This is a nerve-wrecking incident for one who is expecting the wires to break and let him down at any minute, but he successfully escapes. It is expected that he would take a train and leave the city immediately, so the engineer and his typist decide to take this train, hoping that they may see him. To avoid creating suspicion, the typist is disguised as a man. They quickly find that they are on the very same train as the thief himself, and make preparations to hold him up at the point of the revolver. Unfortunately for them, the thief sees them in earnest conversation and suspects their intention. Divesting himself rapidly of his overcoat, he lays in wait for the attack, wrestling the revolver from the engineer. They have an extremely excitable and fierce struggle on the rear of the train, where ultimately the engineer is thrown clean off the boards onto the railway siding. The typist, who has witnessed the struggle, runs up to the rescue. The thief seeing her with the revolver and about to shoot climbs up into the top of the train, where he is followed by the woman. Just at the moment when she reaches the top of the carriage, she loses the revolver. The thief, quick to realize his opportunity, rushes at her, and they have a fierce struggle on top of the train, which is still going at full speed. After biting, kicking and wrestling, he is able to throw the woman off the top of the train. The thief escapes and advises his employers of his success and his experience. Realizing the still greater danger now from the discovery of the theft, they decide to get rid of the woman at all costs. Knowing that she is due to keep an appointment at a place adjoining a building used for the storage of lions, they fix ropes to the cage doors and thread the same up to the roof. Having locked the door and made sure that the woman could not escape, they climb onto the roof of the building, pull up the ropes and thus free a number of wild lions, which bound out into the room and confront the typist. She is terror-stricken for some time and escapes into another room, but discovering a prong used by the lion-keepers, she is enabled to drive back the lions out of the room, and after a desperate struggle closes the door after them. While this is going on she fails to see one lion that escapes into the anteroom. Thinking herself free, she swoons away. While in this state, the lion that she had not counted upon, bounds into the room by smashing the door and immediately attacks her. She is mauled for some few seconds before she recovers. Then a fierce struggle takes place, and only in the nick of time does the engineer come upon the spot and shoot the lion.

42139 ::: A Bicicleta e O Escuro (2008) ::: biography ::: Documentary about two popular Brazilian artists, Mauricinho Hippie and Escurinho from Campininha, and their irreverent cultural activism to stand for the art and the environment. Statement: In the last years of the decade of 70 and first years of the 80 decade, there was a Hippie Market in Goiania: an art and handcraft market that was held at Civic Square(the main square of Goiania Historical Center). The Hippie Market was a place for shopping and a meeting point of all society, mainly of intellectuals, artists, craftsmen, some thinkers and politic militants. Among all, two characters were remarkable and were always present at Hippie Market: Mauricinho Hippie and the percussionist Mr. Dark. Mauricinho was, perhaps, the first, clear and deprived of diversity, expression in Goiania. He was a young man, also a musician, that used to ride his ornamented bike, with his half naked body all painted and covered with feathers and indigenous ornaments. People from the city called him gay and homosexual. He threw kisses for everybody. He used to pass and arrive absolute, because somehow he had acquired respect from the city. And even those who didn't get close to him, enjoyed seeing Mauricinho pass by in his bike, coloring the air and our soul. In the Independence Parades he was always there occupying his extra-official position of expression. It wasn't difficult to imagine following him a huge and varied stroll of 'Carajas' and Caiapos' (indians), warriors, gays, transvestites, lesbians, urban and rural workers, men, women, children, youths, seniors, nuns, priests, pastors, police. Mr. Dark was also a musician(percussionist) that lived in Campinas, a small town founded before Goiania's construction and that was later on joined to the capital city. He, along with his tambourine and other percussion instruments, was a constant presence in the 'capoeira's' (african fight) circles held in Civic Square. Mr. Dark used to say that Goiania was originated from Campininha and not the opposite as the official thought wanted it to be. Mr. Dark was a straight black man who went to jail many times for various reasons and also suffered the tyranny's repression, perhaps not because of his politician militancy, in which he was not that engaged, but because of his mischievous and "dark" way of situating himself in society and in the limits of his artistic expression. Mr. Dark from Campininha was and is, like many others in Brazil, the clear expression of the word in its anthropological meaning and immortalized by the samba of Geraldo Pereira, a brazilian musician.

Their purpose was to bring about the rise of a so-called Aryan race, a race that would rule the world for a thousand years. This would be their 3rd Reich. To accomplish this nefarious grand scheme, they needed to eradicate certain races from the globe and subjugate others, as well as needing millions of people to believe and follow only them. And so they created a messiah, a god on Earth. His name was Adolf Hitler and he would become the greatest master of manipulating the hearts and souls of mankind in recorded history. From mass hypnosis to blatant propaganda, from control of the media, to eradicating the opposition, all methods were employed. This is the story of how that apocalyptic agenda was brought to fruition and the methods used to control the minds of men, women and children. This is the story of Nazi Propaganda.

In China, workers gather outside the factory, exhorted by their team leader to produce more and make fewer errors. A woman assembles a circuit breaker, and women and children are seen picking through debris or playing in it. Burtynsky concludes with a visit to Shanghai, the world's fastest growing city, where wealth and poverty, high-rises and old neighborhoods are side by side. Canadian photographer 'Edward Burtynsky' (qv) posits that man made landscapes define who we are as people. He sees a certain physical beauty in the order and/or symmetry in some of these landscapes, despite the negative reasons for them or the subsequent degradation they pose to the environment and people around them. The most extreme examples of these landscapes he finds in China. In manufacturing, two examples he photographs are at the opposite ends of the size scale: ship building, where a certain balance is required in the product itself, and electronics assembly. With the latter, it is not only the rows upon rows of laborers doing the exact same task, but the minuteness of and efficiency in what they are producing. Other examples he photographs are villages where electronic waste recycling is the primary industry. Again, there are the extremes of massive waste heaps against the minute components the laborers of all ages are salvaging. Cities are the most aggregate man made landscapes, and he looks specifically at the recent development of Shanghai, perhaps the fastest growing city in terms of absolute growth. But the vastest example he photographs is the construction and subsequent effects of the Three Gorges Dam, where entire villages, looking like bomb sites, are dismantled since they will eventually be under water.

This is a sequel to Falcon Video's first vampire compilation titled "Around Midnight". Understanding the main wrap around story of After Midnight is a little hard to understand with the unintelligible dialog. What is understood is a woman picks up a book of "scary stories" involving vampires that she receives in the mail. The stories in the book are the segments through out the film. The first story, titled "I Want To Be A Vampire", is about a newspaper reporter who does a story on a woman claiming to be a vampire. Once he's in her dwelling however, they both receive a different surprise of their own. The second story is called "A Moment of Darkness". In 'Moment', a woman doctor is fascinated with vampires, logging on to vampire chat rooms, dancing at goth clubs. She finally meets one and learns how horrible it is to really be a vampire. Next story up is called "The Perfect Subject". In "Perfect Subject" a woman sells her body to grimy photographers so long as they "don't touch". When one of her photographers tries to get away with more then what her rules state; he finds himself in serious trouble. The final story actually has nothing to do with vampirisim, which is a tad confusing. It's called "No One Around". This short features underground horror icon Heidi Martinuzzi of Pretty-Scary and Horror Post fame. What I got from it was the world was ravaged by some kind of virus, and she's the last one left. It's like The Omega Man in a sense; basically she's the only one left alive, only without cool freaky mutants to encounter. This brings us back to the wrap around story...

42578 ::: Les fantoches de Miss Hold (1908) ::: short ::: This wonderful and beautifully colored picture is difficult of description, and one must sec it in order to appreciate it. We note with wonder the ingenuity of the photographer who has here made full-grown men appear like midgets measuring not more than six inches in height. We first see these tiny people as they stand on a table performing many interesting tricks under the direction of the Mistress of Ceremonies, Miss Hold, who exercises a sort of magician-like power over them, making them appear and disappear at will. In the first picture we see Miss Hold on the stage with two men, who place a table in the foreground and hand her a magician's outfit. She now takes a niece of paper, which she rolls up, then cuts it in half, and out of each half she forms a cone, from which emerge tiny acrobats. These cunning fellows amuse us with many wonderful stunts, and when they have been restored to their respective cones, a number of wee ballet girls, who execute some very pretty figures, take their place. A man, disguised as a woman, next appears, and when he hops up on Miss Hold's finger we all look on aghast, as we know him to he of ordinary size, and to see him there poised on the woman's finger she holds it extended seems to us little short of marvelous. A clown then jumps up and proceeds with all kinds of funny antics. Three steins are now placed on the table, and when the lids are removed out pop three little clowns. These funny fellows amuse us with adroit pantomime, and when they have finished each returns to his respective stein, the lid of which is tightly closed down by Miss Hold. In the last scene we see Miss Hold carrying a basket containing flowers, which she throws in a heap on the floor, when all at once out of each blossom steps one of the characters who has taken part in the performance, but now, instead of midgets, we see women and men of ordinary size. They group themselves around Miss Hold and form a beautiful picture as the film closes.

Margaret, Edna's sister and a local "beauty operator," is unable to provide much help; her beauty shop is all that stands between herself, her philandering husband, and a small daughter on one side and poverty on the other. A tornado offers their first challenge. Emerging from the storm cellar, blind Mr. Will asks "How bad is it?" "Well," Mose responds, "everything's a little bent, but it's still here." Next, the bottom falls out of the cotton market and Edna's only chance to make the mortgage payment is that she be first to bring her crop to the cotton mill and claim the $100 first prize for doing so.

Is our microwave generation too focused on instant gratification to work to naturally achieve their ideal body type?

42911 ::: La grande séduction (2003) ::: comedy ::: Ste-Marie-La-Mauderne is a small, depressed coastal village in Québec, where even fishing as an industry has died. Almost everyone is on welfare, including Germain Lesage. An option for most townsfolk is to move to the city, something that Germain refuses to do, even though his wife, Hélčne, wants to at least consider it, just because her brother could provide her with a job. The Mayor, Réal Fournier, would sell out the townsfolk in his attempts to lure industry to the town, still with no takers. Part of their catch-22 situation in luring industry there is that there is no doctor, a condition made by one company owned by M. Dupré that would potentially locate his new plastic container factory there. As such, Germain and a few of his friends, Henri Giroux and Yvon Brunet, decide to reach out to every doctor in Québec to see if he/she can be enticed to move there. Due to a little police strong-arming, they get one nibble in the form of thirty-three year old Montréal plastic surgeon, Dr. Christopher Lewis, who is somewhat blackmailed to live in Ste-Marie for one month. Germain figures they have to captivate him on first sight of the town - not easy as the ugliest building is the first thing one sees entering the harbor - which includes giving him Henri's house in which to live, Henri the only person with a half-decent house as the town's sole bank employee and thus the de facto branch manager, although all he really does is cash everyone's welfare checks. They will also use intelligence they gather about him both before his arrival and during his stay - the latter in not the most ethical manner - to cater to his every whim making him think that these items are just everyday aspects of town life regardless of if they even know about what he's talking (cricket matches? beef stroganoff?). But what may be the most difficult part, in the words of Germain, is to make him think that he's in the best place on earth while being in a dinghy. All the while, they also have to manipulate M. Dupré, who may be more and more difficult to manage in his expectations of the town. St. Marie-La-Mauderne is a tiny fishing village in what some may call the middle of nowhere. For eight years the locals have stood in line for weekly welfare checks, wearing patched sweaters and glum expressions, and remembering the good old days when the catch was good, the fishermen were proud, and life seemed a lot more magical. Then one day, a chance at salvation: a small company wants to build a factory on the island, but only if a full-time doctor lives in St. Marie. The situation seems hopeless until a young doctor in Montreal has an unfortunate incident with a traffic cop and finds himself on a boat to the faraway village. But how to convince handsome, young, urbane Dr. Lewis to stay in this dreary little spot on the map? As it turns out, the answer lies in just a bit of seductive subterfuge--along with a tapped phone, a hastily assembled cricket team, and something called Festival de Beef Stroganoff. When the fishes finished in the small fishing village of St. Marie-La-Mauderne eight years ago, the pride and joy of the place ended. The unemployed fishermen have financially supported by the government welfare checks for two weeks and have lived with shame for the month. When a company raises the possibility of building a small factory in the village, the dwellers need only a full-time doctor living in the community to make the dream come true. But they do not find any doctor that want to move to St. Marie-La-Mauderne. When the thirty-three years old Montreal's doctor Christopher Lewis (David Boutin) has an incident in a highway, the former Mayor of St. Marie and presently highway patrolman forces him to stay in the village for a month. Meanwhile, the locals under the leadership of Germain Lesage (Raymond Bouchard) bug his telephone and plot a scheme to convince him to sign a five years contract with the village. A much-needed boost, in the form of a new factory, is promised to the residents of the tiny fishing village St. Marie-La-Mauderne, provided they can lure a doctor to take up full-time residency on the island. Inspired, the villagers devise a scheme to make Dr. Christopher Lewis a local.

43178 ::: The New Rulers of the World (2001) ::: documentary ::: The myths of globalisation have been incorporated into much of our everyday language. "Thinking globally" and "the global economy" are part of a jargon that assumes we are all part of one big global village, where national borders and national identities no longer matter. But what is globalisation? And where is this global village? In 2001, John Pilger made 'The New Rulers of the World', a film exploring the impact of globalisation. It took Indonesia as the prime example, a country that the World Bank described as a 'model pupil' until its 'globalised' economy collapsed in 1998. Globalisation has not only made the world smaller. It has also made it interdependent. An investment decision made in London can spell unemployment for thousands in Indonesia, while a business decision taken in Tokyo can create thousands of new jobs for workers in north-east England. This might seem a very natural development if you live in a country like Britain, with its long international history as a trading nation and imperial power. Bringing the world closer together may throw up new opportunities for cultural and economic interaction, but it also exposes us to the negative aspects of life on a shrinking planet, whether it be the threat of global warming, the international traffic in women for sexual exploitation or the spread of AIDS throughout Africa and Asia.

But for Drew, a different struggle weighs heavily on his mind and in his heart. In 2004, a recurring leg injury forced his withdrawal with 10 miles left in this race, something he never imagined possible. This injury led to a frightening diagnosis of Leukemia (CML). One year later, after the oral chemo Gleevac put his disease in remission, Drew began competing at an elite level again, and winning. But he had unfinished business, and his emotional return to Lake Placid serves as the backbone of this film. Throughout the grueling 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike, and 26.2 mile run, Drew retells his inspirational life story. From his introduction to cycling and early struggles with triathlon to his diagnosis and successful comeback at the famous Ford Ironman World Championship in Kailua-Kona, Drew's story is one of strength, determination, love, family and friendship. Surprisingly funny interviews with family and friends provide more than the usual glimpse into the world of an elite athlete. And with every stroke, pedal, and step Drew takes, you not only root for him, you cheer for what he believes in - a nothing is impossible attitude and a day-to-day appreciation of life. Andrew Johnston overcomes the odds to challenge himself and to inspire others to live life to its fullest. He proves that our only limitations are the ones we set for ourselves.

The company has yet to produce a film, Bobby's personal net worth is virtually zero, and the company only has $2,184 to its name, $1 invested into it personally by Bobby every week since he first decided he wanted to make a movie when he was a child. Bobby believes his fortunes will change when his accountant Afrim changes hats and writes a science-fiction alien invasion screenplay that Bobby thinks all studios will clamor for and has Oscar written all over it. He has a small stable of followers who support his vision in being part of this movie, which eventually includes Daisy as the lead actress, she a stereotypical small town girl looking to make it big in Hollywood. Having just arrived in town, she does not know her way around the Hollywood system,... except on her proverbial back. Bobby is not averse to telling bald-faced lies in his singular focus in getting the picture made and distributed all on this $2,184 as a starting point. It is using several of those lies that he is able to get a verbal confirmation from big studio executive Jerry Renfro to distribute the movie *if* it stars Kit Ramsey, arguably the biggest action star in the world. Using similar lies, Bobby, however, is unable to convince Kit to star in the movie. Kit, who has a weakness for the Laker Girls, is a self-absorbed and paranoid movie star whose life and thus career is largely directed behind the scenes by Terry Stricter, the head of a new age religion called MindHead. Bobby comes up with a scheme that he believes will get around Kit not agreeing to star: film Kit without him knowing that he is being filmed. The only person who knows of the scheme is Dave, Bobby's lowest of low level inside man turned cinematographer who has unofficial (i.e. technically stolen and thus free) access to studio camera equipment and general knowledge of Kit's general day-to-day movements through the studio system. Bobby is able to convince all the other actors that Kit's acting process involves him not interacting with them outside of filming the specific scenes he has with them. Part of Bobby's scheme involves using Kit's general paranoia that aliens truly are invading the planet to get his gut reactions to what is happening within the context of the script. But Bobby knows he has to get Kit to scream the closing lines of the movie "gotcha suckas" for the movie to be a success. Complications ensue when another of the the actors, Carol, tries to go against Bobby's policy of not making contact with Kit outside of filming, and when Bobby is required to hire a production assistant cum stunt double cum acting double, whose job in part is to stand-in for the requisite Kit Ramsey naked ass shot. Through it all, Bobby will know if he has made it in Hollywood if he gets a specific sign specifically from the heavens in the form of FedEx. Hollywood, today: Bobby Bowfinger, a run-down actor-producer-director, is reading a script which a friend has written. Completely convinced of its quality, he decides to take a last shot at fame and fortune. But the script is not that easy to sell, and a famous producer promises him to do it, but there is one condition: Kit Ramsey, Hollywood's number one star, has to be in it. So, Bobby tries his luck with Kit - who says no - and then decides to shoot the film himself. Together with the cheapest team available in Southern California, an aspiring beauty from Ohio, a diva who is just a little over the hill, a key-holding gofer from a major studio and a goon hired away from burger-flipping, Bobby sets out to shoot the science-fiction-film starring Kit Ramsey - who does not even know he's being filmed. When grasping director Bobby Bowfinger finally finds the 'perfect' script, a cheesy sci-fi story called "Chubby Rain", he decides to put everything on the line and give it a shot... gathering together an ambitious young Ohio actress, a melodramatic stage actress and a laid back male hopeful. Armed with a handful of illegal immigrants for a crew, a tiny budget, and equipment stolen from a nearby studio, Bowfinger lacks just one thing... Hollywood's hottest action star, Kit Ramsey. Refusing to give up when Kit doesn't take the part, Bowfinger and his crew do whatever it takes to complete the flick - secretly filming Kit without his permission and using his nerdy look-alike brother to fill in for remaining scenes.

From the first call of "Action" to the "world" premiere of each village production, The Peddler is a delightful documentary valentine to the magic of moviemaking.

Their stories tell of men in search of something. Nice men, those who even show up on Christmas Eve and the lonely ones, who sometimes fall in love. The women are well acquainted with love and they know how to keep it at a distance when they work, because a client can never be anything but a client. Their words paint the picture of a world that lives in a few square meters and that shuts down at 6:30 p.m., when all around them the city is working and growing. "I wanted to make a film that adapts itself to the rhythm of the waiting in these places and that could find the right relationship between exhibition and modesty, between what is natural and its representation. Something both delicate and cruel. A film that touches a sort of intimacy and that, in certain moments, knows how to leave us on the threshold, inside a tent. All this has brought to life a film that is both open, like the big, airy space I think I have left to the spectator, and closed, like a door we shut in order to remain alone for a moment." A woman talks about a man. Then about another. An other. This woman is also a prostitute. That man could be a client. Or a brother, a neighbour, a boss, a childhood friend, a husband, a shopkeeper round the corner, a lover, a son, a passer-by. A wish to touch this daily life behind the neon lights. Routine, tenderness, desire, waiting, ordinary - something about intimacy.

43550 ::: The Last Straw (2008) ::: documentary ::: Charles Bukowski didn't like to do live poetry readings. He was blunt about this; but audiences thought he was joking. He did readings for the money; usually only for a few hundred dollars. But, by 1980 his book royalties, advances for film rights, and other income provided him with the means to be able to stop doing poetry readings and focus on his writing. His performances were legendary; cultivating anarchy, he'd goad the audience to mutiny, and usually challenge somebody, or anybody, to fight. In editing this performance, the first impulse is to pick out the poems; but in reviewing the raw footage, it became obvious that the entire reading is solid state. What happens between the poems is not filler. It's performance art. Only a few of his readings were filmed. This performance on March 31st, 1980 at the Sweetwater Inn in Redondo Beach, California, turned out to be the very last poetry reading Bukowski ever gave, even though he lived and wrote for another 14 years. The video of that reading remained in storage for over 25 years, and is presented here for the first time. Writer and Poet Charles Bukowski works have been made into film, most notably Tales of Ordinary Madness with Ben Gazzara, Bar Fly directed by Barbet Schroeder with Mickey Rourke and Faye Dunaway, and Factotum with Matt Dillon. A documentary of his life was released in 2003 titled Born Into This.

The woman disappears. Later, she's found dead by her former associates, Mike and Carlino, small-time hoods, in Susy's basement apartment. (Both occupants of the apartment are then absent.) The doll woman's newer partner in crime, Harry Rote, who murdered her for self-dealing, presses Mike and Carlino into a scheme to recover the doll, which contains a fortune in smuggled heroin. After disposing of the body, the thugs return while Susy is present to continue their search. They assume Susy's blindness will enable them to search her apartment under her very nose for the doll. In Sam's absence, Mike pretends to be an old friend of Sam's, while the three together spin for Susy a story of a murder investigation of her husband from which only the finding of the missing doll can save him. Rote is a predator, and his stalking of Susy becomes ever more obvious as the blind woman's predicament becomes ever more desperate. While trying to smuggle a cache of heroin hidden in a doll into the US through JFK from a flight originating in Montreal, Lisa spots an adversary at JFK, so she hands off the doll to an unsuspecting man she just met, a New York photographer named Sam Hendrix, from who she plans on retrieving the doll later. However, Sam misplaces the doll once he gets home. That adversary, a sadistic criminal named Harry Roat, using an argument they can't refuse, convinces two of Lisa's just released from prison associates, Mike Talman and Carlino, to assist him in retrieving the doll from Sam's Greenwich Village apartment, them without even knowing what's inside, or without any of the three knowing that Hendrix has no idea where the doll is anymore. Roat, Talman and Carlino believe their task is all the more easy when they learn that Sam's wife, Susy Hendrix, is blind. As Susy is still adjusting to her recent blindness, Sam does whatever he can to make her as self-sufficient as possible, which she often still resents. They concoct a seemingly innocuous plan to infiltrate Susy's life while Sam is conveniently sent out of town on business. If the plan goes awry at any point, Susy would have no idea that her life would be in danger. What Roat, Talman and Carlino may be unaware of is that Susy does have eyes in the form of the Hendrix's precocious adolescent neighbor, Gloria, who knows more about the missing doll than she initially lets on, and that Susy may have certain advantages in life due to her blindness. After an airplane trip, a young woman asks Susie's husband, Sam, to keep a doll for her to avoid spoiling the surprise of her daughter's gift. But the real reason is to avoid her partner, Harry Roat, whom she hopes to cheat of the drugs hidden in the doll. Harry discovers her treachery, murders her and leaves the body in Susie's apartment, where he has tracked Sam and the doll. He concocts an elaborate plan, involving Mike and Carlino, small-time hoods, to get Susie, who recently lost her sight in a fire, to reveal the doll's hiding place. They lure Sam away and take advantage of Susie's blindness, posing as an old friend, a police detective, and a father-son pair of eccentrics. Susie eventually catches on and, with the help of her young neighbor, Gloria, shows everyone that she is indeed a "world-champion blind lady." When Sam Hendrix carries a doll across the Canada-US border, he sets of a chain of events that will lead to a terrifying ordeal for his blind wife, Susy. The doll was stuffed with heroin and when it cannot be located, its owner, a Mr. Roat, stages a piece of theatre in an attempt to recover it. He arranges for Sam to be away from the house for a day and then has two con men, Mike Talman and a Mr. Carlito, alternately encourage or scare Susy into telling them where the doll is hidden. Talman pretends to be an old friend of Sam's while Carlito pretends to be a police officer. Despite their best efforts they make little headway as Susy has no idea where the doll might be, leading Mr. Roat to take a somewhat more violent approach to getting the information from her. In Montreal, Lisa brings a hand made doll stuffed with heroine to New York. However, in JFK Airport, she sees a stranger waiting for her and she asks the photographer passenger Sam Hendrix to keep the doll for her and she meets the stranger. A couple of days later, the small time crooks Mike Talman and his partner Sergeant Carlino are invited for a mysterious meeting in the apartment of Susy Hendrix. While in the apartment, they find the body of Lisa hidden in a wardrobe. Roat arrives and blackmails them with the fact that their fingerprints are everywhere in the apartment. They have to help him remove Lisa's body but Roat offers them a large amount of money to find the doll. When Susy returns, Mike pretends that he is an old friend, and Carlino and Roat pushes Susy in a sick game, trying to find where the doll might be.

Sam Klebanov and Alexander Kamionsky both came to Sri Lanka on vacation, landing in Colombo in the morning of December 26, 2004, just an hour before the tsunami hit the island's coastline. The devastation was enormous. Over 35,000 people were killed and around half a million lost their homes. In the aftermath of this catastrophe, thousands of people, who happened to be in this region, became instant volunteers. They were not professional relief workers but ordinary people from around the globe. Most of them were just tourists, while the others were Sri Lankans who wanted to help their fellow countrymen, permanent foreign residents of the island, or people who rushed there from all over the world to help the victims. These spontaneously organized groups became the major relief force in the affected areas. And long before the internationally established organisations took their first steps in the region, they had commenced operations without delay. Sam Klebanov and Alexander Kamionsky joined one of these groups (IMPAKT Aid), which provided water, food, medicine and other essential supplies for thousands of survivors on the South-West coast of Sri Lanka. And as film professionals they took care to constantly record their work using a small, non-obtrusive mini-DV camera.

43669 ::: End of Bitterness (2017) ::: documentary ::: In the city of Xi'an, the ancient capital of China, there are about half a thousand beggars clustered in dense pockets near temples, universities, and around the city center. Nearly all have traveled there, by bus and train, from neighboring Gansu Province, or from other parts of the still-impoverished countryside. Most share similar motives: they are farmers who beg throughout slack winters, after the agricultural season has come to an end; they are disabled people seeking to supplement meager welfare income; they are retirees earning money to help pay for their grandchild's tuition. Together, these actors, with their array of motivations and desires, constitute a complex social class, one which is deeply embedded in genetic make-up of contemporary China. The End of Bitterness sets out to explore the phenomenon of begging and the positionality of beggars in a rapidly changing society. The film follows the lives of three individuals: a former village-chief who became a beggar after growing tired of local politics, a retired farmer who begs to earn money to send her grandson to school, and a middle-aged man who turned to begging after an earthquake destroyed his family's home. Through these three episodic vignettes, we are offered a window into the everyday lives of beggars, both in the cities where they work and in the rural communities that they call home. We find that while begging is a practice that takes place in urban space, it is a phenomenon which is born of poverty in the countryside. Chinese beggars are ordinary rural people who engage in begging not simply as a method of survival, but as a means to achieving modest dreams.

It may be a "pop culture" approach to this material, but it is one that will speak to today's youth with a new voice.As she uncovers the roots of a timeless conflict between the natural forces of the Mother and those beings that would rend the world asunder, Mel will come to realize that the world around her is dangerously out of joint.

As a result, emerging filmmakers influenced by foreign directors such as Godard, Kurosawa and Fellini coupled with the social climate and a struggling studio system, converged to create a new kind of moviemaking. Through their choice of material, filmmakers such as Francis Ford Coppola, Martin Scorsese, Robert Altman, Peter Bogdanovich, William Friedkin, Roger Corman and Paul Schrader revolutionized mainstream movies and for the first time personal visions were coming out of the studio system.

He is both artistically and economically dependent on the clergy and is subject to the grace and envy of the potent Popes. Since Pope Giulio III nominates him cantore ponteficio for life, the highest position in Rome for a musician at that time, Palestrina feels that he, at the age of thirty, is at the height of his career. However, the envy of the next Pope, Paul IV, and that of his singer-colleagues lead to him losing the title and he is dismissed. He is deeply shocked and realizes that the greedy Roman clergy is more interested in secular politics than in the spirituality of music. This realization obsesses the musician and causes his artistic counter-reaction. Within a few years he develops a new style in polyphonic art, the genus novus. A balance between word and sound and the equivalence of all voices are prominent. Music becomes freer than ever

The womanizer who took over Sir James' name and number - who Sir James detests as sullying that good name and number by relying too much on gadgetry to get the work done - has moved onto other things, and Sir James' nebbish nephew Jimmy Bond has proved to be a disappointment as a spy and a man, and thus are not candidates for the job. Sir James politely declines, until a specific incident not only brings him out of retirement, but places him in the top job at MI6.

Handing the missive to one of his comrades he instructs the latter to carry it to Sister Angelica, a member of a cloistered community, who in years gone by had been his sweetheart. The messenger hurries away toward the convent, arriving there just as the good nuns are going into the chapel to pray. It is the duty of Sister Angelica to care for the altar of the Virgin Mother, and when the other sisters have passed out after prayers, she remains behind to attend to her duties. The messenger, who has stolen into the convent unseen, at an opportune time presents himself before Sister Angelica and hands her the note. As the good woman reads the lines, the love that has lain dormant in her heart for years, suddenly awakens and bursts forth, impelling her to go to the dying man, but suddenly she remembers her vows, and restrains her emotions. The soldier retires, and soon the Mother Superior enters the chapel where she finds Sister Angelica in tears, and upon questioning her, the latter hands the note to the Mother begging leave to go in the name of humanity. The Mother refuses to countenance such an unusual procedure, and reminding Sister Angelica of her vows, leaves her alone to give vent to her feelings. The heart-broken sister falls upon her knees before the shrine of the Blessed Mother, and lifting up her eyes in humble supplication, she invokes the spiritual aid of the Virgin. Her prayers are heard, for suddenly the statue of the Virgin Mother becomes animated, and descending from its place in the niche, stands before the awestruck nun, instructing her to go quickly to the side of the dying soldier. The good sister steals out of the convent, leaving the Virgin, who has been transformed into a facsimile of herself, to take her place among the other nuns, so that she will not be missed. The messenger accompanies the kind-hearted nun to the camp, where she arrives just in time to give religious solace to the dying man, and after a few gentle words from the good sister the brave soldier peacefully passes away in her arms.

It tells the story, from the viewpoint of Brooks' grandchildren, giving it a youthful, contemporary voice. The survival of history depends on the sharing of first-hand accounts. It is this human connection across generations that makes the film's message so deeply emotional and poignant. As a boy, filmmaker Chris Woods had a neighbor named Jim Brooks. A soft-spoken man, Brooks' unassuming facade was hiding a daring past as a Mustang pilot during World War II. On rare occasions, Brooks would tell young Woods stories of that time and place, firing the young boy's imagination with images of aerial battles and death-defying engagements. Brooks couldn't know at the time, but by recounting his stories, he was guaranteeing that at least one more generation would hold these memories for safe keeping. In truth, those stories did more than that. Woods went on to become an accomplished pilot and plane restorer. A tired old Mustang came across his path, and he decided to paint it identically to the Mustang Brooks flew in Europe called "February." It would become Woods' homage to the man who ignited his desire for flight and helped fuel his passion for history. But more importantly, "February" would inspire Brooks, a man whose stoic reluctance to share his war stories had prevented his family from knowing his courageous past, to break his silence. Partaking in the reunion of their grandfather with the Mustang "February," we watch as Jim's grandchildren begin to appreciate more deeply their grandfather's contributions to his generation and theirs, and in the process gain a first-hand experience for themselves that none could have imagined. Woods' interviews with Brooks, his grandchildren, and other airmen who were touched by the Mustang's role in history are cut together to create a compelling narrative to accompany the stunning photography. The raw wartime photos of the ace and the Mustang in their prime add depth and visual impact to this memorable, emotional, and powerful film.

The relationships formed through shared experiences contrast sharply with the media-shaped views Americans and Muslims have of each other. Humor, honesty and a willingness to be challenged all bring individuals closer to each other and the relationships that develop disarm hidden stereotypes. The relationship between the Muslim and Western worlds has been cast as a "clash of cultures," a war between civilizations in which one is destined to prevail over the other. But is this so?

But can regular citizens really change the system nowadays? The 60's activist, Tom Hayden, advises them and compares his own experiences. Amazingly, in the process, these individuals must change themselves. A ballet-teaching anti-war protester with an expensive sports-car, a Pro-Life activist cocktail waitress, a black-block anarchist with dreams of hip-hop stardom, a Native American union organizer, and a Log Cabin Republican all walk into a bar? okay, so maybe they don't. But these five adamantly outspoken Americans all take turns holding court in director Louis Yansen's documentary, which obstinately celebrates our First Amendment and the wide-open plurality of opinion that makes this country great, even during a politically charged time when dissent is more often than not equated with treason. Shot over a period of several years, Yansen's film becomes fascinating in the way he's able to chart his young ideologues evolving over time, and we see them choose their battles wisely (and sometimes unwisely) in the face of many obstacles, including increased government clampdowns on political activism, and the indignity of cordoned-off, faraway "Free Speech Zones." Chicago Seven alum Tom Hayden supplies a running commentary, but Yansen wisely never chooses sides, instead espousing a perhaps antiquated American ideal - one where all points of view will be heard and respected.

From Freud to Vermeer, from Nazi design to the importance of drawing and the films of Leni Riefenstahl, Gustav Metzger speaks candidly and brilliantly of the influences which have shaped both his own work and the culture of our time. Gustav Metzger witnessed the rise of Nazism as a small child in Nurnberg in the early 1930s. He escaped to Great Britain in 1939 and trained as an artist before founding the auto-destructive art movement in 1959 which has influenced a generation of younger artists including The Who's Pete Townshend. Metzger pioneered the use of computers in art and with his 'Liquid Crystal Light Projections' which were incorporated into the stage shows of Cream and The Who at London's Roundhouse, he defined the visual culture of the psychedelic era. Ken McMullen's Metzger was commissioned by the Interdisciplinary Arts Department of Arts Council England as part of the Pioneers in Art and Science documentary series, and is designed to fully utilise the potential of the DVD format.

44568 ::: Tierra de los Padres (2011) ::: drama ::: Fatherland brings a rigorous structural approach to a site of monuments that is also a place of movement, criss-crossed daily by tourists and locals. The grounds are laid out like city blocks, with wide avenues branching onto laneways filled with elaborate mausoleums. The film does not attempt to tour the cemetery as one would on foot, however, but rather moves chronologically through the history enshrined there. A series of individuals are framed in static compositions as they read aloud excerpts from the writings of noteworthy Argentines interred within. (Some license has been taken, as the final resting places of certain figures represented - such as journalist Rodolfo Walsh, who was among the "disappeared" - remain unknown. The result is both poetic and political.) Beginning in the early 1800s, this history comprises civil war, battles with the country's native population, the conflict between the city and the provinces, and years of military dictatorship. This structure is intercut with sequences of daily life in Recoleta, including the cemetery's custodians, whose work amid the tombs alludes to the ongoing construction of the nation's history.

They bring him to the corral, where Bart warns Ken to stay away from Alice. The riding contest the next day is a complete victory for the Roan who throws all comers and is about to kill Curley before Tarzan leaps into the corral and fights off the savage stallion.

44582 ::: The Go-Betweens: That Striped Sunlight Sound (2005) ::: music ::: This curiosity piece is perhaps an essential document for fans of Australia's Go-Betweens. That Striped Sunlight Sound (a feeling Mssrs. Forster and McLennan have used in print to describe the band's sound) consists first of a DVD containing two different films of shows done at the Tivoli Theatre in the band's hometown of Brisbane in August of 2005. The first gig places Robert Forster and Grant McLennan up close and personal playing acoustic versions of "Black Mule" and "Clouds." The band enters on "Boundary Rider," and the magic truly begins. Carrying on through "Born to a Family" and "Streets of Your Town," the Go-Betweens are a band that sounds on-stage just a little more immediate than in the studio, which is a compliment. Other tracks include "Here Comes a City," "The Devil's Eye," "People Say," and "Karen," among others. The performance is inspired, loose, and lively. There is also a CD component to the package that carries the entire 70-minute show. The other gig on the DVD is a special "songwriter's session," held on Sunday, August 7. This film is quite wonderful in that it features Forster and McLennan playing acoustically and commenting on the process of songwriting, the songs themselves, and the Go-Betweens' history. In many ways this is the real gem in the package. It includes versions of "Lee Remick," "Cattle and Cane," "Head Full of Steam," "Bachelor Kisses," "Dive for Your Memory," and five other cuts. The intimate charm of this film is irresistible in that the pair are home, relaxed, and wide open. There are no pretensions on display here, just an honest look at what makes Forster and McLennan tick as a pair and as individual writers. This is a fine addition to the Go-Betweens' catalog.

The cell phone-shot documentary, 'The vanishing wings of Kokkarebellur' is the work of Shravan Regret Iyer of Bengaluru. This 10-minute long documentary highlights the issues surrounding the decline in the number of fish-eating birds migrating to Kokkarebellur. The documentary was released by freedom fighter, H.S. Doreswamy in Bengaluru recently. Decades ago, the villagers used to pray God seeking that these fish-eating birds must nest near their houses so that they could use the droppings of these birds as natural fertilizers. Such was the significance of these birds to this village and the villagers. Times have changed and the villagers now prefer chemical fertilizers to natural fertilizers. Today, there are only about 200 trees left in the village where the birds nest. Rapid urbanization and environmental degradation by the mankind has reduced the number of favourable conditions required for these birds to nest here. Illegal sand mining along the river beds leads to the shrinking of water bodies which provide food for these migratory birds. Also, there are about four sugarcane factories, one each in Pandavapura, Koppa, K M Doddi and Mandya, which discharge their effluents into the river Shimsha thereby affecting the aquatic life. This in turn results in non-availability of food for these birds. There has been an increase in demand for firewood to cook food and also to burn bricks that are manufactured here for local use. This has caused the decline in the number of trees both in and around the village. Every season is a new life for these birds. How many more seasons of life do we intend to give these birds? With the nesting grounds soon disappearing, who will know of these birds if they are gone forever?

Chess becomes the metaphor by which Helene attempts not to escape her world but to know more about the world outside of her quite confined existence as a poor chambermaid. her relationship with Kevin Kline is platonic and she appreciates his guidance into this new world. She meets new people and encounters obstacles in entering this expanded universe but she earns respect and adulation from the chess set and surprisingly from her family and especially from her husband who she loves dearly.

It is a blending and amplification of who she really is and acceptance by those whom she loves.

Tonight Mr. Clay recounts a true story he heard years before about a rich man who paid a poor sailor 5 guineas to father a child with his beautiful young wife. Levinsky says that's a popular old sailor's legend and not true. Mr. Clay has no heir for his fortune and no wife either. He resolves to make the story true... Levinsky approaches Virginie, another clerk's mistress, and strikes a bargain for 300 guineas. Now to find the sailor... Late nineteenth century Macao. Mr. Clay is an aged wealthy merchant, who is unaware that he is disliked because of his ruthless business dealings and thus largely alone in the world, about which he probably would not care regardless. His only companion is his clerk of seven years, Elishama. Clay believes in history, not in prophesy. During one of Clay and Elishama's evening social sessions together where Elishama generally reads from his accounting records, they discuss a story concerning a wealthy aged businessman, his young wife and a sailor that both have heard, that has largely circulated through the seafaring community, and that they now believe to be an old sailors' tale. As such, Clay wants the story to become a prophesy come true by his doing. He entrusts Elishima with finding a young woman to play his wife, while he himself will find the appropriate sailor within the streets of Macao. His goal is to have the sailor be able to tell the story as it happened to him and thus become a widespread story on reality. Who Elishima finds to play the wife is Virginie, who used to live in the house Clay currently owns and in which she has not been since she was a child. Virginie has her own motives for agreeing despite despising Clay. Similarly, Paul, the young Danish sailor Clay finds, has his own reasons for following Clay. The question becomes if Clay, Virginie, Paul or even Elishima for that matter will come out of the scenario what they wanted going into it.

While studying Sanskrit and Tibetan at the University of Washington, he takes up Tibetan Buddhism as an academic pursuit and offers to help Tibetan refugees - brought to the U.S. to teach - to assimilate into American life. He is assigned to live with the family of Deshung Rinpoche, one of the most learned lamas to escape Tibet. Smith teaches English to Deshung, and Deshung teaches Smith about Tibetan culture and Buddhism. In 1959, Red Army Soldiers destroy thousands of homes and temples. Tibetan refugees are forced to leave behind countless artifacts, the sole evidence of their culture. A 1500-year literary tradition, in Sanskrit and Tibetan, is in danger of disappearing. Smith travels through India, Bhutan and Nepal, using letters of introduction from Deshung Rinpoche to meet other Tibetan refugees. In India, he studies with notable lamas and, in 1968, starts working at the Library of Congress field office in New Delhi. Smith's home soon becomes an intellectual haven for scholars, officials and Buddhists of all nationalities. The last known official handwritten catalog of Tibetan documents and their hidden locations comes into his possession. It identifies where the monks have hidden their precious libraries for safe-keeping. A U.S.-sponsored cooperative assistance program gives Smith the opportunity to save these artifacts. Public Law 480 initiative (PL480) encourages developing countries to buy surplus U.S. wheat and other agricultural products. This program becomes known as "Food for Peace" under the Eisenhower and Kennedy administrations. But funds owed to the U.S. are mounting and blocked currencies, including the Indian Rupee, cannot be used for repayment, so PL480 is amended to create a kind of "Food for Thought" program. Smith and his colleagues decide that the Library of Congress should purchase these unique publications. Smith begins making copies of rare and important texts that have been smuggled out of Tibet by exiles of the four main Tibetan Buddhist lineages. These books are sent to the US and placed in university libraries for dissemination. In the late '90s, Smith realizes the power of the Internet and creates the first comprehensive library of Tibetan texts. His goal is to digitize all of the 20,000+ books in his collection so that he can return these sacred texts to native Tibetan speakers, wherever they live, and make them accessible to everyone, even in the most remote monasteries and villages, and preserve the knowledge they contain for humanity. Before he can complete his life's work, Gene Smith dies in 2010. Thousands mourn his passing and hail him as the man who saved Tibetan culture.

As the end draws closer, long repressed feelings of grudging resentment and mistrust cause jealousy, selfishness, and bitterness between the siblings to surface. It's the turn of the nineteenth into twentieth centuries in Sweden. The interrelationships between four adult women - sisters Agnes, Karin and Maria, and Agnes' longtime housemaid Anna - are presented. Karin and Maria, both married, have returned to the family country manor estate, where they stay on occasion as they lead their lives, to watch over Agnes, who is on her deathbed, suffering in pain from the final throes of her illness. Karin and Maria's return is despite the three sisters having an unspoken strained and standoffish relationship with each other. Cold and stern Karin is all repressed emotions as she hides behind a proper decorum, those repressed emotions including a hatred for her diplomat husband, Fredrik. Self-absorbed Maria is the quietly but calculatingly sexual one, her slight smiles and furtive glances only noticed by her lovers, who include David, Agnes' doctor. In her spontaneous cries of pain for assistance, Agnes calls out for Anna instead of her sisters. Agnes does call out for her sisters when she has the forethought to think about what is happening.

Filmmaker Rea Tajiri's family was among the 120,000 Japanese and Japanese Americans who were imprisoned in internment camps after the attack on Pearl Harbor. And like so many who were in the camps, Tajiri's family wrapped their memories of that experience in a shroud of silence and forgetting. Ruminating on the difficult nature of representing the past - especially a past that exists outside traditional historic accounts - Tajiri blends interviews, memorabilia, a pilgrimage to the camp where her mother was interned, and the story of her father, who had been drafted pre-Pearl Harbor and returned to find his family's house removed from its site. Throughout, she surveys the impact of images (real images, desired images made real, and unrealized dream images). The film draws from a variety of sources: Hollywood spectacle, government propaganda, newsreels, memories of the living, and spirits of the dead, as well as Tajiri's own intuitions of a place she has never visited, but of which she has a memory. More than simply calling attention to the gaps in the story of the Japanese American internment, this important film raises questions about collective history - questions that prompt Tajiri to daringly re-imagine and re-create what has been stolen and what has been lost.

She does so to be able to stand on her own two feet for the first time in her life, something she probably could not have done if she remained in a job washing hair at a beauty salon. Working at the mine does not sit well with her father, Hank Aimes, who also works at the mine and who, like the other male workers, believes she is taking a job away from a man. Hank has believed that all Josey's problems are of her own doing, ever since she, unmarried, had Sammy while she was still in high school.

Among Josey's coworkers is Bobby Sharp, who many believe is Sammy's biological father.

Unable to withstand the abuse, Josey decides to sue the company for sexual harassment. She does so with the help of Glory and her husband Kyle's friend, Bill White, an ex-New York lawyer who is facing his own emotional demons. They being able to get any corroboration is difficult as all Josey's male coworkers are standing together, and all the women fear retribution by the company and/or their male coworkers after the fact.

It is told mostly by the Hudson River's commercial fishermen themselves. Henry Gourdine is an 85 year-old African American resident of Ossining, NY who once ran one of the largest fishing operations on the Hudson. Everett Nack is a haul-seiner for American shad who hails from Claverack, NY and whose crew includes his sons, friends and neighbors who enjoy homemade blackberry wine after a good day's fishing. The DeGroat family, patriarch Turk and his sons are the last of their family to call fishing an occupation. Bob Gabrielson, the river's most well-known shad fishermen, and president of the New York State Commercial Fishermen's Association, runs a family operation where his sons fished, his daughter mended nets, and his wife helped load the truck. In their own vices we hear of their families, traditions, and the way of life they know is coming to an end. Interspersed are interviews with key environmental and government figures, archival images and film, and children learning to make nets, all under-girded by the original score of celebrated musician and composer Matt Cartsonis.

45517 ::: Anomalie (2018) ::: documentary ::: How real is our individual perceived reality and to what relevance does this question have within the make-up of our collective social structures? A set of agreed upon arrangements underpin our modern economies and societies by the mechanism of standardization. What role do such standards play in our communal life? There simply exists no standard for truth. During the Middle Ages western societies operated under the rule of prohibition and discipline, determined and decreed by the order of Christian Law. The contemporary performance based society is determined by the 'YES'.- a mandated positivity diktat. Previous criminals and felons made way for the depressed and failures. Prisons and dungeons have morphed into spaces of commerce and consumption, shopping malls and fitness studios...* This film accompanies the 'homeless philosopher' and 'professed lunatic' Fritz Joachim Rudert (Alias Leonardell) on his mission to release the mind-controlled masses from their mania. And indeed it may appear that 'crazy' Fritz and his confederates from the German anti-phsychiatry movement "BPE" (Bundesverband gegen Psychiatrische Gewalt) achieved a political movement. The inquires and work by renowned researchers: Allen Frances, Elisabeth Loftus, Joscha Bach and Gerhard Roth exemplify the economical interests, scientific ambitions and political coherences in and around the world of the human consciousness. Anomalie is an essayistic film about the systemic and individual 'abnormalities' of the so-called Western World.

Fortunately for America, an alternative emerged from the counter-culture of California in the late 1960s and early 1970s, where a group of political anti-corporate protesters--led by Alice Waters--voiced their dissent by creating a food chain outside of the conventional system. The unintended result was the birth of a vital local-sustainable-organic food movement which has brought back taste and variety to our tables. FOOD FIGHT is a fascinating look at how American agricultural policy and food culture developed in the 20th century, and how the California food movement has created a counter-revolution against big agribusiness.

They were the terrorist group's first victims. To understand how it was possible to accept and consider inevitable political violence, the filmmaker searches out those who perpetrated it, those subjected to it and those who fought it-from the autonomi political group to the Fronte della Gioventů, from the magistrate Pietro Calogero, who ordered the blitz on 7 April against Toni Negri, to Guido Petter, a university lecturer and ex partisan beaten about the head with a hammer, and finally to the union leader who became a "grass" and was forced to hide for years just for having told the authorities everything he remembered about his time as a militant in Potere Operaio union.

45759 ::: Chafariz das Virtudes (2014) ::: short ::: Every year the Viennale invites a famous director to produce a short film as the festival trailer. In 2014 the choice has fallen on the 105-year old Manoel de Oliveira. This year's trailer of the Viennale, the 21st since 1995, was made by the Portuguese filmmaker Manoel de Oliveira. Oliveira is at the age of 105 years not only the probably oldest filmmaker who is still active, but also one of the big masters in the history of cinema. His first film DOURO, FAINA FLUVIAL originated in 1931 - his last up to now, the short O VELHO DO RESTELO was shot this summer. 83 years are between those two movies... The trailer of the Viennale derives from the invitation of the festival to the filmmaker. It has originated in the connection and during the work on his new 20-minute film O VELHO TH RESTELO which had his world premiere a few weeks ago at the film festival of Venice. In this film, a series of free associative fantasies about literature, history and the figure of the Don Quijote, a water-spouting fountain is to be seen for some moments, a setting which resolves in a cross-fade to sea waves, whilethe voice of the narrator is to be heard. For his trailer, Oliveira has chosen the same setting. It shows a baroque wall fountain in the Portuguese town of Porto, which is called "Chafariz das Virtudes" i.e. "The fountain of virtues". Porto is the very town in the north of Portugal in which Manoel de Oliveira was born and has been growing up and which is still today a central reference point of the artist. The fountain, which was dried-out for many years, was brought back to life again especially for this film. Unlike in O VELHO DO RESTELO the fountain in the Viennale Trailer stands completely for itself: For the duration of one minute and a single shot, accompanied only by the noise of the flowing water. "It is", Viennale director Hans Hurch says, "a pure picture of the passing time, the trickling away of life, of the present and the irretrievably lost at the same time. And it is maybe the most simple and mysterious of all Viennale trailers for me. While watching this strange cinematic haiku, I have to think over and over again about this long, rich life of that old man from Porto who has given us this film."

The most important inequality that will need to be reduced is in the power to decide over one's living conditions. It is one thing to reach out to the poor with water supplies and medicine, but if nothing is done to the circumstances that created the inequalities in the first place, then we haven't managed to move beyond the mere provision of charity. The process of social mobilisation that the Arsenic Mitigation and Research Foundation is facilitating has started to empower those that are normally marginalised from decision making processes. Already there are several positive signals that this is strengthening the communities' sense of control over their own lives.

Host Hartindale announced six categories for round 1 -- as in the classic game, they were Geography, Entertainment, History, Arts & Literature, Science & Nature and Sports & Leisure. The three players, in turn, select from the available categories and answer a question. A correct answer earned one-half of a color wedge corresponding to that category; an incorrect response allowed the opponents to buzz-in and steal that half of the wedge. The first round continued until all the questions were used. Round two was played similarly, except all the questions related to pop culture. Also, a "bonus question" (concealed under one of the questions) allowed the contestant to answer a follow-up question (for an extra one-half wedge if correct). In round three, the round one categories were used, and a contestant could keep answering questions until they miss (at which point, their opponents could buzz in and steal control) or complete their pie. The contestant who completes their pie first (or if time runs out, is the closest to completing their pie) wins the game and advances to the Bonus Round. In the Bonus Round, the contestant had 45 seconds to correctly answer six questions (one question from each of the six categories); after all six questions are read, Martindale goes back to those questions that were passed. Getting one question correct in each category within the time limit earned the contestant a $1,000 bonus plus a trip; failing to complete the bonus round was worth $100 per correct answer.  The above rules describe the second-half of what was originally a one-hour show. The first-half of the show (called "Trivial Pursuit: The Interactive Game") had nine contestants (12 in the earliest episodes), each seated in a three-by-three tier and given a telephone keypad in which to enter their answers. Martindale reads a question and four possible answers; the players have 10 seconds to enter their answer. Faster answers were worth more points. The six highest-scoring contestants after five questions advanced to the next round, played identically, until only three contestants were left. Those three contestants advanced to the main game. Only the "Trivial Pursuit: The Classic Game" half was shown when the show entered reruns, while the "Interactive" half was shelved.  "Trivial Pursuit" spawned several interactive "playbreaks," interspersed during the Family Channel's afternoon game show block. At-home viewers could call a special 1-900 number to play a round similar to "TP: The Interactive Game." As many as 10 such "playbreaks" were played, with each winner receiving a prize and the right to compete in a daily playoff for a trip.

45929 ::: Flamenco: la tierra está viva (????) ::: documentary ::: Using a host's narrative, performance and interviews, we examine the intimate connection between gitanos (Spanish Gypsies) and traditional flamenco. We also see how it is connected with the ways gitanos maintained themselves (as farm laborers, blacksmiths, fishermen, peddlers and the like)- how each one of these occupations gave rise to a different form of flamenco singing. Finally, we will see that although traditional flamenco is capable of expressing very deep and universal emotions, it is also in danger of disappearing. We will illustrate much of the documentary with flamenco singing - subtitled, to be more accessible - because of what the singing tells us about the life and history of the gitanos. We will also use relevant images, such as farm workers in the fields when we are talking about farm laborers. nd although we will include a fair amount of flamenco singing, there will also be dance performances by famous stars as well as elderly people from the community and one extremely talented, five year-old girl. The guitar will also be represented by two famous guitarists, who will talk to us about their art as well as giving us a demonstration. Our host is an internationally touring gitano flamenco singer, so much of his explanations will be in the form of personal stories and an account of personal observations. We will also two experts, and all of the flamenco performers will contribute a little information through interviews.

It was established in 1984 to foster new ways of thinking about the relationship between art and moving-image media. Between 1987 and 1990, the Program for Art on Film commissioned fifteen short films and videos through its Production Laboratory. The Lab was conceived as an arena for inquiry and experimentation - a means of exploring and expanding the cinematic vocabulary of films on art. Each production was designed as an extended collaboration between a filmmaker and an art expert and was intended to explore the issues of collaboration in content-driven filmmaking, seeking new approaches that might influence future films on art. The ART ON FILM series of DVDs presents the results of the Production Laboratory in their original context: as experiments. The broad range of film subjects illustrate a variety of approaches and interpretations. And, while these films ask to be judged as works of art in their own right, they also should be understood as parts of an ongoing dialogue about the cinema's role in communicating art history.

46183 ::: Streets of Ghost Town (1950) ::: western ::: Steve, Smiley, and the Sheriff come to a ghost town looking for missing gold. In flashback, Steve tells the story of Bill Donner who doublecrossed his partners to get the gold. Donner, now blind and in jail, refuses to tell where the gold is hidden. Another one of the films from the Durango Kid series where there's only about 20 minutes of new footage shot; the scenes in the ghost town involving the credited players---Charles Starrett, Smiley Burnette, George Chesebro, Mary Ellen Kay, Don Reynolds, Stanley Andrews. Frank Fenton and the uncredited Jack Ingram---and the remaining footage is taken from two 1946 films in the series, "Gunning For Vengeance" and "Landrush", with the latter dominating most of the running time, but with the majority of the stock-footage scenes covered by a voice-over narration by Charles Starrett telling Sheriff Stanley Andrews the background story that has now led them to the streets of ghost town. The plot here concerns the search for unrecovered loot hidden in the ghost town by double-crossing outlaws. Most of the footage is told in flashback by Starrett, who leaves out the actual ending of "Landrush" to make the scenes from it merge into this film. Plus, when he's talking and the people in the stock footage scenes aren't, then the story can be whatever he says it is and not what may have actually transpired in the original films. This leads to a few oddities such as; Starrett's non-Durango character in this one is Steve Woods, but the handbills he hands out in stock footage from "Landrush" carry the name of his character in that film, Steve Harmon; George Chesebro has the credited role of Bill Donner, but he also plays henchman in the footage from the other two films, neither of which is named Donner; and Bob Kortman plays henchman from two other films, one with a moustache and one without, and the scene continuity has it appearing and disappearing from one scene to the next, and Jock Mahoney flits in and out doubling Starrett in scenes from three different movies, counting this one. The best scene is in the actual original footage when George Chesebro, as the blinded Bill Donner and playing it in his usual over-the-top at full volume style a la Al Picino(or vice-versa since Chesebro came first),is cornered by outlaw Frank Fenton, and tells Fenton that he can't see him but he can hear him, implying some kind of threat to Fenton's welfare. Fenton, who can both see and hear, promptly shoots him dead. And, speaking of that, players Bud Geary and John Tyrrell were both dead when this film was released, but stock footage has extended more than one career.

46192 ::: Suburb 4 Sale (2006) ::: documentary ::: What happens when houses in a socially disadvantaged public housing estate go under the hammer? On the very edge of southwest Sydney, where suburban sprawl meets bushland, a number of unusual auctions have begun. The NSW Department of Housing is selling off houses it can no longer afford to maintain, and making plans to bulldoze others, in an effort to revamp the suburb of Airds. Suburb 4 Sale is a one-hour observational documentary filmed over 2 years with three families as they buy into, or try to opt out of, a public housing estate. The film is an intimate, dramatic portrayal of their ups and downs, their joys and disappointments. This is real life drama during a period of broad social and economic change. Just over two years ago Daniel and Kim Torr blew their budget by $30,000 to buy one of the former Department of Housing homes in Airds at auction. We follow them through the auction process, and the trials and tribulations of turning the rundown abandoned public housing property into a home for themselves and their four young boys. The Torrs' dreams aren't extravagant but the ones they have are shattered when the market nose-dives and Daniel loses his dream job. Airds may be an opportunity for new buyers but there are plenty of people who don't want to live there. Tracey Brotherstone is a public housing tenant who is desperate to get out. She lives with her 6 year old daughter and her partner Lyn in a town house with an oven that doesn't work, a mouse plague, holes in the walls, chipping, mouldy tiles in the bathroom, and a dodgy extractor fan in the kitchen. Tracey hopes the Government's grand vision to redevelop Airds - the Masterplan - will be her ticket out of Airds. Several houses are earmarked for demolition and the tenants have been promised new homes in other areas. As time goes on the Masterplan doesn't provide Tracey with an escape route. In fact things get much worse for her living in Airds when Lyn gets bashed at the local pub. Sandy May is a single mum with three young children, who ended up in Airds as a public housing tenant, as a result of domestic violence. After three years she's now keen to move on, find private housing and give her children a better chance in life. Sandy's lucky break comes when her mother offers to mortgage her own home to buy a house in a private suburb for her to live in. But when Sandy's past, in the form of her on-again, off-again boyfriend comes back on the scene, it's clear the new house won't solve all her problems. Robyn Harrison is the likeable real estate agent who sells the Department of Housing homes they can no longer afford to maintain in Airds. Robyn has an unshakeable belief that privatising houses in Airds - and thereby changing the social mix of the suburb - will bring much needed social reform to the estate. But when the market nose-dives her job gets much harder. Whilst the backdrop to Suburb 4 Sale film is a public housing estate in Sydney, it documents a much bigger, universal story that many of us can relate to in finding and establishing a home - the impact that broad social forces can have on our personal dreams and aspirations.
46193 ::: "Rude Britannia" (2010) ::: documentary ::: A history of how the depiction of the vulgar has been a vital part of English satire,starting with the artwork of Hogarth in the eighteenth century and Gay's 'Beggar's Opera',the first home-grown play to lampoon politicians - which leads to stage censorship. Leading literary satirists Swift and Pope and Laurence Sterne,author of near-the-knuckle novel 'Tristram Shandy' are followed by political cartoonists Rowlandson, Gillray and Cruikshank,whose often grotesque drawings of the Stuart monarchy are no holds barred whilst poet Byron mocks political villainry in his poems. In Victoria's reign music-hall artists,such as the censor-baiting Marie Lloyd,take up the flag of vulgarity,along with comic creations like the goatish drunk Ally Sloper. The new art of photography leads to under-the-counter postcards of nude women and,thanks to the popularity of the seaside holiday,What the Butler Saw machines and saucy postcards, the master of which is Donald McGill,who,as late as the 1950s,is accused of obscenity,as is his contemporary, music-hall comic Frank Randle. The political cartoonists' tradition is upheld throughout the twentieth century by the likes of Gerald Scarfe and Steve Bell whilst stage censorship is relaxed to allow the often disturbing comedy plays of Joe Orton,one of whose regular actors,Kenneth Williams is a mainstay of the Kenneth Horne BBC radio shows,milestones of innuendo.The BBC becomes known for satirical fare such as TW3 and the sitcoms featuring bigot Alf Garnett though in the 1980s the commercial channel ITV scores a huge hit with 'Spitting Image' in which the great and the good are lampooned in puppet form. Alternative comedy is born,along with the deliberately politically incorrect adult comic 'Viz' and political incorrectness hits back at the Blair government's nannying state with the likes of the blue comedy of Chubby Brown and the gross-out TV sketches of 'Little Britain'. For a change the liberal left are now the critics of 'Rude Britannia',rather than its purveyors

When Dr. D.R. Cartwright arrives, she agrees to sacrifice herself to the Tunga Khan in exchange for his letting the ladies go free. It's 1935 on the Chinese side of the China-Mongolia border, a region of lawlessness due to the fighting between and amongst the feuding war lords and marauding bandits. American Christian missionaries, led by unbending and strict Agatha Andrews, have set up a mission in the area. She believes because they are doing God's work and because they are American, the war lords and bandits will leave them unharmed with the potential bloodshed staying outside their mission walls. They have had troubles trying to recruit a doctor, especially needed as one of their own, the constantly worried Florrie Pether, wife of the only male teacher in the camp, mama's boy Charles Pether, is at an advanced stage of pregnancy, compounded with the fact that this pregnancy is Florrie's first and she is near menopausal.

46230 ::: Mehr oder weniger (2000) ::: short ::: She is a phone operator, he is a cab driver. In the evening their times meet again in the shared apartment. Reading comics, having sex. He watches TV (football), she has a bath. Indecisively they try out other possibilities, gestures, stylings. The preparations for breakfast are a routine of well coordinated motions. In just 18 minutes the film takes a lot of time to show the course of events in their duration and repetition. Everything is always the same and yet different. This is a film one should see at least twice in a row: then the expectation of a narrative development and/or a point won't even arise and one can concentrate on the subtle details, that sketch and deconstruct a 'good' relationship (and the 'relationship film'). The film doesn't operate towards the exterior like Speak Easy, rather it implodes in small, exact gestures and escapes. The largest part of love life is set neither in the 'seventh heaven' nor in a 'relationship hell', but rather in the extensive in between where conventional narrative cinema rarely strays. The young couple, whose love life Mirjam Unger sketches accurately in More or Less, shares its most tender moments while reading comics together in bed. And there is no need to have a big fight to torture each other - the everyday heedlessness and rejections are enough. In between there are a few little, irrelevant escapades: indecisive approaches in other people's bedrooms, or kisses, that want to be forgotten the next day.

46256 ::: Atlantis, Iceland (2017) ::: documentary ::: A man explores a bitterly cold, windswept and mysterious land at the top of the world to track down the 50-year-old film scene known as the image of happiness. The journey pushes his subconscious mind to the limit. His hubris-like pursuit of the unknown children from a cult French filmmaker's pičce de résistance, Sans Soleil, leads him on a pilgrimage of mixed messages. His discovery of an ancient empire is preceded by his own psychological deterioration. Australian baby boomers Sandy and Mike head off to Iceland for a bucket list of music, politics and filmmaking in a landscape akin to the glories of Valhalla. Washing down petrified shark with local beer and Brennivín, they meet with local bands - Tófa (Art Punk), Pink Street Boys (garage/punk), Kćlen Mikla (post punk/minimal wave), Sólstafir (non-heavy metal, heavy metal), Singapore Sling (rock'n'roll/shoegaze), Misţyrming (hard core black metal) and Dream Wife (pop/punk), who are all playing at the annual Iceland Airwaves music festival. They search for a young punk band to make a music film clip, they visit a women's underground toilet where Johnny Rotten opens a punk museum, and they meet a true believer who connects with elves, dwarfs and huldufólk (the hidden people). After disappointing election results both in Iceland and in the United States, Sandy becomes more fixated on the search for the children (who, if still living, would likely be his age) from the image of happiness. He interviews politicians, filmmakers and journalists about the children. His friend Mike, who really came to listen to music and paint, tires of Sandy's obsession and leaves for warmer climes. Even Sandy's new Icelandic friends wonder about his out of control obsession. Feeling abandoned, Sandy heads for the Icelandic wilderness relentlessly chasing the answer he believes he will find. When documentary and experimental fiction meet in the glorious and hostile Icelandic landscape, the hipster city of Reykjavik demonstrates a complex political system ready to burst at the generational seams. The city lets loose a horde of Nordic killer bands and, beyond the sophisticated city, an ancient landscape reveals the solitude and isolation that makes Iceland mystical and dangerous, physical and spiritual.

The tale playfully undermines many of the founding texts of political 'enlightenment' (Descartes, Hobbes, Locke, Malthus, Rousseau, Smith, Spinoza), as well as making a devastating critique of revolutionary psychology and of 1917 Bolshevism. Like magic, the sleight of hand is transparent, apparently convincing us of the banker's inexorable logic, while the plot challenges us to discover the flaw in the shocking twist of the wealthy banker's logic.

What do we care about the most: beauty of the face, or the body? What makes a human beautiful? Fashion? Perfume? Make-up? When I began my journey, I didn't know where to start. Where do you begin to look for beauty, among so many different people with different tastes; different societies influenced by nature and climate and by countless cultures and religions? These days ideals of beauty surround us. Images of beauty in cinema, Television, fashion magazines, , fashion shows, and beauty contests. We are told which makeup that best suits our faces, the clothes that best suit our bodies, how to achieve the perfect figure, even the food that will make your face brighter. I believe that the best way to define the human beauty is to speak with those who have been searching for beauty throughout history, who have explored the faces of women and have been moved to pay tribute to it though art. Have the characteristics of human beauty changed through the ages? Have the Man himself become more beautiful? The film looks deeply for answers for this question. It will explore the views of philosophers, historians and art works from different eras and cultures, peoples and different civilizations, to present a clear vision about the history of human standards of beauty through the ages.

It was given a revamp, with a more serious look that saw the Faithless soundtrack dropped. Instead of a large and colourful studio, the presenter now stood in a newsroom, with a screen behind them. In 2008, when BBC Three received a makeover, 60 Seconds did as well, now adapting a pink logo. Tasmin Lucia-Khan took over presenting duties, until 2010 when she left and was replaced by Sam Naz, who would become the longest-serving presenter. In March 2014, the BBC announced that BBC Three would cease broadcasting as an on-air channel, and would instead move online. This meant 60 Seconds, by this point the channel's longest-running programme, would be axed, and the final bulletin aired just before BBC Three's closure on 16th February 2016. Presenting the final episode, Sam Naz thanked viewers for their support of 60 Seconds before the bulletin ended with the message "RIP 60 Seconds - 2001-2016"

The many stories that unfold provide a powerful insight into the climbers' emotional and physical journeys as they struggle with the challenge of a lifetime. Emmy award winning cinematographer, Gordon Brown, directed by Kyle Portbury and supported by Gregory Rinaldi (producer) and Kate Coggins (editor), climb as part of the team, creating a feel that is up close and personal as well as epic.

The Foundation of Universal Responsibility of His Holiness the Dalai Lama organizes a fourteen-day programme to embrace religious diversity, build cross-cultural understanding and encourage spiritual growth through first hand exploration of different faiths and traditions. The fourteen-day program includes lectures, discussions, practices and the histories of Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Sikhism and Jainism.

46495 ::: I May Have Lost Forever My Umbrella (2011) ::: short ::: In the spring of 2011, during the Photomonth in Krakow, the artist collective Adam Broomberg and Oliver Chanarin invited Belgian artist Johan Grimonprez to be part of ALIAS, an exhibition that asked artists to inhabit alternate personas and then create artworks as this non-existent third-person. This resulted in an exhibition of which none of the artists existed, as the fictional characters had taken over the creative process. Grimonprez was assigned to inhabit the renowned Portuguese writer Fernando Pessoa. Pessoa wrote much of his oeuvre under multiple, alternative identities. Not so much pseudonyms or aliases but what he termed 'heteronyms' - invented personalities with detailed biographies and interweaving histories. Pessoa's 'The Book of Disquiet' became Grimonprez' the point of departure. All the film's footage was shot on iPhone, recapturing selected details from YouTube's endless growing archive, a world where 'heteronyms' abound. Images of the earthquake and the tsunami that had hit Japan in March that year, dominated the net. This resonated quietly with the world of disquiet Grimonprez was envisioning. In addition, Grimonprez invited Portuguese writer Isabel Sobral Campos to add a female voice to Pessoa's many male heteronyms while staying true to the original language of 'The Book of Disquiet'.

Walter Black was once outwardly successful in every aspect of the word. He inherited the CEO position of his now deceased father's toy company, Jerry Co. But largely because of his inability to manage the company, it which is near bankruptcy, he is now clinically depressed, which is manifesting itself primarily in wanting to sleep all the time. He has tried every therapy known, to no avail. He has even tried unsuccessfully to commit suicide. His depression is negatively affecting his family. His teen-aged son, Porter Black, is a bright boy who is able to parlay his ability to think like others into a successful money making venture of secretly writing school papers for his classmates. However, he is afraid that he will turn out like his father, his fear to the point of him trying consciously to wipe out any similarity he has with his father from his own being. Walter's adolescent son, Henry Black, is a loner, who gets picked on by others. As she feels she can't help him in any way, his engineer wife, Meredith Black, finally kicks him out of the house, much to Porter's joy. However, after finding it in a dumpster, Walter, ultimately with the support of his therapist, finds that he is able to express himself through the use of a beaver hand puppet, the beaver acting as a third person expression of himself. In doing so, he is able to function normally in all aspects, albeit with a beaver puppet on his hand talking for him at all times. In turn, most of the people in his life accept Walter's new beaver appendage, as it has in turn improved their lives with him. But Meredith soon wonders if Walter is indeed getting better, especially if he will ever be able to live without the beaver, and return to being the man she married. Porter too is having a difficult time accepting Walter in his new state. Porter's feelings are affected by his encounters with his latest client, Norah, the academically bright and popular soon-to-be valedictorian, who wants Porter to write her speech for her and who is more complex than Porter had imagined in seeing who he thought was the stereotypical smart, pretty girl with everything.

Some have called it an early prototype or rip-off of "Wheel of Fortune" without the wheel, but the two shows started broadcasting at approximately the same time (Definition may slightly predate 'Wheel'). In typical Canadian (low budget) style, it featured bored housewives from Hamilton or Scarborough, Ontario who were teamed with Canadian film and television celebrities to solve a puzzle, with the grand prizes awarded on the show often being along the lines of a Schaeffer pen set and a vacuum cleaner. However, there were occasional 'Tournament of Champions' weeks during which they gave away a car as the grand prize for the tournament champion. Most of the celebrities were more locally known than international stars, but there were occasional early appearances by Martin Short or others who have since become more widely known. What most people remember about the show was its jazzy little theme, which was actually composed by Quincy Jones in the 1960s. The theme was heard in later years as a sample on the Canuck rap group Dream Warriors' hit single "My Definition of a Boombastic Jazz Style." It was also heard over the titles in the film Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery, which may explain why it was a bigger hit in Canada than in the U.S. The tune later appeared in Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me and made a prominent appearance in the opening sequences of 'Austin Powers: Goldmember'.

46789 ::: Once We Had a River (2014) ::: documentary ::: A hundred and fifty years ago, the federal government was relocating tribes and nations onto lands set aside as reservations, to hold and to keep Native Americans, of the fairly new country of United States of America. With the reservations came the implied promise of water and food to fit the needs, both present and future of the newly relocated tribal communities. Most of these tribal communities are still rich with resources and the most valuable of them all is water. "Once we had a River" is about five tribes, the La Jolla, Rincon, Pala, Pauma and San Pasqual Tribes. All of these tribes relied on the San Luis Rey River to provide for them water to drink and to irrigate their crops. Four of the tribes, the Pala, Pauma, Rincon and La Jolla were always connected to the places where they were placed onto reservations. The Cupeno Indians were forced to move from Warner's Hot Springs, at the headwaters of the San Luis Rey at the turn of the century, because a former Governor of California wanted them removed. The San Pasqual Indians were also moved in the late 1800's from beautiful, farm-able, San Pasqual Valley to a barren piece of mountain top. In 1897, the newly formed city of Escondido illegally built a diversion dam on the La Jolla Indian Reservation. The La Jolla Reservation is near the headwaters of the river. Escondido then built the longest gravity flow canal ever built for its time, an engineering feat of magnificence. This canal diverted all of the water of the San Luis Rey River around the Indian reservations down to the farmlands of Escondido, where the Sunkist Orange became famous. A Supreme Court decision in 1908, confirmed the new water rights of the Indian tribes, under what is known as, "The Winter's Doctrine". Then in 1912 the US Government gave all of those same water rights away to the Escondido Water District, totally neglecting their trust responsibility to manage Indian lands and the water they needed to survive. This caused a major conflict between the native and non-native communities. In 1967, California Indian Legal Services (CILS) was formed. It was the very first legal entity designed to represent the most under represented ethnicity in the US. It began representing the five tribes in their battle to regain the water to their valley. CILS attorney Bob Pelsyger told the tribes back in 1967, "water is like liquid gold" in California. He realized after 3 years of discovery and research, that this was a huge issue and would take more resources and money then CILS had access to. This spawned the creation of the Native American Rights Fund. Forty Seven years later, after millions of dollars were spent in litigation and over 20 attorneys became involved in the case, the cities of Escondido, the Vista Irrigation Water District and the 5 bands, were ready to sign the San Luis Rey Indian Water Rights Settlement Act, but now there was a problem. The US government, whom initiated the Act, wouldn't sign. With only speculation as to why they wouldn't sign, many believe it would set a precedent that will change the balance of water and Indian law throughout the Country. The San Luis Rey Indian Water Rights Settlement Act was championed by Congressman Packard and Senator Cranston back in 1988. It was created because the litigation process wasn't working. This was meant to expedite the process and for the most part it started working. The competing entities were finally working together, the federal government was owning up to its mistake from a 100 years prior, and the tribes were full of hope that they would soon be able to have accessible water. Before Casinos, before services were more abundant on reservations, it was just a struggle to get by. Worrying about water and why the river stopped flowing was something to big to really understand. The fact that something other than just a long drought or that the population boom in Escondido had anything to do with how little water flowed, was unthinkable. It wasn't until CILS held a town meeting on the Pala Reservation that they even realized they had rights and could fight the city of Escondido for taking all of their water. Water is more important than anything else we have. People in countries like the United States, Britain, Germany, and Japan can turn on faucets and expect clean drinkable water. We are accustomed to just having it. Most people don't even realize where their water comes from or what efforts were made to bring that water to their homes. But what happens when it starts to become scarce, even in prosperous countries like the US. The US response to CILS is, "What's in it for the United States?"

Catherine knew there was more to what was happening than just regular "FAT". Her surgeon could not explain the worsening symptoms, and simply attributed it to her weight. When he would not investigate other possible explanations, she knew that if there was an answer, she was going to have to be the one to find it. During her inquiry and research, Catherine traveled across the US and to Europe and the UK, looking for the answers to her many questions, interviewing experts and patients as she went along.

46947 ::: Cannot Buy My Soul (2008) ::: music ::: Over two nights at Sydney's grand State Theatre, before a packed audience, many of Australia's most acclaimed singer/songwriters and musicians came together to perform the songs of Kev Carmody. Although Kev Carmody is far from a household name, this former stock-man and laborer is one of the nation's most respected songwriters. With an Irish father and Murry mother, Kev was barely literate when he enrolled at university at the age of 33. At about the same time he became a singer and songwriter. Kev's work draws on a unique life experience combining both Western and Indigenous literary and spiritual traditions and eye for historical and political narratives and a willingness to explore the deeply personal. His songs cover Christian theology, black deaths in custody and celebrations of all walks of Australian life. These diverse strands came together on an album project Cannot Buy My Soul where his friend Paul Kelly assembled a diverse selection of Australia's notable and new artists to perform Kev's songs. This album has led to a two-night show at the State Theatre as part of the 2008 Sydney Festival. The live show of Cannot Buy My Soul was a selection of Kev Carmody's songs structured in such a way as to provide a narrative of his life from his early droving years to his political work in later years. The combination of so many artists from different aesthetic, generational, racial and gender backgrounds makes this concert the epitome of reconciliation. The fact that Kev is less well known that those paying him tribute gives a sense of mystery to the proceedings. At times intensely intimate, occasionally raucous and loud - this documentary is a joyous celebration of the life and times, the spirit, the songs and story telling of Kev Carmody. In the end it was a night of great hope. Kev himself joined those on stage, performing with them as they re-arrange and re-interpret this classic material. At different times throughout the night he will stand alone, center stage, to share in a very personal way some of his timeless songs and stories. This concert was a landmark moment in Australian music. This is how we saw it.

47094 ::: Mad Cow Sacred Cow (2009) ::: documentary ::: Terrified of his food, filmmaker Anand Ramayya (Cosmic Current) embarks on a journey that reveals shocking connections between the Mad Cow crisis, Farm crisis and Global Food crisis. Ramayya realizes that the cow is not only his favourite meal but also the God of his Hindu ancestors and the livelihood of his Canadian in-laws, who are small farmers. With a sense of humor and curiosity, Ramayya embarks on a journey to learn more about the modern Mad Cow and ancient Sacred Cow in hopes that their stories will reveal a solution to his fear of food. The journey takes him from his in-laws' family farm all the way back to India, land of the Sacred Cow. Ironically, modern India is also home to a burgeoning meat export industry that threatens to destroy an agricultural economy centered around the Sacred Cow and critical to the livelihood of 65% of India's population. Globalization emerges as a re-occurring character in this journey, revealing a world gone mad, an ecological crisis, religious fundamentalism, a farmer suicide epidemic and record breaking economic growth contrasted by staggering disparity. Is the way we eat connected to all this? Mad Cow Sacred Cow is a universal story that connects the food we eat to the environmental, cultural, economic and health crises we are currently facing on a global level. 'Anand Ramayya' (qv) is caught between two worlds as a Canadian born Hindu. On the one hand, the cow is a sacred animal to his cultural ancestors. On the other hand, he was brought up eating beef - which is his favorite food - and he has married into a family of cattle farmers, whose livelihood depends on that continued want of beef consumption. Upon the birth of his first offspring 'Owen Ramayya' (qv) and his want for Owen to have a safe supply of food, Anand views critically the state of the cow in society, most specifically the disconnect that seems to be happening between the traditional role that cow used to play in different parts of the world, and the current global crisis in the safety of food, beef most specifically with regard to bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), better known as mad cow disease. In Canada, Anand talks to cattle farmers - including his in-laws - and research scientists to see what has changed in farming and processing practices over the past half century that has led to mad cow and other issues with safety in consuming and processing beef. In India, he speaks to people involved with the role of cow in Hindu society. There seems to be global pressures for India to get into the beef export business with the economic benefits to the few at the greater societal cost. Although the discussion about what is happening in Canada and India are different, the path to which they are leading and the source of the problem seems to be the same.

There was no real definite plot each week, just basically Julie Brown acting crazy and introducing assorted videos, but, there were occasional theme shows (eg.

47131 ::: Blessings: The Tsoknyi Nangchen Nuns of Tibet (2009) ::: documentary ::: In Tibet, the word for woman translates as "lower rebirth." In a remote eastern region of the country, the Tsoknyi Nangchen nuns defy this definition. Devoted to the ancient practices of Tibetan Buddhism - once primarily a male domain - over 3,000 nuns have attained elevated status. Director Victress Hitchcock honors them in this moving documentary, which follows the journey of a small group of Western women to remote mountain hermitages to meet these nuns. Buddhist teacher and spiritual leader Tsoknyi Rinpoche III leads the group, imparts his knowledge, and bridges the gap between cultures. Narrated by Richard Gere, Blessings explains the Tibetan Buddhist monastic system and the changing role of women within it, incorporating historic black-and-white footage from the 1960s Cultural Revolution of the People's Republic of China, when all forty Nangchen nunneries were destroyed. Many of the nuns were imprisoned in work camps; others scattered back to their nomadic families. A few survivors hid in caves until, years later, they surfaced to rebuild the nunneries, stone by stone. Elders who kept the yogic tradition alive now teach it to young women. Hitchcock interviews both the nuns and the women who come so far, physically and spiritually, to meet them. The former, some fresh from a three-year retreat, explain why they chose their path; the latter speak candidly of the trip's profound impact upon them, as egos and twenty-first-century concerns fall away. Inspirational as it is, though, Blessings doesn't lack a lighter side. In one memorable scene, the nuns chant and play their music for their guests, who respond in kind by dancing to the tune of Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Want to Have Fun."

Both husband and wife work for the wealthy landlord. The landlord's son, Surya, has to cancel his studies and return home to look after the estate, as well as formalize his marriage to Saroj, the girl he was compelled to get married to when he was very young. Shortly thereafter Kishtaya is apprehended stealing toddy from the fields, is severely beaten, left senseless, and when he recovers he absconds, leaving Laxmi alone to fend for herself. Surya finds her attractive and starts an intimate relationship with her, much to the chagrin of the rest of the family. Things only get worse when Saroj moves in to live with Surya - compelling him to make a final decision about a visibly pregnant Laxmi. Surya, the son of a wealthy landowner, returns home from the city after graduating from school and is expected by his father to get married and take over a piece of land. He settles in not without conflict with the other people from the village, whose traditions he does not share. He uses his position to begin a love affair with Laxmi, who is unhappily married to a deaf-mute drunk. When Laxmi is left by her husband, Surya invites her to live at his house, much to the disdain of everybody else, who see this as a breach of the caste system. Their love affair ends abruptly when Surya's wife arrives. Rather than keeping to his promises, Surya drives Laxmi out of the house; when it turns out that she is pregnant, she suddenly becomes a threat that must be disposed of. The final scene of this movie raised many eyebrows upon its release in 1973, as it was seen as a disquieting symbol of rebellion against the country's social structures. Shabana Azmi's compelling performance as Laxmi laid the foundation for her becoming one of the great actresses of the independent Indian cinema of the 1970s and 80s.

The move, which they will do in Joey's brightly painted early model Chevy Impala convertible, is despite some of their friends having done exactly the same thing, only to return back to Cape Breton only after a few months, disillusioned.

During scouting it was found that some of the paths and steps still have large patches of black paint on them from production dressing 37 years ago by Production Designer Assheton Gorton, keeping the park a fading movie set.

47335 ::: R4 (2000) ::: short ::: Michaela Schwentner's video to 'R4' by the Viennese music trio Radian translates the abstract quality of the music into a single image, reduced but concrete: The shot which shows sets of tracks running in divergent lines from a train station and a train as it departs is transformed into a grainy black-and-white image reminiscent of Super 8 by means of various filters. This scene is compiled to form a new jerky sequence controlled by an invisible digital hand. The reptilian train creeps out of the frame slowly. This evacuation repeats what was captured in the formal reduction at the beginning. A great deal of what characterizes the musical principle employed by Radian can also be found in Schwentner's work method, namely the analog synthesizers she juxtaposes with an altered still image depicting the train, an analog of reality; the accentuation of the crackling high-frequency range, which corresponds to a pale, ghostly black and white in which white predominates; the gently throbbing rhythm which is expressed visually in the image of the train trundling slowly forward and seemingly not making any progress; and in the imminent disintegration of the acoustic contours into distorted white noise, which the video counters with its own visual discharge. At the conclusion, it has finally departed, this Mystery Train of the electronic age. No blues, no rock mythology, no new frontier which could somehow drag it back. What remains is a flickering, unstable afterimage showing that the central figure has left the scene. (Christian Höller)

He will pass off recordings made by other pianists as Joyce's work. Initially shocked Joyce goes along with him and is pleased when critics are fooled. However one has his suspicions and the deception is exposed though Joyce dies before the news breaks, Barry maintaining that she knew nothing of the fraud. When 'Joyce Hatto' (qv) died in June 2006 she was considered one of the greatest pianists Britain had ever produced. A collection of little known recordings released in her later years had brought her real fame. But a few months after her death, Joyce's husband, William Barrington-Coupe, admitted the recordings were a fraud - he had embellished Joyce's own playing with those of other pianists. Starring 'Francesca Annis' (qv) and 'Alfred Molina' (qv) and scripted by 'Victoria Wood (I)' (qv), this tender, funny and moving drama tells the story of Joyce and her husband 'Barrie', beginning with their meeting in grey, post war, 1950s London and ending in the 21st century in a cul-de-sac in Royston, Hertfordshire. _Loving Miss Hatto (2012) (TV)_ (qv) is a story of two young people with high hopes who, like most of us, get knocked back by life. It is - above all - a love story. After years of frustration and broken dreams, pianist Joyce Hatto finally found international fame in her 70s, despite having cancer. Dubbed 'the greatest living pianist no one has ever heard of', she had critics raving about her sublime recordings. London 1953, budding impresario, William Barrington-Coupe, better known as 'Barrie' (Rory Kinnear), meets and falls in love with shy concert pianist, Joyce Hatto (Maimie McCoy). They marry and Joyce becomes Barrie's first and only client. In order to make ends meet, he keeps up his slightly shady pursuits, and is arrested and imprisoned shortly after their marriage for importing radios from Hong Kong and failing to pay the purchase tax. Meanwhile, Joyce's career seems to be taking off, with concerts in the Queen Elizabeth Hall in London and other prestige venues. She also makes several recordings. However, in the 1970s, she is overwhelmed by stage fright at a public event attended by her carping mother, long-suffering father and two piano students. That ends her career. Fast forward to 2002, Joyce (Francesca Annis) and Barrie (Alfred Molina) are now in late middle-age, and Joyce is teaching piano. She is suffering from cancer and has become embittered and difficult. Barrie remains devoted and decides on one last shot at achieving fame for her - by digitally forging performances from an array of extant recordings by other people. He successfully dripfeeds them onto the internet until a music journalist begins to have suspicions. Joyce dies before her story is exposed but Barrie lives on to face the music.

Harassment, intimidation, media manipulation and hush money are all part of this dirty game. And for all their misdeeds, developers reap millions in tax credits and government subsidies before paying off their servants in City Hall with generous campaign contributions designed to keep them in power and at their disposal. It's happening in Missouri, and it's happening all over America.

What education do youth receive now and why is the youth transmission rate still the highest? We have seen retrospective documentaries on the AIDS crisis and interviews with survivors but what about the positive youth of today? We aim to feature accessible and inspirational individuals and the often-rocky road that they've traveled to get here. Each of the four subjects have been selected to create a dynamic perspective on the reality of living positive today. Medical and psychological experts weigh in to provide up-to-date facts and a historical context to the reality of living positively. In life we are inherently afraid of the unknown: of death. Our film will show this in action by exploring the social stigma these young people must rise above each day. The main conflict lies with our audience. We intend to have our subjects, and our audience answer difficult questions about their own level of discrimination when it comes to HIV/AIDS. Ultimately we want the audience to feel educated with a new sense of empathy and understanding for positive people. Vancouver, Toronto, Phoenix, New York, Victoria - straight 18-year-old First Nations woman, gay 25-year-old white urbanite, 23-year-old jet-setting entertainer, black 22-year-old man searching for work and health insurance.

Although a large part of the problem is the marketing of automobiles where the perception of the open road rarely matches reality, bad drivers are the major cause of the problem.

As these types are inherent in people and unlikely to change, other factors need to change to deal with these problems. Three different trends are emerging: having greater enforcement of regulations and more stringent penalties for breaking the regulations; having smart technologies take the human factor out of mechanized mobility; and the old-fashioned idea of the shared road space, which removes all traffic regulations in urban areas to force drivers to pay more attention to all else happening around them, whether it be the actions of other drivers, cyclists or pedestrians.

More importantly, it is a personal journey of a flawed man in a society that does not tolerate failure.

His primary objective is to bed the most beautiful trophy on the ship: Captain Thygh. All he has to do to win her favors is to score high in the shipboard contests of bowling, cooking, horseshoes, fashion, craps and sexual prowess. If the gamer is also clever, Larry can find ways to cheat his way to the top of these events. Although the game is filled with blatant innuendo and puns (the likes of Drew Baringmore, Jamie Lee Coitus, Dewmi Moore, Nailmi and Wydoncha Jugg) there is no full frontal nudity (at least close-up) and the sexual encounters are inoffensive. This is a game with more tease than sleaze, as has always been the case with the Larry series. Backgrounds, animations, and sound have all been upgraded, as well as the interface, from icons to pop-up windows. Some may not enjoy a politically incorrect game with a hero who is shallow and sexually obsessed, but for those who do, Love for Sail is a must; Al Lowe's best Leisure Suit Larry ever.

47996 ::: The Dutch Masters: Bosch (2000) ::: documentary ::: The career of Hieronymus Bosch is among the most mysterious of all the great artists of history. Though he was well-known by the time of his death in 1516, virtually nothing of his life is known today. His surviving works are also deeply enigmatic, highly symbolic images filled with the spirit of the Middle Ages. But the appeal of Bosch's work has long outlasted the late medieval age in which he lived. Though his art addressed the human follies of his own time, the satirical humor that he used can still be readily appreciated today. His intensely spiritual images of Christ and the Saints also continue to inspire many modern students, but it is Bosch's remarkable visions of the fantastic that are, undoubtedly, his greatest achievement.

Rumors of her retirement do not sit well with the play's director, Ladislaus Walichek, a secret Peeping Tom who sees in Maggie dollar signs.

And Waldo, who can't yet leave with no transportation, doesn't want to leave anyway as the cash-filled valise is missing, it most-likely still somewhere on the property.

48127 ::: "Dream House" (1983) ::: game-show ::: The grand prize given away on "Dream House" was stated in the title...a brand new house! Two married couples, including a returning champion, competed. The rules to the front game were modified several times during the show's 14-month run, but basically were as follows: Host Eubanks reads a toss-up true-false question. The couple who guesses correctly wins $50 and the right to select one of four topics on a topic board. Correct answers to these multiple-choice questions were worth $100 per correct guess, while the opponents could win the cash if an incorrect answer was given. The opponents could also challenge and give their own answer if they believed a wrong answer was given; however, the original couple won an additional $50 if they answered correctly and the opponent's challenge was unsuccessful. If nobody was correct, Eubanks simply read another toss-up question. The leader after all four questions were played won a prize. Round 2 was played in similar fashion, with double values ($100 for toss-ups, $200 for topic questions). The highest-scoring couple after two rounds won the game, a room of luxury furniture (usually worth $5,000 or more) and advanced to the bonus round; if the couple won by at least $1,000, they also received a new car. In the bonus game, the object was to unlock the "Golden Doors" (which concealed the show's grand prize) by correctly guessing a three-number combination. Four possibilities were provided each number (e.g., 2459, 1823, 5170). One number was knocked off at the outset, with one more number erased per return visit. The couple could eliminate up to three more numbers (one per row) with correct answers to the questions; still more numbers could be withdrawn by correctly answering questions in the front game. The couple then entered the combination they thought would unlock the Golden Doors. The lights surrounding the door lit progressively to suspensful music; if the couple correctly guessed the combination--denoted by the top bar of lights lighting--the couple won the house and celebrated to great fanfare. If the combination was incorrect, Eubanks showed the correct combination and the couple returned the next day. Couples winning five games automatically won the house. Before the start of the show, the couple chose what house they wanted to play for (described at the beginning of the show), with several styles available; the houses were usually worth $100,000 or more. In addition to married couples playing, weeks were devoted to single parents and their children, siblings and engaged couples playing for their dream house.

Atari was showing that technology is cool, way before the personal computer revolution took place and they were reaching out to an ever-growing audience with something that is still cool today: video games. Atari literally introduced the digital world to the mass consciousness. Nolan Bushnell and Atari have a huge collection of firsts: the first successful video game company, the first coin-op video game ever, the first general purpose console to win the market, the first marriage between video games and movie industry in the history of entertainment, the fastest growing company in history, the biggest industry crash ever, the weirdest anecdotes in Silicon Valley, the coolest brand on the planet... Atari is a story to be told for two main reasons: it is pure fun and it is impressively educational. Going through the ups and downs of Atari's ride, one can learn when and how our relationship with the digital world was born (ahead of Apple, Commodore, Microsoft and even the Homebrew Computer Club), how the 100 billion dollars a year video game industry was born, what to do to make your idea successful, what to do to screw it all up, whether to sell your baby to a giant major or not, what not to do to preserve your market from crashing and many others interesting topics.

I am accompanying on their journeys in South Africa and embarking on a journey of my own, to recapture my childhood memories, so that I can discover the meaning of motherhood. In a world with a global economy, the comfort of the First World is guaranteed by women from the Third World who clean their houses, raise their children and care for the aged. The price of feminism for the women in the First World is paid by the women from the Third World who leave their families and children in order to enable the women in the First World to have the freedom they enjoy. In South Africa, this phenomenon is particularly widespread, as the rich white home owners there are able to afford black women from the townships who work in their homes, look after their children and clean their houses. I would like to understand this phenomenon through two women in South Africa: One of them is Rebecca, who worked for 10 years as nursemaid and household help in my house while her four children stayed at home with their grandmother. The second is Elaine, my biological mother, who left home in order to support our family, but who could only do so only because Rebecca could care for her children. What influence has this had on the relationship between Rebecca and her children then and today? And what influence has it had on my relationship with my mother now? I would like to understand how such a situation could arise, in which neither of the two women was able to raise her own children - not in the First World, and not in the Third. What is the meaning of the word "motherhood" in the changing reality of the global village? .

And while the ranch becomes more difficult to maintain, so do their relationships. On Her Own is about more than just one family's struggle to keep their land out of foreclosure. It represents what is happening all across the U.S. as houses are foreclosed, families are forced to move apart for purely economic reasons, and small farms face ruthless competition from larger factory farms and land developers.

While Nancy remains strong-willed, Cindy and her kids discuss moving from California-and leaving Nancy-if they can't save the ranch. As Nancy leaves the ranch, so does her family-leaving California and Nancy behind. With land, legacy, and family all gone, she is left living out a pale facsimile of ranch life on a one-acre plot in a small town near the old homestead. We come to understand that the ranch was, in some essential way, the basis of the family ties. Without the land, there is little left to keep them together.

48573 ::: That Musical We Made (2014) ::: documentary ::: That Musical We Made is an honest and funny look at the making of a musical. Victoria Wood takes us behind the scenes of That Day We Sang, the film she wrote and directed. She shows us the whole process, skipping only the actual writing, which would be very dull to watch as it's mainly Victoria staring out at her bins. But the cameras have captured every other bit of the whole complicated process - from the first day of orchestral recording to the last shout of 'cut!' on a huge dance number. It's a fascinating look at the nuts and bolts of a big musical production, revealing how the choreography, musical arrangements and design all have to work together to tell the story. As well as exploring the inherent bonkersness of any work in progress - how does Michael Ball hang off a ladder while singing at the top of his voice, which is the best camera angle for a giant plastic prawn and do we have enough period braces for a whole orchestra - Victoria also looks at the real events which inspired her story. She goes back to Manchester to find out about the original choir of the 1920s, and the children who sang on the record of Nymphs and Shepherds. And in between unpeeling the history and sharing the fun of the shoot, she tries to work out how a piece of writing can evolve. Victoria unpicks the process in an attempt to understand how what started as a straightforward account of a day in the life of a children's choir in 1929 ended up as a middle-aged love story about the power of music to reconnect lonely people and give them a second chance to fall in love.

The aim of the film is to convey to the viewer the overwhelming pressure and chaos that comes with this disease. Mental illness is still heavily stigmatized. Mostly because people are ashamed and try to hide it. A lot of people who suffer from depression and anxiety are frequently misunderstood by others. People assume we are being dramatic or overreacting when they really don't understand what we go through. I wanted the viewer of my film to feel for a few minutes what depression and anxiety is really like. By projecting images onto a white wall and editing them to unsettling music I created the feeling of discomfort and chaos. This is meant to simulate a combination of depression and anxiety.

48587 ::: Dans l'Hellade (1909) ::: short ::: In all the arts the ancient Greeks excelled and their statuary, their music, their poetry, their dances, have remained to subsequent generations a standard to be followed and emulated. Terpsichore was the goddess of the dance, and if we read our mythology aright, taught the poetry of motion to her devotees. To all but a few who have made a study of Hellenic dancing such grace of action, such lithesomeness of body as was essential to the art when Grecian beauties tripped lightly and rhythmically over the green sward, is impossible. Mesdemoiselles Napierkowska and Marly, however, are superb in an exquisitely graceful ballet by Sacha Dezac, entitled "In Ancient Greece." The dance is perfect and the quality of the film is such that it is difficult to believe that the dancers do not themselves appear in the flesh before the eyes of the spectators, instead of being a mere photographic reproduction of their swaying rhythmic movements.

48602 ::: Lichter aus dem Hintergrund (1998) ::: documentary ::: Merely a few years after the fall of the Wall, Berlin is in a state of upheaval. Mammoth construction sites, particularly in the new government district between Bellevue and Tiergarten, reveal the city's efforts to take on the architectural appearance of a modern new capital - a task that risks scarring the face of the old metropolis, forever wiping out the material presence of its history, marring the memory of it in the minds of its inhabitants. Helga Reidemeister documents these changes with a poetic eye for the complicated beauty of today's Berlin, while avoiding sentimental or conventional language. Music by world-renowned jazz trombonist Konrad Bauer contributes much to the haunting beauty of this work. The documentary focuses on the young photographer, Robert Paris, and the beliefs he shares with his friends and family. Representative of many people in East Berlin, the former capital of the German Democratic Republic, he, his friends, and family are irritated by the building developments, which they see as a disastrous caesura, as if the structural changes have finally made them conscious of the demise of their former state. Robert and his friends have lost what used to be their native country with all its familiar niches and have not yet found - or accepted - a replacement for it. "It is no longer my city," says Robert, "it no longer interests me." Unable to find a home in Berlin, Robert departs for Kerala, India, where he takes pictures of workers scrapping ships - images not unlike those of his native city. The workers' portraits are also juxtaposed with the work of Robert's mother, photographer Helga Paris. Lights from Afar is about a German conflict that is perhaps too commonly and simplistically labeled 'GDR nostalgia' (Ostalgie). When those such as Robert and his friends complain, they are often criticized for seeming self-pitying, confused and egocentric. This is primarily because these complaints are rarely expressed in specific terms and many people are ultimately unable to define their problems. The best they can do is find a vague description of their feelings, almost as if there were no words available with which these former East German citizens can express their problems and unease - moreover, many do not belong to the mainstream and certainly not to those who profited from the system. Such complaints ultimately revolve around the loss of identity, both national and personal, and the changing cityscape is merely one symptom of this process.

48781 ::: Camp FEMA (2009) ::: documentary ::: Recent legislation attempting to legitimize the use of internment camps to detain U.S. citizens in the event of an uprising or civil unrest has many people asking what nation they live in. In a country born out of political dissent, we watch our leaders in Washington slowly pass bills that label ordinary Americans as thought criminals and potential domestic terrorists for simply questioning the actions of their government. We see third party candidates and their impassioned supporters listed in secret government reports that call their allegiance into question and brand them as fanatics and extremists.    Senate committee hearings and official FBI documents further illustrate the mindset of our elected officials as they classify homeschoolers, gun rights activists and anti-abortionists as threats against the existing social and political order; by default creating an entire nation of radicals and revolutionaries - where everyone is a suspect... equally guilty until proven otherwise.  How has our government shown that they will deal with these people? The same way as every other totalitarian regime throughout history - marginalize their activities then lock them up. Prisons are being built; internment camps constructed and laws passed that deal severely with anyone who dares to step out of line or ask too many questions.

States rights take a front row seat in this new political thriller that is guaranteed to send shivers up your spine. Find out where the true power of the people rests in halting these treasonous activities NOW! Recent legislation attempting to legitimize the use of internment camps to detain U.S. citizens in the event of an uprising or civil unrest has many people asking what nation they live in. In a country born out of political dissent, we watch our leaders in Washington slowly pass bills that label ordinary Americans as thought criminals and potential domestic terrorists for simply questioning the actions of their government. We see third party candidates and their impassioned supporters listed in secret government reports that call their allegiance into question and brand them as fanatics and extremists. Senate committee hearings and official FBI documents further illustrate the mindset of our elected officials as they classify home-schoolers, gun rights activists and anti-abortionists as threats against the existing social and political order; by default creating an entire nation of radicals and revolutionaries - where everyone is a suspect... equally guilty until proven otherwise. How has our government shown that they will deal with these people? The same way as every other totalitarian regime throughout history - marginalize their activities then lock them up.

Driven to find another unsuspecting spouse; he discovers that his new bride, a widow, is no fool. When she tells him that she intends to keep her accounts separate from his, he is driven to contemplate murder once again. After one year of marriage, fortune hunter Edward Bare - who is affectionately referred to as Teddy (as in "teddy bear") by his older, wealthy wife, Monica - manages to kill her, making it look like an accidental death on her part, which it is eventually ruled as by the coroner. He killed her now as he recently had a discussion with her convincing her not to write a will making him her sole beneficiary which she intended to do - as such casting any possible aspersion away from him as a murderer - under the presumption that she had no will, which would mean that her entire estate would go to him regardless. Edward is dismayed to learn that Moni did have a will written immediately after they got married, leaving all her money to her Jamaica-residing sister, Dora, who she had not seen in twenty years, but leaving him the house in which they live. Despite the will also stating that Moni's money would revert to him on the event of Dora's death, Edward has no means to be able to kill her. Moni's lawyer, Phillip Mortimer, makes it clear to Edward that he has never trusted him and believes he is responsible for Moni's death. Within this context, Edward has no money now on which to live, making him move to his next victim, brash Freda Jeffries, who he meets at a seaside resort. Nouveau riche widowed Freda gained her wealth through the sale of her deceased husband's business, a saloon. Following Edward and Freda's marriage, he finds that Freda is not nearly as trusting of him with her money as Moni was with hers, Freda treating her money as her own, as such making Edward's task of living high off Freda's wealth more difficult. Freda's non-trust is due in part to Edward spending time with a woman named Charlotte Young, who Edward, through his previous work as a property broker, is helping find some property to open an equestrian school. Edward knows that he can't kill Freda, at least not yet, because the death of two wives in such close succession would cause suspicion.

48860 ::: The Invisible Man (2014) ::: documentary ::: Christmas Day 1960. After five years of imprisonment a young man escapes in a snowy winter night with a file and linen from Britain's safest prison in Belfast. Chasing him: an army forced by 12.000 policemen and soldiers. However, they never caught him. Danny Donnelly became secretary to Sinn Fein, aged 16. At the age of 17 he was interned without trial, then jailed for 10 years on the sole charge of membership of an illegal organisation. Four years later he escaped. He was never a member of the Provisional IRA and his story has nor been told before. 50 years to the day of his escape, Danny travels back to Northern Ireland and retraces the footsteps of his escape. A film dealing with one man's story set against the backdrop of the conflict in Northern Ireland from the perspective of faith, hope and forgiveness. On St. Stephens Day in 1960, a young political prisoner escapes from Belfast's Crumlin Road prison. Just like in a Hollywood movie, he cuts the bars, abseils on a rope made of torn up sheets, dodges the searchlights, eludes machine gun nests and finally disappears into the freezing night of sleet and snow - without a trace. Four years earlier, 18-year-old Danny Donnelly had been sentenced to 10 years in prison, the longest sentence ever given on the sole charge of membership of the IRA. His escape sparked the biggest manhunt in the history of Ireland. 12.000 police and B- Specials chased him for one week until on New Year's Eve, he made his way to safety south of the border. 50 years later, Danny retraces his escape on exactly the same days between Christmas and New Year, following the same route, finding his hideouts and most importantly meeting again the people who helped, non of whon were involved in any political organisation. The Invisible Man is a documentary road-movie, retracing Danny's "Great Escape" in contemporary Northern Ireland, simultaneously travelling through past and present. At the same time, the film will interweave his story with the history of the Anglo-Irish conflict in order to understand what social conditions drove a teenager to join the IRA, and what later made him turn his back on the violence of the Provisional IRA, choosing to promote Irish identity through language, songs and poetry instead of building bombs. Finally the film will investigate why Danny's amazing story was airbrushed out of the history of Northern Ireland as well as the history of the IRA. On a snowy Christmas night in 1960, two young political prisoners escaped from Crumlin Road jail, their names were Daniel Donnelly and John Kelly. They used hacksaw blades to cut through the bars and torn bed sheets as a rope to abseil down the walls - the rope broke, one fell outside the prison walls, the other fell back inside. 'The Invisible Man' tells the story of Daniel Donnelly's dramatic escape, 50 years to the day, as he retraces his footsteps and meets some of the people who helped him achieve his freedom. What makes Daniel's story unique is that his escape was not an IRA escape as he was not a member of the IRA, nor the provisional IRA, and as such his story has not been included in official IRA history. Aged 16, Daniel became a secretary of the West Tyrone branch of Sinn Fein. Shortly after he joined Operation Harvest in 1956. He was interned without trial aged 17 and held in custody until he was charged with 'membership of an illegal organisation'. He refused to recognise the authority of the British Court in Northern Ireland and he was sentenced to 10 years in jail on this sole charge. Four years later, he made his escape. He was never caught and in 1986 Margaret Thatcher's Government gave him a Royal Pardon. Daniel (Donal) is very positive about his life and dreams, his main goal was one of civil rights and with the peace that has been achieved in Northern Ireland, he reflects on the past and hopes for continued peace in the future. This is a film of hope and reconciliation, whilst confronting the harsh injustices of the past.

His Stories are told in the ancient songline tradition - Stories of Creation; how the platypus was born; the relationships of the Yhi, the sun, and Bahloo, the moon; Clouds of Magellan, Bullima and the Milky Way. When ancient knowledge held by the oldest culture on earth meets modern astrophysics and new concept is born - cultural astronomy. In the meeting of minds between Prof Ray Norris, Australia's leading astrophysicist responsible for EMU - Evolutionary Mapping of the Universe and Ghillar extraordinary parallels emerge in the two cultures - such as 'wormholes' and the pathway to Bullima, the Euahlayi Sky Camp, via the hollow Coolabah tree, which lives on the riverbank. Ghillar says: "I was fortunate to have grown up with my family and senior Lawmen and Law women of the Euahlayi and far Western Gomeroi, who secretly handed on ancient knowledge in ceremonies. These men and women were born in the late 1880s and early 1890s, all were taught by their grandparents, who in most cases were the generation who first saw the whitemen come into their Country when they were teenagers."

48969 ::: The Martyred Presidents (1901) ::: short ::: This film is difficult to classify. It opens on a scene showing a mourner with bowed head sitting in front of what appears to be a tombstone. Shortly afterwards, the face of Abraham Lincoln and then of two other presidents, Garfield and McKinley, can be seen on the monument and then they disappear. There is a figure huddled at the foot of a statue of Justice, as if asking forgiveness. We have just finished and now offer to exhibitors a picture which we consider most valuable as an ending to the series of McKinley funeral pictures. The scene opens with a beautiful woman who represents Columbia seated at the altar of Justice. As if from out of space there slowly appears a perfect and lifelife picture of Abraham Lincoln. The forming of the picture is first noticed by the appearance of what seems to be a mere spot on the front of the altar. This spot slowly enalrges and is focused into shape, until, to the amazement of the audience, the face of the great emancipator is clearly shown. President Lincoln's likeness is allowed to remain upon the altar just long enough for recognition, when, in the same mysterious manner that it appeared, it slowly fades and in its place there grows the picture of President Garfield. This in a like manner fades away, and again as out of the dim distance comes the picture of our great martyred President, William McKinley. The tableau is then dissolved into a picture of an assassin kneeling before the throne of Justice. Here the tableau ends, leaving an impression of mingled sorrow and sublimity upon the audience. We predict for this picture a remarkable success, and particularly where it is shown in connection with the funeral ceremonies of the illustrious McKinley.

48986 ::: The Freedom Quest of Oney Judge (2015) ::: history ::: Oney "Ona" Judge was an enslaved servant of George and Martha Washington, and the details of her life and daring escape in 1796 were well-preserved through interviews by abolitionist newspapers later in her life. The Freedom Quest of Oney Judge is a fictionalized account of actual historic events, produced for the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation in Virginia as part of its HERO Live. series. In this three act program, the story begins a decade after Oney's escape, when a smug and supercilious nephew of Martha Washington finds Oney and tries to bully her back to Mount Vernon. The tale proceeds in a series of flashbacks, showing why she decided to attempt escape and how she managed to leave her life of slavery behind. It also chronicles the efforts of President Washington to re-capture Oney years later using maddeningly hush-hush methods in hopes of avoiding public scrutiny and censure. The slave owners are shown as cheerful and insipid, later dismayed that a well-treated slave would repay them with such ingratitude by running away. While she was not physically mistreated, Oney (Mary Carter), like all other slaves, was considered no more than possessions equivalent to, say, livestock or furniture, something Oney feels keenly and resents deeply. But when Oney is sent with the family to Philadelphia, she witnesses a place where Black people live and work as free men and women, a place where there are few slaves and Black children even attend school. A local Black cobbler mentions to Oney that Pennsylvania law says that any slave brought to the state must be freed after six months. Oney, who has been in Pennsylvania for more than two years, realizes the Washingtons have probably been circumventing the law by taking her out of the state every so often, effectively restarting the "six-month clock" each time. Outraged, Oney bides her time until she sees the opportunity to slip away and pursue a new life as a free woman. The quest leads her to freedom, but not to a life of peace, as she must continue to evade her former slave masters and the law, even after she is married and has a child.

That is why, despite the diet industry having grown to an almost $70 billion per year industry, the world keeps getting fatter.

This documentary is meant to inform and educate people on this controversial issue. A woman who recently received her nursing degree presents facts that could suggest that in order to keep our blood supply clean and abundant, we must update our current screening process for potential donors. By taking the camera to the streets, Gay Positive captures the opinions of people from many walks of life regarding how they feel about the ban today. One of the questions posed was, "If you were in need of a blood transfusion and the donor was healthy, would it concern you if this generous individual was a gay male?" Recent history proves that when tragedy strikes, donor centers are often in short supply and struggle to meet demand. The ban forces organizations such as The Red Cross to reject willing, disease-free, healthy individuals. During the filming of this documentary, countries such as Mexico and the United Kingdom lifted their ban, while the FDA insisted it remain in the United States of America. We, the filmmakers of Gay Positive, hope this documentary will help remove the stigmas often associated with the lifestyles of homosexual men and to raise public awareness of the potential benefits of lifting the ban on gay blood.

49401 ::: Feats First: The Life & Music of Lowell George (2015) ::: documentary ::: In the late 1960s, a collective from Los Angeles emerged that was so musically eclectic and boasted such an unusual sound that it was all but impossible to detect where its origins lay. It was a band that instantly captured the imagination and acclaim of critics, journalists, artists, celebrities, producers and DJs, but one that struggled to sell many records or to trouble the charts. However, it was a band that ultimately found huge favour from a rock audience who came to love the group with an uncommon fervor. The group was of course called Little Feat. At the centre of the Little Feat story is Lowell George, the group's frontman and principal songwriter. Over the course of a decade leading the Feat, he wove a unique tapestry using a singular artistic vision which ended, shockingly, with his untimely death in 1979. Lowell Gorge however left an ever astonishing body of work which still today, almost 40 years on, is as relevant and popular as it has ever been. This film, the first ever to chronicle George's life, music and career, uses archive footage and interviews of and with Lowell and Little Feat, plus contributions from many of those who knew him best, to visually recount the sometimes ecstatic, other times tragic life and times of this maverick genius.

49548 ::: Mistika hotela Palace (2010) ::: documentary ::: Different stories about the life and tragic fate of one of the most beautiful hotels on Slovenian coast have been spreading for a long time.

We see the film "Mystique of Palace hotel" as a documentary, which demolishes frontiers between a documentary and motion picture, between reality and illusion. Stories of a certain town - Hotel, living timelessly. We wish to expose the documentary through ever-changing time and space, which changes as our lives do as well. In the film there will be statements and stories of the people, who worked there, while the hotel was active. There will be interviews with the architect, owners, city councilmen the people, who were directly involved in the renovation, and comments of passers-by... The visual aspect of the film is of utmost importance, and that's why the camera is one of the most important factors in the making of the documentary. We have invited one of the best European cameramen, whom we had worked with in the past, and have very good experiences with. The aforementioned cameraman is IGOR LUTHER.

At the restaurant, she meets Blair, and they both fall for each other, but Blair is engaged to Marcia. Sally is hired to impersonate a famous Russian dancer named Noskerova, but at that engagement, she is found to be a phony and that Blair is engaged. Undaunted, she proceeds with her life and has her show on Broadway, but she still thinks of Blair. Having grown up an orphan, Sally Green currently works as a waitress, but she is constantly preoccupied by two other things: the handsome stranger who admires her through the window of the restaurant where she works, and wanting to become a dancer, of which she's dreamed since she was a child. Her preoccupations make her a distracted and thus not very good waitress, which constantly gets her into trouble.

49614 ::: Water for Tea (2003) ::: short ::: Water for Tea is a movie about a high-tech, high-profile mission called GPM. But the movie seeks to grab viewers' attention through images of teacups and teapots. What's going on here? Recognizing the challenge of translating the often arcane, techno-jargon of advanced space-based research to people who may be unfamiliar with that rarefied language, the production team set about devising a world of their own. They needed a way to implicitly relate the political and scientific importance of NASA's GPM mission without having to delve into its nuts and bolts. The environment they created for the movie established the rules right away. Teacups and a teapot stand in for satellites that will comprise the GPM fleet, as well as for features of the Earth's fresh-water environment. They sit on an ethereal table in a quiet, meditative space. It's a visual motif designed to create a relationship between the immense scale of a space-based satellite fleet and individuals on the ground. Thematically, the table acts like the Earth. It is both unpredictable and powerful. As the movie progresses, the table suggests not only a transformable environment, but also a place for contemplation and creation. When a painting appears draped across the table's surface, we see an artist's expression of the foliage that fills the space around the table-an expression of the larger world represented by nothing more astounding than ink on paper. We see the Earth as the province of human contemplation and creativity. GPM stands for Global Precipitation Measurement. A multinational endeavor designed to transform human understanding about the water cycle, GPM will be an Earth science research project like no other in history.

One such was a tunnel that begun construction in early 1962 masterminded by four West Berlin students: civil engineering student 'Ulrich Pfeifer' (qv) (called Uli) who was responsible for structural concerns, political science student 'Hasso Herschel' (qv) who oversaw construction details and communication with the refugees, steel expert and Italian national 'Domenico Sesta' (qv) (called Memo) who was the planner, and art student and fellow Italian national 'Luigi Spina' (qv) (called Gigi) who was the leader of the operation. The idea was borne out of a want to help Gigi and Memo's friend 'Peter Schmidt-Vogel' (qv) who was despondent about his fate living in East Berlin. Uli and Hasso joined the plan soon after they met Memo and Gigi. Hasso was earlier imprisoned for four years by the East German regime, and joined as an act of revenge against his former captors and to get his younger sister out of East Berlin. Uli earlier escaped from East to West Berlin through the city's sewer system, and like Hasso joined the tunnel group as revenge against the East German regime who imprisoned his girlfriend for seven years for also trying to escape. Initial planning problems included finding a route that was above the consistently high ground water table under the city and in an area of the city where they could build without being suspected of doing so. After locating the section of the city to construct the tunnel, they had to find buildings under which they could start and end the tunnel either without detection or with the assistance of the building owner. Beyond the known concerns for what was now planned as the 165 meter long tunnel, such concerns as providing structural supports, providing air ventilation, disposing of the excavated materials, recruiting laborers sympathetic to the cause, and financing (the latter which was solved in an unconventional manner), they ran into unforeseen problems, such as two burst water pipes flooding the tunnel, and other people they initially did not know finding out about the project. After all was said and done, life, in all its good and bad, went on for those involved.

49768 ::: Mister Buddwing (1966) ::: drama ::: A man wearing an expensive gray suit finds himself in Central Park in New York City not knowing who he is or how he got there. His amnesia even extends to the fact that he doesn't know how he takes his coffee. All he has on his possession are a crumpled piece of paper wrapped around a couple of pills, the paper also with a scribbled telephone number. He is also wearing a ring with a broken stone, the ring engraved from its giver with his or her monogram, G.V. The telephone number takes him to a woman who doesn't know who he is. Based on what she calls him and some item association, he begins to call himself Sam Buddwing if anyone asks him. As he wanders New York City in a daze, he believes he may be an escaped mental patient based on a newspaper story, his clothes and the monogrammed ring. But a vision of a young brunette makes him remember a woman in his life named Grace. He manages to spend time with a few women during the day, many times he believing that woman is Grace herself. His time with these women triggers happy and not so happy memories of Grace. Time with one of the women who he knows is not Grace may provide the strongest trigger to remembering who he and Grace are and why he was in Central Park in such a despondent state. Edward Volner (James Garner) has a recurring nightmare that recalls three stages of his marriage. In his dream he is an amnesiac who has several unlikely allies in his search for who he is. Angela Landsbury and Jack Gilford portray unlikely benefactors as well as a group of Washington Square denizens who save him from a beat cop. Katherine Ross, Suzanne Pleshette, and Jeanne Simmons portray his wife during three stages of his marriage. The film depicts social issues of the first half of the 1960's including birth control, abortion, and police corruption. The film is surreal, James Garner claims in his biography that it was the worst film of his career. I believe it is one of his best films, its dark character study is definitely not your typical James Garner movie. Pay close attention to the opening shot and the closing shot especially the final few seconds. A well-dressed man wakes up on a bench in New York's Central Park, with no idea of who he is, or how he got there. All he can find in his pockets are a train schedule, a couple of drug capsules, and a piece of paper with a phone number on it. On his right hand: a ring with a cracked stone; engraved on the inside of the band is the inscription, "From G.V." Armed with these meager clues, the man, adopting the name "Buddwing" (inspired by a passing Budweiser beer truck and a plane flying overhead), sets out to learn his true identity. Along the way, he encounters a variety of people, including three different women who each reminds him in some way of someone named "Grace."

49792 ::: Jihad! (2004) ::: drama ::: JIHAD! In Arabic, translates as striving, struggling, a zeal or effort and has two connotations: A lesser Jihad and a greater Jihad. This movie focuses on the later through the personal struggles of its main character Ed, a Palestinian-American living in a pre-911 New York City, and as reflected in the lives of his friends and family. Cousin Salaam's unanticipated visit to New York City, which is precipitated by a close friends death in Ramallah (Palestine) brings up repressed conflicts for Ed as he pursues an affair with Hanna, a married American women. Ed's romantic fixation for Hanna belies a greater more cultural relationship between the mid-east's attraction for the west and its struggle to come to terms with its limitations. Hanna holds the promise of a new romantic life yet one which is hopelessly wedded to it's own contradictions. Salaam at first is representative of many Arab stereotypes, but surprisingly reveals a more accurate portrayal of Palestinians in general. His visit triggers haunting memories for Ed of a past-repressed life under occupation. Their discussions highlight differences in political, cultural, as well as ideological definitions about freedom, Islam and of course the meaning of Jihad. Harold, a University Dean of Theology, tries to shed light on the definition of Jihad with the two, and later exposes a perdition that exposes his own Jihadic conflict. Harold expresses a darker more obsessive reaction to the temptations of the west. JIHAD! Cries out for a greater definition then the one we have come to understand post 911. Through the lens of its writer/director Muhammed Rum it becomes a prism by which we can discover the striving, struggles and zeal of the lives of those caught between worlds.

He soon finds the teens' trace and proves his indiscriminately evil blood-thirst by charging his only offspring equally lethally. However they were warned by Eden's friend Cece, the witch's granddaughter, who explained the situation in her home and assures them when the zombie attacks it's safe thanks to a 'blessed' spell preventing evil from entering; alas the chain- and crowbar-waving undead finds a way round that: drag them out of it and make it fall apart. After the boys prove too brave and loyal for their own good, only Eden escapes alive, and the battle-site is moved to the tomb where the voodoo evil resides in a sarcophagus for their fight to the (un)death while she sort of learns enough voodoo by trial and error...

After town freak Ray Sawyer is killed in a freak accident involving voodoo related material, local teens' bodies soon start piling up. A few of the teens decide to visit a friend's house in the swamps of Louisiana to find out if she knows what's going on, but soon realize that Ray is possessed by 13 evil souls and worse, Ray chases them armed with a crowbar.

49822 ::: Hi-Ho Mistahey! (2013) ::: documentary ::: Similar to her 2012 documentary, The People of the Kattawapiskak River, which detailed the housing crisis of the Awattapiskak First Nation's people, Alanis Obomsawin's Hi-Ho Mistahey. examines this community with a shrewd political eye, aiming to raise awareness about the lack of resources allotted by the government for education. Her voice, one of sensitivity and political necessity, is a vital part of the Canadian narrative, bringing attention to marginalized people with an eye for detail and community introspection, humanizing a subject that, for those in mainstream culture, is more of a peripheral social grievance than something for active consideration. In 2000, the elementary school in Awattapiskak was shut down after the land was determined toxic. Since then, the students have been schooled in outdoor portables with heating and vermin issues, making it difficult to maintain a dedicated staff and offer the children the same comforts and amenities that children in more centralized regions are afforded. Initially, the government had allotted funds for a new school, but, as noted in Hi-Ho Mistahey!, the budget for education within the Department of Indian Affairs isn't specifically protected and can be utilized for other issues if they're deemed more critical. Frustrated with endless financial delays, the community, spearheaded by teen activist Shannen Koostachin, reached out to children across Canada, creating a grass roots awareness campaign throughout the schools, forcing parliament to listen through sheer volume. This story, in itself, is quite inspirational and captivating as a cultural assessment of the ever-changing Canadian landscape. Unfortunately, it's not a particularly complex or involving story, which is why Hi-Ho Mistahey. tends to feel directionless and unfocused. Amidst the core narrative about this movement, which, tragically, was started by someone who couldn't see it through after losing her life in a car accident, Obomsawin inserts several interviews with community members about topics like meat smoking and suicide statistics without specifically relating it back to the central topic. Obviously, the aim is to paint a picture of the community and determine why it's important to keep children there rather than have them go off to the city to study, but it plays more as a series of disjointed sob stories to make saccharine what is already an essential dialogue with enough emotional weight to sustain itself. And since there's little stylization or sense of pacing, it leaves everything feeling bloated and amateurish. Still, Obomsawin's determination to keep the world aware of the social and political issues affecting smaller communities in rural areas is commendable. She's clever enough to acknowledge that these plights stem from a Canadian cultural tendency to deny our less than flattering pass without dwelling on it or tossing out glib or dismissive comments about the urban lifestyle. It's this integrity and determination that helps make a difference. In this feature-length documentary, Alanis Obomsawin tells the story of Shannen's Dream, a national campaign to provide equitable access to education in safe and suitable schools for First Nations children. Strong participation in this initiative eventually brings Shannen's Dream all the way to the United Nations in Geneva.

49928 ::: Snapshot: Six Months of the Korean American Male (2008) ::: short ::: Beginning and ending on April 16, 2007, Snapshot looks at a six-month period during which several Korean American men-John Cho, James Kim, Yul Kwon and Seung-Hui Cho--figured prominently in America's pop culture consciousness. During these six months, from the Virginia Tech shooter through doomed, devoted father James Kim and the appearance of two Korean Americans on People Magazine's list of Sexiest Men Alive, Korean American men repeatedly appeared in news stories, magazines and television programs. Snapshot looks at the ways in which their representations reflect or refute long-held stereotypes of Korean and Asian American men. Although he immigrated to the U.S. as a child, Seung-Hui Cho was described as a South Korean for several days after the Virginia Tech massacre, reinforcing the stereotype of the perpetual foreigner; Yul Kwon's nickname, the Puppetmaster, echoed descriptions of Fu Manchu and Ming the Merciless, two archetypically evil Asian masterminds. James Kim, however, was inscribed as a loving father and husband, almost always depicted with his wife and children. News of his death received over 2 million page views on CNN.com on the day his body was discovered. John Cho's anointment as one of People's Sexiest Men may have countered some stereotypes of Asian men as nerdy and emasculated. Snapshot recounts the target time period with sound bites, video clips, quotes from blogs and bulletin boards, and news images to examine the use of language, images and other tropes that describe the Korean American men in question, providing a basis for comparison to the hearsay, gossip and speculation that too often passes for reportage in our information-saturated culture.

50197 ::: Zeit Raum (1998) ::: short ::: A clear concept ­ time is made visible through changes in the place and place through the layering of time. A day ­ A place (a market) is divided vertically into four time zones. In the second time zone is the busy market. To the left of this, the market stands are being set up, to the right they are being dismantled and the street washed clean. The sound wanders from the morning (left) through conversations about buying and selling to (right) the sound of water at the end of market day. People repeat the gestures of work. It's true, time passes and slips away simultaneously. Where do the people at the edges of the time zones? A year ­ Four times a piece of beach on the Adriatic coast. Without a point of reference, size becomes indeterminable. Sea and sand change constantly but nevertheless remain unchanged. One has the impression of duration. When the summer use with its colorful sunshades has come to an end again, all that remains for the sea and sand is, perhaps a ship. In Thomas Renoldner's work time and place are able to be experienced best right on their margins ­ here in the simultaneity of the long dissolves. Day and year ­ Traces of time and place are washed away one after the other but not erased. For the "A Year" part of the film I went four times to the Italian Adriatic coast at different times of the year to shoot this take. I wanted to fuse these four different seasons on film so that real experiences with place and time would be transposed into a new cinematographic place/time experience. Because of the image of the mass of people who take over this tiny piece of beach, it is also a film about the threat to the ecological balance. In the last scene, where the fishing boat slowly floats into the middle of the picture I have tried, at least on film, to restore an optical harmony.

Writer Joseph O'Donnell and actor Tim McCoy had a fondness for scripts in McCoy's films at Puritan and Victory that called for McCoy to pose as a Mexican, Chinaman or something in his role as an undercover lawman, although most viewers can't find much difference between these characters and McCoy as McCoy. This time out, federal agent William "Lightning Bill" Carson (Tim McCoy) and his pal Magpie (Ben Corbett) come to Lasson County posing as gypsies in order to end the raids of a bandit gang. They arrive in their fortune-telling guise/wagon at the ranch of Jim Bolton (John Elliott) and his daughter Jessie (Harlene Wood, now using Jill Martin as her screen-billing name), and Carson suspects ranch foreman Crane (Forrest Taylor) as being involved in the gang's activities. The actual head of the gang is respected citizen Bert Lee, who tells his henchmen Johnson (Kenne Duncan) and Mort Hodges (Ralph Peters) to keep an eye on the gypsies as he suspects they are federal agents. So much for the effectiveness of posing as gypsies. Even with his "cover" blown, Carson manages to get most of the outlaws to stand still while he shows them card tricks---pick a card, any card---, so he can get their fingerprints and have them checked out back in Washington. Somewhere along the way, Lee manages to frame Carson and Magpie on a murder charge, but Carson has an ace (king, jack and seven of clubs also) in the hole with the card fingerprints.

This event so transformed him that Lonnie became an itinerant Christian evangelist, something of a John the Baptist of Southern California who compelled thousands of fellow spiritual seekers to make a profession of faith in Jesus Christ. During the 1970s Lonnie Frisbee became widely known as California's "hippie preacher," the quintessential "Jesus freak" whose pictures frequented such magazines as Time and Life as the media told the story of a burgeoning "Jesus movement." Lonnie Frisbee provided the charismatic spark that launched the Calvary Chapel church into a worldwide ministry and propelled many fledgling leaders into some of the most powerful movers and shakers of the evangelical movement. During the 1980s Lonnie was at the center of the "signs and wonders" movement, one that focused on reviving the practice of spiritual power through diving healing, speaking in tongues and other demonstrative manners of manifesting the power of God. But besides his influence and beyond the miraculous stories that swirl in the wake of his life, what makes the story most fascinating is that his call into the ministry came while deeply involved in the Laguna Beach homosexual scene. Treated with contempt by the ministers whom he helped establish, Lonnie has been written out of their collective histories. He died as as result of the AIDS virus in 1993.

50341 ::: Prater Violet (????) ::: drama ::: London. 1933. Young writer Christopher Isherwood is hired by Imperial Bulldog Pictures to rewrite the screenplay of Prater Violet - a daft, sentimental love story set in 19th century Vienna. Christopher is cheap and malleable - perfect bait for the shark-like producers to throw to the film's temperamental Viennese, Jewish director Friedrich Bergmann. And so begins a whirlwind of frayed tempers and clashing egos, of crass studio nonsense v. European art house sensibilities. Isherwood and Bergmann are fishes out of water, at first grimly fascinated and then slowly horrified by the burgeoning movie business and its complete disinterest in the terrifying rise of fascism in Austria and Germany. The studio becomes increasingly self-absorbed with its Prater Violet confection, ignoring the all too real horror story looming in Europe for Bergmann's Viennese family. Prater Violet is a life v. art tragic-comedy. But it is also a father-and-son movie. Bergmann grabs needily to Isherwood (the son he never had), increasingly distraught that he's left behind his wife and daughter in danger. In Bergmann, Isherwood has a father-figure to look up to; Bergmann's infuriating petulance is tempered by flashes of genius. Bergmann is a true visionary, tragically aware of the personal sacrifices required in artistic professional life. Prater Violet echoes The Last Tycoon and The Artist; it audaciously plays with form as well as content, mixing the artifice of studio sets with 'real life'; blending movie characters with the 'real thing'. It is a story that questions the political and moral responsibilities of modern life.

This exhibition examines the internalization of historic German art, the increasing importance of popular and mass culture, the fashioning of two distinct national identities, and the engagement with Germany 's political and artistic past. By tracing the political, cultural, and theoretical discourses in both German art worlds, the exhibition shows the role of conventional art, new media, new art forms, popular culture, and particular domestic and international contemporary art exhibitions that played a role in the establishment of German art in the postwar era. We accompany Stephanie Barron, curator of the exhibition, and Sabine Eckmann, curator of the exhibition catalog on a walk-through of this critical re-consideration of German post-WWII art.

This inspiring and provocative drama focuses on the triumph of the human spirit about a daring person who risks everything to realize a dream. My purpose in making movies is to leave people moved, inspired, and entertained by creating new paradigms that stretch the limits of our thinking.I was so inspired by the real life of the lead character, the courage, integrity and remarkable inner strength that I felt compelled to have her life known. The contrasting facets of her life seemed best expressed by starkly contrasting scenes, taken to the extremes, then juxtaposed and held together by the story line itself. This modular approach was inspired by the contemporary American painter, Frank Stella, whose paintings are a juxtaposition of extreme modules all held together by form and color. To make Soulmates I had to summon up my own courage and push my creative limits. My daily mantra was "take it to the extremes, and make the impossible possible."

(Stoney is shown in front of two theatres where Columbia, missing no bets, has displays of one-sheet posters from "Strawberry Roan" with Gene Autry and "The Undercover Man" with Glenn Ford.) Reporter Vera Wright (Jeff Donnell), following him to get a story of a failure, informs Stoney that he is a never-was has-been, and they find themselves stranded in the hometown of Eddy Arnold, where Eddy's film "cousin" Carolina Cotton (Carolina Cotton) quickly takes a shine to the shy and clumsy Stoney. Eddy sees a print of Stoney's film in which the character is singing "I Can't Shake the Sands of Texas From My Shoes" and is impressed and telephones his agent Sam Baker (Fred Sears) to come there quickly and sign Stoney to a contract, especially since he sounds like Gene Autry. Meanwhile, some bank robbers and gangsters get involved and have their eyes on the proceeds from a charity fund-raiser Eddy is doing. When the agent shows up to sign Stoney to a recording contract because "you sound like Gene Autry", Stoney says that is because it was Gene Autry doing the singing in the film. The film is somewhat of an inside joke built around ace stuntman Mahoney, in that his Stoney role is the opposite of his real-life abilities, and most of the males in the cast, Big Boy Williams, Douglas Fowley, Don Harvey and Charles Sullivan, takes turns beating him up and knocking him out...when he isn't falling out of hay lofts or involved in accidents. But a kiss from Carolina makes a new man out of him and the gangsters are rounded up in a one-man blitz, and Stoney ends up with eight studios bidding for his services. Eddy performs most of his best-selling hits of the day, with the exception of "Cattle Call", the vastly-underrated Carolina Cotton (as a performer and actress with a personality) yodels up a storm, and this overall turns out to be a pretty fair little sleeper, especially in regards to films where Hollywood takes a poke at itself.And probably unknown to those who go around compiling such lists.

It's another thing entirely that the few girls who did join, were assigned tasks such as T Shirt design, newsletter writing and public relations. Not that there is anything wrong with those jobs - just that when you join a robotics team, you join it to build a robot. A robot building process that utilizes the science, technology and math training the students had worked hard to develop, and now wanted to put to work. They wanted to be a meaningful member of a team that would build, compete and win. So, they did what any problem solver would, they broke off from the school's only robotics team and formed their own; the all-girls FE MAIDENS (Iron Maidens) Team of Bronx Science High School, #2265, 30+ members strong and growing more successful every year. As Co-Captain Natasha puts it: There's always the difference between being accepted as a good girls team and being accepted as a good team, and that about sums up their experiences over the past several years as one of the only all-girls robotics teams in the country. As we follow them through their 2017 season, the FE Maidens carry more than their success as their charge. They have a broader responsibility to one another and to girls interested in STEM fields across the world - to show that girls can achieve in areas where they are not expected to excel, to show that one loss does not speak to the whole gender's abilities, nor does one win.

His visual embrace of the cultural and social landscape of his adopted country is richly detailed in his work and in this seductive film. The film allows Gutmann to present his own story as well as the context for his works through a series of six interviews that resonate with his personality. He narrates the story of his early fascination with art and his almost accidental introduction to photography as a powerful medium.

His influence can be seen today in the works of many celebrated photographs. My Eyes Were Fresh profiles an artist and teacher who made a lasting contribution to the history of modern photography. It is also a vivid portrait of the development of a unique artistic sensibility one born out of the distinctive milieu of modern German-Jewish culture in Breslau and Berlin and shaped by the politics, the popular culture, and the emerging native modernism of the United States.

His parents, college and his relationship with a local girl haven't provided him with what he's looking for. It's only with his best friend, Jacob, does he feel some purpose. But that all changes when they both develop feelings for the same girl. The other townspeople of Borland include Alexandra, the employee of the Stakes' printing shop. She is an old maid in-the-making, whose only reason for life is to take care of her ailing father. Brianna Richards is the all-American girl who becomes intertwined between the emotions of two best friends, Squito and Jacob.

Paul is rough; happiest with barbecue smoke in his eyes and a freshly dived crayfish steaming in kelp. Terence however, as befits the doyenne of the social pages, is smooth, preferring his crustacean served with the requisite Sauvignon Blanc.

50727 ::: Neither Memory Nor Magic (2007) ::: documentary ::: Twenty-two decayed bodies were found sprawled in the pit.

That night, Henry notices the deficit and thinking his wife has taken the money to pay her debts, he accuses her of theft and leaves her. Rumors come to his ears that Paul is with his wife, and placing a revolver in his pocket, he starts for the house, intent on settling the affair. Paul, meanwhile, is trying, with small success, to regain Madeleine's love. When his attentions begin to get offensive, she threatens him with a revolver to keep his distance. Under the influence of liquor, Paul advances toward her, and stumbles over a chair, bruising his head. Madeleine rushes out to the kitchen to get some water, and, while there she hears a shot and returns to find Paul dead and Henry standing over the body. Each believes the other guilty and takes the responsibility for the crime. Henry is taken into custody; Madeleine's story is not believed. At the trial Henry is saved from dying for another's crime when Jeanette breaks down and confesses that she had been hiding in Madeleine's room on the day of the murder, and when the latter had gone for water she had grasped the opportunity to shoot Paul who, she said, had been planning to tell the truth in regard to the robbery. Knowing that this would bring about a reconciliation between Henry and his wife and that she would never be able to win his love, she had shot Paul and is now willing to suffer for her crime.

He mounted the reels in great secret, and then hid them away until one day by chance his daughter Gabriella, owner of one of the oldest Travel Agency of the World, discovered them in Bologna. What was behind this frenetic activity? Why did Adelmo put his life at risk in order to shoot hours and hours of film? Part of those images have been put together for the contemporary viewer for the first time - with neither restoration nor any other manumission - and read against the vivid memories of middle-aged world travellers in the same decades. So history and memory, personal and collective, interweave in this fascinating reconstruction in which we rediscover a world that no longer exists, even if we have always lived in it.

'Fires We're Starting...' unearths empowering viewpoints and, with obstacles examined and potential solutions discussed, presents a picture which is more positive than scathing or destructive and encourages us, as independent filmmakers and actors, to be pioneers for transformation at our level of the sector.

George being an associate History professor in a New Carthage university where Martha's father is the President adds an extra dimension to their relationship. Late one Saturday evening after a faculty mixer, Martha invites Nick and Honey, an ambitious young Biology professor new to the university and his mousy wife, over for a nightcap. As the evening progresses, Nick and Honey, plied with more alcohol, get caught up in George and Martha's games of needing to hurt each other and everyone around them. The ultimate abuse comes in the form of talk of George and Martha's unseen sixteen year old son, whose birthday is the following day. History professor George and his boozy wife, Martha, return late one Saturday night from a cocktail party at the home of the college president, Martha's father. Martha announces that she invited another couple, newly appointed instructor and his timid wife, Honey, over for a nightcap. When the younger couple arrive, the night erupts into a no-holds-barred torrent of marital angst and verbal tirades. Psychological realism and foul language: George and Martha are as far from the bourgeois 1950s perfect married couple as you can get, alternatively badgering, berating, abusing and loving each other, both alone and accompanied by the naive young married couple that have come over for a nightcap. The fun and games in which George and Martha involve Nick and Honey are a lacerating look at the older couple's existence, where the emotional brutalizing fill an unspeakable void at their center, and a troubling preview of what the younger couple's life could become.

Invited to the couple's home for late-night drinks are new professor Nick, and his naive wife Honey, where over the course of the evening, the polished veneer of the hosts tarnishes grotesquely. The witty repartee of consummate sophisticate Martha degenerates into increasingly violent verbal abuse of both her husband and guests, while George's stoic facade crumbles both physically and emotionally. The horrified Nick and Honey initially come off as happier foils to the misery of the older married couple, but the guests are soon mirroring George and Martha in their mutual antagonism, giving voice to buried resentments and alcohol-fueled revelations of repressed injuries.

50939 ::: God Willing (2010) ::: documentary ::: The film examines the modern-day phenomenon of religious "intentional communities," or as they are often called, "cults." It takes as its focus "The Church," also known as "The Brotherhood," the 35-year-old ministry of shadowy messianic figure Jim Roberts. Since 1971, this secretive organization has recruited (hundreds) of adherents who live together in austere, separatist, communal groups, preaching salvation and damnation, and turning their backs on the outside world except when proselytizing for new members. They observe strict ascetic values and rigid standards of dress, presentation and gendered behavior, and live off of discarded food and other refuse. And they mutually reinforce the belief systems that brought them into the fold, including a focus on the narrow path to salvation, and obedience to the will of spiritual leader Roberts. The film examines this microcosmic society, and by implication, the "cult" phenomenon itself, with a rare insider's view. Featuring interviews with former group members, it implicitly reveals the sorts of stresses and spiritual longings that make outwardly average young people "ripe for the picking" by opportunistic outsiders. It also reveals the anguish of parents and loved ones left stunned and confused by the defection of their children and siblings, some of whom have been members of the Church for decades. We are present as parents groups, utter strangers brought together by a shared trauma, map the movements of the group from town to town, and compare notes about the lives their children lead, and about their own feelings of helplessness and despair. The film also brings us along as certain family members set out to find their loved ones through detective work and determination, leading to surprise confrontations and just as often to the group's immediate flight to new, secret quarters. In this way, the film traces the tenuous balance that families must strike between attempting to rescue their loved ones, with the psychological, emotional and tactical impediments that so often get in the way of reconciliation. The experience of the families, so close and yet so far, is poignantly and powerfully evoked by extensive surveillance footage and photography, showing Brothers and Sisters in their daily comings-and-goings, moving through the everyday world without seeming to be involved in it. Rare, candid footage of one parents' successful but brief rendezvous with her daughter, provides searingly painful evidence of the seeming hopelessness many of these bewildered families feel. Testimonials from ex-group members detail the tortuous processes by which some adherents regain their psychological independence, only then to have to face the world again, with all its strains - but sometimes, with greater strength than before.

50982 ::: Berlin's Jewish Museum: A Personal Tour with Daniel Libeskind (2001) ::: documentary ::: This extraordinary haunting building, a zig-zag form reflecting an invisible matrix of addresses of Jewish Berliners who once lived in the area, is Daniel Libeskind's first commission. It took ten years to build, and it has become an integral part of the cityscape, attracting vast numbers of visitors and signaling a new era of Jewish-German history. Libeskind is questioned by Alan Riding, New York Times journalist, as he takes him through the building, which was initially intended as a simple annex to the adjacent baroque Berlin Museum. His concept for the new wing, though, was intentionally so incompatible with the main building that there was no way to connect them above ground. To arrive in the Jewish Museum, visitors must enter through the 18th-century building and then descend to underground passageways and "voids," which in themselves give a strong sense of the tragic fate of the German-Jewish population during the Hitler years, even without any exhibitions in place. During this walking tour, Libeskind lays bare to Riding the entire architectural and philosophical concept of the building, an absolutely unique construct of innovation, intellectual prowess, and direct allusions to the lives and work of Berlin's pre-Nazi population of Jewish literati and artists, such as Walter Benjamin and Arnold Schonberg.
50983 ::: The Face of Evil: Reinhard Heydrich (2002) ::: documentary ::: Reinhard Eugen Tristan Heydrich (1904-1942) was arguably the most enigmatic, and perhaps the most sinister, of all of the Nazi leaders. Although frequently portrayed as a mere pathological butcher, Heydrich was in fact a highly sophisticated man, obsessed by power and the means used to achieve and retain it. "The Face Of Evil: Reinhard Heydrich" examines his meteoric rise to command over the Gestapo and intelligence network in the SS empire, his consolidation of power in the Nazi movement as a whole, and his rule over the Czech people from Prague. Heydrich was a complex personality: an accomplished violinist, a world class fencer, a qualified fighter pilot who flew missions over enemy territory against Hitler's express orders. He was a man of supreme technical efficiency. His drive for personal power completely submerged any human feelings, leaving him chillingly devoid of compassion. As the chief architect of the 'final solution' he was the most murderous Nazi of them all. In 1942, Reinhard Heydrich was considered the most dangerous man in Germany after Hitler himself. The Allied plot to assassinate him, masterminded in England and carried out in Prague, was the most brazen of its kind. His story is a cautionary tale, frighteningly relevant to the present day, of the effects of organizational ability when empowered by an indomitable and amoral ambition. Leading Heydrich historians, declassified documents, meticulous reenactments and recently discovered films and photos highlight this feature documentary.

51016 ::: Borneo (1937) ::: documentary ::: The last travelogue/documentary/exploitation film shot by the husband-and-wife team of hunters/trappers/explorers/film-makers Martin and Osa Johnson, albeit Mrs. Osa Johnson pieced together another one of all-archive footage, taken from previous films, in the early 1940s. This time out they are in Borneo searching for an orangutan to capture and sell to a zoo, but film everything in natural sight and stage a few other items. Martin Johnson died shortly after the Borneo expedition but his widow sold the footage to 20th Century-Fox's newsreel department and they took it from there. The fad for semi-real/semi-staged exploration/exploitation films was long over by 1937, and the people at Fox decided to jazz this up a bit in hopes of getting better bookings...and the Johnson-name still had an audience of its own. Lowell Thomas, a newsman who practically made an icon out of T. E. Lawrence all by himself and the lead commentator on Fox newsreels, was assigned the narration, after the studio editors finished cutting-and-splicing the Johnson footage down to something usable, and then another Fox-newsreel regular, Lew Lehr, was added to provide some comic-counterpoint to Thomas's doomsday narration. Lehr, as was his usual wont, employed his German-accent character, for the interruptive comments, few of which were all that funny...and absolutely none of which were expected to be taken seriously by the 1930s audience. The studio didn't reckon on this film being seen decades later by critics who knew not the era in which the film was released, and had no idea of who Lew Lehr (or Lowell Thomas) was...and evidently little knowledge of what constitutes propaganda. The only propaganda connected to this film was that done by the sales department of 20 Century-Fox in selling this film to the exhibitors.

The dramatic real story of a Italian princess, born and raised in the comforts of a golden court, who will be forced by war to share the fate of ordinary people in a concentration camp. Mafalda di Savoia was chosen to represent the decline of nobility and the errors of war, which separate and destroy even noble families. Mafalda is a victim of political strategies that overlook her, and her tragic death shows the levelling power of war, that forces poor and rich alike to share the same destiny. Mafalda di Savoia, second born of the King of Italy Vittorio Emanuele III, immediately demonstrates great sensibility towards those who cannot share her privileges. Animated by a docile but determined nature, despite her father's will, she falls in love and decides to marry Prince Filippo D'Assia. The King, who does not approve the union of his daughter, a Catholic, with a German and protestant aristocratic, receives strong signals of disapproval from the Pope and Mussolini. The marriage of Mafalda and Filippo is rewarded by the birth of four children, but the historical situation - Fascism, the advent of Nazism and the imminent war - deprive the family of its usual serenity. Filippo spends most of his time in Germany, at Hitler's service, and Mafalda - who does not approve either of Mussolini or Nazism - is watched by the Gestapo. Her sudden attempt to maintain Montenegro outside the area of the Nazis influence, puts the Germans definitively against her. The Italian surrender on 8th September 1943 finds Mafalda on her way back from the funeral of her brother-in-law Boris of Bulgaria. She is alone and unprepared. She is captured by the SS and taken to Buchenwald. In the lager Mafalda is witness of the horrors of Nazism, but she bravely reacts to discouragement, by helping other prisoners. Her goodness of heart overcomes the initial distrust of the Italian prisoners towards the daughter of the traitor king and wins their confidence. In particular Mafalda becomes friends with Sara, a nurse in the lager, with some Italian sailors and with little Miriam, who becomes part of her family. Her proud and determined attitude puts her in contrast with Karl Rüdiger, chief of the camp, who tries to bend her will and to force her to betray her husband Filippo D'Assia. Mafalda does not surrender even if it means she will never see her children again.

There was a German American Bund and pro-Nazi rallies even filled Madison Square Gardens in New York City. And the US was isolationist. Until Pearl Harbor, then, everything changed. Spymasters throughout the 20th century, and particularly during times of conflict, thought it advantageous to enlist the services of celebrities who had high level and powerful "fans" in various industries, many with easy access to politicians and high ranking government officials. Hollywood, as we now know from declassified National Archive documents, aided in the mobilization for war and its people contributed as spies, combatants, propagandists, documentary and fund-raisers, entertainers, and morale- boosters. Hundreds of celebrities eagerly answered the "call to arms" and brought their talents and patriotism to the intelligence services, military and war information offices. In the wake of Pearl Harbor President Franklin Roosevelt by executive order formed in June 1942 the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), the forerunner of today's Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). In the National Archives we discover that stars as Cary Grant, Marlene Dietrich, Greta Garbo, Leslie Howard, Josephine Baker, John Ford and many more, were spies for the Allies, and changed the curse of the war.

Released under different titles in France--and not surprisingly, often confused with its analogous 1896 movie, "_Le manoir du diable (1896)_ (qv)"--Georges Méličs' Haunted Castle is considered, by all means, a remake. Once more, there are a plethora of supernatural manifestations and threatening apparitions, including ghosts, a creepy skeleton, a teleporting chair, and of course, the prince of darkness himself, however, this brief representation of the eternal battle between Good and Evil inserts an armoured phantom, and above all, is painstakingly coloured by hand.

The stories of the high school rowers will also navigate the choppy waters of college recruiting.

51272 ::: State vs. Reed (2006) ::: documentary ::: A documentary detailing the murder of Stacey Stites of Bastrop, Texas and the subsequent arrest, conviction and death sentence handed down to Rodney Reed. This story explores the mishandling of evidence, the possible law enforcement cover up and the lack of proper legal defense for Rodney Reed. Like heat hovering above Hill Country blacktop, questions permeate the case of Rodney Reed. He was sentenced to death eight years ago for the rape and murder of Giddings County store clerk Stacy Stites when his sperm was found in her body; however, as freshman filmmakers Frank Bustoz and Ryan Polomski posit in their documentary State vs. Reed, it was that sad Texas tradition of racism and police fraternity - aggravated by an inadequate defense - that put Reed on death row. Reed and his family steadfastly maintain that he was Stites' lover, yet his attorneys neglected to call any witnesses that could have confirmed it. Even more combustible elements coursed through the case: Stites was engaged to a quick-tempered Bastrop police officer, one who failed two polygraph tests denying her murder. Stites' fiancé, (now-former) Giddings police officer Jimmy Fennell Jr., was also given Stites' truck, the vehicle that transported her body, before Reed's team could examine it. (Reed's fingerprints were never found at the crime scene - no evidence aside from his DNA was.) Also, the unexpected death, ruled a suicide, of a Bastrop police officer calls Reed's guilt deeper into doubt; initially an investigator, he too became a suspect. "What's really going on in this case?" asks Polomski. "Is this really possible?" Beginning in 2003, Polomski and Bustoz amassed interviews with attorneys, investigators, journalists, and, during dozens of trips to Bastrop County, several of Reed's relatives. The filmmakers also traveled to Huntsville, where Reed sits on death row. Aside from being a voice for Reed, they see their film questioning the mechanisms of capital punishment, a machine operating with far too much efficiency and prejudice in Texas. "It came so fast, so hard, with so much force," says Polomski of the avalanche against Reed. "It was inevitable."

51288 ::: Future Antiquity: Opening Suitcases (2007) ::: short ::: The notion of a future antiquity, a future so distant that even our age will be considered the most ancient history, expresses an inverted optimism that posits both our own demise (as a positive force), and continuity in our aftermath (as inevitable). Opening Suitcases is a tragi-poetic rumination on a television game show. On the surface, this popular television show appears to be a simplistic game of chance.

51361 ::: Vite! Vite! Je suis en retard (1910) ::: short ::: It is 11 a.m. and Jones, not being an early riser, is sleeping soundly, when he is rudely awakened by his servant thrusting under his nose a letter from his friend Colby saying that they are expecting him to lunch at 12 sharp. When Jones takes in the meaning of the note he leaps from the bed with a bound and gets into his clothes with magic rapidity. Rushing over to the window with the alarm clock grasped tightly under his arm, he luckily is just in time to see a cab passing under the window and, not having a minute to lose, he jumps from the window right on to the back seat of the carriage to the great surprise of the cabby, who thought he had dropped from heaven. Giving the driver the name of Colby's house, Jones tells him to go like mad as he must get there by 12. The man's horse, however, refuses to go at a faster gait than a gentle lope and Jones, almost beside himself, bounds from the vehicle with three alarm clocks pointing to 5 minutes to 12, and putting his arm affectionately around the old nag's neck, takes it into his confidence and delivers a speech such as Bonaparte delivered to the Pyramids, which so electrifies the animal that it throws up its head and with one shake of its mane is off like a flash at a giddy pace, fording streams, dashing through thickets and going cross country in a manner that brings the neighborhood out, gasping. But in the end, after a terrible shaking up, Jones finally gets to the Colby's and on time.
51362 ::: Hats Off (2008) ::: documentary ::: Hats Off profiles the beauty and eccentricities of an extraordinary woman, 93-year-old actress Mimi Weddell. With the style and grace of Katherine Hepburn, the smoky wit and wisdom of Dorothy Parker, and her own personal philosophy, "rise above it," Mimi is truly an iconic American original, rising above the mundane and difficult confines of her own daily life to reach for the stars and fulfill her dreams. Hats Off captures the essence of this most unusual woman, named at age 90 by New York Magazine as one of the "50 Most Beautiful People in New York," whose full-time acting career began at age 65 upon the passing of her husband, and whose daily routine mocks the traditional image of old age. From grueling 14-hour days at cattle call auditions to her weekly gymnastics and dance workouts, Mimi Weddell exudes a 'can-do, will-do' attitude in the face of life's trials and tribulations, and moves through her challenges with grace, encouraging us all to be more than we are. Shot over the course of 10 years, Hats Off covers a time span when most seniors are planning their funerals and estate bequests. Instead, Hats Off follows the breathtaking pace of Weddell, a bohemian free spirit now forced to share her east side Manhattan apartment with her two more traditionally-minded grown children and a grandchild. Like most families, their relationship is complex, and the mother-daughter/mother-son dynamic adds a fascinating layer of depth to an already compelling and entertaining film. When her beloved husband Dick dies, "leaving nothing behind but bills, poor man," Mimi does what she has to do to stay afloat, even attending an audition on the way to his memorial and landing the lead role in the cult film Dracula's Last Rites, which marks the beginning of her career. Since that time, 25 years ago, Mimi has been seen in print ads for companies Louis Vuitton, Burberry, Juicy Couture, and Nike, to name a few; in photo spreads for Vanity Fair and Vogue; on TV series including Sex and the City and Law and Order; and in feature films such as: Across the Universe, Hitch, and The Purple Rose of Cairo. But Weddell isn't a star. She never wanted to be. She just wants to work. An examination of family relationships, love, and ultimately the dreams which drive us.

With its rich historical references and undertones of political and social commentary, Kentridge's work has earned him inclusion in Time magazine's 2009 list of the 100 most influential people in the world. This documentary features exclusive interviews with Kentridge as he works in his studio and discusses his artistic philosophy and techniques. In the film, Kentridge talks about how his personal history as a white South African of Jewish heritage has informed recurring themes in his work-including violent oppression, class struggle, and social and political hierarchies. Additionally, Kentridge discusses his experiments with "machines that tell you what it is to look" and how the very mechanism of vision is a metaphor for "the agency we have, whether we like it or not, to make sense of the world." We see Kentridge in his studio as he creates animations, music, video, and projection pieces for his various projects, including Breathe (2008); I am not me, the horse is not mine (2008); and the opera The Nose (2010), which premiered earlier this year at New York's Metropolitan Opera to rave reviews. With its playful bending of reality and observations on hierarchical systems, the world of The Nose provides an ideal vehicle for Kentridge. The absurdism, he explains in the documentary's closing, "...is in fact an accurate and a productive way of understanding the world. Why should we be interested in a clearly impossible story? Because, as Gogol say s, in fact the impossible is what happens all the time."

He rescues Kate Manning ('Barbara Lawrence (I)' (qv)) from being lynched by a mob because she had killed the son of the towns's leading citizen while defending her honor, or what was left of it. Rescuing Kate is an important plot hinge, in a movie that makes little or no sense historically or plot-wise, as her father had ridden with Jesse James. Joe also has an idea that he can learn something by making contact with the Daltons, and his method of doing that is by holding up the train to steal an Army payroll, as he knows the Daltons had intended to steal it themselves and knows they will come looking for him. Being smart enough to beat them to the payroll evidently doesn't equate to being smart enough to know the Daltons are going to be more than a little miffed when they find him. The title is a misnomer since the long-dead Jesse James does not appear, and Joe also turns out to not be his son.

51549 ::: Det gode og det onde (1975) ::: documentary ::: An extension of The Perfect Human, Good and Evil is a longer, more expansive pseudo-documentary portrayal of life, no less. Using capacious titles or chapter headings that Leth's narrator's voice dwells upon and impresses upon us as he toys with the cliché "Faces", "Bodies", "Things", "Necessary actions", "Unnecessary actions", Good thoughts", "Bad thoughts", "Pleasant feelings", "Unpleasant feelings", and "Words" - the film consist of aesthetically titillating and contentually almost schematic scenes shot in the void of the film studio: faces, bodies and things. A man with a shoe. Another man with a hardboiled egg which he talks about and eats. A woman gives her husband a shirt. A couple who argue. A desperate woman. And so forth. There is no psychological shading of the characters, merely a series of sketches or examples that are as if plucked out of different everyday contexts. The thread leading back to Life in Denmark is thus also clear. The dialogue is sparse and phrases or fragments of phrases recur, spoken by different actors and in different roles, which may be viewed as an accentuation of the ordinariness of these little utterances and as an awareness of language as such. Besides the professional cast work the film uses several photographic models, the circus artiste Diana Benneweis, and the cyclist ole Ritter, who all pose in front of the camera in small tableaux. In addition to the craziness of the project the film also contains a series of zany comic acts with Claus Nissen to carry them. He bursts into song while washing his hands, dances in an empty room, plays rhythmic games with the statement "Bossa nova rhythms I have nothing against" and repeats his mysterious closing line from The Perfect Human: "Today, too, I had an experience ..." The framework for the scenes is made up of a couple of visual leitmotifs by way of house fronts and landscapes. In addition a beautiful travelling shot from an avenue at dramatically appropriate moments is accompanied by one of the two tunes by Gunner Mřller Pedersen from the film, sung in a girlish voice by Sanne Salomonsen. In 1999 Lars von Trier chose the film to represent Danish cinema at a number of European film festivals over a period of three years ("15 x 15: European Cinema Heritage").

Aristide and his Lavalas political party were democratically elected in 2000 by Haiti's poor majority. The film shows thousands of Aristide supporters gathered to celebrate his inauguration; he promised political and social change, better education, food, and health care for the masses. But not everyone was in favor of change. Haiti's business community and intelligentsia worked against Aristide from the very beginning. And they wouldn't accept, it seems, that a poor man's vote is worth as much as a rich man's. Internationally, most mainstream media reported only negatively on Aristide. At his ouster, they gave the impression that Aristide fled to South Africa out of concern for his safety. A transitional government was put in place as tens of thousands of pro-Aristide people took to the streets to demand his return.

Calling the demonstrators bandits, the Haitian police commit well-documented shootings, arrests and killings. Ironically, members of the UN are filmed telling people to listen to and respect the police. Although this documentary is a chronicle of oppression, the courage and hope of the poor masses of the Haitian people is by far the most unforgettable element of the story.

51744 ::: Le Park (2015) ::: short ::: A place with nebulous frontiers and laws. Characters captured in an existence whose outlines flee the camera's gaze. Such is the world of the old fairground located in the Arab League Park in Casablanca that Randa Maroufi leads us into. Actions frozen in gestures of exchange, expectation and aggression are played out following a score conducted by the artist who, in the manner of Eric Baudelaire, uses composition to explore reality. But this reality is also virtual, for these scenes come in part from a repertoire of violent self-representations found on the Internet. The artist reprises their vocabulary. Violence, she tells us, is a language, and its interpretation is a matter of context. A strange vitality emanates from the gentle immobility of the silent travelling shot that drifts through the scenes acted out by the local inhabitants, whether simply passing through or precarious residents. Like the roughness of the vegetal and urban architecture of the abandoned park, these existences are not festive, yet they celebrate life's endurance, a vital energy that is hidden yet tenacious. Maroufi's Le Park escapes along each hidden path, leading us on in a gentle dream whose outcome is never revealed to us. Indifferent to our presence, it murmurs its silent rhythm. These scenes, these lives - the artist began by approaching them with restraint, then trust, and always with respect. Without ever seeking to appropriate the indomitable park or the existences that inhabit it, Maroufi leads us into an intimate world on the threshold of an intensity at once real and fantasised. The artist thus draws, incisively yet delicately as if with a metal tip, a forgotten tale at the heart of the city but on the margins of the world.

51750 ::: Speaking in Tongues (2009) ::: documentary ::: While having a diverse ethnic mix of peoples within its borders, institutions in the United States in general strive for a mono-linguistic culture, namely English. However, what is increasingly being offered is language immersion programs in public schools, where everything is conducted in that language, except for the separate English class taught in English. These programs are not only populated by students of that ethnic background, but of other ethnicities as well. Durrell, a black child, is starting in Mandarin immersion. Ethnic Anglo Julian has been in Chinese (both Cantonese and Mandarin) immersion for nine years. Hispanic Jason, whose parents don't speak English, is in Spanish immersion. And Chinese Kelly, whose parents don't speak Cantonese, is in Cantonese immersion. Parents are choosing to send their children to language immersion programs so that they may be provided greater opportunities in their future. Some parents, however, fear that English will be compromised in the process, although in reality the exact opposite is true. Some also fear that their child's learning of the second language will be hindered by the parents themselves not knowing the language, or conversely that their own fluency in the language is therefore taking their child's valuable time away from learning English. But being in the United States, many children, unless forced to retain that second language, revert to English for socialization in the English dominated culture. Linguistic activist Dr. Ling-chi Wang has proposed what some consider a radical idea for the San Francisco school district: that all public school students become bilingual. He is hoping that Durrell, Julian, Jason and Kelly will be good examples of what can be accomplished by this proposal.

Just as these customs rely on the communities themselves to mark each point with song, remembrance and a gathering together, the very need to survive lies in the hands of your neighbour. The Unthanks discover these stories through singing, dancing, meeting people who have grown up with these traditions and trying not to get set on fire.

51865 ::: Gregory Crewdson: The Aesthetics of Repression (2005) ::: documentary ::: Gregory Crewdson is the leading figure in a major movement in photography, one that favors fantasy over realism and is often inspired by the cinema. Crewdson is interested in the psychology underlying the American suburban experience and finds photography to be the ideal medium to create the tense and often eerie scenes he envisions. His photographs emphasize the human condition; the melancholic nature of life in the suburbs and the alienation between individuals. An important early influence was a visit with his father at age 10 to an exhibition of photographs by Diane Arbus at MoMA. His father was a psychoanalyst who practiced in the basement of their Brooklyn home. Much like a film director he achieves his startling images by working with a professional crew including a director of photography, a camera operator, a production designer, actors and a casting director. Astonishingly elaborate sets are the rule for most of the "incidents" he creates. These tableaux are often based on paintings by American artists, including Edward Hopper and Norman Rockwell as well as scenes from well-known movies by directors such as Alfred Hitchcock and Steven Spielberg. Crewdson is observed and questioned closely during his work on ten new images in as many different sets.

What is the difference between granite and basalt and - why aren't all the craters on earth of volcanic origin? In my trips to spectacular places characterized by highly concentrated deposits of rock - the basalt on the Pacific Ring of Fire, the sandstone in the American West, granite in the cold French Atlantic and the marble quarries in Rajasthan - I find answers.

He explored an area unknown to the outside world, documenting its wildlife and determining the geography of a remote lake, Aylmer. I led an expedition to the lake in 2015; its goal was to relocate and document the important places Seton had visited 108 years earlier.

There are no scandals or affairs which can endanger his candidacy. Frank decides to give up his investi-gations, much to the delight of his 18-year-old daughter; Emma believes that her father will have more time for her. Together with the young journalist Carlo, Frank accidentally comes across two puzzling murders. He discovers that both victims had worked as scientists in nuclear power plants from which considerable amounts of highly dangerous enriched plutonium have disappeared. When a third body is found in Rome, however, Frank decides to get to the bottom of things. He therefore pays a visit to one of the dead black sailor's colleagues, who is in hospital in the intensive care unit. But Frank is obviously not the only one who takes an interest in the case. He has just found out that the sailor is dying because he was exposed to an overdose of radioactivity when he witnesses an attempt to kill the man. In the ensuing gunfight, a policeman is shot. Now Roman superintendent Morelli takes charge of the case. Morelli, however, is the one Frank has seen in hospital... Frank is arrested on suspicion of murder. He confides in super-intendent Aquani, who also has his doubts about Morelli. He warns Frank not to interfere with his investigations. But it would take more than a warning to stop Frank, once he has sensed a scoop. The trail leads Frank to a small port where he finds a rusty, inconspicuous freighter loaded with the stolen plutonium. Frank tries to convince Aquani that he has stumbled on a gang of plutonium smugglers. But before the Italian authorities have a chance to stop the freighter, it is already in international waters heading for a small African country - at least that is what Frank has found out. Frank asks Carlo to find out about the owner of the ship and flies to Africa. In the meantime the freighter loaded with the highly dangerous cargo has docked. Together with Limey, an old friend who has been living in Africa for a long time, Frank observes how the deadly cargo is unloaded from the freighter and put onto a truck. Frank drives the truck to a safe hideaway. In the meantime, Carlo has found out that the ship is owned by a Swiss arms dealer called Steuben, who also works with terrorist organizations. In Africa Frank meets an attractive woman. Catherine turns out to be a scientist contracted for Euratom in Brussels. But she does not believe Frank's story; she takes it for journalistic speculation inspired by the wish for a sensational scoop. Two things arouse her suspicion, too. Steuben has flown to Africa in the meantime. On a beach in Lutresh he holds a kind of auction. The Participants: representatives of many different countries. But what is he trying to sell, the plutonium? Frank's hands are the ultimate proof. While having a closer look at the freighter's cargo, Frank's hands were slightly con-taminated. Frank flies back to Rome to track down Steuben, only to walk into a trap. He is charged with rape. Superintendent Aquani has not been idle in the meantime. He can now prove that Morelli is indeed involved in the plutonium smuggling. By arresting Frank he wanted to prevent the journalist from uncovering more and more details. The girl Frank is said to have raped cannot identify him. She turns out to be one of Morelli's marionettes. Aquani is now able to arrest his corrupt colleague. Frank visits Steuben in Paris and tells him that he has found out about his wheelings and dealings. Steuben commits suicide. In his office, Frank discovers a suitcase stuffed with 500,000 dollars and a ticket to New York. He flies to New York, pretends to be Steuben's agent and hands over the suitcase. Never leaving the case out of sight, he observes how the money is delivered to the campaign headquarters of the presidential candidate Scanzano. Frank joins Catherine, who has come to New York in order to report their discoveries to the nuclear lobby of the UN. But before Frank can warn Catherine about the killers of the plutonium mafia, she is murdered. The UNC henchmen don't even shrink from assaulting Frank's family. But Carlo, who has followed Frank to New York, courageously steps in. Suzann and Emma survive the murder attempt. After Frank gets his family into safety, he manages to meet with Scanzano and realizes that the politician is an honorable man who is completely oblivious to the way his campaign is being financed. Scanzano, however, has no choice but to resign. Frank's daughter Emma now hopes that her father will have more time for his family. But Frank already has another explosive story for somewhere in Africa there is an abandoned truck with a dangerous load.

The story is told chronologically, beginning with Captain William Kidd, who is stereotyped as a pirate more so than a successful privateer. Thousands of Scots put their lives on the line to leave their precious homeland for a better life. Many were forced to leave as their wealthy landlords, who often shared the same surname, determined that sheep were worth more than people. Others arrived as indentured servants or mercenaries. The Scots quickly assimilated to their new surroundings as merchants, clergy, physicians, lawyers and politicians. Three signers of the Declaration of Independence were members of New York's oldest charity, the Saint Andrew's Society of the State of New York. Men of Scottish descent founded early New York City newspapers such as The New York Post and the Herald Tribune. In the Civil War, the 79th NYSVM "Highlanders" served New York City and the Union proud. The regiment was comprised of members of the New York Caledonian Club. Andrew Carnegie was an active businessman and philanthropist in New York City. Baseball legend Bobby Thomson, born in Glasgow, hit his "shot heard round the world," as a New York Giant. Scottish country dancing groups can be found all throughout the city as well as Scottish football supporters. Tartan Day is celebrated on April 6th in Central Park and November 30th is St. Andrew's Day. The Tartan Apple intercuts dramatic re-creation scenes of the American Revolution and the American Civil War with narration, interviews and archival material that include parade footage of the New York Caledonian Club in Central Park from the late 1800's and several carte de viste portrait photographs.

Despite Skeeter's life-long friendships hanging in the balance, she and Aibileen continue their collaboration and soon more women come forward to tell their stories -- and as it turns out, they have a lot to say. Along the way, unlikely friendships are forged and a new sisterhood emerges, but not before everyone in town has a thing or two to say themselves when they become unwittingly -- and unwillingly -- caught up in the changing times. In Jackson, Mississippi, in the 60's, the aspirant writer Skeeter Phelan has just graduated and returns home after finding a job writing in a futile newspaper column in the local newspaper. When she arrives home, she finds that her nanny and family's maid Constantine Jefferson is gone. Skeeter sees the chance of writing a book about the relationship of the black maids with the Southern society for an editor from New York. First she convinces Aibileen Clark to open her heart to her; then Minny Jackson is unfairly fired by the arrogant Hilly Holbrook, who is a leader in the racist high society, and Minny decides to tell her stories after finding a job with the outcast Celia Foote. Soon eleven other maids accept to be interviewed by Skeeter that also tells the truth about Constantine. When the book "The Help" is released, Jackson's high society will never be the same. The time, the early 1960's, the place, Jackson, Mississippi. Eugenia Phalen - Skeeter to her friends and family - has just graduated from Ole Miss and has returned home in part to take care of her seriously ill mother. Unlike her female friends and colleagues who used their Ole Miss time solely to find a husband, Skeeter, who has never dated or had a boyfriend despite wanting romance in her life, strives primarily for a career, either as a serious journalist or editorialist. In Skeeter's social circle, the family servants, called "the help", are exclusively black. The female servants do the cooking and cleaning, but their primary responsibility is child rearing. The servants get passed down within families from generation to generation, so the child that they raised ultimately becomes the boss. Fifty year old Aibileen Clark is one such servant, who works for Skeeter's easily influenced friend, Elizabeth Leefolt. Skeeter asks Aibileen to help her with her newly acquired job, answering a housekeeping advice column. However, incidents that happen around Skeeter, including her mother seemingly being less than forthright about what happened to their own now absent female servant, the elderly Constantine Jefferson, who raised Skeeter and who Skeeter loved like a mother, make Skeeter come to the decision to write about the experiences of the black female servants in relation to their white bosses. Elaine Stein, a senior editor with Harper & Row in New York, approves the concept, but she knows that Skeeter getting the servants to talk, which Skeeter ultimately discovers is against the law in Mississippi, will be difficult if not impossible. Aibileen, the first and only servant who Skeeter asks, initially refuses Skeeter's request. But incidents around Aibileen ultimately get her and her acerbic-tongued best friend, Minny Jackson, who has long worked for the Walters family and now works for the Walters' racist daughter Hilly Holbrook, to talk to Skeeter on the sly about their experiences. One of those incidents involves Hilly's "Home Help Sanitation Initiative", which would ban any black servant from using their white employer's washroom. Minny's experiences also include those with Celia Foote, a young uncultured woman new to the area who has never had servants, who is now married to Hilly's old boyfriend Johnny Foote, and who is shunned by Hilly and her social circle for supposedly cheating with Johnny while he and she were still dating. Even if Harper & Row or any other firm publishes the book, Skeeter and by association any servant who helped her may have a continued rough road ahead in overcoming the resulting wrath, especially by Hilly and her type.

52245 ::: We Will Be Remembered for This (2007) ::: documentary ::: It is a film for everyone. It is a clear, rational and non-politicised look at the human issues of Australia's mandatory immigration detention policy. This film poses the essential questions surrounding Australia's refugee policy. Who are the people behind the fences? How did they come to be there? What are the psychological and legal battles they now face? How much do average Australians know about this policy, and if they knew the truth, would they want it to change? To create this film, the film-makers drew together a diverse group of people. A teacher, a nurse, a handful of uni students, travelers and an academic. Some who had never visited detention, others who had done so for years, and one who had experienced it for himself. Those opposed to the policy, those in support, and those as yet undecided. Some who had never really thought about it, another who thought about it for a living, and others in between. The film-makers' objective was almost experimental: to rise above social, cultural and political differences, to draw out common threads upon which all could agree. In other words, this film strips back politics and encourages viewers to see the issue for what it really is: profoundly human. In 2006, a group of young people of different nationalities, backgrounds, attitudes and political views took a trip to the Baxter Detention Centre. The stories of the people they met behind the razor wire surprised, moved and challenged them. 'We Will Be Remembered For This' documents their journey.

52387 ::: "Brown Guys Do" (2013) ::: comedy ::: Back in the early 2000s, there was a comedy troupe named Mixed Nuts. It played sold out shows and garnered rave reviews. What was unique about the troupe was that it featured a very multicultural cast that did every accent or character under the sun. The goal was to push minorities (South Asian) into the mainstream. It's obviously happened in the interim, but one thing that has remained missing is showcasing the ability to do voices beyond East Indian, Arabic (thanks for all the wonderful terrorist roles btw) or regular North American. That's where "Brown Guys Do" steps in. It shows that people of colour have a range of talent to do accents and characters beyond those typically associated with their race or background.

While Sacajawea's image adorns more monuments than any woman in US history, including the US Mint's golden one-dollar coin, what has history really taught us about her? Was she the heroine she has been made out to be? Did she truly guide the expedition? Was she the first woman to "vote" in America? Was she Hidatsa or Shoshone? Did she spell her name with a "J" or a "G" or a "K?" How long did she live? Where is she buried? South Dakota or Wyoming? The Spirit of Sacajawea: Native Stories examines all of these questions through the eyes of her ancestors.

It was almost immediately after the invention of the motion picture camera that the first pornographic films went into production. While those early movies slipped through by masquerading as "art films," the increased censorship of the 1920s meant that these raunchy pictures had to be watched behind closed doors - at brothels, gentlemen's clubs, firehouses, and down in basements. These illegal productions were called stag films, blue movies, or "smokers." Even the processing of these films had to be kept secret, with many of them developed in bathtubs that once were used to make bootleg who had one of these racy shockers in their possession. But if you were caught watching them, you could end up in jail! In this collection you'll see a Park Avenue socialite have an affair with her faithful maid, a tough guy getting a "delivery" of "secret plans" from a blonde femme fatale, and a case of mistaken identity that works out well for every member of the party involved.

The narrative is split into two parts and point of views; that of the immigration clerks and that of the immigrants. It is a Monday morning. Sarah, Marge and Ashley, the three immigration clerks, prepare themselves for another morning, another week. They have worked with each other for several years and have grown to hate each other. Day after day they wait for the line in front of them to get smaller, but it only gets bigger. The spectator follows their conversation in one continuous shot, going from one officer to the next, with a slow camera movement. The immigrants on the other side of the Plexiglas appear distant, foreign and disruptive, sometimes even arrogant when interrupting the personal conversation among the officers. Finally the camera reaches the last officer, Marge, who serves the first immigrant of the day, Abdul-Mateen, a young Sudanese man. He cautiously walks to the counter and presents his papers to file for refugee status. Marge sees a minor mistake, and recommends that he should come back another day. Abdul-Mateen has heard this before. He becomes furious and hits the counter in front of him with his hand. The second half of the narrative deals with the immigrants. The camera is now hand held, more immediate and the lighting is more comforting. They enter, take a seat and wait. The room fills and little groups form. There are three Indian men, two Russian men, an old Chinese couple, three Nigerian men, a Nigerian woman with her young daughter and a young European girl talking on her phone. Abdul-Mateen and Hasim, his friend, are amongst them. At first the immigrants speak in their own languages or sit silently waiting. Slowly their speech is translated in subtitles and the spectator is invited to identify with them. Although they all come from different parts of the world and different cultures, they share similar concerns. They look at the immigration officers with fear and worry. Finally Abdul-Mateen is called up to the window by Marge. The same dialogue occurs, with Marge denying him refugee status. This time the spectator can see Marge's face, which was not visible in the earlier part, and we realize that she does not even look at Abdul-Mateen, seemingly ignoring him completely. This he has experienced many times before. In front of her Abdul-Mateen is not a person, but a case file, a number. His frustration in the totally impersonal treatment comes out. He hits the counter. The image ends here. Only sound remains and we hear Abdul-Mateen being taken down by a security guard. Hasim joins the fight. There is an obvious struggle. Finally we hear Ashley's voice, as indifferent as always calling for the next immigrant to approach the counter and the routine is about to start again.

52549 ::: "Punishment: Cruel and Unusual" (2001) ::: documentary ::: Throughout history, man has shown infinite creativity in his ability to inflict pain on his fellow man.

But it was arrival of the Spanish inquisition in the 13 century which heralded a new age of blood chilling instruments of agony. With the 17th century Age of Enlightenment, a new way of thinking was dawning. Breakthroughs in science and philosophy led to the search for more humane ways of punishing criminals. Instead of filthy, dank dungeons, prisons were formed to help the prisoner rehabilitate back into society and punishment by execution evolved from the slow strangulation of petty thieves at Tyburn into today's simple pin-prick of the lethal injection. But despite their best attempts, reformers had failed to remove cruel and unusual punishment and torture from society.

Australian scientists Barry Marshall and Robin Warren journey to the prize-winners' podium is more than just a trip to the opposite side of the world to sub-zero temperatures, cultural pomp and extreme Swedish scheduling-it has been a career of trial and error, endless research and Aussie-battler-style stubborn determination. Today, this odd couple of science travel the globe as heroes-ambassadors of the science world-but it was 23 years ago in a modest hospital laboratory in Perth, that Marshall and Warren discovered a bacterium that survived in the human stomach that they called Helicobacter pylori. They believed that this bacterium, not stress, caused gastritis and peptic stomach ulcers, much to the chagrin of the medical world, which at the time scorned them. After years of careful observation, luck and persistence, they finally had the breakthrough they needed, but not before Marshall infected himself, using his own body as a guinea pig to test their theory. Something that a pathologist noticed as a tiny blue line under a microscope was now a documented new species. The questioning minds of Marshall and Warren have revolutionised the medical community's approach to treatment and dramatically improved the health prospects of millions of people by identifying the real cause of peptic stomach ulcers. This film follows Marshall and Warren's curious and unpretentious lives, capturing their off-beat humour, the people that surround them, struggles, mateship and their paradigm-shifting finding to reveal the profound impact, wonder and excitement of groundbreaking scientific discovery. Through them and other Nobel laureates, we discover what it's really like to win. We also celebrate Australia's proud history of Nobel Prize for Medicine recipients.

A middle-aged widowed eccentric, Beatrice is looking for her life in the classified ads while all about her is the rubble of an unkempt house. All she needs is the right opportunity, she says puffing on a cigarette. Poorly equipped to survive the vagaries of modern life, she has nonetheless always managed to muddle through. Ruth, epileptic and making her way through the rebellious phase of adolescence, seems doomed to make the same mistakes as her mother. Quiet Matilda, on the other hand, seeks refuge in her animals and her schoolwork. "Jesus, don't you hate the world, Matilda?" Beatrice asks her youngest daughter. The title of the film is also the subject of Matilda's science project at school and serves as a metaphor for the way life affects each of us differently -- how some are able to find opportunity in adversity and thrive and how some succumb when the burden becomes too heavy. This is the story of slowly drowning and grasping desperately for a lifeline only to find that there's none there and you must save yourself. "No, Mama," Matilda says, "I don't hate the world." (Nell Potts, who stars as Matilda, is the stage name of Eleanor Newman -- Joanne Woodward's real-life daughter. She also appeared as the young Rachel in *Rachel, Rachel*.) Widowed Beatrice Hunsdorfer is miserable in her life, and in turn she has contempt for everyone around her. She blames everyone except herself for her problems, but most specifically her now deceased husband George who left her before he died. People who know her believe she's crazy. She dreams of a better life - mostly by wanting to open a tea room where she would sell what she believes would be her world famous cheesecake - while realistically not being able to achieve that dream as she lounges around her run down and unkempt house smoking, drinking, reading the personal ads in the newspaper, and somewhat taking care of her elderly boarder, which is how she makes ends meet. Her eldest daughter, Ruth Hunsdorfer, knows the reputation her mother has around town. Although she displays some teen-aged bravada, Ruth seems destined to be just like her mother. Beatrice's younger daughter, Matilda 'Tillie' Hunsdorfer, is the quiet, shy but intelligent offspring. Tillie is supported by her teacher, Mr. Goodman, in achieving academic excellence. The dysfunctional family dynamic is placed to the test in the lead up to the school's science fair awards ceremony, where Tillie's project on the effect of gamma rays on man-in-the-moon marigold seeds is one of five shortlisted for the grand prize, the resulting seedlings which seem to mirror the Hunsdorfer family itself.

Islamism seeks to resurrect Muslim society from 300 years of decline by returning to its historic formula for success: Islamic law and government over Muslim lands. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has carefully laid out the Islamist view of the world for several years. He depicts a morally superior Muslim society based on Islamic concepts of justice, equality, and human dignity, while proclaiming America selfish, corrupt, hypocritical, and oppressive. Islamist animosity toward America also focuses on U.S. alliances with autocratic regimes in the Muslim world like Egypt, Jordan and Saudi Arabia as well as American support for Israel, "the illegitimate offspring of the Great Satan." In order to achieve "a new beginning with the Muslim world," President Barack Obama has emphasized the"shared hopes and common dreams" of America and Islam, while expressing regret over past U.S. treatment of Muslim nations. Meanwhile, Obama is committed to diplomacy with Iran as the path toward nuclear compromise and reconciliation. However, despite having "generations of Muslims" in his family, does President Obama really understand Islam's world view? By tracing the history of Islam's great conquests and determined struggles against non-believers since the time of the Prophet Muhammad, Director Joel Gilbert illustrates that Islam's values and goals are decidedly different from and mostly incompatible with Western secular society. "Marg-bar Amreeka (Death to America)!" Atomic Jihad leaves little doubt that Iran is in the final stages of preparing a Coming War for Islamic Revival. Meanwhile, by seeking to appease Ahmadinejad with "change" in U.S. Middle East policy, President Obama is ushering in the Politics of Defeat for America. If successful in its nuclear program, Iran and its allies will finally possess the means to achieve their ultimate goals - the defeat of America and the return of Islam to past glory.

52717 ::: A sírásó (2010) ::: drama ::: A stranger comes to town in this adaptation Rainer Maria Rilke short story, and gets a job as a gravedigger - and the adoration of the local bigwig's daughter. She spends entire days with him in the cemetery garden, talking about death and dying. A plague befalls the town, sparing only a few, leaving them the task of pushing coffin-laden wagons to the cemetery. The film uses the same camera that records horse racing photo finishes; it does not provide the feeling of space like an ordinary film or photographic camera. Gravedigger lacks the illusion of movement typical of most films. Photographed images track from left to right across the screen. Deformed and fuzzy, as if shot by a trembling hand, the images look like blurred film frames, moving too slowly to create the impression of movement, sometimes forming surreal or abstract compositions. The director takes the audience to pre-Lumičre cinema to experience motion picture construction (panoramas) and narration.

52723 ::: Man of Two Havanas (2007) ::: documentary ::: Okay, here's the situation. I was born in Havana. That makes me Cuban. But, I was raised in little Havana, which makes me Cuban-American. However, since I don't see Castro as the root of all evil in the universe, nor would I strangle him with my bare hands given the opportunity, I am a little out of step with my tribe. I always have been. And I really don't care. My dad, on the other hand, does care. He cares a great deal. Back in Havana he was a revolutionary and fought alongside Castro for the freedom of the Cuban people. Then he had a falling out with his old friend and it was Miami, here we come. But his animosity towards Castro did not last and he soon wanted dialogue with the Cuban government. Perhaps, to live in peace. That's when the shit hit the fan. Bombings, death threats and drive by shootings were a daily occurrence in our home. But who would do this to us? We were Americans. Surely, it must be the Communists, right? Wrong. My father became the focal point of the anti-Castro terrorists. These are Americans, people, like you and me. Well, not exactly. They were trained by the CIA. What most Americans don't know is that terrorism in America did not begin on September 11th. In the 1970s and 1980s, there was a reign of terror in Miami. There were as many as seven bombings in one day and hundreds per year. The culprits were not Communists. They were Americans. And my family was at the epicenter. Bombs away. *** With a childhood filled with bombings and assassination attempts on her father, the filmmaker explores her relationship with him and the Cuba he left behind.

On September 22, 2003, he was arrested in Katmandu, Nepal, by police who want to charge him with two murders committed twenty six years ago. Charles Sobhraj' recent capture is opening up a Pandora's Box of a man who has been variously labeled as the most evil man of the 20th century, a serial killer, a brilliant disguise artist, a modern Don Juan who uses women to achieve his goals, an escape artist able to break out of a dozen maximum security jails, an existential animal without morality, the ultimate liar and disguise artist of our time. Sobhraj has never been convicted of even one of the alleged fifty murders he was accused of in Thailand, India, Nepal and elsewhere - most of them young backpackers on the dope and Nirvana trail of the seventies. When he was eventually captured in India in the 70s, Sobhraj avoided certain trial and execution in Thailand by contriving to have himself jailed for twenty years in India. In Tihar jail, Delhi, he became its don and patronized and won the friendship of Islamic terrorist leaders who were his jail mates. On his release he sought and was given French nationality as part of a bargain between Indian and French governments. Eventually living in Paris, he turned to arms dealing and through his jail acquaintances began supplying arms to the Taliban and other jehadi groups based in Pakistan. He even boasts of his brokerage of a possible nuclear deal with Iraq. The story of his life as a boy during the Vietnam war, his abandonment by his father, the story of his progress into crime and his trail of serial murders, the twenty years in an Indian jail and his precarious arms-dealing existence after his release make Charles Sobhraj the subject of an extreme drama of our times. Told through the eyes of his victims, a researcher who has spent 30 years on his case, the police who chased him, the women who loved him, his confidants and friends, and last but not least Charles Sobhraj himself, "Snake" reconstructs the life and journey of this fascinating and terrifying character.

52731 ::: Ghost Town: The Movie (2007) ::: western ::: Dean Teaster's GHOST TOWN "The Movie", is a unique "Eastern" Western. It is N.C. native Dean Teaster's tribute to his father Robert Doyle Teaster and "Ghost Town In The Sky" theme park. The theme park was a large piece of the childhood happiness for Dean's family and many families since its opening in 1961. This story combines actual family facts of the Teaster family fictionalized into a story that encompasses the best elements of the staged gunfights performed by the Legendary "Ghost Town Gunfighters" throughout the years at the park. Many of the original actors have returned for roles in the film. Former "Ghost Town Gunfighters" Robert Bradley once known as "The Apache Kid," Herbert Cowboy Coward "GrandPappy," and Harry Valentine "The Golden Voice of Ghost Town" play pivotal roles in the film as does Alaska Presley who was one of the original park founders. Dean Teaster reprises the role of "Digger" made famous by his father. This movie was created to offset many of the "Hillbilly" stereotypes often depicted with this area. The movie paints a picture of this beautiful mountain region that was settled by the overseas Celtic people. These settlers were full of rich traditions and a true grit that allowed them to survive and thrive during the rugged 1800's period of US History often shown in western films. This movie may well be the birth of a sub genre of the western known as "The Eastern." With a slight romantic edge this movie is chalked full of messages about love, hate, family, forgiveness, redemption and sacrifice. This film builds on a regional theme where conflict was often fought over family honor versus land as often depicted in westerns due to the gold rushes and land acquisitions and expansions. Being a lover of the western genre I think that we have told a story that will entertain many generations of people and with the re-opening of the "Ghost Town In The Sky" theme park we look forward to bright future built upon the past.

Each chapter of his story reveals the key to the answer to one of the game show's questions. Each chapter of Jamal's increasingly layered story reveals where he learned the answers to the show's seemingly impossible quizzes. But one question remains a mystery: what is this young man with no apparent desire for riches really doing on the game show? When the new day dawns and Jamal returns to answer the final question, the Inspector and sixty million viewers are about to find out. At the heart of its storytelling lies the question of how anyone comes to know the things they know about life and love. Jamal and his brother Salim were raised in the slums of Mumbai. Orphaned at a young age, they managed to survive as did their young friend Latika. Jamal becomes a contestant on India's version of Who Wants To Be A Millionnaire. He manages to get to 10 million rupees in his first appearance but is arrested by the police who want to know how an illiterate 'slumdog' - as children raised in the slum are called - could possibly know all of those answers without cheating. He explains how specific events in his life taught him the answers and all he can say that being asked questions to which he knows the answers is simply fate. He hopes that fate will give at least one more good turn as he had a very specific reason for going on the show in the first place. The quintessence thirst to know and absorb the eesence of love and life, emulates through a story of a slum boy Jamal, participating in a Indian television reality show, Koun Banaga Cororpati.

(2000)_ (qv), the Indian version of the television game show _"Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" (1998)_ (qv). He's only one correct question away from the big prize. However, some, including those associated with the game show, question how someone like Jamal, a self confessed non-genius who grew up in the slums of Mumbai, can be doing so well on the show when others who are brighter, more educated and wealthier than him have failed. Is Jamal cheating? Is it purely luck that they have asked him the questions to which he knows the answers? Seeing Jamal's life journey to this point ultimately answers these questions. His life journey includes being orphaned at an early age; growing up with an older brother, Salim, who was both his guardian/protector and antagonist; and having a relationship since childhood with another orphaned child, a girl named Latika. His motivation for being on the show also may provide some answers to his success. Perhaps it was all just meant to be. In Mumbai, the eighteen year-old orphan from the slums Jamal Malik is tortured by the policemen in a precinct accused of cheating a game show. Jamal, who has no education and works in a call center serving tea, is close to wining twenty million rupees in the show _"Kaun Banega Crorepati?"

On her way home (with Boris constantly tagging along), Lida discovers along with her father that the roof of their apartment has collapsed and is now uninhabitable. After some amazingly quick work, they receive permission to move into the same Cheryomushki. Working as a steam shovel engineer at this Cheryomushki is Lyusya, who is Sergei's girlfriend. She also has just obtained an apartment there and is waiting to hear the question that Sergei is too shy to ask.

Drebednev is the corrupt real estate manager who gives (or more often doesn't give) permission for people to take an apartment in the Cheryomushki. Additionally, Vava is a friend of Boris. To make Vava happier, Boris convinces Drebednev to expand their 2-bedroom apartment into a 4-room apartment. But when he breaks down the walls, he has to evict the tenants in the next apartment, Lida and her father. They are heartbroken and have to now worry about going through the long process of receiving another apartment. Meanwhile, as Masha and Sasha move in, they discover that none of their neighbors have keys, so they all spend an evening of singing and dancing in Masha's and Sasha's apartment. Realizing Lida's plight, Boris suggests to Vava that two 2-bedroom apartments are better than one 4-bedroom apartment. Drebednev returns the aparment to Lida and her father, is unmasked as a bureaucrat, and Vava chooses to get a divorce. Finally, through the help of a bench, Sergei gets the courage to ask Lyusya to marry him. In the end of the film, Lida still rejects Boris, who is one of the crewmen detonating Drebednev's old office. He picks the petals of a daisy ("she loves me, she loves me not") when the detonation goes off, thrusting him up several floors on to Lida's terrace, and presumably to a happy end for all.

From the minute he checks into his hotel with his ancient American Tourister and cummerbund money belt, it's clear Tim has no idea how the modern world really works. He is soon smitten with seductive Nebraskan insurance agent Joan Ostrowski-Fox (Heche) and awed by his experienced roommates, the straight-shooting Ronald Wilkes (Whitlock Jr.) and the suspicious Dean Zeigler (Reilly). Disheartened when he comes face-to-face with corporate corruption, Tim is ultimately lured beyond the lobby into an urban jungle he's only ever seen on DVD and when it seems his life - and chances to succeed - have gone completely topsy-turvy, he finds his own unjaded way to turn it all around.

He loves his job as an insurance salesman for Brown Star Insurance, owned for twenty-five years by Bill Krogstad. Tim truly tries to do what's best for his clients.

Brown Star's winning streak is threatened when just before the upcoming ASMI convention, Roger dies under somewhat shady circumstances. His death not only means that he won't be making the presentation this year, but those shady circumstances, which if they came to ASMI's attention, would taint Brown Star's reputation as ASMI has a strong Christian morality at its core. Bill decides to send Tim to the convention as Brown Star's representative despite Tim feeling non-confident in heading to the big city to fill Roger's big shoes. At the convention, Tim is ill-prepared to deal with the people he meets, from the three conventioneers with who he ultimately hangs - Dean Ziegler, Joan Ostrowski-Fox, and Ronald Wilkes - to Bree, the young woman loitering in the convention hotel parking lot, she who he is naively unaware is a hooker. They are all outside his mentality of that comfortable Brown Valley life.

52998 ::: Mellodrama (2008) ::: documentary ::: Mellodrama, a documentary by Dianna Dilworth, explores the rising and falling fortunes of the Mellotron - the first musical keyboard to "sample" the sounds of other instruments - from its birth in a California garage in the 1950s, through its dominance on concert stages in the 1970s, through its almost religious cult of followers in the 2000s. From the Beatles' "Strawberry Fields" to Black Sabbath to Kanye West, Mellodrama is a 50-year odyssey of musical invention, revolution, betrayal, and rediscovery. The Mellotron is a keyboard instrument that plays prerecorded tape loops. It was invented as the Chamberlin organ in Harry Chamberlin's Southern California backyard in the late 1940s. Harry wanted to sell his "orchestra at your fingertips" to every Aunt Mable in America, and drove his motor home across America doing so. But his trusted salesman Bill Franson took two instruments to England, and found manufacturers to replicate the Chamberlin. Under this dubious pretense, the Mellotron was born. Soon, through the music of the Beatles, the Zombies, and the Moody Blues, the Mellotron became the "instant magic sound." In the 1970s, the Mellotron defined the sound of progressive rock bands like King Crimson, Roxy Music, and Genesis. Though forgotten during the 1980s, when digital synthesizers hijacked pop music, the Mellotron is today again a highly desired and sought-after device, a connection for artists like Radiohead and Kanye West to the mystical lost world of invention and possibility.

Jews and Muslims, either from Arab or Berber origin, are generally proud of Morocco's diversity. But around 50 years ago, an irreparable break tore apart Morocco's social fabric. In addition to the sufferings provoked by French colonialism and years of authoritarianism under the former King Hassan II, the foundation of the state of Israel and its need for Jewish immigration had huge consequences on Morocco's Jewish community. The Israeli intelligence infiltrated Morocco to scare Jews into leaving their homeland, arguing that Muslims were a threat for them. Today, Morocco's once thriving Jewish community has only around 2000 members left. Through the lives and testimonies of Fanny, Pinhas, David and Vanessa, we revisit this troubled and often taboo period of history. The characters tell us about why they decided to come back to Morocco, a country that could be an example of religious cohabitation for today's disintegrating Middle East. Fanny once left Casablanca illegally to Israel, and ended up being a human rights activist in France. Pinhas left his Berber village as a child and never really recovered from the separation: wasn't Morocco his true homeland after all? David never left and made a fortune by buying real estate from departing Jews. Vanessa's family left Morocco 200 years ago. Today, she moved from the United States to Casablanca to research and sing traditional Moroccan Jewish music. But life is not always easy for them in Morocco. Indeed, the Arab-Israeli conflict makes it harder for Moroccan Jews to define their place in the Kingdom. However, Muslims and Jews alike are committed to preserve Morocco's Jewish memory, an indelible element of Morocco's society.

53080 ::: Timebased_Body (2000) ::: short ::: A floating, sparkling chunk moves toward the camera and briefly fills the picture with a fleeting flash of light. the strange object seems to be stranded before the viewer's eyes, and in the following shot the camera approaches the amorphous sculpture in a circling motion, which then flits out of view to find form in its own movements. The outline of a human figure is briefly visible, though long enough to form a trail for the viewer's gaze, which somewhat unsteadily probes the wavering lump. this trail leads to the inspiration for einar's computer animation: an image of the human body. einar, an ensemble of animation artists, uses live footage of a human body to extract, a single image at a time, the outline of an animated two-dimensional image. The visual grammar of the live footage, i.e. the alteration of the focal length, the camera angle and editing techniques, give the virtual bodies their shape. The bodies are used to translate temporal length into spatial depth. Though the Cartesian conception of the body, according to which it occupies a certain amount of three dimensional space, is applied, this presence is exclusively temporal in timebased_body. In the flow of time, the (two dimensional) contours of the human body fade and take on fascinatingly irritating forms in a fictitious space. (Robert Buchschwenter)

This documentary analyzes the relationships between war, cult films, serial killers and pornography to prove whether or not this pervasive myth is, in fact, reality.

As a result, this bold documentary leaves space for the viewer to make his own choice, but in the end, whether the snuff film exists or not is debatable; the real horror is that we are all encircled by death in our modern societies, and that is a certainty.

53238 ::: Timau (1998) ::: short ::: Three partially uniformed men in a car driving up a mountainous road. Having arrived at a parking place, they unload their heavy cases. They set off up a narrow mountain track between bushes and boulders. Ropes appear - a safety measure, and shortly thereafter the climb takes them into a dark, narrow and wet tunnel in a cliff. There, feeling their way forward and groaning they go up and down in a never-ending rocky gorge accompanied by the threatening sound of falling stones. It should be said that here the framework and conditions (which are difficult to make out), distort towards the grotesque. After this intended exaggeration they do manage to escape into the open air and events immediately take a conventional turn - the men arrive at a mountain lodge complex where they begin servicing a long-distance telephone box situated there. (Dabernig/Scherer) To some extent Dabernig / Scherer identify with one of their protagonists who, in spite of a physical handicap, does not allow anyone to help him on the steep climb which is, in addition, exceptional and, one could say, strangely old fashioned operation. But, just as this Post Office employee never loses his countenance as chauffeur or later as hiker, the film makers never slip into the trap of simple pleasantries. This is not a visual joke, although it always threatens to tip over and neither is it a culturally pessimistic contribution to current communications and globalisation traps. What is most arresting in Timau, as in the case of Dabernig's Wisla is the art of the moment. Normally the deeply private loneliness of the opening car journey would be at the end of a great melodrama (well, OK it could also be a small melodrama).

This is the story of an artist - a creative sculptor of idols, that puts life and colour into clusters of mud and clay.

The narrative revolves around how a creation of the sculptor- an idol of Ma Durga punishes him (by rendering him indisposed and idle), when he crosses all limits of abuse and shows him a life of yearning. The film concludes with a deep dawn of realisation - of how a single action- takes away from him his ability to be a prolific sculptor- that of clay and stone and that of his child's future. The film is embedded with contrasting symbolism, as aptly reflected in its title, most strongly that of the strength of a woman, of a mother, which is - representative in Ma Durga's rendition of 'Good over Evil'. The hunger for food, the hunger for physical fulfillment and the hunger for creativity are natural, necessary and common human instincts. However, an unbalanced, excessive and uncontrolled desire to fulfill one's hunger leads to dire consequences, which is the story of The short 'Living Idle'.

Acknowledging the scientific consensus on the issue, the debate will steer clear of the pointless "skeptics vs. alarmist" angle and focus on what we can do as individuals, a nation and a species to avert the impacts of climate change. Attenborough's film lays out seven components of a sane response to global warming - strategies and targets from the household to big industries and government. But each one has implications, and many - like a growing reliance on nuclear power - are highly contentious. Our goal is to debate these strategies in a positive and constructive spirit: combating the paralysis of swirling fears with concrete ideas for informed action." But in retrospective, in 2006, Attenborough did not have enough scientific evidence to be more blunt. So, the author of this review simply summarizes the situation of year 2011 as following: Pollution, eating species into extinction and massacre of environment happens on global scale: sacred and very needed by life on Earth trees are being massacred by human predator. Gold mining, illegal tree cutting, illegal ranching in Amazon already destroyed a lot of sacred trees. Films: "AMAZON with Bruce Perry", "The End of the Line (2009)". Most vicious predator (human) must learn to stop destroying its own environment. Most vicious predator must stop unbounded (exponential) reproduction: it leaves no space for healthy environment for most vicious predator and leaves no space for animals. CONSUMPTION is not "cool" anymore. Hint: coexistence of human and environment (nature and animals).

The 9 Stars were seated in a 3 X 3 tier (a la tick-tack-toe board); they were joined by 2 contestants--1 a returning champion (one competing as the "X" for Men & the other "O" for Women).

53503 ::: Aretz Hadasha (1994) ::: drama ::: A brother and sister arrive alone in the new country of Israel after World War II where they hope to find their lost mother. The complexities of life with colorful characters in the refugee transit camp and nearby kibbutz makes it hard to reconcile their real lives with their deeper dream of still finding the Newland. We found this movie lacking any compassion. The characters in it seem to just be wondering around without any purpose - the plot is simply shallow and lacked focus. The two main characters the brother and sister who arrived from Poland are portrayed as very close to each other. However the brother, who is older, ditches his sister for a tempting offer to join the Kibbutz. He returns back to her when the sister puts things back in perspective about their past together. Really? I find it hard to believe that two sibling who are close and survived the Holocaust would so easily part after what they have been through. Sure, he did attempt once to bring his sister on board but when that failed she literally became none existant to him. The movie ends with the brother and sister seeking another new land after they are fed up with their mistreatment. I really liked the flying bear touch who takes them to a new destination (NOT) - Back to Europe perhaps? Most men in this movie are portrayed as irresponsible selfish cheaters. This movie is without doubt biased.

53514 ::: To spiti tou Kain (2000) ::: documentary ::: The film's subject is murder; its heroes are seven ordinary men and women who committed such an act. The House of Cain plunges into the people's images, memories, nightmares and reality, as well as their attempts to escape from the borderline situation in which they live. In his own way, each one of the characters -six prison inmates, their guard and one former prisoner- encircle the irrevocable act, which embodies the absurd and crushes their existence. The prison, the morgue, the museum of criminal exhibits, the courts, the police, the ruins of an old penal colony, prison cells yet to be built, the streets in the city - all constitute the mournful route of the perpetrator, the mournful route of the main characters of this film, but also of the still unknown people, who may, at any given time, equally unexpectedly, find themselves in the same position. The events, the intimate details are absent. The House of Cain is a journey in human decline and the guilt that each person experiences in the way and to the degree that he can. The film is a silent lament, humble and awkward for a lost innocence. Whether that can be regained is open to question. It is an exploration of man's limits but also of the boundaries of the documentary genre using the acrobatics of the characters and the acrobatics of style. It is the reality of the soul and the senses as the only cinematic reality and record.

The other character, husband Willie, is almost never seen. Dublin stage and screen veteran Rosaleen Linehan, in the lead, is exceptional as the trapped woman clinging to the empty, arbitrary routines and rituals of life, ever hopeful that 'this is going to be a happy day.'

He ran unsuccessfully for governor of Georgia on a segregationist ticket in the 50s.

53692 ::: "The Newlywed Game" (1977) ::: game-show ::: The basic premise of the perennial game show "The Newlywed Game" has been copied and imitated many times, but this original show proved to be the one fans loved (or hated) the most. The rules to this 1970s five-day-a-week syndicated series were identical to those in the classic ABC series. Four couples, each married less than two years, answered a series of questions designed to expose how well the spouses knew (or didn't know) each other. The husbands were first to answer the questions while their wives were secluded offstage; many times, the answers involved "whoopie" (a euphemism for "sex"). Matching answers were worth 5 points each, while not matching usually led to high-pitched arguments much to the delight of Eubanks and the audience. The process was repeated with the wives answering a series of questions and the husbands taken backstage, correct answers were worth 10 points. A final bonus question (usually general, answered by the wives) was worth 25 points. The couple with the highest point total at the end of the game won a bonus prize "chosen especially for" them usually a trip, furniture or mode of transportation (other than a car or truck). Reruns of "The Newlywed Game" remains among the highest-rated shows on the Game Show Network. An updated version of the long-running game show, still with veteran host Bob Eubanks. Newlywed husbands and wives would take turns answering (often risque) questions while their spouses were backstage. After answering, the spouses would return and be asked the same questions, earning points if their answers matched their spouse's. The couple that finished with the most points would win a prize.

53703 ::: Young and Willing (1943) ::: comedy ::: For those, if any, who have wondered why so many Paramount contractees appeared in United Artists' films during the war years, this is another one of the Paramount productions that was sold to United Artists in the early-40's when U.A. was having trouble meeting their exhibitor contracts because of lack of product, mainly due to their loss of production in England.

53704 ::: Lick an Apple Like a Pussy: The Movie Stanislawski Never Made (2002) ::: drama ::: As you can see from the title, this underground movie (but "how underground can you be" as the main protagonist interestingly remarks) is neither a sex/erotic/porn movie, nor an intellectual Stanislawskian exercise of style: it's both. Or, to phrase it more precisely, a intellectual-existential wank about sex and life - or rather failure in life. An emotionally broken Polish director - the excellent Malga Kubiak, herself an actor-director of sexually graphic movies in real life - gathers a bunch of German wannabe actors in a remote bungalow deep in the forest. The obsessive director, an increasingly tyrannical psycho-maniac, wants total commitment from her actors to her movie, i.e., wants them to have real sex before the camera. She chose German actors because she thought Germans didn't have any problem with nudity. But the cast rebels. They don't mind playing sex, but don't want to do it for real on camera. The director - whose suggestive forlorn beauty is that of a retired porn star - doggedly sticks to her idea, inflexible in her demands. The whole experience turns into a sheer disaster for everyone. A big joke, with hilarious scenes of failed sex that conveys a sense of absurdity close to Gogolian despair.

53739 ::: Omikuji (2010) ::: short ::: An ironic but not unrelated sensibility reigns over the ritual in "Omikuji". Randomly drawn, they contain predictions ranging from "great good luck" to "great bad luck". So the stills from this film - can be pulled randomly in tremendously stretched apparition of happiness and disaster. By tying the omikuji around a tree's branch, good fortune will come true or bad fortune can be averted. By taking this film apart, in slices, it can be perceived as a holy love song, or as a silent preamble of unknown. The luscious colors, bright whites, deep pink skin and emerald greenery feel warm and odd at the same time, familiar and savage. Floating along with the sacred game, viewers are led by an intuitive sense that all this theater and life would mix well, though could both be silly, playful, spooky, and, at times, sinister. "Omikuji" begins with an innocent mass-produced object meant to shield and heighten the beauty of the ceremony. All overlooked particles of the game are stitched here together and cast attention upon making diverse new forms of art that crossed boundaries, both culturally and in terms of film-making invasion. Theatrical essence of the ceremony is iconic and obvious, "presentness is grace". (Michael Fried's "Art and Objecthood"). The film has a bright and dark side to its imagery and music, it feels like devotional scenes of a vaguely secret sect, and clues to the exact meanings of the rituals are hard to find. It acknowledges the offset of winter and the dark, cold, depressing, rainy months that follow.

53919 ::: The BQE (2009) ::: musical ::: Sufjan Stevens is proud to present The BQE, a cinematic suite inspired by the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway and the Hula-Hoop. Commissioned by Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM), The BQE was originally performed in the Howard Gilman Opera House in celebration of the 25th anniversary Next Wave Festival in October of 2007. The Brooklyn-Queens Expressway is an incidental 12.7 miles of urban roadway built over the course of several decades (1939-1964), spear-headed by the master architect Robert Moses to accommodate for the increase of commercial and commuter traffic in New York City's outer boroughs. The roadway was a painstaking piecemeal project, poorly planned, badly built, and relentlessly encumbered by the obvious obstacles of the era: red tape, neighborhood protests, World War II, and a congested borough whose sequestering layout proved ill-fitting for the automobile. The resulting expressway-a pockmarked, serpentine, congested BQE-has become one of Brooklyn's most notable icons of urban blight. And, for Sufjan Stevens, an object of unmitigated inspiration. The official album release of The BQE follows nearly two years after its original performance at BAM, providing the songwriter (and his various collaborators) ample time to wrestle out all the thematic incarnations of the project, and to attempt an appropriation of Wagner's Gesamtkunstwerk ("total work"). The resulting album might be best described as a grand creative franchise-incorporating movie, symphony, comic book, dissertation, photography, graphic design, and a 3-D ViewmasterŽ reel-in which a songwriter's interrogation of one of New York's ugliest landmarks expands athletically to forums and formulas outside of the song itself. In fact, the BQE is everything but a song. First and foremost, The BQE is a self-made home-movie documentation, exhibiting how all the architectural colors of Brooklyn and Queens are fabulously intersected by this ramshackle artery of highway traffic. Shot renegade style on do-it-yourself film cameras, the animated footage of grid-lock crisscrossing the brick and mortar of Brooklyn flickers and cascades Koyaanisqatsi-style on three simultaneous screens. The 16mm cinematography (heroically shot by Reuben Kleiner on a 1960s Bolex) utilizes time-lapse photography, in-camera editing, slow motion, and post-production mirror effects to transform urban blight into a splendor of graphic compositions. The BQE is also accompanied by an idiosyncratic musical soundtrack (composed by Stevens for band and chamber orchestra), evoking a romanticized musical choreography of perpetual motion vs. gridlock. Borrowing variously from Gershwin, Terry Riley, Charles Ives, and Autechre (to name a few), the music showcases skittish woodwinds wrestling out impressionist articulation (in 7/8) and imperial brass anthems evoking various incarnations of the music of the automobile. Further Information: The BQE is available as a double-disc format (CD/DVD), which includes the original 16mm/8mm film (in widescreen "triptych" display), the original motion picture soundtrack, a 40-page booklet (with extensive liner notes and photographs), and the stereoscopic image reel
