The 'Ga' of the title refers to the film maker's mother. The film gathers together this elderly lady's everyday actions to offer an abstract insight into her life. Margaret Tait described this film as follows: 'My mother seemed a good subject for a portrait, (she was there), and I thought it offered a chance to do a sort of 'abstract film', in the sense that it didn't have what you might call 'the grammar of film'. It's mostly discontinuous shots linked just by subject, in one case by colour, only rarely by movement'. close

Journalizing his final year before dying of cancer in May 1996, this documentary takes a sentimental walk down memory-lane to honor a man whose place in history is surely guaranteed. Probably best known for his oft-quoted (and misunderstood) 1960s phrase wherein Dr.Leary encouraged everyone to "turn on, tune in and drop out", the filmmakers sought to capture the real man behind the legend; vox-pops with friends, colleges and family pepper the storyline that made-up the multi-faceted man who was author, psychologist, teacher, guru, fugitive-from-justice and dignified humorist. We see him in his experimental 1960s, the hippie 70s, his thoughtful 80s and the futuristic 90s. Overall a very satisfying documentary about this extraordinary man. Ever the Professor, we see his musings on life & death and, after succumbing to the inevitable, we witness the (somewhat macabre) after-death cryogenic storage of his severed head for his optimistic, future generations to do with what they may. close

For his military successes in North Africa, he was nicknamed the “Desert Fox.” He also played on the battlefields of France and Italy. His achievements were highly appreciated Hitler. Field Marshal Erwin Rommel is considered one of the best military commanders of the Wehrmacht. However, his relationship with the Fuhrer was rather strained. He even suspected that the general was involved in the 1944 plot. What caused Rommel's death? Did he kill himself or was he killed? What happened to Rommel? This question is still one of the many secrets of the Second World War.
Film "Secrets of the Second World War". Secrets of World War II: What Really Happened to Rommel? is part of the World War II project, which opens the veil of many secrets of Nazi Germany. At the disposal of the creators of the series - 300,000 hours of film materials from the archives of the Second World War, many of which today can rightly be called sensational. close
