There are still very poor people, to be sure, but the new poverty has more to do with inequality... close

Nick Broomfield and a documentary crew visit Pandora's Box, an up-scale house of bondage on Manhattan's Fifth Avenue, where clients pay $175 an hour to be subservient to mistresses. Mistresses talk about their craft; a few clients, usually masked, are interviewed as well. Then, the camera watches sessions organized around fetishes: rubber, wrestling, corporal punishment, masochism, and infantilism. Mistress Raven, the owner of Pandora's Box, explains that pain need not be part of the subservient experience: it is, at its root, a transfer of power. After their session has ended, clients talk about how drained, relaxed, relieved, and at peace they are. close

Paula Biren, Ruth Elias, Ada Lichtman, Hanna Marton: Four Jewish women, witnesses and survivors of the most insane and pitiless barbarism, and who, for that reason alone, but for many others also, deserve to be inscribed forever into the memory of humankind. What they have in common, beside the specific horrors to which each of them were subjected, is a searingly sharp, almost-physical intelligence, which rejects all pretence or faulty reasoning. In a word, idealism. close

They belong to the armed wing of the PKK, the Kurdistan Workers' Party, which is also an active guerrilla movement. The mission of these female fighters? Defend Kurdish territory in Iraq and Syria, and defeat ISIS (the armed militants of the so-called Islamic State group), all while embodying a revolutionary ideal advocating female empowerment. As filmmaker Zaynê Akyol follows their highly regimented lives, seasoned fighters like Rojen and Sozdar openly share with us their most intimate thoughts and dreams. Even as fighting against ISIS intensifies in the Middle East, these women bravely continue their battle against barbarism. Offering a window into this largely unknown world, Gulîstan, Land of Roses exposes the hidden face of this highly mediatized war: the female, feminist face of a revolutionary group united by a common vision of freedom. close

In 1999 a fibre-glas wire was installed from Thailand to Vietnam straight trough Cambodia. Rithy Panh shows us the work done in Cambodia to connect Khmer-society to "modern world". Farmers, soldiers and children work for a living there and unearthen skulls and bones -their remains from PolPot-regime you can see. The fear in their mind is portrayed by Rithy Panh in this documentary. As the other work done by Rithy Panh this deals with his people. I like it very much! The movie was awarded 1999 at "Visions du Réel" in Nyon (Switzerland) and at "Cinéma du Réel" in Paris. close

Documentary film about the life of things: in some cases, before its existence (the sale of homes not built), in others about to be discarded (the destiny of the utensils from a family home). But inmaterial things are as well interesting, as the dreams and symbols, which are also on the market and that, sometimes, are nothing more than a form of self-affirmation: everything is on the market, everything can change hands. close

Channel One experiment. This is neither a documentary nor a feature film. This is an investigation and a provocation at the same time. In some ways, this is a reconstruction, but built on real facts, in some – a documentary shocking in its frankness. The theme of the film is an attempt to figure out who and what controls the world around us. What kind of secret societies are behind the accepted screen – elected politicians and their ideas, which are called in different ways – from fascism to neoconservatism. What secret society has existed since the 19th century and provides America with presidents and Wall Street with financial hierarchs? Why is it that so little is known that in the last election, both candidates from different parties, Bush and Carrie, were members of the party?
At the heart of the picture are absolutely real facts, but, for unclear reasons, extremely little known. In particular, the Bush family in the 30s and 40s cooperated with
Nazi financial companies, but the Congressional investigation was dropped thanks to the intervention of Alan Dulles, the future CIA chief. The grandfather of former President Bush, Prescott, in 1918, by his own admission, looted the grave of the Apache Indian leader Geronimo the Terrible and stole from there his Skull, which became a symbol of a secret society with the strange name Skull and Bones existing at Yale University. close

The identity of the great Russian writer and playwright Anton Chekhov for many of our contemporaries remains a mystery. To several generations of readers, he appeared as a dry, sick old man in a pinsne, opening the ulcers of bourgeois society. Chekhov was handsome, two meters tall, with pleasure indulged in secular pleasures! Anton Pavlovich left his life at the age of 44, leaving his descendants brilliant plays, stories and novels. And letters, in which he openly talked about his relationship with women, gave very unpleasant characteristics to many famous contemporaries. The audience will see a lively, unretouched Chekhov, far from the image from school textbooks! close
