Shot in documentary style from the perspective of an almost alien observer, the film is an exploration of the ravaged oil fields of post-Gulf War Kuwait. An effective companion to his earlier film Fata Morgana, Herzog again perceives the desert as a landscape with its own voice, as he glides over seas of oil, geyser-like infernos, monstrous smoke plumes and ashen roadways. With musical accompaniment by Wagner, Prokofiev and Pärt to boot, he observes the soot-covered creatures allured by the blaze. close

In 1966, Dieter Dengler was shot down over Laos, captured, and, down to 85 pounds, escaped. Barefoot, surviving monsoons, leeches, and machete-wielding villagers, he was rescued. Now, near 60, living on Mt. Tamalpais, Dengler tells his story: a German lad surviving Allied bombings in World War II, postwar poverty, apprenticed to a smith, beaten regularly. At 18, he emigrates and peels potatoes in the U.S. Air Force. He leaves for California and college, then enlistment in the Navy to learn to fly. A quiet man of sorrows tells his story: war, capture, harrowing conditions, escape, and miraculous rescue. Where did he find the strength; how does he now live with his memories? close

Documentary Jean-Michel Carre “Kursk: Submarine in Muddy Water” is dedicated to the sensational crash of a Russian submarine. The film, banned in several countries around the world, presents the version that the tragically sunken Kursk was sunk by an American torpedo.
The reason for this “foresight” was a message on the Internet resource of the newspaper “Pravda”, which appeared 10 days after the sinking of the submarine and reported that this incident almost provoked the beginning of the Third World War. Within hours, during which several confidential phone conversations between Putin and Clinton took place, the message disappeared. close
