The feature-length documentary The Reflektor Tapes is the story of Canadian indie rock band Arcade Fire. Musicians tell music lovers in detail about the work on the last studio album Reflektor and allow you to look into the Holy of Holies. The project was directed by Kalil Joseph, who managed to prove himself well in working with Kendrick Lamar and American DJ Stephen Ellison (Flying Lotus). The director without false modesty reports that his tape is a work of art that unites the musical and personal history of the characters. The project is based on video recordings from concerts, travel, exclusive interviews and footage from the personal archives of the performers.
The band was founded by spouses Win Butler and Regina Shassan in 2003. Arcade Fire originally promoted contemporary art, giving preference to happy-going concerts. The musicians have 4 incredibly successful and popular albums. The debut album took 8th place in the ranking of “100 best Canadian albums”, and the last double disc, released in 2013, blew the world charts. In the same year, the band produced the soundtrack for Spike Jones' fantasy melodrama "She".
The pair were inspired by the culture and traditions of Haitians. The lovers spent a wonderful holiday in the picturesque places where Regina's parents were born. Haitian music and Jamaican rhythms had a significant influence on them. Open to new styles, the singer and multi-instrumentalist began to experiment with sounds, adding fresh material to the previous developments. The lyrics to the songs were mostly written by Butler, inspired by his favorite film Black Orpheus.
Work on the LP began in 2011. After 12 months, ex-LCD Soundsystem frontman James Murphy offered his help as a producer. When it came time to reap the benefits of the triumph, the celebrities decided to talk in detail about the process of making the album.
In the film The Reflektor Tapes, the team shows fans videos made during a trip to Jamaica and from a vacation in Tahiti, vivid episodes from impromptu performances, talks about a trip to Montreal and recalls stunning concerts in Los Angeles and London. In an interview, the stars admitted that they were incredibly lucky to work with a talented director, and his works are a real film work that has no analogues. close

"The Hart of London" is an endlessly layered tour de force. It explores life and death, the sense of place and personal displacement, and the intricate aesthetics of representation. It is a personal and spiritual film, marked inevitably by Chambers’s knowledge that he had leukemia. The late American avant-garde filmmaker Stan Brakhage said of Hart, "If I named the five greatest films [ever made], this has got to be one of them." Even this high praise falls short of hyperbole. The Hart of London is at the centre of Chambers’s extraordinary achievement. close

Honing his craft as an indie filmmaker in Germany in the early 90s, Uwe Boll never could have imagined the life that lay before him. From working with Oscar-winning actors and making films with US$60million budgets to having actors publicly disparage him and online petitions demanding he stop making films, Boll continued to work; he has a filmography of 32 features, a career that has led to his new life as a successful high-end restauranteur. Already a cult legend, he will be remembered forever in the film world; for some, as a modern-day Ed Wood, who made films so bad, they're good, while for others, a prolific filmmaker who came from a small town in Germany and never compromised his integrity while forging his own unique Hollywood trajectory. close

Since the late 18th century American legal decision that the business corporation organizational model is legally a person, it has become a dominant economic, political and social force around the globe. This film takes an in-depth psychological examination of the organization model through various case studies. What the study illustrates is that in the its behaviour, this type of "person" typically acts like a dangerously destructive psychopath without conscience. Furthermore, we see the profound threat this psychopath has for our world and our future, but also how the people with courage, intelligence and determination can do to stop it. close

Emerging from the Detroit music scene of the 1970s in a flurry of long hair and sequins, Alice Cooper restored hard rock with a sense of showmanship, while simultaneously striking fear into the hearts of Middle America with the chicken-slaughtering, dead-baby-eating theatrics that would cement his identity as a glam metal icon.
