Music fans know Maynard James Keenan as the frontman of such bands as Tool, A Perfect Circle, and Puscifer, but in this documentary filmmakers Christopher Pomerenke and Ryan Page offer a closer look at one of the prolific rocker's more unexpected hobbies -- winemaking. Along with his business partner Eric Glomski, Keenan has managed to transform an arid stretch of Arizona desert into a lush vineyard that yields some particularly tasty grapes. Through unguarded conversations with Keenan and Glomski, Pomerenke and Page discover just what got the pair interested in winemaking, and why they chose such a hostile natural environment to serve as the site of their winery. close

The figure of Tamerlane (Timur), for all its significance for history in general and Central Asia in particular, is little known to those living today, for whom he is primarily a brilliant commander.
The first of the eastern rulers, he created an army, which was clearly divided into military branches. His talent allowed him to create an empire larger than the state of Alexander the Great.
As for Timur’s other talent, a great creator and transformer, this is much less talked about, and the film Tamerlane. The Steppe Architect fills this gap in the story of the outstanding Mongol.
The text from the author reads Sergei Chonishvili. close

This remarkable trove of color footage, assembled from far-flung private and state collections, presents Hitler's Europe as never seen before. Amateur film enthusiasts - soldiers, tourists, Hitler's own pilot, even Hitler's mistress, Eva Braun - began experimenting with color film in the late 1930s, their camera eye recording the Third Reich from every angle. Some of this film was only recently uncovered in former Soviet-bloc archives, hidden for almost 60 years; all of it, thanks to digital technology, has been newly transferred to video with surprising clarity. (This documentary was produced with two different narratives, both an English and German language version.) close

Experimental portions of the film, projected in reverse, feature the un-slaughtering of a bull and the un-baking of bread. close

Since the fall of the Iron Curtain an estimated four million children have found themselves living on the streets in the former countries of the Soviet Union. In the streets of Moscow alone there are over 30,000 surviving in this manner at the present time. The makers of the documentary film concentrated on a community of homeless children living hand to mouth in the Moscow train station Leningradsky. Eight-year-old Sasha, eleven-year-old Kristina, thirteen-year-old Misha and ten-year-old Andrej all dream of living in a communal home. They spend winter nights trying to stay warm by huddling together on hot water pipes and most of their days are spent begging. Andrej has found himself here because of disagreements with his family. Kristina was driven into this way of life by the hatred of her stepmother and twelve-year-old Roma by the regular beatings he received from his constantly drunk father. "When it is worst, we try to make money for food by prostitution," admits ... close

Rare viewers pay attention to how the costumes look in the film. Nevertheless, the film costume industry is one of the most complex, painstaking and sometimes expensive areas of film production. The best costumes are awarded prizes, collectors chase for some outfits, and unique dresses become real exhibits of historical museums. Although the importance of the artist’s work on costumes is comparable to the work of directors and operators, they often remain in the shadows. Fashion historian Alexander Vasiliev leads the viewer through the halls of the grandiose exhibition project of the Gorky Film Studio “Time and Things”, where an exceptional collection of rarities is collected from the dresses of the late XVII century to the fracas of the early XX century. Acquaints with iconic personalities of the industry, pioneers and guardians of technologies, explains the subtleties of working with the fact, color, material and preservation of originals.
