The filmmaker's journey began the day after the tragic events of September 11th, 2001. After receiving an email from a family friend who recounted how he had escaped World Trade Center Tower 1 moments before it imploded. After reading this email the filmmaker, Arthur Klein, was unable to stay at work. Devastated by the current events, he left his office in the middle of the day and in street cloths went to a yoga class. "It seemed like a good place to begin to regain a sense of peace, balance and wellbeing in a world that had seemingly begun to collapse." A year after beginning this every day yoga practice, Arthur was approached by two of his teachers and invited to capture what was unfolding in the yoga community. So for the last 6 years it has been his sadhana to explore, question and capture this emerging distinctly Western voice in yoga through a compelling collection of diverse American yogic stories. Y Yoga captures the philosophy, intention and spirit of Yoga from a charter ... close

East Germany's contribution to the 1957 Cannes Film Festival was the wartime melodrama Betrogen bis zum Juengsten Tag. Had the film been released in the U.S., the title would probably have translated to Duped Till the Last. The film condemns the Nazi mindset by concentrating on a particularly odious cover-up. When his son is involved in the accidental killing of a girl, a Gestapo general pulls strings to save the boy from prosecution. The general manages to pin the blame for the killing on a group of Russians, whereupon he gives the men under his command carte blanche to round up and execute as many innocent Russians as they wish. This act of brutality is contrasted with the pangs of guilt suffered by the son and his co-conspirators. close

One of the smallest countries in the world took part in one of the most successful rescue operations of World War II. At least twenty-five thousand people were saved from the Nazi death camps thanks to the actions of the Salvadoran Schindler Consul General of El Salvador in Geneva Jose Arturo Castellianos and his first secretary, Jewish businessman Gyorde Mandl. Castellanos first made Salvadoran passports for Györde and his family, changing the name Mandl to the authentic Mantello. Soon, the consulate began mass-producing fake citizenship papers for Jews from Nazi-occupied countries. The Salvadoran Jewish diaspora paper made it difficult for them to be sent to death camps, which meant hope for each of them, and for many, it came true. close
