The French are very confident in their own superiority, and they do not care what other peoples think of them, but to representatives of other countries they seem too contradictory and unstable. This is because brought up mainly on peasant psychology, they are always focused primarily on their own interests. French women, for example, are very independent and welcome feminism, but in the name of their famous femininity, they will never join this movement.
Five separate shorts from five directors (including Jean-Luc Godard) in the documentary "The French through the Eyes..." are the most interesting of the French people's opinions about themselves. close

About 6,000 years ago, a group of demons was imprisoned in a special magical tomb in the dungeon by a powerful magician - the Sorcerer of the Sand. These demons threatened to destroy the human race, for they themselves lived only for conquest and destruction. These days, two grave robbers accidentally opened the tomb, freeing the demons. The demons (Diabolico, Loki, Vipra, Jinkser, and little Impus), chief among whom was Diabolico, decided to return to their old palace, but found that in its place now lies the large seaside town of Mariner Bay. They did not like it and decided to destroy an unexpected obstacle. They themselves are still located in another dimension in the Skull Cave.
When the defense organization Lightspeed, led by Captain Mitchell, learned of the resurrection of the demons, it set in motion its critical plan to assemble five carefully selected men to equip them with the super-technology of the Rangers, thus creating a new squad of fighters against evil. The plan was immediately implemented. Red Ranger became firefighter Carter Grayson, Blue Ranger - swimmer Chad Lee, Green Morph dressed pilot Joel Henderson, climber Kelsey Winslow got Yellow Morph, and the daughter of captain Mitchell Dana turned into Pink Ranger. General direction was to be exercised by Captain Mitchell. The unit received the name Rescue, and quickly repulsed the first attack of the demonic soldiers - the Battles, and destroyed the very first monster Diabolico. close
