- DirectorOlli BarbéStarsJacques PerrinThis documentary introduces the viewer of "Winged Migration" to the people behind what its makers call "the tale," a combination of fiction and truth. The movie was storyboarded and the actors (birds) hand raised from eggs to imprint on the filmmakers and their machines (boats, a French naval ship, paragliders, balloons, ultralights, motorcycles, trucks, etc.). At first, after imprinting on the people, the birds were trained to follow, run, and then fly beside the ultralights and other vehicles as they motored along the ground. Then they flew with the ultralights and gliders. Finally, they were transported to various places along migratory paths by plane--cranes, swans, ducks, geese, pelicans, and so on--to fly or waddle or wade on scene and on cue ("Allez, allez!"). The filmmakers also flew without their birds to spots where the birds they did not or could not tame arrived or nested or left at certain times of the year. Filming was held up for hours, days, or months when the birds were sick, the weather did not cooperate, the birds flew away and eluded their handlers, or the ultralights crashed (9 times during the filming of "Winged Migration"). Fortunately, no humans were seriously harmed during the making of either film (although some clearly suffered bird bites).Le Peuple migrateur, Jacques Perrin, 2003

- DirectorJean-François BrientA mesmerizing documentary about the origins and causes of the widespread unbalances of modern West societies. The unchallenged victory of the free market utopia turned into an all-engulfing nightmare, remodeling ways of life and shaping them into what looks more and more as a frightening view of a dystopian narrative.De la servitude moderne est aussi un livre écrit par Jean-François Brient

par Victor León Fuentes - DirectorMike RamsdellStarsJustin BarrettKerry NobleTerrence DeaconReveals the shared narratives found in individual and collective ideologies of hate, and how we as a species can overcome them. For six years the filmmaker worked with unprecedented access to some of the most venomous ideologies and violent conflicts of our time including the white supremacist movement, Christian Fundamentalism as an anti-gay platform, Muslim extremism, the Palestinian Intifada, Israeli settlers and soldiers, and US Forces in Iraq. By juxtaposing this verite footage with interviews from leading sociological, psychological, and neurological experts, and interspersing stories of redemption told by former "combatants", the film weaves a tapestry that reveals both the emotional and biological mechanisms which make all of us susceptible to acts and ideologies of hate, and demonstrates how these very same traits make us equally capable of overcoming them.
