Act of GOD - TRAILER Add Favorites   Is being hit by lightning a random natural occurrence or a predestined event? Accidents, chance, fate and the elusive quest to make sense out of tragedy underpin director Jennifer Baichwal?? (Manufactured Landscapes) captivating new work, an elegant cinematic meditation on the metaphysical effects of being struck by lightning. To explore these profound questions, Baichwal sought out riveting personal stories from around the world??rom a former CIA assassin and a French storm chaser, to writer Paul Auster and improvisational musician Fred Frith. The philosophical anchor of the film, Auster was caught in a terrifying and deadly storm as a teenager, and it has deeply affected both his life and art: ??t opened up a whole realm of speculation that I??e continued to live with ever since.??In his doctor brother?? laboratory, Frith experiments with his guitar to demonstrate the ubiquity of electricity in our bodies and the universe. Visually dazzling and aurally seductive, Act of God singularly captures the harsh beauty of the skies and the lives of those who have been forever touched by their fury.

When Clouds Clear Trailer Add Favorites   When Clouds Clear is a feature-length documentary that delves into one remote community’s radical resistance to a proposed copper mine that would level and destroy their way of life forever. Set in the isolated cloud forests of the northern Andes Mountains, the film is narrated by the founders and children of Junín who depict how the village’s daily life has been affected by the rich ore deposits that were discovered beneath their land. As two invading mining companies become increasingly brazen in their attempts to infiltrate and control the area, the community must coalesce into a united resistance in order to survive. Still, some citizens side with the wealth that the companies promise, causing irreparable divisions, pitting friend against friend and father against son. Suddenly these once-peaceful farmers find themselves thrust into a dangerous world of corruption, splintered households, murder and arson as they fight tenaciously to protect their land and families. Directed and produced by emerging filmmakers Anne Slick and Danielle Bernstein, When Clouds Clear is a gripping and beautiful documentary shot on a patchwork of 16 mm, Super 8 and video that serves as a reminder to us all that wealth and poverty cannot always be measured in dollars and cents.

Driving to Zigzigland (Trailer) Add Favorites   Shot in Jerusalem, Ramallah and Los Angeles, DRIVING TO ZIGZIGLAND is a chronicle of a day in the life of a Bashar, a Palestinian cab driver in Los Angeles. Bashar holds tight onto the American Dream of becoming an actor in Hollywood but also longs to go back home to his legitimate theatrical acting job in Palestine, despite the Israeli occupation. In Los Angeles, a film audition typecasts Bashar to play an Al Qaeda terrorist role. When Bashar gets home, he realizes the utilities payments are due and he has twenty-four hours to make the money. For the remaining hours left until tomorrow, an unceasing flow of passengers ride in Bashar's taxi and give the Arab cabbie the run-around on issues that deal with suicide bombers, George Bush, Cat Stevens, the war in Iraq, Rai music, and world geography. In a post-9/11 American day, Bashar falls into the interest of the F.B.I. and suffers a massive blow from the bureaucracy of the former INS, now Homeland Security. All the while, Bashar's nostalgia of the Al Kasaba Theater in Ramallah, his place of work before being confined to his green American cab, poses the question of whether or not the American Dream is an idea really worth fighting for. Bashar's quest to make the money is won until he realizes he must choose between the Department of Homeland Security and his own family. Based on true stories.
