The Trinity Assembly of God Church in Texas has created it's own alternative to the haunted house of dishevelled fair grounds. ‘The Hell House', a comparatively lavish production of horrors, but crucially, ones here on earth; abortions, AIDS, drugs, rape. Everything gets the faithful's naïve but graphic interpretation. Ratliff's documentary is an admirably unbiased look at an agonisingly myopic and intolerant world view, but his skill as an observer leaves you almost as sympathetic for the prota find out more...

Into Great Silence is the first film about life inside The Grande Chartreuse, the Alpine mother house of the legendary Carthusian Order. This next to silent film, no music, except the chants in the monastery, no interviews, no commentaries, is an austere meditation on a very pure form of monastic life. The seasons come and go as do the rituals of the day and we are transported into the lives of the monks. An often hypnotic observation of awareness, absolute presence, and the life of men who devo find out more...

Jack Johnson's first break into the public music arena was when his composition 'Rodeo Clowns' was chosen to be G-ILove and Special Sauce's first single off their 1999 album 'Philadelphonic'. He had long been a huge figure in the surfing world, having been born and raised in Hawaii. He fast became a renowned surfer and scored a pro contract with Quiksilver before he had left high school. His implicit creativity led him to study and graduate with a degree in film at Santa Barbara. This then led t find out more...

Jesus Camp is both about the tactics of the Evangelical Christian right and how impressionable young minds can be. We follow Levi, Rachel, Tory and other children in a first-ever look at a Christian fundmentalist summer camp, in North Dakota, an intense training ground that recruits underage kids to become an active part of America's political future. There's no dialectics here, no promotion of free thought, and tots as young as six are brainwashed to become dedicated soldiers in God's army and find out more...

Woven through a riveting tribute is a career-spanning interview with the man himself. Sprinkled with his own artwork and personal photos, Cohen speaks of his stately writing process; "savage criticisms" exchanged with fellow Montreal poets; the scene at the Chelsea Hotel; tea and oranges with the real Suzanne; his retreat to Mt Baldy and climaxing with Leonard playing with U2. find out more...

Self-confessed in-it-for-life metaller Sam Dunn is narrator and guide in this erudite documentary about that most misunderstood and derided of musical genres, heavy metal. Dunn is an anthropologist and, as such, intends to challenge outsiders' perceptions about the clichés of satanism, spots and sexual confusion with an investigation of the realities inside the metal scene and its many sub-genres. Along the way he speaks to metallers of note Tony Iommi (Black Sabbath), Bruce Dickinson (Iron Maid find out more...

US comedian Bill Maher travels the world, with a metaphoric blunderbuss, to mock religious zealots by allowing them to spout quixotically outlandish pieces of madness/religion and to point out some of the logical absurdities in their beliefs. Some of the victims are purely nuts, but most represent the views of mainstream sects, only a Vatican priest really saves the day for God with a humourous scepticism about the whole nature of fundamentalism. The destinations include Jerusalem, the Vatican, find out more...

Searching for the Wrong-Eyed Jesus is a thought-provoking road trip through the American South - a world of churches, prisons, coalmines, truck-stops, juke joints, swamps and mountains. Along the way we encounter various musicians, including: The Handsome Family, Johnny Dowd, 16 Horsepower and David Johansen, old time banjo player Lee Sexton, Rockabilly and Mountain Gospel churches, and novelist Harry Crews. All tell grisly stories down a dirt track. The film is a collage of stories and testimon find out more...

A little known passage of British history - the fate of the black men who volunteered for the King's Men in the American War of Independence. At least the Empire didn't abandon them to the slaver George Washington and his thugs, instead dumping them on the desolate Novia Scotia coastline. But where there's life there's hope and enter the radical Thomas Clarkson's brother, a young naval officer named John, who, energised by their living conditions, collected the remnants and shipped them to Freet find out more...
