A homage to the memory of events that took place on September 11, 2001 in New York. Eleven Directors from around the world put together a series of shorts each one 11 minutes, nine seconds and one frame in length and all based around the consequences of that fateful day. 11'09"01 is a thought provoking and often moving experience that covers many cultures and provides a refreshingly honest and diverse breadth of opinions. find out more...

In the build-up to the 1972 US elections, Washington Post reporter Bob Woodward investigated what seemed to be a minor break-in at the Democratic Party headquarters, the editor of the Post was prepared to run with the story and assigned Woodward and Carl Bernstein to it. Their painstaking research found the trail leading higher and higher in the Republican Party and, eventually, into the White House itself and led to the downfall of Nixon. An intelligent and exciting dramatic reconstruction.< find out more...

Al Gore finds life after the politically crushing embarrassment that was his tenure as vice president and, frankly, it's unlikely he will experience another point as high as his achievement in this profound, engaging and, mercifully, clear documentary on the consequences of our complacent greed. That ‘An Inconvenient Truth' provides little in the way of true revelations pertaining to the earth's (humanity's) looming ecological demise, and ignores some of the more profound problems of trapped car find out more...

A number of unrelated people from different social and ethnic backgrounds are observed in their lives leading up to, and their reactions in the aftermath of, a tragedy, in this case the assassination of Robert Kennedy. Directed by Emilio Estevez with an awesome cast at his disposal, Bobby is a fascinating and intelligent observation of the impact events in history have on the common people who both create it and are influenced by it.

John Travolta stars in this adaptation of Joe Klein's 1990 novel based on President Clinton's somewhat dubious journey to the White House. Bill and Hil are thinly disguised as Jack and Susan Stanton, with Emma Thompson as the wannabe First Lady who's intellectually superior to her husband, but prepared to do whatever it takes to get to the top. Shown through the eyes of a young, black, earnest but naive congressional aide (Adrian Lester), Travolta positively oozes smarm as the dodgy Democrat who find out more...

A highly personalised documentary account of one filmmaker's frustrated attempts to interview the Chairman of General Motors when he closed down 35,000 jobs in his hometown. Instead he focuses on the drastic and wry effects on the town. The result is incisive, witty, and (surprisingly) very, very funny. A Must! find out more...

After the 11th September 2001 the War Against Terror is preparing to move on to Iraq. The UN have sent in the weapons inspectors to find if Saddam has indeed Weapons of Mass Destruction and the political machines in both the UK and US are working to present the strongest possible case for war in the face of (in the UK) very vocal opposition from the public. With the dossiers released and the threat established the "need for war" is set and, on the 19th March 2003, th find out more...

Long the bane of American filmmakers the Motion Picture Association of America, the body that rates film content, is the target of this spot-on investigative documentary. The big questions raised are: 1) WHO are the anonymous 'raters', the so-called arbitors of American morality, and 2) why is there a distinct difference between how studio films are censored and how indie flicks are? Through interviews with indie directors such as John Waters, Kimberly Pierce, Atom Egoyan and Kevin Smith, we get find out more...

General Motors EV-1 electric car was a revelation, a non-fossil fuel form of transport that offered a genuine alternative to the gasoline guzzlers that choke America's roads. So why were they all sent to the knackers' yard? 'Who Killed The Electric Car?' is a fascinating, sad and scarily predictable tale of the oil industry's determination to keep profits up regardless of the short and long term global consequences. find out more...
