Shoah (1985, Claude Lanzmann)

Category: Documentary
Description:
Plots: Claude Lanzmann directed this 9 1/2 hour documentary of the Holocaust without using a single frame of archive footage. He interviews survivors, witnesses, and ex-Nazis (whom he had to film secretly since though only agreed to be interviewed by audio). His style of interviewing by asking for the most minute details is effective at adding up these details to give a horrifying portrait of the events of Nazi genocide. He also shows, or rather lets some of his subjects themselves show, that the anti-Semitism that caused 6 million Jews to die in the Holocaust is still alive in well in many people that still live in Germany, Poland, and elsewhere. -Imdb.org German: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoah_(Film) French: http://www.cndp.fr/Tice/teledoc/dossiers/dossier_shoah.htm Spanish: http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoah_(pel%C3%ADcula) Polish: http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoah_(film) Video: DivX 5 576x432 25.00fps 1223KbpsI Audio: MPEG Audio Layer 3 48000Hz mono 80Kbps Language: french (german, polish, spanish) Subtitle languages (srt): english, deutsch, française, polski, español Running time: 9:21 Size: 5.64 gb Some credits: video source: bluegardinia english and french subtitles: funk_soul_brother spanisch subtitles: davy20

ARTE - Philip Short's - Mao, A Life

Category: Documentary
Description:
The video counterpart to Philip Short’s monumental book Mao: A Life, this four-part series guides viewers through the dynamic, innovative, and brutal accomplishments of the revolutionary Chinese leader. Short—a BBC and Times of London foreign correspondent assigned to China immediately after Mao Zedong’s death in 1976—serves as the series’ writer and narrator, providing the same rigor and panoramic scope that enriches his biography. But these programs go where no book can: into a trove of film and video materials kept secret for decades by Chinese authorities, and—through interviews granted exclusively to the filmmakers—into face-to-face meetings with the last surviving members of Mao’s inner circle. Viewers will encounter a spellbinding view of 20th-century Chinese history, as well as a glimpse of the country’s future. Members of Mao’s family, including his daughter-in-law and granddaughter, describe life in the Chairman’s home, while Sidney Rittenberg, an American scholar who worked alongside Mao, reflects on his harrowing experiences. Mao’s chief bodyguard, his doctor, and two former Politburo officials who took part in the Long March of 1934-35 share their wealth of knowledge and observations. Other staff members attached to Mao’s private office illuminate the Chairman’s cloistered but momentous twilight years. For students of Mao’s era, this series may well represent the most powerful learning tool available. Its four-part structure is organized around major phases of the leader’s life and career, with generous attention given to Mao’s influence on today’s China. Not available in French-speaking Canada. 4-part series, 60 minutes each.

Description:
Unreported World ~ Greece The Unwanted 2009 10 30 Ch 4 File Name .............: Unreported World S18E06 - Greece The Unwanted (30 October 2009) 232.69 MB / 24:13.920 / XviD As the French and British governments discuss how to deal with migrants camped outside Calais, Unreported World travels to the European Union's eastern border, to the illicit crossing points for hundreds of thousands of Afghans making their way to our shores. Reporter Jenny Kleeman and director Jacob Waite begin their journey on Turkey's north-west coast, just eight miles from Greece and the EU. It's 2.40am and the team come across a people smuggler and 25 migrants - men, women, children and even toddlers, all from Afghanistan. One of them tells Kleeman that he'd fled Afghanistan aged 13, after his father was taken away by the Taliban, and he'd worked in Iran for four years to earn $4000 to pay the smuggler. The fee covered a small inflatable dinghy, a little food and some basic life jackets. The team watches as all 25 get into the rickety craft and start paddling towards Greece. No one knows how many migrants try to make the eight-mile crossing, or how many drown. It's common for bodies to be found in the seas. ............edit The team moves on to the port of Patras, from where ferries head off to the rest of Europe. Around the port, migrants are living in camps along railway tracks as they try every day to stow themselves away in lorries. The walls of the port are topped with razor wire, but it's full of bits of cloth torn from the clothes of the migrants who've been trying desperately to get inside. It's clear that these desperate and determined people will stop at nothing for their chance to start a new life in Europe. http://www.channel4.com/programmes/unreported-w...s-2009/episode-16 http://www.thebox.bz/details.php?id=97284 Cap: geclipse Other shunster posts at:http://www.bt-chat.com/browse.php?category=11

Darwin's Nightmare (2004)

Category: Documentary
Description:
Darwin's Nightmare (2004) Darwin's Nightmare is a 2004 French-Belgian-Austrian documentary film written and directed by Hubert Sauper, dealing with the environmental and social effects of the fishing industry around Lake Victoria in Tanzania. It premiered at the 2004 Venice Film Festival, and was nominated for the 2006 Academy Award for Documentary Feature at the 78th Academy Awards. The larger scope of the story explores the gun trade to Africa that takes place under the covers -- Russian pilots fly guns into Africa, then fly fish back out to Europe. The hazards and consequences of this trade are explored, including the pan-African violence propagated by constant flow of weapons into the continent. If it is a "survival of the fittest" world, as Darwin concluded, then the capitalist interests that fund the gun runners are climbing the evolutionary ladder on the backs of the Africans in this stark Darwinian example. Much like the foreseeable extinction of the Lake Victoria perch, and death of Lake Victoria itself, the Africans are in grave jeopardy, even as they survive in the only ways they know how.

Terror! Robespierre and the French Revolution

Category: Documentary
Description:
The watchwords of the French Revolution were liberty, equality and fraternity. Maximilien Robespierre believed in them passionately. He was an idealist and a lover of humanity. But during the 365 days that Robespierre sat on the Committee of Public Safety, the French Republic descended into a bloodbath. ‘The Terror’ only came to end when Robespierre himself was devoured by the repressive machinery he’d created. This drama-documentary tells the story of the Terror and looks at how Robespierre’s revolutionary idealism so quickly became an excuse for tyranny, and why a lover of liberty was so keen to use the guillotine. Simon Schama and Slavoj Žižek are among the contributors. Broadcast 11. July, 2009 20:00 on BBC Two

Marat Sade (1967) by Peter Brook

Marat/Sade is a play of political theater. Excerpted from the IMDb database: As the title implies, the film is entirely a play-within-a-play where most cast members depict both a character from the French Revolution as well as an insane asylum inmate playing that character. While the film (like the later comedy-drama about deSade, "Quills") addresses censorship, it is primarily concerned with a debate between Marat as a ;; representative of revolutionary radical communism, and de Sade as a nihilistic existentialist frustrated with his own and society's violently cruel urges, as well as the futility of revolutionary action to improve mankind. [Preparer note: The IMDb listing also has a good discussion of performance of the play in high school and college productions.] http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0060668/board/nest/7307693 -- The torrent is given here for archive of the play and discussion of its importance. Other torrents on political theater include Signals Through The Flames: a documentary on the Living Theater of Julian Beck and Judith Malina, La Commune Paris 1871 by Peter Watkins and Winstanley by Kevin Brownlow. These torrents are archived and seeded all the time. Notes prepared September 13th, 2009

Category: Documentary
Description:
Muffins For Granny - Stories From Survivors Of The Canadian Residential School System (N. McLaren, 2007)-aNaRCHo (FILM IN ENGLISH, FRENCH SUBS INCLUDED) The sad history of the Canadian government’s residential school program has had a profound effect on First Nations peoples across the country. For filmmaker Nadia McLaren it’s personal history as well — her Ojibway grandmother was forced into a residential school and its repercussions have echoed through their family. Looking to understand her loving but troubled grandmother McLaren interviews seven First Nations elders about their experiences in residential schools. Mixing stark animated moments with human faces and home movie footage, this is a raw and honest documentary about a difficult chapter in Canadian history — a chapter that, for some, is not over. --Elan Mastai PLEASE SEED AND ENJOY!!!
