Director: Zeb Haradon
Cast: The Members of the Salt Lake City, Utah "Open Mind Forum"

September 11, 2001. Salt Lake City, Utah. A messianic group called "The Open Mind Forum" awaits the implementation of NESARA, a secret law 100 years in the making. Once implemented, NESARA will abolish the IRS, remove George W.Bush from office, expose Bush as a reptilian alien, and install a UFO-flying Jesus as America's new leader.

NESARA was already delayed as a result of 9/11. If Bush declares war with Iraq, there's no telling how much further this crucial law will be denied. "The Open Mind Forum" must channel all their faith and prayers toward the desperate hope that their UFO allies will intervene this war, thereby establishing NESARA and delivering us peace and harmony on Earth.

"Unbelievably outrageous, supremely ridiculous, absolutely f***ing crazy.
What Haradon captures on film is truly fascinating."

Forget the hanging chads and butterfly ballots. The Presidential election drama of 2000 is still a mystery to most Americans. "Recount Democracy" investigates charges of disenfranchisement and 180,000 uncounted Florida votes cast largely by the working poor and people of color, uncovering racial exclusion, voting rights violations and the subverting of a recount in the most contested and controversial election in U.S. history.

A civil war is being waged for control of Pakistan. The Taliban already rule the tribal belt. Now, they're bringing their fight straight to President Musharraf, an American sympathizer. Only one of many battles fought with what we know as "The Taliban", but do we know what Taliban is or means?

This is documentary about how a "Taliban" is born, trained and recruited. What type of person becomes a "Taliban", and why. In Pakistan, "Taliban" means "student". Like students anywhere else in the world, there are many... and they are ready to be taught a way of life until death.

Before reality TV, before "Girls Gone Wild", before the idea of young ladies baring their breasts for the camera became vogue, Ugly George roamed the streets of New York and persuaded young women to undress for his camera.

How did he get away with it? Why would any woman in her right mind cooperate? Could he possibly have had sex with more ladies than Wilt Chamberlain, as he claims?  "Boob Tube" documents two stories, one about a one man crusading machine against hypocrisy and two, about society's deep rooted obsession with naked women.

Endless Orgy for the Goddess of Perversion is a documentary that immerses you into the campy world of the grindhouse film era with dozens of sexy, strange and humorous clips taken from rare trailers and outrageous feature films. Expert testimony from a dozen "professors" and those who contributed to that era, is the hilarious glue that fuses it all together.

Grindhouse refers to the operations of a 24 hour theater that grinds out films around the clock. The term grind comes from the cranking sound that the old projectors made. Others say it refers to the early grindhouse films that showed girls stripping and grinding in back street 1930's burlesque theaters.

The grindhouse films were hyped as the scourge to decency, attracting sexually oppressed and frustrated urbanites to seedy theaters that featured these movies all night long. These films thumbed their nose at the morality of puritan ethics that millions abided by but secretly hated.

Cast: Benazir Bhutto

This documentary features interviews with Benazir Bhutto, the Muslim world's first female leader, who was touted as a symbol of modernity and democracy, but her name became synonymous with corruption. Born into one of the most powerful families of Pakistan, Bhutto had a privileged upbringing. It was only after her father, the President, was deposed and executed by General Zia that Bhutto entered politics.

Benazir spent years in prison, and when she was finally released, she moved to England and dedicated herself to the overthrow of General Zia. In 1987, after years of exile, over a million people crowded the streets to welcome her back to Pakistan. Fast forward ten years. Twice elected Prime Minister, twice ousted from office amidst corruption charges, and again exiled, Bhutto said "There are things I would like to have done differently", "Mistakes that were made".

In October 2007 she again returned to Pakistan to try to regain power, but was assassinated only two months later.

'Til Death Do Us Part takes the viewer on a journey with incarcerated battered women, as they relate their stories from first falling in love, through the abuse by their spouses, the murder, trial, parole process, and finally, for one woman, freedom. It is thought in our society that a woman can leave an abusive relationship at any time. However, the women in this film prove the contrary. They were under the age of 24, isolated from their families and had virtually no money. They all reached a point where there was a final beating in which the survival instinct prevailed. In these final moments, they snapped and killed. No one has heard their stories until now.

This film follows 8 women in the 2005 tournament who each think they can be the champion.

By Nazi law, anyone who was 25% Jewish was a Jew. Remarkably, many of these partial Jews, or "Mischlinge" (the German word for "mutt") were proud Germans, with roots that went back hundreds of years. Many were drafted into the Nazi army.

This fascinating documentary examines the life of four men who faced this paradox. "Hitler's Jewish Soldiers" tells an engrossing story of madness and vicious absurdity; a look into the systematic mind of Hitler's personal chaos.

Sex & The Celts traces the complete timeline of Irish sexual and gender development from the mysterious sexio-religious rites of pre-history to the all too blatant teenage coming of age rituals of present day life.

Dramatic reconstructions reveal such unexpected aspects of Irish history as the bisexual orientation of the macho Celtic warrior elite. Interviewees tell of an island which once had the right of a woman to experience orgasm enshrined in its legal framework. Documentary footage explores the visual heritage of the erotic from the Neolithic landscape of “detached sexual objects.” Sex & The Celts pauses in its timeline to subject particularly interesting shifts in sexual paradigms to the scrutiny of historical analysis…and some dryly humorous comment.

successful “Riverdance”

Through talking to people at every level in the creation of pornography, (from a 19 year old former waitress who had joined 3 days before to some of the founding fathers dating to the late 60's), we gain an insight on where this slow to change industry is really headed, and how it plans to deal with the looming specters of HIV, racism, and deep rooted misogyny.

Legendary novelist James Ellroy (LA Confidential, Black Dahlia) narrates and hosts this exciting docudrama about serial killer Robert A. “Bob” Berdella.

In 1988, Chris Bryson was found running down a Kansas City street naked, beaten, and bloody wearing nothing but a dog collar and a leash. He told police about Bob Berdella, a local business man and how Berdella had captured him, held him hostage, raped him, tortured him, and photographed him over several days.

Police later arrested Berdella and searched his mid-town Kansas City home where they found several hundred polaroid photographs, a detailed torture log, envelopes of human teeth and a human skull. It was soon discovered that Berdella had murdered six young men in his home after drugging them and performing his sick acts of sexual torture. He met a couple of the victims at his business, a small shop called "Bob's Bizarre Bazaar" where he sold artifacts from around the world related to the darker side of human nature for people with jaded tastes.Some lived the horrors for only a few days, one for six weeks.

After death, Berdella would cut up the bodies with an electric chain saw and a bone knife, place the body parts in empty dog food bags, put them into large trash bags setting them out for trash collection on Monday. It is believed that Berdella used specific organs of the victims as meat in several food dishes he would serve at his shop, although he denied this until the apprehension of serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer one year later.

For centuries the lives of the people of Ketama, a small village high up in the mountains of northern Morocco, have been intricately tied in with the drug hashish.

Hashish as daily labour, hashish as a bartering good, hashish as business, hashish as the basis and philosophy of a social system, hashish as the medium of dreams and hashish as the reason for stagnation. The film sketches a portrait of this life: a look at work and daily family life; the drug; music and landscape as a metaphysical projection surface; the question of freedom in a globalized world; and, at the core of the film, the stories of the people.
