Description:

Dan Aykroyd is not only an actor, but also a well-known researcher and populariser of the paranormal (as we could see in the series PSI Factor, for instance). Aykroyd has decided to share his vast knowledge of things widely discounted in mainstream science. He presents the results of research on UFO’s, conspiracy theory, extraterrestrials, and quantum physics. He also revisits some of the best known paranormal events of our time (including his own personal encounter). He says UFO’s are just the tip of a giant iceberg, and reflects on our position in the world, the universe at large, and the possibility of the extraterrestrial presence.

Director(-s): David Sereda

Born in Edmonton, Canada, in 1961. His first aspiration in life was to become an astronaut. In 1968 he witnessed a UFO along with hundreds of other witnesses. After this experience, he grew up as a UFO enthusiast never living in doubt of the phenomena that has swept the world since the Roswell incident in 1947. He has studied world religion, physics and paranormal psychology for over 25 years.

Screaming Masterpiece

Screaming Masterpiece

Gargandi Snilld

dir. Ari Alexander Ergis Magnusson

Iceland / Denmark / Netherlands, 2005 - 87

A flag-waving documentary on why Icelanders are not short on self-belief. The film explores how this tiny nation of 300,000 souls has managed to produce not only exportable pop from the likes of Björk and rock combo Sigur Ros, but also a thriving scene for jazz, folk and classical music. Iceland is a new country of only 60 years, though the nation’s history dates back to the 12th century. The interviewees cite the vibrant Icelandic language as inspiration, and also a strong sense of community, originality fostered by isolation from other cultures, the beauty of the island's landscape, and an august oral tradition stretching back a thousand or so years.

I am Cuba, the Siberian Mammoth

I am Cuba, the Siberian Mammoth

Soy Cuba, O Mamute Siberiano

dir. Vicente Ferraz

Brazil, 2004 - 90

This film examines the creation and exhibition of the propaganda film I Am Cuba, a Soviet-Cuban collaboration unknown in the West until the 1990’s. In the revolutionary fervour of the 1960’s, Cuba concentrated remarkable energy on establishing a new film culture. In a gesture of affirmation, a team of Soviet filmmakers, headed by director Mikhail Kalatozov, entered into a co-production with several film craftsmen in the island nation. Commemorating Cuba's political struggles and ideals, the film featured haunting performances by non-professional actors, and bravura technical innovations still astonishing for their audacity and beauty. These elements are recalled by technicians, actors, and bureaucrats still living in Cuba, who reflect on the film's conception and its ultimate canonization by directors including Martin Scorsese and Francis Ford Coppola.

Punk: Attitude

dir. Don Letts

What is Punk? It depends on who you ask.

The film explores the development of music such as punk rock, new wave, hip-hop, hardcore and grunge, proving that a youth-based movement truly can change the face of music and art.
