　　开篇通过情景再现独立战争的经典场面，假设了华盛顿死于战争等情况下美国将何去何从。在长久以来的观念中，美国作为世界上唯一的超级大国成为世界人民心驰神往的理想国度，而美国梦则帮助一代又一代的普通民众走向成功，梦想成真。但是外表华丽的美利坚却有着永远无法洗刷的原罪，窃取土地、窃取劳动、窃取资源等等，是许多学者和平民对这个咄咄逼人的帝国最强烈的指控。本片导演Dinesh D’Souza通过采访和史料，试图推翻上述有失偏颇的指控，进而指出真正让美利坚之梦破碎的恰恰是奥巴马、希拉里及其背后的少数利益既得者。孰是孰非，莫衷一是，或许不过又是一场纸牌屋的博弈……
　　Dinesh D’Souza是一名印度裔美国人，他曾导演纪录片《2016：奥巴马的美国》试图影响2012年的大选。

　　Professor Mary Beard, renowned classicist and TV historian, is to explore what life was like in one of the world’s most extraordinary and iconic archaeological sites, in Pompeii: Life Before Death, a new landmark programme for BBC One.
　　Mary Beard – a world Pompeii expert and author of Pompeii: Life Of A Roman Town – will be joining an international team as they bring the very latest technology to bear on this most extraordinary of archaeological sites.
　　Mary Beard says: “This is a really exciting chance to find out more about the ordinary people who lived in ancient Pompeii. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity. I'm hoping we're going to unlock some if the secrets about who the people were.”
　　For the first time, a team is CT scanning and fully investigating the world-famous casts of the bodies to analyse the skeletons trapped within, to ascertain all they can about who they were, where they came from and how they lived. A team is also conducting DNA analysis of the bodies for the first time.
　　Elsewhere, the documentary will follow the work of recovering damaged frescoes and mosaics, the excavation and rebuilding of certain key buildings and the organisation and cataloguing of the thousands of astonishing artefacts in the storerooms – from loaves of bread to pet monkeys, paint pots to purses. It will shine a light on the work of archaeologists who are exploring the third of the town that has never been excavated, and will present a unique first look at the complete Pompeii in stunning CGI.
　　Using the evidence gleaned from all this research, the BBC One film will piece together a full picture of daily life in Pompeii before the town was destroyed by the eruption of Vesuvius in AD79.

　　Yael Hersonski's powerful documentary achieves a remarkable feat through its penetrating look at another film-the now-infamous Nazi-produced film about the Warsaw Ghetto. Discovered after the war, the unfinished work, with no soundtrack, quickly became a resource for historians seeking an authentic record, despite its elaborate propagandistic construction. The later discovery of a long-missing reel complicated earlier readings, showing the manipulations of camera crews in these "everyday" scenes. Well-heeled Jews attending elegant dinners and theatricals (while callously stepping over the dead bodies of compatriots) now appeared as unwilling, but complicit, actors, alternately fearful and in denial of their looming fate. ——Written by Sundance Film Festival
