It showcases the story behind the first Black Barbie. It started with the filmmaker's 83-year old aunt, Beulah Mae Mitchell and a seemingly simple question: "why not make a Barbie that looks like me?"
为了切断所有相冲突的科学观点，也为了即将到来的为人之父做准备，Damon Gameau决定找出糖对人体健康的真正作用。Damon Gameau是一名澳大利亚演员兼导演，他几年来坚持食用无糖食品，亲自试验一项关于糖的实验。曾经有一段时间，60天内Damon Gameau每天吃40匙的糖，这是正常人平均每天的糖摄入量。食品中自身含有的糖份通常被认为是健康的。因此，甜品、巧克力、冰淇淋和苏打水是不健康的，而果汁、格兰诺拉麦片酸奶以及大量的“光”产品却是无害的。随着实验的进行，Damon Gameau和演员、动画师和特效师共同检验了那些“垃圾”食品，并和医疗专家小组一起讨论实验并且得出了一个临时的显著结果。例如，Stephen Fry带来了一场关于葡萄糖、蔗糖和果糖区别的精彩演示，而Gameau（或者是他的“纳米版”）则展示了一场在自己大脑中精确地找出糖所在之处的奇妙旅程。除了实验内容，本片也包括大量轻松的访谈，其中有对原住民社区的一名嗜糖者的采访以及一位受到可口可乐公司赞助的科学家的采访。
高雄是日治時期的軍事重地，也是二二八事件中遭受嚴重軍事鎮壓的地區。本片尋訪經歷過二戰的台籍日本兵、二二八事件雄中自衛隊成員，及二二八事件受難者遺族，他們走過被噤聲的年代，恐懼及創傷如影隨形，成為一生都無法卸下的歷史馱負，鏡頭緩緩隨著他們的日常身影流動，他們從日常中撿拾記憶，還原歷經歷史劫難的生命軌跡，從被迫參戰的無奈際遇，到失去親人又背負標籤、跌宕波折的成長處境，沒有悲憤控訴，只有娓娓傾吐，讓他們重新擁有屬於自己的個體傷痕記憶。 深植在他們身體裡的記憶，也留存在時間、空間的縫隙中，本片亦靜靜凝望散落高雄各地的軍事遺址，見證著工兵的血淚與青春；當倖存者逐漸凋零，就以訴說及凝視抵抗遺忘，記憶猶如在這塊土地上努力生長的野番茄，結出強韌的生命果實，展現堅毅不拔的姿態。

One of our favourite natural history subjects, the good old dinosaur, gets a makeover and then some in this fantastically ambitious and groundbreaking documentary. Based on cutting-edge palaeontology and the latest fossil records, DINOTASIA presents a series of vignettes about dinosaurs - both familiar faces and some we have only found out about in the past ten years. The film uses CGI to bring the stories to life, but draws on animation's birth in silent film and early Disney to create proper, traditional visual storytelling. Werner Herzog narrates, reuniting with the team behind GRIZZLY MAN and CAVE OF FORGOTTEN DREAMS.

An exceptional documentary, Les Dessins d'Yves Saint Laurent by Loïc Prigent is an exclusive immersive and intimate glimpe from the perspective of Pierre Bergé, into the creative world of the couture designer through his numerous sketches.

Chapman and Maclain Way’s energetic telling of one of baseball’s great, unheralded stories is as much about independent spirit as it is about the game. When Portland, Oregon, lost its longtime minor-league affiliate, Bing Russell—who briefly played ball professionally before enjoying a successful Hollywood acting career—bought the territory and formed a single-A team to operate outside the confines of major-league baseball. When they took the field in 1973, the Mavericks—the only independent team in America—started with two strikes against them. What did Deputy Clem from Bonanza know about baseball? Or Portland, for that matter? The only thing uniting his players, recruited at open tryouts, was that no other team wanted them. Skeptics agreed that it could never work. But Bing understood a ballplayer’s dreams, and he understood an audience. His quirky, unkempt castoffs won games, and they won fans, shattering minor-league attendance records. Their spirit was contagious, and during their short reign, the Mavericks—a restaurant owner turned manager, left-handed catcher, and blackballed pitcher among them—brought independence back to baseball and embodied what it was all about: the love of the game. - J.N.
