Seventy years ago this month the bombing of Hiroshima showed the appalling destructive power of the atomic bomb. Mark Cousins’ bold new documentary looks at death in the atomic age, but life too. Using only archive film and a new musical score by the band Mogwai, Atomic shows us an impressionistic kaleidoscope of our nuclear times: protest marches, Cold War sabre rattling, Chernobyl and Fukishima, but also the sublime beauty of the atomic world, and how X Rays and MRI scans have improved human lives. The nuclear age has been a nightmare, but dreamlike too.
"Once upon a time, before people came along, all the creatures were free and able to be with one another", narrates the voiceover. "All the animals danced together and were immeasurably happy. There was only one who wasn't invited to the celebration - the frog. In his rage about the injustice, he committed suicide." Something Romani and frogs have in common is that they will never be unseen, or stay unnoticed. In her film, young director Leonor Teles weaves the life circumstance of Romani in Portugal today with the recollections of a yesterday. Anything but a passive observer, Teles consciously decides to participate and take up position. As a third pillar, she establishes an active applied performance art that becomes integrated in the cinematic narrative. Thereby transforming "once upon a time" into "there is". "Afterwards, nothing will be as it was and the melody of life will have changed", explains a voice off-camera.

Less than 55 years ago, Dubai International Airport was a vast desert of sand. But today, it is a modern mecca of international air travel. With 344,000 flights, 57 million passengers and 2 million tons of cargo flying in and out each year, it is the world’s third busiest airport for international passengers. National Geographic Channel go behind-the-scenes of Dubai International’s three massive terminals, including Terminal 3 – the largest building on earth by floor space, measuring 359 football pitches in size! With unprecedented access to all facets of this mega facility, the series follows some of the 60,000 staff working hard to keep it safe, secure, and on schedule. From Air Traffic Control handling emergency landings, customs intercepting suspected drug smugglers and engineers taking apart multi-million dollar jets to dealing with late flights and angry passengers, cargo headaches and even the construction of brand new USD$3.2 billion dollar terminal, NGC provides a 360-degree view of this “ultimate airport.”

这是一部伟大的电影纪录片,拍摄于1962年, 发行于1963年,出自伊朗历史上最伟大的女诗人,哲学家及电影导演 Forugh Farrokhzad。这是她唯一传世的电影作品!是世界纪录片史中难得一见的奇葩。 此片虽然只有短短20分钟,但影片忠实纪录了伊朗一个麻风村里所有的村民的生活点滴,他们她们由于麻风病而变得相貌丑陋,但他们她们却从未放弃生活, Forugh Farrokhzad用自己手中的摄影机,用质朴感人,优美简洁的黑白影像告诉我们丑陋并不是一种障碍,只要我们别放弃生活。 人民爱戴而又有争议性的女诗人Forugh Farrokhzad 去了阿塞拜疆,拍摄了这部短片。 在Farrokhzad 以一种悲伤的低调诵读她自己的诗歌的同时,影片阴郁地展现了管弦乐下的失落村庄。 五年后, 在她已经在伊朗的写作文坛上建立了几乎传奇式的地位时,她在一次车祸中丧生,时年32岁, 从而成为以后几代愤怒波斯妇女们的女权主义的试金石。
