The Origin of the Species: Led Zeppelin
They became the biggest rock group in the world. But what about the years leading up to Led Zep's ascension to the rock throne? This 70-minute film covers the years of struggling for Page, Plant, Jones and Bonham before Led Zeppelin: the session studios, the amateur band scene of the 1960s, the modest successes of outfits like the Yardbirds and Band Of Joy, and the eventual formation of Led Zeppelin and success of the first two albums. It features rare musical performances, and obscure footage of rare interviews and rarely seen photographs. The program is injected with review, comment, criticism and insight from former Melody Maker journalist Chris Welch; ex-1960s NME editor Keith Altham; Yardbirds guitarist Chris Dreja and many more.

Investigation of a Flame
starring: Lynne Sachs, Daniel Berrigan, Philip Berrigan
On May 17, 1968, three Catholic priests, a nurse, an artist and four others walked into the Catonsville, Maryland draft board office, grabbed selective service records, and burned them with homemade napalm.
starring: Lynne Sachs, Daniel Berrigan, Philip Berrigan
On May 17, 1968, three Catholic priests, a nurse, an artist and four others walked into the Catonsville, Maryland draft board office, grabbed selective service records, and burned them with homemade napalm.
INVESTIGATION OF A FLAME is an intimate look at this unlikely band - dubbed the Catonsville Nine - who broke the law in a poetic act of civil disobedience. The publicity frmo their ensuing trial helped galvanize an American public that was become increasingly disillusioned with the Vietnam War.
The film explores this Sixties protest within the context of these extremely different times: times in which foes of Middle East peace, abortion, and technology resort to violence to access the public imagination. Lynne Sachs has combined volatile, long-unseen, archival footage with a series of informal interviews with Daniel and Philip Berrigan, Howard Zinn, John Hogan, Tom Lewis, and Marjorie and Tom Melville. The meditative result encourages viewers to ponder the contemporary relevance of civil disobedience, and the implications of personal sacrifice for the greater good.

Lake Placid: An Olympic History
starring: Jack Shea, J. Bernard Fell, Ted Kastenbaum, Mike Eruzione
directed by: Marc Nathanson
As the world celebrates the XXth Olympic Winter Games in Torino, a new documentary chronicles the inspiring story of the tiny town that gave America its greatest Olympic triumph. Lake Placid: An Olympic History traces the rise of Lake Placid, New York, from an unknown mountain village to the home of two Winter Olympics and the U.S. Hockey Team's Miracle on Ice. As the site of the nation's first winter resort at the turn of the century, Lake Placid boasted some of the nation's top winter athletes when it hosted the Third Winter Olympics in 1932. As the decades passed and the Games expanded, some felt the Olympics had grown too large for this tiny Adirondack village. But they underestimated the spirit of the townspeople. Lake Placid: An Olympic History chronicles how the town's 2,800 residents persevered through hardship and returned the Games to their small-town roots. The result, in 1980, was the Miracle on Ice, Eric Heiden's five gold medals, and America's most memorable Winter Olympic Games. Blending rare audio recordings with archival films and photographs, Lake Placid: An Olympic History is the story of America's Winter Sports Capital - where the spirit of the Olympics lives on, every day.

I Know I'm Not Alone
starring: Michael Franti
directed by: Michael Franti
In 2004 Michael Franti decided to ‘walk his talk’ and traveled to the war zones of Iraq, Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories. This wasn’t a USO green zone sponsored visit – Franti and his team organized a trip that would take him to the core of the red-zoned, war torn neighborhoods of Baghdad, the West Bank and Gaza Strip armed with only a guitar, video cameras and the intent to experience first hand the human cost of war. Throughout his journey he shares his music with families, doctors, musicians, soldiers and everyday people who in turn reveal to him the often overlooked human cost of war. Out of this expedition, Franti has produced and directed a compelling documentary film titled I Know I’m Not Alone. With its guerrilla style footage captured in active war zones, the documentary is unlike the many academic and politically driven pieces in the marketplace, instead offering the audience a sense of intimate travel and the opportunity to hear the voices of everyday people living, creating and surviving under the harsh conditions of war and occupation.
