Explore the Wildlife Kingdom: Dolphins - Tribes of the Sea
starring: Grant Goodeve
Probably no other sea animal has captured our affection and attention like the dolphin. Its intelligence and athleticism has fascinated observers for years. Dolphins seem to exhibit a friendly willingness to co-operate with humans…something very rare in the wild animal kingdom. We think we know them - racing through aquariums and performing at marine parks. But dolphins are more complex animals, with the capacity for language and affection. In DOLPHINS: Tribes of the Sea we travel the world to see how dolphin groups in different locales interact with humans. And we visit researchers as they discover just how intelligent and clever and intuitive dolphins really are.

The Future Is Wild
starring: Christian Rodska, Jeremy Rayner, Bruce H. Tiffney, Stephen Harris, Stephen R. Palumbi
Imagine a world far, far into the future. A world very different than our own where people have been wiped out by massive climatic and geological changes, nearly destroying the Earth. What would the world be like, and what kinds of creatures could survive? An international team of eminent scientists was formed to predict the future and its new life forms in five million, 100 million and 200 million years. The scientists predicted that the Earth would go through several phases, including Ice World after five million years, Hothouse World at 100 million years and New World at 200 million years. To portray the scenery as accurately as possible, a camera crew traveled to remote locations around the world. State-of-the-art animation helped bring to life such freakish beings as Flishes combining the characteristics of birds and fish, the giant slimemold known as the Slithersucker, the Toraton tortoise bigger than any dinosaur, tree-dwelling squids called Squibbons, the spewing Spitfire Bird and many more!

starring: Audrey Hepburn, Michael York, Gustavo Tavares
directed by: Bruce Franchini
Gardens of the World with Audrey Hepburn on DVD brings together for the first time ever all eight programs in this beautiful series, the music soundtrack, and never-before-seen footage of Audrey Hepburn on location in England. This candid, intimate chronicle of what was, at the time, considered a typical day of filming with Audrey for Gardens of the World turned out not to be typical at all. She was awarded an Emmy for her performance; and the footage resoundingly answers the two most often asked questions about Audrey herself - "What was she really like?" "Was she truly as wonderful as she seems?"

The Gleaners and I
starring: François Wertheimer, Agnès Varda, Bodan Litnanski, Macha Makeïeff
directed by: Agnès Varda
Agnès Varda, Grande Dame of the French New Wave, has made 2001's most acclaimed non-fiction film-a self-described "wandering-road documentary." Beginning with the famous Jean-François Millet painting of women gathering wheat left over from a harvest, she focuses her ever-seeking eye on gleaners: those who scour already-reaped fields for the odd potato or turnip. Her investigation leads us from forgotten corners of the French countryside to off-hours at the green markets of Paris, following those who insist on finding a use for that which society has cast off, whether out of necessity or activism. Varda's own ruminations on her life as a filmmaker (a gleaner of sorts) give her a connection to her subjects that creates a touching human portrait that the L.A. Weekly deemed "a protest film that's part social critique, part travelogue, but always an unsentimental celebration of human resilience." This Edition features the 60-minute follow-up film GLEANERS: TWO YEARS LATER.
