S1.E3 ∙ Feuerläufer und Knochenfresser

A camera-less lettrist film about the fear of flying, security checks and time zones.

A documentary introduction from musicologist Michael Nupen which places the Symphony and the life and work of Shostakovich in the context of its time. The performance of Symphony No.5 in D minor OP.47 played by The Russian Federation State Symphony Orchesta conducted by Yevgeni Svetlanov.

An experimental reworking of Anton Chekhov's THE SEAGULL.

What do you do if your friends, your neighbors, your loved ones are threatened? Killed? Held hostage? Mutilated? Do you hate the people who do these things, vowing to extract revenge? People often forget that the continent of North America has large massive nations. We share borders, people, concerns. And Humanity. This eight-year labor of love from the co-creator of "What The Bleep Do We Know?" explores the personal side of the headlines about crime in Mexico, and the very human responses to that violence, in all their choices. Sometimes the hardest choice is the best choice.
