We Are from Kronstadt

Summary In 1919, during the post-revolution Russian Civil War, a naval detachment (made up of communist Reds) defends the strategic city of Petrograd from the White Russian counterrevolutionary forces. Director Yefim Dzigan had himself fought for the Bolsheviks in the fleet, so the Red sailors are the heroes of the film. The young Soviet State was besieged by enemies on all sides, and the Revolution was fighting for its life. While clearly propagandistic, the film is often quite poetic visually, not naturalistic as was prescribed by authorities at the time. The film was honored at the 1937 Paris World's Fair. The video version is in Russian with English subtitles. View more details

Broken: The Webseries

Ordinary people doing extraordinary things. Unlike any other series of its kind, "Broken" is deemed to mix reality and television drama together. It will take you on a journey, through the doors of a struggling community center based in the heart of one of the fastest growing areas in the Eastern US, Raleigh NC. It reveals the drama, lies, love triangles, and infidelity found among some of the highest, well known public figures in the area. The Elam Marshal Community Center serves as a positive getaway to many troubled teens in the Triangle. It's evident that the staff's main goal is the well-being of the occupants, but what happens when the staff of such a highly notable center has secrets of their own? After being handed the title of Director of the Elam Marshal Community Center by her now sickened Mom, Allie is faced with a host of decisions. ? Her marriage with the town's most well- known attorney, Rick Gray, is crumbling. Her baby brother is a hopeless victim to gambling. Her Mom is deathly ill, and due to the poor conditions of the center, the state is now threatening to close its doors forever. Allie is determined to keep her Mother's name alive, by keeping the center open, however Rick feels that the low-budgeted establishment is nothing more than a bottomless, hopeless money pit. It isn't until Rick discovers that Allie has been secretly taking thousands of dollars from their personal account each month to keep the center open that he decides to take matters into his own hands, and do whatever it takes to diminish the existence of the center. He is determined to accomplish this at whatever risk necessary, even if it means sacrificing the safety of his family, or the promises made during his vows.
