Description

The film the condition of the planet with an unapologetic perspective. It packs a punch. The movie features an ongoing dialogue throughout with experts from all over the world, including former Soviet Prime Minister Mikhail Gorbachev, renowned scientist Stephen Hawking, former head of the CIA R. James Woolsey and sustainable design experts William McDonough and Bruce Mau in addition to over 50 leading scientists, thinkers and leaders who discuss the most important issues that face our planet and people.– as a friend said to me after seeing the flick, "That had everything that An Inconvenient Truth didn't…solutions". It is full of incredible cinematograph, strong narrative and leaves you with a sense that all is not lost.

No End in Sight

First to recommend

Description

The first film of its kind to chronicle the reasons behind Iraq's descent into guerilla war, warlord rule, criminality and anarchy, 'No End in Sight' is a jaw-dropping, insider's tale of wholesale incompetence, recklessness and venality. Based on over 200 hours of footage, the film provides a candid retelling of the events following the fall of Baghdad in 2003. The film systematically dissects the Bush administration's Iraq policy decisions and their consequences, which now include 3,000 American deaths and 20,000 American wounded, Iraq on the brink of civil war, hundreds of thousands of Iraqi civilian deaths, the strengthening of Iran, the weakening of the U.S. military and economic costs of over $2 trillion. It marks the first time Americans will be allowed inside the White House, Pentagon and Baghdad's Green Zone to understand for themselves the disintegration of Iraq.

Manda Bala

First to recommend

Description

This film is a cinematic bullet into the cerebral cortex, a documentary that unflinchingly exploring the cycles of violence that plague Brazil's upper and lower economic classes in fits of rampant corruption and violent kidnappings. The film chronicles a frog farm connected to a corrupt politician and one of the most powerful men in Brazil; a kidnapping victim who had both her ears cut off before she was released to her parents; a wealthy plastic surgeon who pioneered the procedure used to reconstruct the ears of kidnapping victims; and a kidnapper who has watched many like him escape the poorest parts of Brazil for the wealthier Sao Paolo, where they terrorize the upper class with kidnappings, theft and murder. 'Manda Bala' explores the various cottage industries cropping up in response to the violence and links these stories to weave a compelling narrative about what happens in a country where the rich and powerful steal from the poor, and in turn some of the poor terrorize the rich.

Linda Loudermilk Men's Collection

First to recommend

Description

When it comes to fashion, girls have all the fun! And in the realm of eco-fashion, until now, all a guy could hope for was organic cotton t-shirts and jeans without much style. With the launch of Loudermilk Men from the LA-based eco- extraordinaire fashionista Linda Loudermilk– "the fearless urban male who doesn't need a gas guzzler to prove himself" can go green with clothing "grounded in sharp tailoring and clean lines". "It's a mix of Saville Row inspired suitings, with t-shirts and dress shirts to mix and match". Linda says it best, "Loudermilk Men is made in the tradition of the most expensive suit you can buy. It has a very British look combined with a gothic Belgian flare. My menswear is designed for men who are not afraid to express themselves through their clothing."
