8-year-old Aaron Averhart was just a year shy of being able to move up from Cub Scout to Boy Scout when he received a special request from an admired Boy Scout leader, William (Bill) Sheehan. As Aaron rose up the Boy Scout ranks, he slowly became aware of Sheehan’s grooming techniques and began to realize he had much more sinister intentions in store for him. If Aaron’s parents had known that since the 1920s the Boy Scouts of America had been keeping hidden files on dangerous pedophiles in their ranks while failing to warn the public, the police, the scouts, their parents, or even fully removing them from the Boy Scouts program, they would have never allowed young Aaron to be part of such a complicit and corrupt organization.
A group of teenagers from Flint, Michigan filmed themselves kidnapping and terrorizing a new acquaintance, before taking her out to a woods and dumping her in a shallow grave. They then taunted their terrified and blindfolded victim asking if she had any last requests before they cut her throat. But was the kidnap real or just a game? Three days later the tape was in the hands of the police and the 5 teenager friends were in custody facing life imprisonment. This program talks to the people at the heart of this story - including two of the defendants - in an attempt to understand what really happened in the woods around Flint last year. It also screens the video of the 'abduction'. What is revealed is an extraordinary and disturbing record of a night when something went terribly, terribly wrong.

Tears of the Buddha: Spirituality and Emotions explores the spiritual path through the lens of emotion. Director Joel Lesko interviews modern Buddhistic teachers to find out how their teachings apply in daily life - are emotions an impediment to spiritual growth? What about so-called unspiritual emotions like anger and hate? Do emotions trap a seeker in the personal self? Tears is a serious look at an area of life that is often confusing and problematic for people in spiritual practices. Rather than another documentary about a teacher's enlightenment or awakening, Tears of the Buddha questions age-old teachings about emotions and leads to an important conversation about individual selfhood - is it real, or is it an illusion? Lesko shares his own experiences and interviews leading teachers including Gangaji, Eli-Jaxon-Bear, Jeff Foster, and others.

"Água nas guelras" (Agua en las branquias) relata la inmersión ritual de Franz, un hombre que durante su niñez se mudó con su familia de una gran ciudad alemana a una pequeña isla perdida en el Océano Atlántico, las Islas Azores, donde con el paso del tiempo logró descubrirse a sí mismo y concebir una vida muy diferente a la que tenía mientras surgía una conexión profunda entre él y su entorno natural. "Água nas guelras" (Agua en las branquias) es una historia sobre la identidad y el hogar, sobre la complejidad del proceso que lleva a un hombre a conocerse a sí mismo y que dibuja una metáfora entre el mundo submarino con la vida en la isla. De igual forma muestra la dificultad del impacto con inmersiones en apnea a decenas de metros de profundidad, así como la lucha de venir de una gran ciudad industrializada y encontrarte comenzando una nueva vida en una pequeña isla en medio del océano.
