Sinopsis
Jake Cassevetes es un tirador de renombre mundial que acaba de ser incrustado durante la invasión de los EE. UU. A Iraq. Como un interlocutor bien pagado para las redes, Jake no acepta la teoría de la conspiración de izquierdas de una prensa controlada por la empresa. Pero, después de descubrir que gran parte de su mejor metraje en Iraq fue censurado por la red, Jake está cada vez más desilusionado con sus maestros corporativos. Cuando recibe una tarea para filmar en las calles de las protestas de la Convención Nacional Republicana, conoce a Seven, uno de los jóvenes líderes del anarquista Black Bloc enmascarado. Jake rápidamente gana la confianza del grupo y se le permite seguirlos a medida que avanzan en la demostración. Más tarde esa noche, después de disparar a Seven con su máscara describiendo los objetivos militantes del Bloque, la cinta de video se devuelve por error a la red con el resto de su metraje. Cuando va a recuperar la cinta, él es ...
The satirical journey of two guys in Los Angeles making their film as they go through the twisted world that is: Hollywood.
Fanatical birdwatchers have descended upon a small town in the Arkansas bayou in hopes of finding the celebrated Ivory Billed Woodpecker. Declared extinct in the 1940’s, the bird has apparently been spotted by numerous experts. Enter amateur birder and poet Johnny Neander, who has convinced his taciturn sidekick that he will be the one to find the elusive woodpecker. The ensuing chaos divides the small town between believers and non-believers, rabid environmentalists and opportunistic entrepreneurs. Much like the bird itself, Woodpecker explores the intersection of fact and fiction, manipulating our notions of documentary and narrative techniques within a tragic comedy about hope, perception, and some very very strange birds.
Six years in the making, this documentary film follows outspoken indie-rock hero Bob Forrest, through his life-threatening struggle with addiction, to his transformation into one of the most influential and controversial drug counselors in the US today. BOB AND THE MONSTER crafts contemporary footage, animation and compelling interviews with archival performances and personal videos from Bob's past to reveal the complex layers of this troubled, but hopeful soul. Testimony from his peers, including Courtney Love, Anthony Kiedis and Flea add texture, but it's the depth of Bob's music, interwoven throughout the film, that illuminates this unforgettable and inspirational story.
