Through interviews with leading psychologists and scientists, Neurons to Nirvana explores the history of four powerful psychedelic substances (LSD, Psilocybin, MDMA and Ayahuasca) and their previously established medicinal potential. Strictly focusing on the science and medicinal properties of these drugs, Neurons to Nirvana looks into why our society has created such a social and political bias against even allowing research to continue the exploration of any possible positive effects they can present in treating some of today's most challenging afflictions.

In sixteen chapters containing four and a half hours of materials, Tracks Across Sand offers a unique chance to travel to the edge of the Kalahari, to a struggle for indigenous rights, and into the heart of contemporary South Africa. Driven from their lands, forced into a life of destitution, and denied the right even to speak their own languages, the ‡Khomani San fight for their heritage. Culled from over 130 hours of video recorded between 1996 and 2010, Tracks presents a unique record of the ‡Khomani San, bringing together the story of Africa's first Bushman claim, from preparation through to ten years after the claim was granted. Seen through the eyes and told in the words of the ‡Khomani San themselves, this film chronicles the struggle for indigenous rights by a people who are defying a history that has attempted and failed to make them disappear.

El best-seller de Ronald Wright, Breve historia del progreso, inspiró este réquiem cinematográfico al "progreso de siempre". A lo largo de la historia de la humanidad, aquello que parecía "progreso" siempre ha resultado un tiro por la culata. Algunos de los más reconocidos pensadores, activistas, banqueros y científicos nos desafían a superar las trampas del progreso, las cuales destruyeron las antiguas civilizaciones, pero se encuentran traicioneramente integradas en la nuestra.

La visión de la Tierra desde el espacio ya no es ciencia ficción. Wernher von Braun, un científico nazi que dirigió la NASA, durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial (1939-1945) concibió un sueño que se está haciendo realidad. Posiblemente ya hay máquinas de guerra orbitando alrededor de la Tierra. Quizá se firmen acuerdos internacionales para mantener el espacio libre de armas. Podría haber planes para enviar al espacio el armamento adecuado para acabar con la vida en el planeta. A base de material de archivo procedente de la Unidad Espacial del ejército norteamericano, Pax Americana muestra cómo se posicionan generales, analistas, políticos, diplomáticos, activistas por la paz y pilotos ante una cuestión tan crítica como desconocida.
