If something of import has taken place in our lifetimes, chances are that Steve McCurry has photographed it, from the wars in the Arab world to the 9/11 attacks. Denis Delestrac’s documentary on the photographer charts McCurry’s journey through a restless life spent on constant move, chronicling our times and living with the intense loneliness and trauma that came along with his work. Today, surrounded by a loving family, McCurry is finally home but never not in the pursuit of color.

Nureyev
Editor
Este impressionante e belo documentário dos diretores indicados ao BAFTA Jacqui e David Morris acompanha a vida extraordinária de Rudolf Nureyev. Do nascimento no vagão de quinta classe de um trem Transiberiano ao seu dramático salto para a liberdade no ocidente no auge da Guerra Fria, assim como sua adulação sem precedentes como o dançarino mais famoso do mundo. O filme retrata a improvável, porém legendária parceria de Nureyev com Margot Fonteyn e registra sua ascensão meteórica ao status de fenômeno cultural global. A vida de Nureyev desenrola-se como a trama avassaladora de um clássico romance russo. A sua história é a história da Rússia. Mesclando imagens nunca antes vistas com a trilha sonora original do premiado compositor Alex Baranowski e as encantadoras performances recém coreografadas do balé dirigido por Russell Maliphant, formado pela companhia britânica Royal Ballet, NUREYEV é uma experiência teatral e cinematográfica como nenhuma outra.

Licence to Krill

In February 2013 a film crew led by documentary filmmaker David Sington will leave Montevideo in Uruguay for a voyage across the South Atlantic into the stormiest waters on Earth. Their destination will be a rendezvous with the Saga Sea, a high-technology trawler operating in the Antarctic Ocean. It will be a voyage to the latest and possibly last frontier between industrial civilization and the natural world, in search of a mysterious sea creature which for decades has held the promise of transforming human nutrition: krill. Could the exploitation of krill improve diet across the globe, or will it simply lead to the collapse of one of the most important ecosystems on the planet?
