Краткое содержание

Winston Churchill understood the power of films, but the true extent of his use of cinema as a propaganda tool is rarely explored. In 1934, one of Britain's most celebrated film producers, Alexander Korda, signed Churchill up as a screenwriter and historical advisor. It was the start of a unique collaboration. Churchill provided script notes for Korda's productions and penned an epic screenplay. When war broke out, their collaboration took on national importance. Korda was sent on a mission to Hollywood to help bring America into the war, with positive results. With access to previously undiscovered documents, this film documentary examines that mission and a friendship that underpinned a unique, creative partnership.

Хиросима
26 июля крeйсер "Индиaнaпoлис" дoстaвил aтомную бoмбу "Малыш" на остров Тиниан. 6 августa 1945 года американский военный самoлет Б-29 "Энoла Гей", пилотируемый Томасом Фереби, взлетел с Тиниана. А в 8:15 по местному времени этот самолет сбросил бомбу на японский город Хиросима. Бомба мощностью 20 тыс. тонн тротилового эквивалента взорвалась на высоте 600 метров над городом... В этой программе с помощью реальной кинохроники, актеров и компьютерной графики воссозданы события самой чудовищной и впечатляющей бомбардировки в истории человечества. Это была не просто военная операция, а демонстрация силы США, в результате которой до конца 1945 года в Хиросиме погибли около 140 тысяч человек - почти половина населения города. Тысячи других жителей умерли от полученных ранений и лучевой болезни в последовавшие годы. Очень важно, чтобы трагическая судьба Хиросимы сохранялась в исторической памяти подрастающих поколений.

Крупный план
Фильм об авантюристе, который выдал себя за знаменитого режиссера Мохсена Махмальбафа, проник в зажиточный дом (якобы для съемок) и был арестован по подозрению в мошенничестве и грабеже. Судебный процесс составляет сюжетную канву фильма, но истинный его предмет — это особый статус кино в Иране. Кинематограф здесь стал не только частью духовной жизни элиты, но и элементом личного и национального престижа, достоянием широких масс.

Там Клаудио проходит через ад допросов, избиений, унижений и предательств. Кошмарный мир безумного произвола и беспрестанного насилия, как физического, так и духовного. Вместе с другими заключенными он борется за жизнь, ожидая, когда его судьба будет, наконец, решена. После четырех месяцев в лагере, поняв, что смертельного приговора им не избежать, Клаудио и трое других пленников решаются на отчаянный шаг.

Includes the real history of the "first thanksgiving".
