The Singing Revolution
Original Music Composer
Most people don't think about singing when they think about revolutions. But song was the weapon of choice when, between 1986 and 1991, Estonians sought to free themselves from decades of Soviet occupation. During those years, hundreds of thousands gathered in public to sing forbidden patriotic songs and to rally for independence. "The young people, without any political party, and without any politicians, just came together ... not only tens of thousands but hundreds of thousands ... to gather and to sing and to give this nation a new spirit," remarks Mart Laar, a Singing Revolution leader featured in the film and the first post-Soviet Prime Minister of Estonia. "This was the idea of the Singing Revolution." James Tusty and Maureen Castle Tusty's "The Singing Revolution" tells the moving story of how the Estonian people peacefully regained their freedom--and helped topple an empire along the way.
The Rise & Fall of Penn Station
Music
In 1910, the Pennsylvania Railroad successfully accomplished the enormous engineering feat of building tunnels under New York City's Hudson and East Rivers, connecting the railroad to New York and New England, knitting together the entire eastern half of the United States. The tunnels terminated in what was one of the greatest architectural achievements of its time, Pennsylvania Station. Penn Station covered nearly eight acres, extended two city blocks, and housed one of the largest public spaces in the world. But just 53 years after the station’s opening, the monumental building that was supposed to last forever, to herald and represent the American Empire, was slated to be destroyed.
Третья мировая война
Music
В этом пародийном документальном фильме используются архивные кадры, интервью и отчеты, вырванные из контекста, и постановочные интервью, чтобы подчеркнуть возможную эскалацию ядерной войны. В этой особенности напряженность в Восточной Германии и восстание, спровоцированное визитом Горбачева, видят успешный военный переворот, происходящий в СССР. Действия Запада против жестоких репрессий против гражданского населения усиливают напряженность между сторонами, что в конечном итоге приводит к ядерной войне.
