Knallipäisen huligaanin Alexin matka moraalittomasta pikkurikollisesta aivopestyksi kunnolliseksi kansalaiseksi ja takaisin hulttioksi muodostaa dynaamisen kaaren Anthony Burgessin romaaniin perustuvassa Stanley Kubrickin futuristisessa sokkielokuvassa. Vaikka Kellopeliappelsiini herätti aluksi vastustusta, se kilpaili neljästä Oscar®- palkinnosta* (mm. parhaan elokuvan palkinnosta).

Russell on terästehtaalla raatava duunari, joka viettää vapaat hetkensä kuolemansairaan isänsä kanssa. Russellin pikkuveli Rodney on Irakin sodassa taistellut nuorukainen, jolla on vaikeuksia sopeutua takaisin siviiliin. Russell yrittää pelastaa veljensä huonoilta teiltä, mutta turhaan.

Kun traaginen onnettomuus erottaa Russellin perheestään useaksi vuodeksi, huomaa hän palattuaan, että asiat ovat entistä huonommin. Lena on valinnut toisen miehen ja Rodney kadonnut jäljettömiin sekaannuttuaan laittomiin nyrkkeilyotteluihin. Otteluiden järjestäjä on Appalakien vuorilla rikollisjenginsä kanssa asuva Harlan, joka on osavaltion pelätyin mies. Koska poliisi ei pysty tai halua löytää Rodneya, ryhtyy Russell jäljittämään veljeään omin päin.

Oscar-palkitun elokuvantekijä Michael Mooren uusi dokumentti kysyy - huumorilla ja rohkeasti - mikä on hinta, jonka Amerikka maksaa rakkaudestaan kapitalismiin? Vuosia sitten, rakkaussuhde vaikutti niin viattomalta. Tänään amerikkalainen unelma näyttää kuitenkin ennemminkin painajaisunelta, sen hinnan maksavat tavalliset perheet työpaikoillaan, kodeillaan ja säästöillään. Moore vie katsojan koteihin, joissa elämä on kääntynyt ylösalaisin ja etsii selityksiä mm. Washingtonista. Hän löytää liiankin tuttuja merkkejä rakkaussuhteesta, joka on mennyt pahalla tavalla pieleen: valheita, hyväksikäyttöä, petoksia...

Directed in 1980 and released in 2013. On the issue of addiction in Iran in the 1980s. Mohsen's father is going to pass away soon due to an illness, however, Mohsen himself has been missing for 6 months. A BSc medicine student, he has become a drug addict and lost himself in the slums. Setting out to help him out of his conditions, and deliver his mother's care to him, his father starts searching for him. The movie is embedded in the social conditions of the 70s AD Iran, has a 70s Iranian chivalric tincture, religious color-as was the climate of the Iranian society at the time- and is blended with historic state propaganda. For the audience of that time, this movie would have received a fair score, as it touches on religious notions. However, the issue it addresses is far more complicated and sophisticated at this age, and its propaganda outlook can no longer attract significant commercial or critical attention.

Ziba and three of her prison cohorts, recently released from a Tehran prison, settle in an out of town doctor's house posing as house sitters and embark on a get rich quick scheme. They plan to mug the lecherous men who give a ride to ladies waiting at street sides for a pickup, which was- and is, to some extent, now- how some prostitutes found work back in the time in Iran. The film portrays the characters as well as the social origins of these men, and as it progresses, explores the backgrounds of these women.

As obesity progresses inexorably, Sylvie Gilman and Thierry de Lestrade investigate the causes of this planetary plague and reveal the fight waged in certain countries to stem it.
