IMDB 8 | Jan , 1990
Through a secret program called the Counter Intelligence Program (COINTELPRO), there was a concerted effort to subvert the will of the people to avoid the rise "of a Black Messiah" that would mobilize the African-American community into a meaningful political force. This documentary establishes historical perspective on the measures initiated by J. Edgar Hoover and the FBI which aimed to discredit black political figures and forces of the late 1960's and early 1970's. Combining declassified documents, interviews, rare footage and exhaustive research, it investigates the government's role in the assassinations of Malcolm X, Fred Hampton, and Martin Luther King Jr. Were the murders the result of this concerted effort to avoid "a Black Messiah"?Luther: The Life and Legacy of the German Reformer

Experience the lives and surroundings of a few São Paulo punks, the fierce Brazilian birthplace of this global culture of dissent. In a country with a well-known non-rock musical tradition, where corruption is cultural and violence is routine - Punk brought a cathartic expression more akin to urban realities. As a working class movement that started under the violent grip of Brazilian dictatorship, this is do-it-yourself at its most creative, and a celebratory means of resistance.Muhammad Ali, the Greatest

IMDB 0 | Jan , 1993
The modern hero, able to travel, to arrive, to gaze, to move on, to be anonymous, to be in a liminal zone. The strolling flâneur was the forerunner of the twentieth-century tourist and in particular of the activity which has in a way become emblematic of the tourist: the democratised taking of photographs - of being seen and recorded and seeing others and recording them. The brain is a book - the eye is a camera. Consciousness is going on a trip - a travel into the cities, the heart of ancient Europe and culture - Florence. The human body has to rest. But the brain is corresponding, and the eye is recording. A requiem in slow motion.High School Musical 3: Making Of A Musical
