By now most of us probably think we've seen and heard enough about the events of the 11th September 2001, it has rarely been out of the news and many of us watched the tragedy unfold live on our television screens. That said, this documentary is unique in it's access to the attack on the World Trade Centres. That day, two brothers, Jules and Gedeon Naudet were filming a documentary about a rookie firefighter in a New York firestation located close to what we know now of as 'ground zero', they we find out more...

The incredible story of the irrepressible Dieter Dengler, a German born pilot in the U.S. navy who was shot down, captured, tortured and interred in a POW camp during the beginning of the Vietnam war. One of the few American prisoners to escape such captivity, Dengler accompanies Werner Herzog to Laos to recreate his remarkable story in this fascinating documentary that manages through Herzog's inimitable style and Dengler's preternatural optimism and humour to transcend it's unsettling subje find out more...

‘Fast, Fair and Balanced'. So the FOX News credo goes. This compelling (if slightly overcooked) documentary about the systematic bias inherent in Murdoch's Neo-Conservative news channel is a must see to anyone with a passing interest in how They take Their news over There. From explaining how FOX's misinformation led to a massive percentage of its viewers believing there was a proven link between Iraq and Al Quaeda to a sensational interview with the belligerent Bill O'Reilly chastising the son find out more...

The follow-up to the astounding ‘Paradise Lost’. More and more, especially forensic, evidence comes to light that the non-existent case against the 3 is just that. Much of the film focuses on the prime alternative suspect, the step-father of one of the murdered children, a dangerously barking Church-going redneck, but the rightwing local state bureaucracy don't want to know, they've already got their man (sorry children). Damien, Jason and Jessie have matured visibly in prison, with Damien perha find out more...

TIn 1993 the naked and mutilated bodies of three 8-year-old boys where found in a shallow creek near the sleepy redneck Arkansas town of Robin Hood Hills. The ensuing police investigation soon focused on three local teens who dressed in black, had vaguely non-Christian beliefs and enjoyed heavy metal music. A rushed investigation and the pitiful court case that followed were all filmed with unprecedented access by a HBO documentary crew who came to believe that the three suspects were victims of find out more...

An investigative documentary by Shane O'Sullivan that examines the events of that fateful night in 1968 and presents compelling theories that suggest the killer, Sirhan Sirhan, was not working alone. The problem with O'Sullivan's case is that though the motives to kill Robert Kennedy were strong amongst the right-wing Cuban (anti-Castro) clique who'd infiltrated the CIA, and the gringo militaristic clique who ran them, the evidence presented is, though not unconvincing, circumstantial and would find out more...

Joe Simpson, the climber whose tenacious, indeed, superhuman will to survive was the subject of ‘Touching the Void' tells the story of one of mountaineering's most epic tragedies; that of Toni Kurtz, a brilliant young climber, who, along with partner Andreas Hinterstoisser and two Austrian climbers, attempted an ascent of the then unclimbed Eiger's North Face in 1936. Like ‘Touching the Void', 'The Beckoning Silence' is a haunting combination of retrospective monologue and grippingly real dramat find out more...

Joe Simpson and Simon Yates were two mates who shared the same passion, unassisted extreme climbing, and on the west face of Siula Grande, Peru, they found the ultimate test for their skill and endurance. The ascent was not without incident but it was the return to base camp that went horribly wrong, leaving one of the men facing a seemingly impossible journey to salvation. Touching the Void, a mixture of top class dramatic reconstruction and talking head documentary, is based on Joe Simpson's b find out more...
