Trailer for the documentary All That Glitters. For more than ten years Nurbek has been working in the Kumtor gold mine, the largest in Kyrgyzstan, one of the countries of the ex-Soviet Union, now an independent republic. The mine belongs to a large Canadian company and in 1998 it was at the centre of a serious environmental disaster, the spillage of nearly two tonnes of sodium cyanide in the river running through the village. While following the protagonist in his everyday life, we discover the reality of Kyrgyzstan, a country that lies at the centre of global interests, divided between a past that will not return - traces of which are still evident - and a present where an uncertain democracy is asserting itself and capitalism is primitive. But what are - if there are any - the differences between the past and present? The director Tom Kudrna goes on a journey to the heart of a country rife with contradictions, and fascinating for this reason; a documentary investigation sui generis, the director reconstructs pieces of history directly in the field, with an ironic and at the same time emphatic outlook and a light, often amused tone.

Trailer for the documentary Taking a Chance on God. Taking A Chance On God chronicles the extraordinary life and legacy of 85 year old John McNeill, gay Catholic priest, founder of the LGBT spiritual movement, and pioneering voice of gay liberation. Refusing to betray his own conscience, McNeill stood up to the man who became Pope Benedict XVI and would not be silenced. The Film depicts McNeill's remarkable journey: growing up in Buffalo, escaping death as a POW in Nazi Germany, falling in love with his husband, writing groundbreaking books, coming out on national television, calling for compassion and justice during the AIDS crisis, and celebrating the unique spiritual gifts of LGBT people. Theologians, journalists, activists, and LGBT religious figures, including openly gay Episcopal Bishop Gene Robinson, movingly testify to McNeill's influence and importance.
