Like most children of famous people, Bobbi Kristina Brown grew up in the spotlight, very often on stage and walking the red carpet with her parents Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown. To most, she was simply 'Whitney's and Bobby's daughter,' the little girl behind the scenes with no identity beyond the image attached to her by the media and the public. But the untold story of Bobbi Kristina Brown is one of adventure, dreams, conflict, perseverance, faith, friendship, and love--a love between mother and daughter. A love often interrupted by success, emotional upheaval, and drug addiction, but an unshakable, incomparable, unwavering love nonetheless. Our story begins immediately after Whitney's (Demetria McKinney) death and takes us into Krissi's struggle to come to terms with her mother's death and her own life.

Though a famous matador eventually felled the mighty beast, El Toron's story of blood, blades and freedom has become legend. Born and bred for his aggression, the once wild and true native Spanish bull bloodline found in El Toro'n lives on today in his offspring, who still battle merciless matadors in bull fighting arenas throughout Mexico. In a strange paradox, this ferocious bloodline can also be found in the tranquil mountain regions of the interior where direct descendants of EL Toron now roam in wild herds. News of El Toron's death caused such a distraction that the ranch hands left the herd unattended. The bulls escaped from captivity in the late 1930's only to re- establish themselves as the feral, free and majestic creatures they were created to be. His story of blood, blades and freedom will now be told!

Exodus Decoded is a documentary created by Jewish Canadian filmmaker Simcha Jacobovici, in which new evidence in favor of the historicity of the Biblical Exodus is explored. It is partially narrated by film director James Cameron. Jacobovici suggests that the Exodus took place around 1500 BCE during the reign of pharaoh Ahmose I, and coincided with the eruption of Santorini that most scholars believe ended the Minoan civilization. In the documentary, the plagues that ravished Egypt in the Bible are explained as having resulted from that volcanic eruption, and a related collapse in the Nile river delta. While much of Jacobovici's archaeological evidence for the Exodus comes from Egypt, a surprising quantity comes from Mycenae, on mainland Greece.
