Alien Contact: UFO Invaders

1 hr 10 mins

"Across the world, millions of people have witnessed massive UFOs in our skies. They have not only seen the Alien craft, but have experienced a phenomenon that utterly defies our current understanding of science and physics. The fact is there have been dozens, possibly hundreds of UFO's that have crashed on Planet Earth. Mankind has witnessed these crashes, communicated with the visitors, even left our planet with them once they are able to return to their world. But the most shocking revelation of all is the reason why they come. In the modern age, government and military factions move quickly to take over the crash area; remove all evidence large and small; threaten local authorities and eyewitnesses to never speak a word under the name of national security; then release a plausible cover story like a well-oiled machine. They recover technology so advanced that even though it has transformed our world, much of it is still beyond their grasp. They also recover corpses and on several occasions live Alien beings, often referred to as extraterrestrial biological entities or EBE's. Secretive military and black operations teams know WHY the UFOs are here. We the people however are constantly redirected by endless forms of information technology that serves as the supreme distraction. Why, because there is a war out there in outer space, a war that has been raging for centuries. SHORT - There have been hundreds of UFO's that have crashed on Planet Earth.

Nise: The Heart of Madness

1 hr 46 mins

A miracle happened in Brazil on the 1950's. Renowned modern art museums opened their doors to artists nobody ever heard of. Many critics pointed out that theses exhibitions revealed painters that should be ranked amongst the best brazillian artists of the century. It was written that this explosion of art and beauty was a sign that something comparable to the renaissance was happening in Riio de Janeiro. Behind this miracle there was no art academy, patron or dealer, only a psychiatrist, ridiculed by her colleagues, and a painting studio at a mental hospital, in the outskirts of town. The artists were schizophrenic, poor, hospitalized for several decades, abandoned by their families and hopeless according to their doctors. This film tells the story of this "Miracle" and the life of this rebellious, frail and engaging psychiatrist: Dra. Nise da Silveira.

The Brainwashing of My Dad

1 hr 30 mins

Jen Senko, a documentary filmmaker, looks at the rise of right-wing media through the lens of her WWII vet father who changed from a life-long, nonpolitical Democrat to an angry, right-wing fanatic after his discovery of talk radio on a lengthened commute to work. In trying to understand how this happened, she not only finds this to be a phenomenon, but also uncovers some of the forces behind it: a plan by Roger Ailes under Nixon to create a media for the GOP; the Lewis Powell Memo, urging business leaders to influence institutions of public opinion - especially the universities - the media and the courts; and under Reagan, the dismantling of the Fairness Doctrine - all of which helped to change the entire country's direction and culture, misinformed millions, divided families and even the country itself.

Adolf Hitler: Pure Evil

1 hr 10 mins

There have been many evil men in the history of the world including serial killers, rapists and mass murderers - but none of them as extreme and as monstrous as Adolf Hitler. He dominated the hearts and minds of the German nation and catapulted them into infamous world history. When Hitler rallied the nation, his oratory was so spellbinding and powerful that many claimed he was possessed. When he lifted the spear of destiny he knew that he held the course of human history in his hands. Occultists claimed that Hitler was possessed by the ancient god Moloch and prophesied that he would bring destruction on a massive scale. The Bible said the Anti-Christ would rule for seven years, that he would appear to be ordinary and could be lost in a crowd. No wonder so many pointed the finger at Hitler as the embodiment of the Anti-Christ. New research reveals that the Nazi party went headlong into the abyss of the Occult and was engulfed in the most evil energy in the universe.
