Witness some of history's most baffling, puzzling and perplexing mysteries on our planet, as we look back at the most influential UFO sightings in history... from the Battle of LA, to the infamous Rendlesham Forest Incident. As we question the unquestionable facts, and explain the unexplainable. Blurring the lines between science fiction and reality. Are we alone? Whichever way we answer the fundamental question... as a species we remain in the shadows. All alone, drifting through the empty vacuum of space in an ever expanding lonely universe. Or, we are left fearful... in the dark of the unknown. As 5% of unexplainable flying object sightings suggest, extra terrestrial beings, advanced and powerful enough to traverse the cosmos may already be within our atmosphere. The idea has permeated through our science fiction and popular cultures for decades, pushing ufology through an age of ridicule and entertainment. Sightings of unidentifiable lights in the sky date back as far as ancient Egypt, where fiery disks were seen floating across the sky. As technology progressed through the ages, our understanding expanded. Most sightings can be explained away as lights from aerial vehicles, lighthouses, airports, and bizarre or common natural phenomena. A small fraction... remains unidentified. This small fraction leaves humanity with an unanswered question, which questions the very fabric of existence as we know it. Challenging our own understanding and perception of the order of the cosmos. Conspiracies built on secretive government cover ups, and creative hoaxes has sent Ufology into the realm of disbelief. Forget your biased beliefs, and confront your fundamental understanding.

The vinyl record renaissance over the past decade has brought new fans to a classic format and transformed our idea of a record collector: younger, both male and female, multicultural. This same revival has made buying music more expensive, benefited established bands over independent artists and muddled the question of whether vinyl actually sounds better than other formats. Vinyl Nation digs into the crates of the record resurgence in search of truths set in deep wax: Has the return of vinyl made music fandom more inclusive or divided? What does vinyl say about our past here in the present? How has the second life of vinyl changed how we hear music and how we listen to each other?

In the fall of 1874 a New York journalist Henry Olcott decided to take a trip to Vermont. He wants to investigate the mysterious apparitions of the ghostly spirits in a remote Vermont homestead. On the train he meets a peculiar woman, who calls herself Madame Blavatsky. Madame is also going to Vermont, and claims to be a messenger of the Great Mahatmas of Tibet and a member of the The Hermetic Brotherhood of Luxor. Because in the 19th century Tibet was closed to the European and American visitors, and The Hermetic Brotherhood of Luxor was still a secret organization, Madam's revelations sound especially interesting. Madame Blavatsky tells Henry that the connection with the Great Mahatmas of Tibet allowed her to obtain some supernatural powers.

She has made over 280 overseas state visits to other countries, and her Commonwealth of nations. She has unveiled countless plaques and cut too many ribbons to remember.

South African filmmaker Jo Menell is most well-known for the cult feminist classic, Dick (1989), which featured 1000 penises accompanied by an audio commentary from women. The nature of that film, however, belies a rich career in film and journalism that spans the Vietnam War, the Allende government in Chile, the emergence of gay rights in San Francisco, a 1981 Bob Marley documentary, an Oscar nominated film about Nelson Mandela (1997), and the Street Talk television series, as well as close relationships with key figures from the 20th Century. Born into a life of privilege, Menell had progressive political inclinations and soon left apartheid South Africa for Britain where he was schooled in the ways and connections of the British ruling class. The film chronicles his amazingly rich and varied life using archival footage alongside a series of interviews conducted with Menell while his portrait was being painted by Cape Town artist Beezy Bailey.
