Deep Throat (The Original) Newly Restored Print!! Featrures bonus documentary
footage following the film.
Generally considered the most profitable motion picture of all
time, the 1972 adult film Deep Throat was more than a titillating curiosity
and a huge moneymaker. Released at the very moment when the national
hunger for sexual liberation, equal rights and counter-cultural values
were reaching
a fever pitch, this sexually explicit film unexpectedly became the flashpoint
for an unprecedented social and political firestorm. A major cultural
phenomenon whose impact continues to affect us today. With Linda Lovelace,
Harry Reems, Dolly Sharp.

India,
1997
Eilona Ariel and
Ayelet Menahemi
35mm, 52 minutes
This is the story of an ancient meditation technique named Vipassana,
which shows people how to take control of their lives and channel them
toward their own good.It is the story of a strong woman named Kiran
Bedi, the former Inspector General of Prisons in New Delhi, who strove
to transform the notorious Tihar Prison and turn it into an oasis of
peace. But most of all it is the story of prison inmates who underwent
profound change, and who realized that incarceration is not the end
but possibly a fresh start toward an improved and more positive life.
These people have shown that reform can work if it is self-reform. Their
success has been so dramatic that recently the Indian Government decided
to apply Vipassana in all the country's prisons. Other countries are
becoming interested as well. The filmmakers spent about
two weeks inside Tihar Central Prison in New Delhi and Baroda Jail in
the Indian state of Gujarat. They interviewed inmates and jail officials,
and
filmed in places rarely accessible to film crews, whether Indian or
foreign.
A ZEN TALE
The Netherlands, 2000
Magdalena Sole
35mm, 11 minutes
A ZEN TALE is based on an ancient tale of perceived reality, a tale
of how difficult it is to communicate with one another across more than
language barriers. This short is a wonderful live-action lesson of how
we can go own living our lives under the strangest mis-interpretations.
A ZEN TALE is
lesson in philosophy that uses film to teach us that communication is
beyond
perception and what you see is not always what you get.

by three criminals in a van. Lead by the beautiful Jessie (Playboy

"Ron's art is an antidote to the poison in our culture."
--Lilly Hatch
NY Arts Magazine
Bombarded by relentless advertising in a growing culture of junk, one
man activist/artist Ron English dares to hijack corporate advertising,
challenging us to change the sham of reality they've created and reminding
us that free speech still lives.
Bringing his messages to the masses through billboards and other forms
of outdoor marketing, Ron takes traditional advertising hostage, subverting
familiar images and words into confrontational art. Whether attacking
a popular fast food chain with a manipulated image of its popular icon
emblazed with the words Phat Food, or taking on a tobacco giant and
simply covering their logo with the word breathe, Ron implores us to
re-evaluate what we see and succumb to it no more.
Infused with Ron's infectious passion, THE ART & CRIMES OF RON ENGLISH
is an engaging thrill ride into the life and art of the billboard bandit
that will inspire and activate.
