Uzi Brothers Two brothers together with a mission armed with the most deadliest weapon of them all, "Uzi," to uphold law and justice at all cost!

Being Women in Japan: Li... Being Women in Japan documents the recovery of Michishita’s sister from brain surgery, which hospitalized her for four months. Michishita's interest was not only in the personal struggle of her sister to regain her health, but also in how this crisis caused a major rupture in the daily life of her sister's family.

Friends of Minamata Vict... Created for the first Japanese exhibition dedicated to video art, Video Communication: Do-It-Yourself-Kit, this work documents protests outside the Chisso Corporation headquarters in central Tokyo. Hazardous byproducts from the company’s chemical plants had caused severe mercury poisoning—and, consequently, a neurological disease—in Minamata’s livestock and inhabitants. Nakaya filmed the sit-in with a handheld video camera and installed a battery-powered television monitor on-site, allowing the demonstrators to watch themselves by playing back the recordings of their actions.

Anoche so con un fantasm... Raúl is seriously ill with COVID-19 in the hospital. His sisters wait at home for a call that will give them news about his state of health.

The Wife Back in the early 1980s, the state of Indonesia launched "Operation Petrus"—a covert operation where the apparatus conducted extra-judicial killing in the name of public safety. In reality, it functioned more as a method of state-sanctioned terror, and tattooed men, usually perceived as "freelance-thugs", were targeted indiscriminately. During one such incident, a woman named Marni tries her best to protect her husband, who has done no wrong.

Three Outs! One summer day in her second year of high school, Aki sees her school's boys' baseball team playing in the Koshien (the National High School Baseball Championship), and unable to stand still, she sets her mind to start her own club. One day, Samejima, who used to play for the Japan University of Physical Education's women's softball team, comes to the school as a physical education teacher, and Aki goes to ask her to become the coach of the baseball team...

Elemental: Reimagine Wil... "Elemental" takes viewers on a journey with the top experts in the nation to better understand fire. We follow the harrowing escape from Paradise as the town ignited from wind-driven embers and burned within a few hours of the fire's start. We visit fire labs where researchers torch entire houses to learn why some homes burn and others survive. We learn from Native Americans as they employ fire to benefit nature and increase community safety as they have for thousands of years. We follow researchers who work to understand the effects of climate on forests and the crucial role that natural forests play in storing vast amounts of carbon. Along the way we listen to people who have survived the deadliest fires to underscore the importance of this quest.

The Bomb with a Man in H... In an impressionistic rush that combines patina-marked images of shoes made by hand with the attributes of a genre film, Rivers returns to a favorite topic: objects as the bearers of their history. Shots of the cobbler at work highlight the handcrafting process, yet entirely without indicating the need for perfection. In general, purposefulness and the absence of fantasy are unlike Rivers. Ambiguity is thus waiting in the wings, in this case references to genre movies, exemplified in part by image distortion reminiscent of an old horror movie.

Speed Queen A shy young man summons the courage to approach the unapproachably handsome guy at the bar to surprising results.
