Justice

Justice


Rated: NONE
The vast slums of Rio, the favelas, are notorious breeding grounds for some of the world's worst violence and crime. "Justice" takes a fly-on-the-wall look at the criminal court that regularly tries drug and gun dealers, car thieves and petty criminals of every stripe, many of them teenagers. Then the camera follows the defendants, the prosecutors and the judges home. How does justice play out in a society in which one group lives in middle-class comfort and the other in unremitting squalor? Recording these economic imbalances with a calm and thoughtful eye, the filmmaker eschews testimony by experts, and instead lets viewers draw their own conclusions.

Requiem

Requiem


Rated: NONE
A small town in the 1970s in southern Germany. Michaela, 21, has grown up in a deeply religious family, with a kind but weak father and a cold-hearted, distant mother. Despite her years-long battle with epilepsy, Michaela burns to leave home and study at the university. There, her first taste of freedom, her budding love for Stefan and her friendship with Hanna crack open the shell of faith and family within which she had always felt secure and protected. The result is a breakdown. Not a normal epileptic attack, but a frightening onrush of grotesque faces and voices. Afraid of being sent back home to her family, Michaela seeks help from a priest who reinforces her conviction that she is possessed. Though Stefan and Hanna entreat her to seek psychiatric help, they are unable to break through the dense religious and moral ties binding Michaela to her family, and leave her to her fate...

Jonestown: The Life and Death of the Peoples Temple


Rated: NONE
On November 18, 1978, over 900 members of Peoples Temple died in the largest mass suicide/murder in history. What drew so many people across racial and class lines to the Peoples Temple? How could a diverse group of 900 people be convinced to commit suicide? What was a California congregation doing in the jungles of Guyana? And who was Jim Jones to command such loyalty that parents would murder their own children? Using never before seen archival footage and survivor interviews, "Jonestown: The Life and Death of Peoples Temple" tells the story of the people who followed Jim Jones from Indiana, to California, and finally to the remote jungles of Guyana, South America, in a misbegotten quest to build an ideal society and rid the world of injustice.

The Curiosity of Chance

The Curiosity of Chance


Rated: NONE
An already 'out' and eccentric teenager recruits a bizarre circle of friends - made up of two oddball outcasts, a straight jock he's crushing on and a drag queen - to help him bring down the homophobic bully threatening his would-be peaceful, high-school existence. Combine teen angst, 80's style and music with the flare of drag queens -- and what do you get? "The Curiosity of Chance." It's like a John Hughes film that couldn't be made in the 80's.
