Peaks and Valleys is a feature-length documentary following Nick Noble and Rebecca Beitner in their directorial debuts as they navigate the highs and lows of Type 1 Diabetes and the Vancouver Island Trail (VIT), in the traditional territory of the Coast Salish, Nuu-Chah-Nulth, and Kwakwaka'wakw people. The VIT is a new trail, and Nick and Becca are among the first hikers to attempt to hike the route in one six-week trip. The story of Nick's experience with diabetes throughout his life is interwoven with the challenges of managing it in a backcountry environment, bringing information and insight about a chronic health condition that is reasonably common yet misunderstood by many people. The mountains, forests, and coastlines of Vancouver Island are brought to life by original art, animation, and photography by the filmmakers, both of whom are multidisciplinary visual artists. Peaks and Valleys will appeal to lovers of nature, adventure, art, and disability justice.
This 1985 Spanish film reveals one of the many terrible aspects of 16th century Spain, still plagued by the radical Christian Inquisition, one of a plethora of difficulties Spaniards faced at the time. Spanish super star Carmen Maura plays a nun who agrees to a selfless scam, a fake stigmata, only to avoid separation from her lover, another nun. It's a serious and passionate work, highlighting the theme of outspoken women-against-repression, seen in other good gay and lesbian films. This is not a lesbian "Nun sense" or another "Dark Habits" (by Almodovar, which also starred Carmen Maura, and also set in a Spanish convent, with some lesbian nuns). Perhaps, best of all, 'Extramuros' is realistic and frank. It isn't shy about its characters' sexuality. Their sexuality, and the film as a whole are genuine.

Joshua Tickell berichtet über die Missstände bei der amerikanischen Petroliumdistribution. Seit Jahrzehnten kontrollieren die monopolistischen Öl-Firmen den Markt. Als Verbraucher fühlt man sich oft gezwungen, den teuren Treibstoff zu kaufen, denn gerade in den Vereinigten Staaten sind öffentliche Verkehrsmittel vielerorts nur rudimentär ausgebildet. Tickell zeigt, dass es bereits seit über 20 Jahren Treibstoffalternativen gibt, mit deren Hilfe das Monopol des Öls aufgehoben werden kann. Wenn sich nur genug Menschen beteiligen, steht eine Überdenkung moderner Fortbewegungsmethoden bevor, durch die die typische Tankstelle bald ganz anders aussehen könnte...
