First Orbit是一部纪念加加林的首次太空飞行的实验影片,于2011年4月12日,也是人类首次太空飞行五十周年纪念日那天,在youtube上发行。为了拍摄这部影片,国际空间站变更了自己的轨道,使之与五十年前加加林乘坐的东方一号的轨道尽可能重合,从而使空间站上的摄影师有机会用自己的摄影机重现了五十年前加加林在太空中看到的世界。导演将这次壮观的重现与俄罗斯档案中保存的真实影像资料进行拼接,最终制成了这部105分钟的纪录片。在youtube上发行二十四小时内就有一百三十万人在线观看了这部纪录片,发行四十八小时后观影人数更是达到了二百三十万。除在线公映之外,4月12日当天这部影片还在75个国家的超过1000块荧幕上进行了公映。公映地点包括巴黎的联合国教科文组织总部、西雅图的波音总部、慕尼黑附近的欧洲空间局哥伦布控制中心等。

The Girl Who Talked to Dolphins
director: Christopher Riley actor: Margaret Howe Lovatt
other title: 跟海豚说话的女孩
This is the story of the most extraordinary and audacious experiment in the history of animal science. It was carried out by visionary 1960s neuroscientist John Lilly, who had a remarkable ambition; to communicate with dolphins by teaching them to speak English. The experiment was seized upon by NASA, who were embarking on the first serious search for extra-terrestrial intelligence beyond the Earth. When they detected a signal from ET, they would need to understand how to communicate with a species other than humans. Here, without leaving the planet, was the opportunity to practice such inter-species communication. But what started with ‘60s idealism would spiral into the darkness of the decade, and end in tragedy, with rumours and scandal about drug abuse and a sexual relationship between Peter and Margaret. Fifty years on, this film tells the real story of just what happened at the Dolphin House.
