A young Yorkshire boy struggles to come to grips with squabbling parents, a doctor who wants to institutionalize him because of his epilepsy, and a mother who refuses to accept that he is different in any way – and that is only the half of it. The boy, Tim, also acts as a go-between for his friend Carns, who is having an affair with a married woman. Eventually, things start to sort themselves out, and Tim sees life getting more interesting when he and his friend Win slowly get a relationship going.

After Tom Hurndall is shot in the head in Gaza, his parents Anthony and Jocelyn arrive in Israel wanting to know how it could have happened. They expect sympathy and cooperation from the Israeli authorities, but are instead met with an official explanation that fails to tally with any eye-witness accounts, and a wall of silence. When an Israeli army report attempts to whitewash the incident, the Hurndalls decide the only way to establish the truth is to launch their own investigation into the shooting, a process which brings them face to face with both the Open-Fire regulations of the Israeli army in Gaza, and the soldier who pulled the trigger.

A reclusive author is visited by a young admirer - but both men are more than they claim to be.

Entirely silent, with a musical score, sound effects and incoherent mutterings, the story revolves around a weekend gathering at the decaying country home of the eccentric and lewd General Futtock (Ronnie Barker) and the series of saucy mishaps between the staff (Michael Hordern plays the lecherous butler) and his guests.

Party Animals presents Westminster from the ground up – the young researchers and advisors shouldering huge responsibility in a frantic, high-stakes world. It's no wonder their personal lives are so messy. Sons of an ex-Labour MP, Scott and Danny Foster have politics in their blood.

This video is excellent, if not only for the fact that documenting anything that has happened in Turkey is a giant step. The Turkish state has been notorious (as in most states) for keeping information internal and tightly controlling information. IN the case of the military COUPS, even more so because of CIA/US controls and strategies regarding Turkey.
This film has helped in opening discussions regarding Turkey with my Turkish and Kurdish friends in the US. Many, of course, have been fed historical events through the Turkish state-controlled news media and television, or by their local leadership who have political positions that may necessitate keeping multiple perspectives out of what is told.
This video has been great for my Turkish and Kurdish friends, also, because they see the faces and expressions and hear the touching stories of the politicians, activists, and journalists, who they have only heard about through others in a one-sided way. This video also interviews these people away from the glaring Turkish government eyes, so there is a 'humanity' that they have never seen. This adds to the tenor of how my friends see the video.
Of course, if one just wants to be 'right' then nobody changes their mind to mature. But most of my Turkish and Kurdish friends were somewhat disturbed and later reflective and maturing in thought regarding their country's history.
I am so glad this video was made. It is a rarity. Underneath what information the US and Turkish governments want the public to know, is the small pictures of complex events that give new light to history--which always should teach us to improve ourselves.
