From ordinary mounted warriors to the legendary figures who came to embody courage, honour and chivalry, medieval knights dominated European life for centuries. Through dramatic reconstructions, historical experiments and surviving evidence, this series reveals the harsh reality behind the romantic image: brutal battles and personal feuds, swordsmanship and tournaments, the construction and defense of castles, courtly love and the strict codes of honour that could turn an insult into a fight to the death. It also follows knights to the Holy Land, where crusaders risked everything in pursuit of glory, wealth and salvation, while figures such as John of Bohemia and Joan of Arc show how courage and legend became inseparable from the medieval warrior. Presented here as all three episodes consecutively in a single video, the complete story also reveals how the world that created the knight eventually destroyed him. The rise of robber knights such as Götz von Berlichingen, the spread of mercenary warfare and increasingly spectacular tournaments mark the final years of an old order, while longbows, cannon, artillery and massed infantry transform the battlefield forever. Emperor Maximilian, celebrated as the “Last of the Knights,” embraces these new weapons even as he glorifies the traditions of chivalry. By the end, the armoured horseman who had ruled castles, battlefields and entire communities for centuries has become obsolete in war—but immortal in legend.
A powerful investigative documentary that follows the growing wave of protests, arrests, and confrontations triggered by federal immigration raids across the United States. Through tense firsthand footage, courtroom revelations, and testimonies from protesters, lawyers, journalists, and federal officials, the film traces how demonstrations in cities like Los Angeles, Chicago, and Minneapolis spiraled into violent clashes, sweeping arrests, and accusations of extremism. As cases begin collapsing under legal scrutiny, disturbing questions emerge about the methods used during the crackdown, the reliability of official narratives, and the true cost of suppressing dissent. Blending investigative journalism with chaotic street-level reality, the documentary creates an atmosphere of mounting tension and uncertainty as ordinary citizens suddenly find themselves caught between protest movements, aggressive law enforcement tactics, and a deeply divided political climate. What begins as a story about immigration enforcement gradually becomes a gripping portrait of fear, resistance, civil liberties, and the fragile line separating public order from political intimidation.

(Click CC for subtitles) Ranjit, a farmer in India, takes on the fight of his life when he demands justice for his 13-year-old daughter, the victim of a brutal gang rape. His decision to support his daughter is virtually unheard of, and his journey unprecedented. Nominated for Best Documentary Award, the film has an undeniable and unshakable power. It is one of those documentaries where anyone who watches it won’t be the same person by the end as they were when it started. To Kill a Tiger offers the viewer remarkable access to village life, not just in the modest home where Ranjit’s family make roti on an open fire, but in the fields where they herd goats and collect water from a pump. The camera finds quiet details, like Ranjit’s daughter carefully weaving ribbons into her hair. Women and men insist that the community, not the criminal court, should solve the issue with a forced marriage—to remove the ‘stain on her’. The men become increasingly hostile—to the family, and eventually to the film crew itself.
P.U.L.S.E is a Pink Floyd concert video taken from the 20 October 1994 concert at Earls Court, London. PULSE records the great psychedelic band Pink Floyd rocking out like only they can. Renowned for their hallucinatory special effects and lighting schemes, Pink Floyd goes all out at this spectacular (and very long) concert. Twenty-one of their classics are performed, including classic rock radio staples 'Dark Side of The Moon' and 'Wish You were Here". There was considerable delay in the release of the video edition of Pulse. The cause of the delays was reputed to be the continued modifications and additions to produce a high-quality release. The previous planned release date of 22 September 2005 for the two-disc DVD set was changed to 10 July 2006 for the UK and Europe, and 11 July 2006 everywhere else.
