At the gates of the Vercors, the inhabitants of Saint-Nazaire-en-Royans discovered that a massive rock quarry wanted to set up on the small mountain overlooking their village, Mount Vanille. Stunned by the gigantic scale of the project and feeling betrayed by the elected officials, the village mobilized. There will be work, energy, disappointments. And there will be a victory. Each one taking part in his own way in the destiny of his village, it is a new political landscape which takes shape. Shaking up the well-oiled wheels of a system, this struggle tells of the very contemporary urgency to finally get involved in what concerns us.

9/11: Stories in Fragments
How do you grasp an event as enormous as September 11? At the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History, you start small: A briefcase, a Blackberry, a victim's sweatshirt, and a hero's nametag. Simple objects that tell personal stories, recounted in the donors' own words. Stories from New York, the Pentagon and Shanksville, PA remind us that the legacy of 9/11 is not fear -- it's friendship, courage, and ordinary people pushed by extraordinary circumstances.
