It was a horrific event that changed the world in a millisecond. The dropping of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima ushered in a new age of imminent peril in which the civilized world stood (and continues to stand) on the brink of extinction. Director Martin Duckworth's powerful documentary chronicles some of the stories of survivors of the blast. Their touching narratives testify to the need for vigilance that such an abomination never happens again.
Jan Švankmajer: The Complete Short Films
Featuring all 26 entries in the official filmography, this is the world's first complete DVD edition of the short films by the legendary Czech Surrealist filmmaker-animator Jan Švankmajer. Technically and conceptually astonishing in their own right, these films are also as remarkable for their philosophical consistency as for their frequently mind-boggling imagery. This package also includes a bonus short, Johanes Doktor Faust (1958), the longer cut of 'The Cabinet of Jan Švankmajer' with a new introduction by the Quay Brothers, the documentary Les Chimeres des Švankmajer (2001), interviews with Jan and Eva Švankmajer and examples of their work in other media. There's also a chance to see some Švankmajer special effects, created when he was banned from directing his own films.
