Scratches of the Soul

Perhaps the richest collection of Macedonian musical heritage is carefully preserved, digitized and archived in the home of the Endendijk family in Sust, the Netherlands. The rich musical collection, collected throughout their lives, is the legacy that the Dutch couple plans to pass on to someone in Macedonia. For years, they have been living with the dilemma of whether there is an appropriate institution to take care of this heritage, given that historical archives are not properly preserved and some are lost forever. The film follows one family's struggle to preserve a part of Macedonian history.

Do Nothing and Do It Well

Do Nothing and Do It Well is a documentary that reveals the neglected true story of the militant Chinese workers who rocked the streets of Melbourne at the turn of the 20th Century. Behind a raging soundtrack of furious Cantonese punk and hip-hop, the film weaves together newspaper clippings, the film-maker's family history and a fictionalised dead narrator, to present a sprawling new portrait of Melbourne. Addressing ongoing questions of race, class and the Australian labour movement, Do Nothing and Do It Well plants a flag of defiance and struggle in the streets.

Why Women Are The Unequal Victims Of Kashmir's Lockdown

Best Little Fishing Secret in the Gulf: Venice, Louisiana

Join us as head into the heart of the Louisiana bayou going to the most southeastern tip of Louisiana where the Mississippi River flows into the Gulf of Mexico.

From fishing the shallows for record setting redfish and tarpon, to running outside to the rigs and fishing for tuna and sailfish, it honestly doesn’t get much better than this.
