Channel Crossing

The English Channel. The iconic 35 and a half km body of water separating Britain and mainland Europe. It’s the busiest shipping lane in the world; prone to dangerous swells and treacherous weather conditions. You can sail it, fly over it, and even catch a train under it, but only a handful of hardy souls have attempted to pedal across! The Guinness World Record stands at 6 hours and 39 minutes and endurance cyclist Jon Shubert and triathlete Mark Threlfall have it firmly in their sights. Their training schedules are in place and a crack team of engineers at Oxford Brookes University has built them a kayak/tandem craft that they hope could just be a record breaker. Can pedal power conquer The English Channel’s mighty waves?

R.F. Lucchetti: O Cronista do Além

The greatest writer of fantastic literature, horror and suspense in the world is Brazilian and he is alive! At 93 years old, Rubens Francisco Lucchetti has many stories to tell. And that's what he does on this DVD, the first of his career, in an exclusive and relaxed interview, where he goes over his long career. Author of nearly 1700 books (mostly horror and thrillers), many using various pseudonyms, he could have been in the Guinness Book of World Records, but he was never interested in it. He preferred to write non-stop. He was also one of the greatest writers of Brazilian comics, having written 300 scripts for horror comics illustrated by legendary artists such as Rodolfo Zalla, Eugenio Colonnese, Nico Rosso and Edmundo Rodrigues, among others. He partnered with filmmakers José Mojica Marins (Coffin Joe) and Ivan Cardoso, having written 25 films for them, all classics of national cinema.

Mato Mato Mato - Canibal Filmes e as Produções de 'Horor' no Oeste de SC

In 1992, a group of teenagers began recording horror films with VHS cameras in Palmitos, in the west of Santa Catarina, Brazil. Led by Santa Catarina director Petter Baiestorf, the production company came to be called Canibal Filmes. Far from large urban centers and in times of stagnation in Brazilian cinema, the group learned in practice how to make low-budget cinema. The films found their own way of financing and showing to the public. Through reports, photographs, documents and videos, the documentary covers Canibal's early years, retracing the group's efforts and challenges in making independent cinema in a region with no cinematic tradition.

Die Rückkehr der Sextouristen: Deutsche Männer in Pattaya

Prostitution is banned in Thailand, yet every year about 400,000 men from Germany travel to the Asian country. The so-called sex tourists spend a few nice days in the coastal city of Pattaya with bought "girlfriends" and thus circumvent the prostitution ban. Besides seemingly harmless sex meetings, however, there is also child prostitution, which has worsened especially since the Corona lockdown and also poses major problems for the police.

What the Hell Happened to Blood, Sweat & Tears?

In 1970, Blood, Sweat and Tears was one of the biggest bands in the world. They had exploded on the scene with both daring and promise, selling millions of records, winning multiple Grammy Awards including Album of the Year (beating out The Beatles' Abbey Road) and headlining the legendary Woodstock festival. In demand for concert and TV appearances, BS&T was a darling of the mainstream and rock press, icon of the counterculture and inspiration for a generation of horn-based bands. Their future was limitless. And then it all went wrong.
