Every day, on the streets of Canada's cities, we pass them on our way to work or school. Bums, beggars, winos, bag people we call them. But who is the person at the end of that outstretched arm? What is life on the street really like? Is there a way off the street? For six years, director Daniel Cross followed the lives of three homeless men who spent much of their time in and around a Montreal subway station. Filmed in a cinema verité style, the film is unique: it humanizes the homeless, breaking down the barrier between us and them, neither moralizing nor offering easy answers. This is a gritty, compelling look at life on the streets that moves beyond the media stereotypes to show both the humanity of the homeless and the street-toughened aspects of their existence.

Jose Javier Reyes' dramatic thunderbolt from Regal Films, "Bayarang Puso" which stars Aga Muhlach, Lorna Tolentino, and Carmina Villaroel is a movie about decadence and materialism set against a backdrop of the most recent leisure class craze, ballroom dancing. Although the film makes obviously wild pirouettes around this very interesting subject-dance instructors and their willing and able clientele and whatever relationships they have in between- it is in fact an intriguing drama about love, avarice, and betrayal.

One hot summer day, with the roar of helicopters and jets in the sky. When Yoshimi returned home, he found a letter in his mailbox. It was from his "real father" who said that he was waiting for him at the beach house and wanted him to come and see him. He didn't immediately believe the story that "you are not a real child of the family", but the suggestion that he had a chicken head was true. The next day, Yoshimi leaves the house, ready to never return. Meanwhile, the three women gather at the bus stop and are surprised to find chicken heads hanging from each other's necks. The three quickly become friends and embark on a foolhardy adventure, but they are involved in one bizarre accident after another... A surreal story and images that seem to make no sense, that seems to continue and break off, that seems to be in the near future and in the past, that seems eerie and wacky. The analogue speed of the film evokes the sensation of a daytime nightmare.

Academy Award winner Istvan Szabo brings to the screen Offenbach's operettas set against the backdrop of power and intrigue in 19th century Paris. Offenbach's Secret follows the staging of Croquefer and Les deux Aveugles at the Theatre des Bouffes-Parisiens founded by Offenbach in 1855. Limited by French law to one act with no more than three singers, Offenbach's early operettas were filled with biting social commentary and poked fun at the moral ambiguity of France's Second Empire under Napoleon III. In addition to Offenbach's vivacious music, the film features lush costumes, period details, and striking set designs.

Fan Cans are customized paint cans stuffed with a CD, video, T-shirt and various Metallica “swag”. Fan Cans are released by the official fan club and sold to members only, this makes the early versions practically hard to find. Fan Can 1 is a collection of studio outtakes and miscellaneous jams from when the band was in the studio recording Load. During one of the Load sessions, Metallica recorded (what became the Fan Can one CD) in one take without stopping the tape between songs, capturing discussions between the band and Bob Rock about what to play and such. The tracks are untitled but include versions and snippets of songs by AC/DC, Mercyful Fate, The Beatles and one of Lars favorites at that time, Oasis. These covers are often short or cut in half as they haven't played them before. The video is excellent, containing footage not available anywhere else. The Video and CD cover art design is by James Hetfield.
