Life and times of Phil Ochs
Over the course of a meteoric music career that spanned two turbulent decades, Phil Ochs sought the bright lights of fame and social justice in equal measure - a contradiction that eventually tore him apart. From youthful idealism to rage to pessimism, the arch of Ochs' life paralleled that of the times, and the anger, satire and righteous indignation that drove his music also drove him to dark despair.

The Clonus Horror (1979)
Somewhere in California is a secret industrial complex. Apparently well know to certain privileged members of the inner circles of government, this factory has only one product: human clones! These clones are identical replicas of members of the top 500 of politics and big business. Raised to adulthood, they are then frozen and cryogenically stored so that their body parts can be used to give more or less eternal life to the chosen elite.
The plan is to keep these clones in a state of almost childlike innocence and deny them any knowledge of the real world outside. They are brainwashed with dreams of a mythical place called "America" where (so they are told) they will go if they are lucky enough to be selected.
Smells a lot like the Island.

Gary Wilson
Championed by the likes of Beck and Matt Groening and obsessed over by record collectors, Wilson's 1977 album is widely considered one of the most unique and personal musical statements of the 70s. "...a wonderful, odd album, combining elements of pop, proto new wave, jazz, avant-garde composition and electronic music, alternately sweet and angst ridden, about the women in his life and his fantasies"
Mysterious experimental musician Gary Wilson might have disappeared from the public eye for years, but his fans never forgot him. Here's the story of his career from the 1970s, '80s and his eventual reappearance in the early 2000s.

BARBARELLA opens with the titular heroine stripping down to nothing in zero gravity among strategically placed credits. From there Barbarella embarks on a mission to find a peace-threatening young scientist named Duran Duran (Milo O'Shea) by order of the president of Earth. En route, she's attacked by killer dolls, is strapped into a contraption known as the Excessive Machine, and falls in love with a blind angel.

 The Truth About Gay Animals
American comedian SCOTT CAPURRO embarks on a bizarre odyssey to track down the truth about gay animals. Why would animals be gay? How do you define gay sexual behaviour? And how do you spot it in animals? This wry documentary asks if there has been a conspiracy to keep the truth about gay animals secret. From swans engaging in threesomes to chimpanzees that swing both ways, Scott travels across the globe meeting en-route the college professor funded by the US government to research the genetic make-up of gay sheep, and a recently divorced woman whose husband was so convinced his dog was gay he allegedly beat him to death with a vacuum cleaner.
