The musical subgenre of Britpop would not be the same without the influence of one band; Pulp, whose ironic swagger and generation defining image is captured in this poignant documentary marking their 25 plus year career. This film mixes concert footage from a landmark reunion show in the band’s hometown of Sheffield with behind-the-scenes interviews with the band, bystanders and fans. A music-film like no other – at times moving, hilarious and bewildering (much like the band it portrays).

The screening on Saturday 7 June (17.40) will be followed by a live satellite Q&A with band-members Jarvis Cocker, Nick Banks, Candida Doyle, Steve Mackey and Mark Webber, hosted by Adam Buxton, from Sheffield Film Festival.

The screenings on Tuesday 17 – Thursday 19 June will be preceded by DepicT! ’14 Random Act Special Mention Winner: Sun (Paul Hill, 1m40s, UK 2013).

GRTV: Propaganda and the Ukraine Crisis [Full Length Documentary]

 

 

This full length GRTV documentary produced by Mahdi Darius Nazemroaya examines the fictitious land of “Nulandistan” (named after Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland)  that has been constructed out of Ukraine.

It depicts how the realities of crimes against humanity and political oppression involving terrorist mobs are casually replaced by a World of fiction, in which real “Western style democracy” prevails.

It deconstructs the rhetoric and propaganda of the Obama Administration and its European allies regarding the crisis in Ukraine and takes a look at their growing frustration towards the Russian media, particularly RT, for challenging their account of events on the ground in what they have declared is an intensifying “information war”.

The documentary starts with an examination of the EuroMaidan protests that both Washington and the Western media have used to justify the instatement of an unelected self-proclaimed regime in Kiev.

The May 2 Odessa Massacre and the political protest movement leading up to the referendums in Donestsk and Luhansk in East Ukraine are reviewed.

The underlying focus is to show how the reality of events in Ukraine has been been misappropriated and propagandized to support US foreign policy and to justify tensions against Russia.

The events that have shaken Egypt since 2011 have taken the country from a revolution aimed at ending political oppression to the overthrow of the new president, a member of the Muslim Brotherhood. At the center of the story is Cairo’s Tahrir Square, the gathering place for protesters and the site of many of the period’s most dramatic moments.
