AHLAAM
(Utopia)


Artwork not final



Coming Fall 2008




Director: Mohamed Al-Daradji
Cast: Aseel Adel, Bashiral-Majid, Mohammed Hashim

Director Mohamed Al-Daradji literally risked life and limb to bring you the only film about the Iraq War told from the Iraqi point of view. A film Variety calls "an ambitious work that's both harrowing and beautiful". "Ahlaam" is the tale of three patients in a Baghdad mental institution running through rioting streets after their hospital is decimated.

The filmmaker had a camera in one hand and an AK-47 in the other. His crew was beaten and lined up to be shot by the insurgents, interrogated by American Soldiers, his 14 year old boom man was shot in the leg and someone from the cast was kidnapped. Somehow, the footage survived and has evolved into a powerful, bone chilling story of human beings struggling to make sense of unimaginable circumstances.

"Apocalypse Now and Deer Hunter are masterpieces that can be watched time and time again from the safe position of it being historical. But Iraq is a tragedy still unfolding, potentially set to be replicated in neighboring countries, It's rare that cinema is so relevant and vital, [the filmmaker] deserves every support in getting this film to the widest possible audience" -Netribution.

"Harrowing & Beautiful"

Director: Zeb Haradon
Cast: Zeb Haradon, Robin Ballard

Jim is a shy, withdrawn loner, pervert and virgin.
Lana is a friendly and outgoing born again Christian who has renounced her promiscuous drug filled past. They have never met until they step into an elevator together one day. The elevator gets stuck between floors, and they start to get to know each other. A building maintenance man assures them over the elevator's emergency intercom that a repairman is on the way. Hours, days, weeks, and months pass, and no repairmen arrive. Jim and Lana spend their days screaming into the intercom trying to get the maintenance guy to answer again. He doesn't.

Starvation is not a problem, as Lana entered the elevator with a bag full of groceries, which is mysteriously found to be filled with fresh food every morning. After enough time passes, Jim gives up hope of escape and resigns himself to building a new life in the elevator with Lana, who he sees as his first girlfriend. Lana on the other hand desperately wants to escape, and clings to her faith in God to provide them with an opening of the elevator doors. Eventually, a reluctant and desperate romance begins--


Clearly inspired by early Lynch, Buñuel, Cronenberg, and even the recent work of James Fotopoulos. And if you know anything at all about any of these filmmakers you'll rightly conclude that Elevator Movie firmly belongs under that prickliest of classifications:

Not For Everyone.

Director: Zeb Haradon
Cast: The Members of the Salt Lake City, Utah "Open Mind Forum"

September 11, 2001. Salt Lake City, Utah. A messianic group called "The Open Mind Forum" awaits the implementation of NESARA,
a secret law 100 years in the making. Once implemented, NESARA will abolish the IRS, remove George W.Bush from office, expose Bush as a reptilian alien, and install a UFO-flying Jesus as America's new leader.

NESARA was already delayed as a result of 9/11. If Bush declares war with Iraq, there's no telling how much further this crucial law will be denied. "The Open Mind Forum" must channel all their faith and prayers toward the desperate hope that their UFO allies will intervene this war, thereby establishing NESARA and delivering us peace and harmony on Earth.

"Unbelievably outrageous, supremely ridiculous, absolutely f***ing crazy.
What Haradon captures on film is truly fascinating."

Director: Stuart Urban
Cast: Guinevere Turner, Christien Anholt

Peter is hired to infiltrate the seedy, psychosexual London S&M scene. He must gather evidence of "physical assaults" to prosecute and shut the down this sexual hell. Inevitably, Peter goes too deep and falls for the irresistible Mistress Tanya Cheex. Will he accomplish his mission or be lured into this modern day Pompeii?

The world's first feature film set in the fetish club scene, released in 1997 to both controversy and acclaim, 'P2TP' soon reached "cult favorite" status (The Boston Phoenix)--- and was the last film of the twentieth century to be banned in Ireland (and other countries)!

"Shockingly hilarious - Turner is a sex goddess"

"A fun and deftly erotic adventure"

Director: Danny Schechter

Forget the hanging chads and butterfly ballots. The Presidential 2000 election is still a mystery to most Americans. What actually happened with the 180,000 uncounted Florida votes that would have elected Vice President Al Gore? And who was responsible for the injustice? Was it the disorganized media or the irresponsible state of Florida?

"Recount Democracy" investigates charges of disenfranchisement, racial exclusion, voting rights violations and the subverting of a recount in the most contested and controversial election in U.S. history. Nearly a decade later, the story every American must know is told in unflinching detail.

This is documentary about how a "Taliban" is born, trained and recruited. What type of person becomes a "Taliban", and why. In Pakistan, "Taliban" means "student". Like students anywhere else in the world, there are many-- and they are ready to be taught a way of life until death.

Sergeant Alvarez has only four weeks to train a group of men into soldiers. But the typical training methods do not work with these recruits. That's because the recruits are Iraqis. They don't speak a word of English. They don't understand commands or swear words. They refuse to shave their mustaches, let alone their entire heads. Meanwhile, outside the base, the insurgency is raging.       

How do American soldiers mold Iraqi Soldiers? How do they train Iraqis to storm an insurgent stronghold? This fascinating documentary follows the making of an army, an Iraqi Army that fights for America, a key to America's success during this endless war. This story asks, can an Iraqi Army be built to support America?
