In the 70s a group called the Alliance Weather Underground was formed from a student protest group. They fought against the USA government when authorities were arresting dope smokers and giving them over 10 years in jail for possession of a single joint. The documentary is one of the most interesting I have seen in a long time and is well worth a watch.

[Part 1] The Tower: A Tale of Two Cities, an observational documentary which has been filmed over three years, charts the urban regeneration of the notoriously troubled Pepys Estate in South London. A property developer is turning a dilapidated former council high-rise into luxury riverside apartments and another is being demolished and rebuilt for public sector workers. The changes are happening under the gaze of those still living in the original local authority houses next door. The experiences and opinions of those still living on the estate, and those moving into the chic new homes, capture a key period of transition in contemporary London.

Theres an old saying that goes something like this; A man is afraid three times: when he first sees a lion spoor; when he first hears a lion call; and when he first sees a lion when hes on footÂÂ. At Makenyane situated in South AfricaÂÂs north-west province, even the elephants - the real kings of the jungle respect lions. At Makenyane there is an important lion research project on the go and there is nothing like waking in the night to the call of a lion or a hyena shrieking to remind you that you are in a place of primal beauty. You watch and wonder at the gifts of Africa. Twenty seven thousand Afrikaners died in the war against the British; of those twenty two thousand were women and children. Now the animals have come back to the land around the Kruger house.
