Double Play: James Benning and Richard Linklater
In 1985, former oil rig worker Richard Linklater began a film screening society in Austin, Texas, that aimed to show classic art-house and experimental films to a budding community of cinephiles. Eventually incorporating as a nonprofit, the newly branded Austin Film Society raised enough money to fly in their first out-of-town filmmaker: James Benning. Accepting the invitation, Benning met Linklater and the two began to develop a personal and intellectual bond, leading to many future encounters. Starting in the 1960s, Benning had been creating low budget films mostly on his own, while Linklater had just begun to craft his first shorts. The filmmakers have remained close even as their careers have diverged. After the cult success of Slacker, Linklater went on to make films with Hollywood support. Benning, meanwhile, has stayed close to his roots and is mainly an unknown figure in mainstream film culture.

Crunch Time: A Skimboard Movie Crunch Time: A Skimboard Movie
"The sun is shining, the weather is sweet. Make you want to move your dancing feet." Bob Marley said it best. Nothing is better than unreal shore break or one of the world's best sidewashes, when the conditions are at their best. Crunch Time brings you years of experience from today's top riders to put you in the right place at the right time. Wintertime discovery journeys in Mainland Mexico, summertime East Coast hurricane swells, fall California road trips from Laguna Beach to Santa Cruz, and spring maxed out Wedge followed by wraps under the Cabo San Lucas Arch. Crunch Time is skimboarding: a critical moment or period (as near the end of the game) when decisive action is needed. A great movie you can watch anytime at a great price. Feed your eyes what they need.

For the Yamakasi the "Art of Displacement" is a way of life. Racing through the new cities that ring Paris, climbing walls, swinging from balconies and leaping across rooftops, they transform the oppressive concrete architecture into places of fantasy, possibility and play. The heart of our documentary is the story of how the Yamakasi are transforming the youth of the suburbs, and themselves, through discipline, will and desire. Now, as the Art of Displacement is being embraced as an extreme sport and urban pastime, will the social message be transmitted as well? What is it for the new generation?

The film follows four strong young Greenlanders, who each in their own way insist on taking responsibility for the future of their country. The documentary explores the difficult balance between the right to self-determination and xenophobic nationalism. Between traditional culture and globalization.
