Timo Novotny labels his new project an experimental music documentary film, in a remix of the celebrated film Megacities (1997), a visually refined essay on the hidden faces of several world "megacities" by leading Austrian documentarist Michael Glawogger. Novotny complements 30 % of material taken straight from the film (and re-edited) with 70 % as yet unseen footage in which he blends original shots unused by Glawogger with his own sequences (shot by Megacities cameraman Wolfgang Thaler) from Tokyo. Alongside the Japanese metropolis, Life in Loops takes us right into the atmosphere of Mexico City, New York, Moscow and Bombay. This electrifying combination of fascinating film images and an equally compelling soundtrack from Sofa Surfers sets us off on a stunning audiovisual adventure across the continents. The film also makes an original contribution to the discussion on new trends in documentary filmmaking.

Bruce Brown's The Endless Summer is one of the first and most influential surf movies of all time. The film documents American surfers Mike Hynson and Robert August as they travel the world during California’s winter (which, back in 1965 was off-season for surfing) in search of the perfect wave and ultimately, an endless summer.

"After Jiang Ge's murder, Liu Xin and her family's approach and attitude are the only reason that triggered this lawsuit; I just use the law to legally defend my rights and interests, not to talk about being more serious. But no matter how much legal responsibility Liu Xin should bear, I never wanted anyone to commit cyber violence against her, such as disinformation and defamation. As early as the beginning of Jiang Ge's murder, someone added a WeChat to scold me: sending Jiang Ge to study in Japan deserved it. I couldn't understand at all. Sending my daughter to study abroad was to let her learn more, so why should even that be attacked after Liu killed her. After that, some people publicly abused Jiang Ge on Weibo, and in the first half of 2017, I went to the local police station to report the case. in December 2017, when the trial of Chen Shifeng was held in Japan, the net storm was the craziest. Numerous netizens could not stand to see it and helped me report it..."

Professor Jim Al Khalili delves into over 50 years of the BBC science archive to tell the story behind the emergence of one of the greatest theories of modern science, the Big Bang. The remarkable idea that our universe simply began from nothing has not always been accepted with the conviction it is today and, from fiercely disputed leftfield beginnings, took the best part of the 20th century to emerge as the triumphant explanation of how the universe began. Using curious horn-shaped antennas, U-2 spy planes, satellites and particle accelerators, scientists have slowly pieced together the cosmological jigsaw, and this documentary charts the overwhelming evidence for a universe created by a Big Bang.

We follow workers performing routine tasks seemingly indefinitely. The landscape, ravaged by violence and destruction, looks like the setting in a dystopian sci-fi movie. As we move in closer, we begin to grasp what we are seeing and realize it is a road construction site – the more details appear, the more the complexity of this reality emerges.
