Movie

Summer 2006: The Swiss heavy metal band Celtic Frost hasn’t given a concert in sixteen years. Now they are standing on the stage of the largest heavy metal festival in the world in Wacken, Germany. Sixty thousand fans are celebrating the return of a legend. Celtic Frost, one of the few world-famous Swiss bands, is back! This documentary film accompanies the band on their comeback tour through Europe, the U.S.A. and Japan. It is a journey to the heart of darkness, of extreme metal and the band members’ attempt to live up to their own legend.

“Stayer” bicycle races were big events up to the 1980s. The cyclists and their pacesetters on heavy motorcycles were popular stars. Today only half a dozen teams remain. They regularly compete on the banked curves of the century-old racetrack in Zurich-Oerlikon. They are perhaps the last of their kind.

2nd Edition of Loose Change documentary. What if...September 11th was not a surprise attack on America, but rather, a cold and calculated genocide by our own government?We were told that the twin towers were hit by commercial jetliners and subsequently brought down by jet fuel. We were told that the Pentagon was hit by a Boeing 757. We were told that flight 93 crashed in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. We were told that nineteen Arabs from halfway across the globe, acting under orders from Osama Bin Laden, were responsible. What you will see here will prove without a shadow of a doubt that everything you know about 9/11 is a complete fabrication. Conspiracy theory? It's not a theory if you can prove it.Written and narrated by Dylan Avery, this film presents a rebuttal to the official version of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and the 9/11 Commission Report.
