Home Sweet Home... but what is home? Most would describe it as a place to keep your belongings or where you would build a family and make memories. But what if the memories of your house were not exclusively yours? What if you lived in a famous house? A house that is extremely well known for being in a TV show or a movie that millions of people have grown up watching and have had their own personal connections with. The House From. .. is a documentary that explores the unique experience of living in a famous house from a TV show or movie. For most people, home is where the heart is. But for others, home is where there are a whole lot of people standing outside, taking pictures and reenacting their favorite scenes while you sip your morning coffee.
In 2015, it took Craig Hicks 36 seconds to execute three Muslim-American students while eating dinner in their home in Chapel Hill, NC. The film charts the victims’ families’ agonizing overnight pivot from trauma to advocacy as they struggle to prevent their loved ones’ deaths from being dismissed as the result of a random parking dispute. They courageously speak the truth about the hate crime that has destroyed their lives, about the overt and insidious ways racism plays out in our society and about the need to reform a hate crime system that is broken.
Here, the real star is the show behind the show: In their nearly hour-long documentary "Rammstein – Behind The Scenes of the World Stadium Tour 2019–2024", the focus is not on the musicians themselves, but on the people who make Rammstein’s monumental performances possible in the first place. Directors Anne Winkler and Marek Weinhold provide a detailed look at the planning, processes, and countless tasks that must be completed before the band can even set foot on stage. Organizing concerts of this scale is always a massive undertaking—but Rammstein’s opulent pyro show, extraordinary stage design, and demanding lighting and sound requirements push their crew to face even greater challenges. The documentary offers an impressive and intimate glimpse into how a team of around 250 people rises to meet these demands. From scouting stadiums and drafting stage layouts, to bolting together massive stage components, rigging the lighting, testing the pyrotechnics, setting up merchandise booths, and preparing catering for the entire tour crew—fans are given an authentic sense of just how many steps it takes before the first flame finally ignites the night’s show. And even after the last note of the encore has faded, the work is far from over for the crew: steel beams, power generators, flamethrowers, instruments, mixing consoles, costumes—everything must be dismantled, packed up, and prepared for the next stadium performance within just a few hours. Watching the crew work hand in hand—highly focused but still smiling—makes the magic of this often-hidden world behind major tour productions truly tangible. Where other bands use documentaries to place themselves front and center, Behind The Scenes shines a light on those who make the musicians’ success possible—through personal portraits, brief interviews, and, most powerfully, the camera’s direct, unobstructed view over their shoulders.

The Vietnam War was a long, costly and disruptive conflict that pitted the communist government of North Vietnam against South Vietnam and its main ally, the United States. Careful, strategic planning was needed to win this war and all of the armies involved shared the common problem of “logistics” - getting their soldiers what they needed to be able to win. During WWII military operations required substantial logistical support. With large armies fighting on a range of terrains, worlds away from each other, the logistical planning took center stage. The lesson learned from those previous conflicts was clear - the will to win must be matched with the means to achieve that victory. Here we will see the logistical efforts necessary to keep the soldiers in Vietnam supplied with “beans, bullets and bandaids”.
