THE BONES- 103 MINS

Just imagine: the mighty dinosaurs that once roamed and ruled our plant are now just fossilized bones, secreted in rock formations all over the world. Once the domain of palaeontologists and amateur collectors, those fossils are now the stuff of international smuggling, big business and political intrigue, The Bones is a sweeping cinematic examination of the fiercely competitive and hugely lucrative dinosaur bone trade, a secret world few people know anything about.

JOAN BAEZ - I AM NOISE

In this biography that opens with her farewell tour, Joan Baez takes stock in an unsparing fashion, confronting often painful memories and opening up about her history with mental illness, her family, drugs, ageing and questions of guilt and forgiveness. For the first time on record, she speaks to her relationship with Bob Dylan, how she used her fame to launch his career, and the pain of their later estrangement. The film interweaves diary entries and Baez’s own illustrations with extensive conversations and backstage moments from the tour.

Red Fever

Red Fever follows Cree co-director Neil Diamond as he asks, “Why do they love us so much?” and sets out on a journey to find out why the world is so fascinated with the stereotypical imagery of Native people that is all over pop culture. Why have Indigenous cultures been revered, romanticized, and appropriated for so long, and to this day? Red Fever uncovers the surprising truths behind the imagery -- so buried in history that even most Native people don't know about them.
