Satyamev Jayate - Eps 12 (2012)
After air, the next most vital thing for our survival is water. While at the moment we have enough water for our needs, a time is likely to come when our water supply runs out and we have to buy water at a price similar to fuel. The solution, which some people have implemented, is to save and store rainwater

About:
Our parents are the ones who have brought us up and made us what we are. At least out of consideration for that much, we should be good and kind towards them. But countless people all over India don't think so, going by the numbers of abandoned old people taken in at old age homes. Then there are some older people who take matters into their own hands -- be it romance or adventure sport.

Satyamev Jayate - Eps 010 (2012)
About:
For a country which has been independent for 65 years, it is a matter of shame that we have not yet shaken off the tyranny of caste-based discrimination. Countless people have to live in degrading conditions, children are unable to go to school, employment avenues are closed, and even education does not open bigoted minds.

About:
Alcohol consumption is associated with having fun and enjoying life. But excessive, irresponsible drinking takes away that very life itself. Many alcohol addicts have climbed back to normal life, proving that it is possible to live happily without alcohol. Help for alcoholics is available, free, at Alcoholics Anonymous. Even the occasional drinker must never drink with the aim of becoming drunk. And under no circumstances must you drink and drive -- that is the road to disaster, literally.

The Satanic Verses Affair - Salman Rushdi ()
Synopsis:
Twenty years ago, novelist Salman Rushdie was a wanted man with a million pound bounty on his head. His novel, The Satanic Verses, had sparked riots across the Muslim world. The ailing religious leader of Iran, the Ayatollah Khomeini, had invoked a little-known religious opinion - a fatwa - and effectively sentenced Rushdie to death. Never before had a novel created an international diplomatic crisis on such a scale, and never before had a foreign Government publicly called for the killing of a private citizen of another country.
This film looks back on the extraordinary events which followed the publication of the book and the ten year campaign to get the fatwa lifted. Interviews with Rushdie's friends and family and testimony from leaders of Britain's Muslim community and the Government reveal the inside story of the affair. Rushdie himself was forced into hiding for nearly ten years.

Divorce Iranian Style ()
Synopsis:
Divorce Iranian Style challenges preconceptions about what life is like for
women in Iran. The most startling thing about the film is simply that it was
made. The filmmakers follow the cases of three women who are attempting to
divorce their husbands. Although Iranian religious law frowns on divorce, a
man is allowed to claim the privilege without needing to show cause, provided
he pays his ex-wife compensation. A woman, however, can only sue for divorce if she can prove that her husband is sterile or mad, or if he agrees to let her out of their marriage contract. In the last case, the compensation becomes the bargaining chip: the man will sometimes give his wife her freedom if he doesn't have to pay.
The women are assertive, demanding, and persistent to a degree that confounds stereotypes of oppression. They challenge the judge, badger the uncooperative clerk for misplaced files, chew out their husbands and their husbands' families.
At one point, the judge tells a little girl (the daughter of the court stenographer
who has been a fixture in the court from the age of two months) that he has a
man picked out for her who's "not like the riffraff that come in here." The girl
has a more radical plan: "I won't marry ever, now that I know what husbands are like."

La Portera Ardiente (1988)
About:
A cheaply made and mildly exploitative film with little to recommend beyond the performance of Maribel Fernandez, who delivers her lines with crackle and spark and has enough charisma to fill the screen and carry the film on her own, luckily, as the supporting cast do little to help her.
Synopsis:
Fernandez plays the titular "doorwoman", more or less charged with watching over the entrance to the large yard around which her neighbours small houses are arrayed. This makes up a traditional Mexican "vecindad", where everyone knows everyone else's business, and the habitants seemingly spend most of their time hopping into the beds of their neighbours. Thus the film is filled with plenty of low-grade farce, cheap double- entendres (or albures as they are known here) and a shot of one of the women cast members showering naked included (gratuitously) approximately every 20 minutes or so.

She is constantly spied on by her younger sister Pretty Patty (Peggy Church) who masturbates after seeing her sister's sexual encounters. The ladies in this movie are all on the voloptuos side, it is a soft core but in any decade it would have gotten an X-rating, the sex scenes are that explicit. The lucky guy is Jasper who gets to do all the ladies in the movie, including a hard to believe overdeveloped 15 year old hitchhiker, (who would make any guys quickie hall of fame). The movie has erotic moments, and is funny, a keeper if you ever get a copy of it.

The Edge ()
Synopsis:
Writer David Mamet created two engrossing and memorable characters, played by Alec Baldwin as the urbane fashion photographer and Anthony Hopkins as a reserved and intellectual billionaire. They find themselves teamed up against a giant Kodiak bear, and their own inner demons, when lost together in the Alaskan wilderness. There is a lot going on in this picture, as the subject matter includes male rivalry, the isolationism of extreme wealth, and, most conspicuously, the survival of the fittest. Mamet's script, which sounds a little too arch in spots, is well served by New Zealand director Lee Tamahori, who knows how to capture beauty and brutality in one frame. Although the themes are enormous in scope, they are well balanced. One rarely overpowers the other, nor does the achingly beautiful scenery overshadow the acting. Even if you do not like the intellectualism of the dialogue, there are some great scenes with the bear.

Fertilizer Scarcity and Agriculture
माटो विरलै छुने नेता र उच्च पदस्थ अधिकारीहरुले हिलो पानीमा दुई चार पाईला चप्ल्याङ चुप्लुङ खुट्टा चोबलेर २-४ रोपो धान रोप्दै, असार १५ को दही चिउरा खाए । तर किसानहरुलाई भने उचित सिंचाई नहुँदा बेलामा पानी नपरेर चिन्ता छँदै थियो, त्यसमाथि, समयमा विकासे मल नपाउँदा अर्को चिन्ता थपियो । दुई तिहाइ जनसंख्या कृषक रहेको देशमा खेती लाउने बेलामा मलको हाहाकार, खेती राम्रो भइहाल्यो भने बेच्ने बेलामा भाउ नपाएर हैरानी । कृषिप्रधान देशमा किसान किन सँधै पीडित छन्? कमजोरी कहाँ छ, नीतिमा कि त्यसलाई कार्यान्वयन गर्ने निकायमा ?
नेपाली खेतीबालीका लागि नयाँ बीउ र प्रबिधि सिफारिस गर्ने सरकारी निकाय -- कृषि अनुसन्धान परिषद्को खुमलटार कार्यालय परिसरमा तयार गरिएको यो साझा सवालको बहसमा हुनुहुन्छ- कृषि मन्त्रालयका प्रवक्ता हरि दाहाल, कृषि विशेषज्ञ कृष्ण प्रसाद पौडेल र विभिन्न राजनीतिक दल आवद्ध किसानहरुको सञ्जालका संयोजक चित्र बहादुर श्रेष्ठ ।

Loot (2012)
Synopsis:
Kathmandu,
the city of dreams and hopes. Kathmandu is home to the dreamers, it's
the city of achievers. Life blooms in Kathmandu, life gets destroyed in
Kathmandu. Some win while the others lose. Some find luck easily, while
some struggle the hard way.
Loot is the story for five guys who find quick ways of success and accomplishment in life. It is a quest for quick money and better life. In a place where the crime rates are ascending day by day, Loot draws a reality check on the present security system of the city.
Loot is about relationships: it's about friendship and betrayal. Loot is the real picture of Kathmandu; the city of crime and lawlessness like never explored before.
