OJ: Made In America (DVD): Ezra Edelman OJ: Made In America (DVD)
Ezra Edelman 2
R227 Discovery Miles 2 270 Ships in 15 - 30 working days

It is the defining cultural tale of modern America - a saga of race, celebrity, media, violence, and the criminal justice system. And two decades after its unforgettable climax, it continues to fascinate, polarize, and even, yes, develop new chapters. From Peabody and Emmy-award winning director Ezra Edelman, it's the almost 8 hour documentary production O.J.: Made in America.

O.J. revisits - and redefines - it all. The domestic abuse. The police investigation. The white Bronco chase. The trial of the century. The motive, the blood, the glove. The verdict. The aftermath. Drawing upon more than seventy interviews, from longtime friends and colleagues of Simpson to the recognizable protagonists of the murder investigation to observers and commentators with distinct connections to the story, the docu-event is an engrossing, compelling, and unforgettable look at a tantalising saga.

Because at the end of what seems like a search for the truth about O.J. Simpson, what's revealed just as powerfully is a collection of indelible, unshakeable, and haunting truths about America, and about ourselves.

R659 Discovery Miles 6 590 Ships in 15 - 30 working days

Documentary exploring what life was like for classical musicians in the German Democratic Republic (GDR) after the division of Germany in 1945. Used to advertise the merits of the GDR, classical music was portrayed by the authorities as representative of a culture-loving working people, in direct contrast to the 'decadent', westernised pop music of the day. Those musicians who were not only gifted but also displayed the correct ideological values were able to enjoy privileges beyond the reach of the masses. Through interviews with musicians active at the time, both in the GDR and the Federal Republic of Germany (FDR), the film compares and contrasts the lives of those involved, and provides an insight into the way the political system influenced artistic life.

Documentary about the North Dakota town of Williston, which has recently become a mecca for men looking for employment in the oil business. With the controversial decision to introduce fracking to North Dakota in 2008, the area has enjoyed a significant rise in employment prospects. However, with this, there has also been a huge spike in population as hundreds of people from throughout the country have come in search of work. Film-maker Jesse Moss interviews many of those who are displaced and seeking employment and gains an insight into their ambitions and backgrounds while focussing on Jay Reinke, an altruistic Lutheran pastor who has opened the doors of his church to give shelter to those in need. Reinke speaks candidly of how he believes he has become a friend and a beacon of hope to these 'overnighters', but is constantly scrutinised by the locals for putting unwelcome strain on their community.
