Jake Sully è un marine costretto su una sedia a rotelle che accetta di trasferirsi sul pianeta Pandora in sostituzione del fratello morto, la cui missione era quella di esplorare il pianeta. Essendo l'atmosfera del pianeta tossica per gli umani sono stati creati degli esseri simili ai nativi Na'vi che possono essere 'guidati' dagli umani. Pandora è un enorme giacimento di un minerale prezioso per la Terra dove le fonti di energia sono azzerate. Gli indigeni Na'vi non hanno intenzione di essere colonizzati. Il compito iniziale dell'avatar di Jake sarà quello di conoscerne usi e costumi e di farsi accettare all'interno delle comunità indigene. Jake conosce così Neytiri, una guerriera Na'vi figlia del capo tribù. Da lei impara a divenire un guerriero molto diverso dal marine che è stato e se ne innamora ricambiato.

Proprio come Peter Pan, l'intrepido protagonista delle sue storie preferite. Quella notte, mentre i genitori sono fuori, Peter Pan piomba in casa di Wendy, alla ricerca della sua ombra perduta. La ragazza l'ha custodita per lui. In cambio, l'irresistibile adolescente che non vuole diventare grande guiderà lei e i suoi fratellini in un avventuroso viaggio nell'"Isola che non c'è", dove i duelli sono all'ordine del giorno.

Eami means ‘forest’ in Ayoreo. It also means ‘world’. The story happens in the Paraguayan Chaco, the territory with the highest deforestation rate in the world. 25,000 hectares of forest are being deforested a month in this territory which would mean an average of 841 hectares a day or 35 hectares per hour. The forest barely lives and this only due to a reserve that the Totobiegosode people achieved in a legal manner. They call Chaidi this place which means ancestral land or the place where we always lived and it is part of the "Ayoreo Totobiegosode Natural and Cultural Heritage". Before this, they had to live through the traumatic situation of leaving the territory behind and surviving a war. It is the story of the Ayoreo Totobiegosode people, told from the point of view of Asoja, a bird-god with the ability to bring an omniscient- temporal gaze, who becomes the narrator of this story developed in a crossing between documentary and fiction.

The causes underlying the collapse of civilizations are usually traced to overuse of resources. As we write this, the world is reeling from economic chaos, peak oil, climate change, environmental degradation, and political turmoil. Every day, the headlines re-hash stories of scandal and betrayal of the public trust. We don't have to make outraged demands for the end of the current global system - it seems to be coming apart already. But acts of courage, compassion and altruism abound, even in the most damaged places. By documenting the resilience of the people hit hardest by war and repression, and the heroism of those coming forward to confront the crisis head-on, END:CIV illuminates a way out of this all-consuming madness and into a saner future. Backed by Jensen's narrative, the film calls on us to act as if we truly love this land. The film trips along at a brisk pace, using music... Written by Franklin Lopez

“Shellmound” is the story of how one location was transformed from a sacred center of pre-historic cultures to a commercial mecca for modern people.

Now, the tainted ancient soil sits beneath the glittering lights of Banana Republic, Victoria’s Secret, and the AMC movie theaters. “Shellmound” examines the decisions made during the recent toxic cleanup, excavation, and construction of the Bay Street mall through the eyes of the city of Emeryville, the developer, the archaeologists, and the native Californians who worked on the site.
