Examines how the Immigration and Naturalization Service decides who will be granted asylum in the United States. The applicant must have a "well-founded fear" of persecution in his or her home country. Despite true and terrifying stories of torture and mistreatment, it's often up to how well the translator presents the case and how sensitive are the ears of the asylum officer to decide a person's fate.Tungrus

IMDB 5.4 | Oct , 2015
From his first major film role (In the Heat of the Night, 1961) to his most recent film (Bulworth, 1998), he sought and shunned the spotlight with equal fervor. An irresistible embodiment of the American male and a collector of women, actor-producer-screenwriter and ultimately Oscar-winning director Warren Beatty embodies the genius, candor, and excesses of Hollywood.Mask
IMDB 6.8 | Nov , 2015
Charles Lewis founded TapouT in 1997, prompting a whirlwind life that intersected the birth of a sport. Selling TapouT apparel out of the trunk of his car during road trips throughout California, a hot bed of mixed martial arts in the late 1990s, Lewis took on the superhero persona of “Mask" as he donned war paint on his face and wore outlandish comic book outfits. Mask's vision quickly came to represent hardcore aspects of MMA fandom at a time when the sport floundered under political pressure. The history of MMA cannot be told without mentioning Charles “Mask” Lewis, or the era in which he emerged. On March 11, 2009, Lewis was killed by a drunk driver in Newport Beach, Calif. To honor his contributions, the sport's dominant promoter, the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), posthumously inducted "Mask" as the first and only non-fighter into the UFC Hall of Fame.Küchengespräche mit Rebellinnen
