31 min Watch NowDocumentary
In 2018, a group of filmmakers calling themselves "Los Quietos" set out to make a film essay on a hypothetical syndrome of stillness in the Republic of Colombia. To this end, they invite Colombian documentary master Luis Ospina, presidential candidate Gustavo Petro and writer Juan Gabriel Vásquez to give them clues to delve into the history, geography and idiosyncrasy of Colombia, a country that, paradoxically, has very little of stillness. For unknown reasons, the project remained unfinished.

Land Without Bread
IMDB 7.1 | Dec , 1933
An exploration —manipulated and staged— of life in Las Hurdes, in the province of Cáceres, in Extremadura, Spain, as it was in 1932. Insalubrity, misery and lack of opportunities provoke the emigration of young people and the solitude of those who remain in the desolation of one of the poorest and least developed Spanish regions at that time.The Life of a Rock Smasher
IMDB 0 | Jul , 2022
The inspiring story about the professional rock smasher Clive Tapps. A devoted man who plans to fulfill his dream, to smash the biggest rock he has ever faced.Farce of the Penguins
IMDB 4 | Dec , 2006
In this spoof of "March of the Penguins," nature footage of penguins near the South Pole gets a soundtrack of human voices. Carl and Jimmy, best friends, walk 70 miles to the mating grounds where the female penguins wait. The huddled masses of females - especially Melissa and Vicki - talk about males, mating, and what might happen this year. Carl, Jimmy, and the other males make the long trek talking about food, fornication and flatulence. Until this year, Carl's sex life has been dismal, but he falls hard for Melissa. She seems to like him. A crisis develops when Jimmy comes upon something soft in the dark. Can friends forgive? Does parenthood await Carl and Melissa?Faces of Death
IMDB 4.5 | Nov , 1978
A collection of death scenes, ranging from TV-material to home-made super-8 movies. The common factor is death by some means.Nobody Wants Your Film
IMDB 1.5 | May , 2005
Director Peter Judson's semifictitious tale opens a revealing window into the indie filmmaking process, capturing the trivialities, aggravations and enthusiasm that go into completing a picture. Using footage from an indie movie set, e-mails constructing a plotline about distributor difficulties and interviews with indie mainstays such as Steve Buscemi and Sam Rockwell, the film provides a riveting look at one producer's rejections and rewards.Faces of Death II
IMDB 3.8 | May , 1981
Brief scenes of death related material: mortuaries, accidents and police work are filmed by TV crews and home video cameras. Some of it is most likely fake, some not as much.Faces of Death III
IMDB 3.5 | Mar , 1985
The third installment of the infamous "is it real or fake?" mondo series sets its sights primarily on serial killers, with lengthy reenactments of police investigations of bodies being found in dumpsters, and a staged courtroom sequence.Capturar (Las 1001 novias)
IMDB 0 | Mar , 2017
The Day Called X
IMDB 0 | Dec , 1957
Portentously portrays the evacuation of Portland, Oregon, when threatened by a nuclear attack on its state-of-the-art civil defense system.State of Bacon
IMDB 0 | May , 2014
State of Bacon tells the kinda real but mostly fake tale of an oddball group of characters leading up to the annual Blue Ribbon Bacon Festival. Bacon-enthusiasts, Governor Branstad, a bacon queen, Hacksaw Jim Duggan, members of PETA, and an envoy of Icelanders are not excluded from this bacon party and during the course of the film become intertwined with the organizers of the festival to show that bacon diplomacy is not dead.The Making of Michel Petite
IMDB 0 | Sep , 2025
The film shows the behind-the-scenes process of making a documentary about an author known for their autofiction stories. By including its own behind-the-scenes footage, it mirrors the author's storytelling approach, blending the documentary’s creation with the author's narrative technique. In this way, the relationship between reality and fiction is questioned.Pandora Peaks
IMDB 4.6 | Oct , 2004
A dialogue-free documentary on former magazine model Pandora Peaks, with narration by Peaks and Meyer.War in Vienna
IMDB 0 | Jan , 1989
A film about news, life and death. Before the media became so prevalent, we were concerned about our immediate neighborhood. At the end of the day, news was the subject of our conversations, but now it's possible to converse with someone at the other end of the globe. We do it all the time. It's simple. The world has become one big neighborhood. Now Headline News has replaced the back fence. That's the news service of the eigthies. It's a new idea and a new approach.Zombies in the Sugar Cane Field: The Documentary
IMDB 7.8 | Nov , 2019
Tucumán, Argentina, 1965. Three years before George A. Romero's Night of the Living Dead was released, director Ofelio Linares Montt shot Zombies in the Sugar Cane Field, which turned out to be both a horror film and a political statement. It was a success in the US, but could not be shown in Argentina due to Juan Carlos Onganía's dictatorship, and was eventually lost. Writer and researcher Luciano Saracino embarks on the search for the origins of this cursed work.Fly By Night
IMDB 9 | Dec , 2024
Unknown comedians Alex Dolezal and Aidan Fealy attempt to launch the national tour of their absurdist late-night talk show parody but a combination of ADHD and poor choices threaten to derail them before they can even start.Agolathapanavum Athmahathyayum - Chapter 1: Aipose Puranam
IMDB 0 | Dec , 2024
First chapter in the chronicles of a 231-year-old vampire in his journey with his fellow vampires.Conspiracy '58
IMDB 5.8 | May , 2002
The greatest sport event in Sweden ever was without a doubt the soccer world cup of 1958. The film Conspiracy'58 is about the people who were there but most of all about the people who claim that it never took place at all.Dark Side of the Moon
IMDB 7 | Oct , 2002
A French documentary or, one might say more accurately, a mockumentary, by director William Karel which originally aired on Arte in 2002 with the title Opération Lune. The basic premise for the film is the theory that the television footage from the Apollo 11 Moon landing was faked and actually recorded in a studio by the CIA with help from director Stanley Kubrick.Lane Woods Finds Love
IMDB 0 | Jul , 2017
Fresh out of a long term, serious breakup, Lane Woods chooses to work through (read as: distract himself from) his feelings by making a documentary about his attempts to get back out there and find a new love. With the help of his younger brother, Colin, Lane films himself as he goes on countless dates, hoping to catch those first sparks of love on film, instead he ends up documenting something much closer to reality.An Inconvenient Truth
IMDB 7 | May , 2006
A documentary on Al Gore's campaign to make the issue of global warming a recognized problem worldwide.
