Cave of Forgotten Dreams - Releases March 25th
Positively received at its Toronto Festival Premiere, CAVE OF FORGOTTEN DREAMS shows the dramatic results of Herzog’s exclusive access to the recently discovered Chauvet caves in the South of France, and their truly extraordinary cave paintings, dating back 32,000 years. Herzog’s use of 3D really brings these beautiful works of art and the breath-taking cathedral like cave with its towering stalagmites to life. Herzog uses his unique access to this treasure trove of Palaeolithic masterpieces to muse on the immensity and fragility of man’s progress. Herzog combines his gifts as a conjurer of unforgettable images, explorer of forbidden landscapes and poetic philosopher to illuminate and celebrate the earliest recorded visions of humanity. The Chauvet Cave, which contains the earliest known cave paintings, was discovered in 1994 and is considered one of the most significant prehistoric art sites. Hundreds of cave paintings depict at least thirteen different species, including horses, cattle, lions, panthers, bears, rhinos and even hyenas. The artists used techniques not often seen in other cave art making the Chauvet Cave an important record of Palaeolithic life in all of its savage detail.

INSIDE JOB has made the short-list in the Documentary Feature category for the 83rd Academy Awards. From Academy Award®-nominated filmmaker, Charles Ferguson (“No End in Sight”), comes “INSIDE JOB,” the first film to expose the unrelenting truth behind the economic crisis of 2008. The global financial meltdown, at a cost of over $20 trillion, resulted in millions of people losing their homes and jobs, while imperiling the economic stability of nearly every developed country from the United States to Iceland to China to Greece. Through extensive research and interviews with highly regarded financial insiders, politicians and journalists, the film traces the rise of a rogue industry and unveils the corrosive relationships which have corrupted politics, regulation and academia.
Narrated by Academy Award® winner, Matt Damon, ”INSIDE JOB” clearly presents the often infuriating story of a “Wall Street government,” and defines how the recent financial crisis was, in fact, an “inside job,” executed collectively by bankers, politicians, rating agencies, bureaucrats and professors. They utilized deregulation to create and tout complex financial derivative and securitized instruments – known to some as “weapons of mass destruction” – to benefit their own personal bank accounts, while turning a blind eye as the subprime mortgage market tanked, wiping out the life savings of many on Main Street. As stated in the film, “this crisis was not an accident.”
The story of a chameleon with an identity crisis.
Directed by: Gore Verbinski
Starring:Johnny Depp, Isla Fisher, Abigail Breslin, Alfred Molina, Bill Nighy, Harry Dean Stanton, Ray Winstone, and Timothy Olyphant as The Spirit of the West
