- DirectorJorge SanjinésStarsDomitila de ChungaraEusebio GirondaFederico VallejoA documentary reenactment of the government-ordered massacre of striking tin miners and their families at the Siglo XX Mines in 1967 in Bolivia. The film starts with previous massacres and represions (starting 1942 in Catavi), before and after the bolivian Revolution, and puts the finger on the people responsible. All of this according to the director's belief of movies having to show what people wanted: and people wanted to know causes and responsibilities. A little reading on the history of Bolivia after the revolution should led to a better understanding of this film, for it was directed to people who actually lived the process (some of them acting in the movie), and many meaningful sequences and details may not be understood in all their symbolic and historic value.

- DirectorFernand LégerDudley MurphyStarsKiki of MontparnasseFernand LégerDudley MurphyA pulsing, kaleidoscope of images set to an energetic soundtrack. A young women swings in a garden; a woman's face smiles. The rest is spinning cylinders, pistons, gears and turbines, kitchen objects in concentric circles or rows - pots, pan lids, and funnels, cars passing overhead, a spinning carnival ride. Over and over, a heavy-set woman climbs stairs carrying a large bag on her shoulder. An Art Deco cartoon figure appears, dancing. This is a world in motion, dominated by mechanical and repetitive images, with a few moments of solitude in a garden.
