A video report on the protests that occurred in connection with the Democrat and Republican National Conventions, Ground Noise & Static is a manifesto. “We went to Denver and St. Paul to take the pulse of the movement. Corporate media would cover the platitudes and posturing of the politicians; we were interested in something else, a story hidden in plain sight, captured in the now-classic street chant, 'This is what democracy looks like'”.

A compilation of three feature-length anarchist documentaries: Pickaxe (an eclectic mix of activists take a stand to protect an old growth forest from logging at the Willamette National Forest of Oregon), Breaking the Spell (an hour-long look at the 1999 Seattle WTO protests and the anarchists who traveled there to set a new precedent for militant confrontation), and The Miami Model (Indymedia activists shot hundreds of hours documenting the 2003 FTAA protests in Miami and shaped it into a documentary that cuts through the mass media blackout to reveal the brutal repression and assault on civil liberties that took place), and five short films: Safetybike, How to turn a bicycle into a record player, Auto re-vision, Join the resistance: fall in love and Why I love shoplifting from big corporations.

In Guerre aux images en Algérie (War on Images in Algeria), René Vautier revisits the footage from Algérie en flammes (Algeria in Flames), shot alongside Algerian fighters in the ALN maquis in late 1956 and throughout 1957. These war images, filmed in the Aurès-Nementchas region, were meant to serve as a basis for dialogue between French and Algerians in the pursuit of peace in Algeria. They show the presence of an armed organization close to the people. In Guerre aux images en Algérie, Vautier sheds light, in 1985, on the context and often dramatic conditions in which the film was made.

Guerrilla: the Taking of Patty Hearst is a gripping, unparalleled account of the most sensational kidnapping in American history. On February 4, 1974, college student Patty Hearst (the granddaughter of publishing tycoon William Randolph Hearst) was boldly snatched from her apartment by a flamboyant terrorist group called The Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA). Determined to foment a violent political uprising among America's working class, the SLA extorted the Hearst family into donating millions of dollars in food to the poor, but events soon took a scandalously strange turn.
