              Xperimental Eros invokes a shimmering fantasia of celluloid sensuality for the pleasure of our largest sex organ - the brain. Using exotic tropes and erotic footage from the world's oldest genre, this program of ardent auteurs spin grindhouse dross into arthouse gold with perverse panache.

Bush, revealing in stunning detail how the American news media have uncritically disseminated the pro-war messages of successive presidential administrations.
