 Synopsis: Through a myriad of exciting and
touching personal stories, the film reveals how the wild lifestyles of
California culture are influenced by the untouched California wilderness
that surrounds them. "Adventures in Wild California" is a virtual
expedition that sends audiences careening down an icy, steep mountain
face with snowboarders; twirling on thermals above the clouds with
skysurfers; swimming through the oceans with otters and their surrogate
human mother; excavating the very heart of a thirty-story tall Giant
Sequoia with botanists and emerging from under the spray of one of
California's biggest, surfable waves. The heart-pounding imagery
recreates an experience of California's furthest edges few will ever
know first-hand.

 Synopsis: "Absolute Wilson" chronicles the
epic life, times and creative genius of Robert Wilson, intimately
revealing for the first time one of the most controversial,
rule-breaking and downright mysterious artists of our era. More than a
biography, the film becomes an exhilarating exploration of the
transformative power of creativity itself - and the inspirational tale
of a boy who grew up as a troubled and learning-disabled outsider in the
American South only to become a fearless artist with a profoundly
original perspective to share with the world. The probing yet playful
narrative reveals the deep inter-connections between Wilson's childhood
experiences and the haunting beauty of his monumental works, which
include the theatrical sensations "Deafman Glance," "Einstein on the
Beach" and "The CIVIL WarS."

 Synopsis: Michael Apted's renowned series
tests the maxim by returning every seven years to 14 British children
originally profiled in 7 UP (1964). He began the series seeking to
confirm the class distinctions were alive and well in England. And while
their accents are a dead give-away as to who studied ballet and who
drives a cab, there are also remarkable similarities--as youth gives way
to middle-age, parents die, and children prepare to leave the nest.

done quite a few things in his life. He's got a cushy job stamping
invoices at an electronics superstore, a nice apartment with a proud
collection of action figures and comic books, good friends, a nice
attitude. But there's just one little thing he hasn't quite gotten
around to doing yet--something most people have done by this age. Done a
lot. Andy's never, ever, ever had sex--not even by accident. So is that
such a big deal? Well, for Andy's buddies at the store, it sure is.
Although they think he's a bit of an oddball, there's certainly a
planetful of stranger (and homelier) guys who've at least had one go at
having a go. They consider it their duty to help Andy out of his dire
situation and go to great lengths to help him. But nothing proves

meets Trish, a 40-year-o
