It constitutes research into the life of the Hellenism of the East before the catastrophe, the causes of the Catastrophe, as well as the lives of the refugees in Greece, their contribution to the economic sector, and the painful process of their integration into Greek society. Lastly, there are narratives about the Asia Minor Campaign as experienced by eyewitnesses.

A group of girls from the Gough Grove Community in Tower Hamlets consider why arguments happen, who they happen with, and how they happen. They talk about their personal experiences and the way they have reacted to certain situations in the past. They also explore the process by which arguments begin and escalate with some role play situations: at a dinner table, in a playground, on a park bench, and finding a lost purse full of money. The video was entirely filmed, devised and edited by girls from the Gough Grove community, with THAP (Tower Hamlets Arts Project).

Joint film work by Sikorski and artist Asia Ciba documents the atmosphere of the first months following the imposition of martial law. The atmosphere of isolation, precariousness, waiting for it to end and the need to break away from the external, political and social realm. The film was made without any specific intention, on a certain “dead” afternoon, in a cramped basement in Radna St. in Warsaw, where the artist dwelt at the time.

For twenty years, male members of a fraternity at a major state university and their female guests have been celebrating the end of the school year by capturing and eating live salamanders. Is the "salamander-eating contest" staged by these students a fad or a tradition? A rite of passage for college men and women? Or an inhumane and senseless act? The film documents the ritual in cinema verité fashion and permits viewers to decide for themselves. Provided without narration - this short film primarily features obnoxious, loud and brawling youngsters, and develops into a competition among coeds that has strong sexual overtones.

Baron Von Raschke v. Sgt. Jacques Goulet We’re joined with Goulet, who has apparently joined the French Foreign Legion between the 81 show and this one, holding a lengthy chinlock on the Baron, and dropping an elbow for two. Curt Hennig is working as a referee at this point, for whatever reason. Goulet turns the lengthy chinlock into a lengthier choke on the mat, and then TWISTS THE EARS and that just makes the Baron upset. Baron runs him into the turnbuckles to make the comeback, but Goulet takes him down and stomps him blatantly low to cut that off before going to a bearhug. Trongaard notes that we’re nearing 7 minutes, and my timer says 6:00 at this point, so Goulet literally went to a chinlock ONE MINUTE into the match. I’m not shocked. Goulet goes to the dreaded SCORPION HOLD, which is a claw to the back of the neck and I’m not even making that up.

AN EPIC POEM explores the contradictions in man's conception of love through the myths and representations, which support it, and argues that man has constructed love in his own image, reflecting his profound anxieties about prohibited desires. Deftly using poetry, archive material, allusions and re-enactment, it teases out the threads of past and present love and war to investigate those tensions usually hidden from our view. Central to the film is the 'Rokeby Venus', slashed by militant suffragette Mary Richardson. It becomes an entry to the 'historic' past but also to myth and the unconscious, its imagery developed and shifted in a series of tableau-like encounters between Aphrodite and Ares.
