Penguins celebrates the destiny of a very special King Penguin, who returns to his birthplace in the sub-Antarctic. Known as Penguin City, the island is home to hundreds of albatrosses, fur seals and brawling elephant seals - as well as six million penguins! Somehow our hero must earn his place among the island inhabitants and fulfill his destiny by finding a mate and raising a family.

What follows is the story of the most challenging time in a King Penguin's life, when he is driven to nurture and defent his offspring against harsh weather and fierce predators. This cosmic drama plays out in one of Earth's last great wildernesses, amid steep mountain ranges and windblown plains half buried beneath snow and ice. Penguins is an unforgetable tale of one King Penguin's journey through his species' central rite of passage. Run Time 39 min. Rated G

Film Festival - 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.

For literally thousands of years, horses have helped humanity evolve and grow.

Majestic White Horses will use as its centerpiece both the world's most famous horses, the Lippizans of Austria, and their home, the internationally famous Spanish Riding School of Vienna, but will also capture the heart and mystique of this great animal from the time of its youth to the crowning achievement of its entrance into the School.

Film Festival - Adrenaline Rush explores the innards of risk taking in a wide and spectacular way. From the "explosive" science and entrepreneurship of Alfred Nobel to a schoolboy's first day in class, from the boldness and determination of Henry Ford to the shy but affectionate sentiment of a teen for another, Adrenaline Rush brings us on a journey in the multidimensional world of resk, a world where progress of humankind or personal accomplishment aren't necessarily related to the scope or the nature of the endeavor.

Adrenaline Rush also teachers us that humanity can benefit from the unexpected and combined efforts of two very different resk takers whose minds meet across half a millennium and across theboundaries of the Old and New Worlds, as we witness the experiment of Leonaardo Da Vinci's notorious parachute by Adrian Nicholas, world's most respected skydiver and inventor in his own right, monitored closely by Salford scientists who seek answers on critical and life pertaining matters. Incidentally, Adrenaline Rush doesn't hesitate to explain scientific concepts in simple words.

From the soaring and breathtaking cliffs of Norway to the calm and inspiring immensity of the Mojave Desert, from Thomas Edison's laboratory to a simple American schoolyard, Adrenaline Rush is more than a thrilling visual experience, it's an invitation to explore our inner selves and a statement that there is no such thing as having little courage.
