F. You All: The Uwe Boll Story

Honing his craft as an indie filmmaker in Germany in the early 90s, Uwe Boll never could have imagined the life that lay before him. From working with Oscar-winning actors and making films with US$60million budgets to having actors publicly disparage him and online petitions demanding he stop making films, Boll continued to work; he has a filmography of 32 features, a career that has led to his new life as a successful high-end restauranteur. Already a cult legend, he will be remembered forever in the film world; for some, as a modern-day Ed Wood, who made films so bad, they're good, while for others, a prolific filmmaker who came from a small town in Germany and never compromised his integrity while forging his own unique Hollywood trajectory.

Barbarella Forever

"Get a never-before-seen look behind the scenes of the making of the sexy and swinging sci-fi Cult classic, Barbarella, in Barbarella Forever. In Barbarella, sixties icon Jane Fonda starred as the saucy astronaut from the 41st century sent to stop an evil scientist and Barbarella Forever features footage of Fonda at work and play during shooting. Gain an insight into the creation of the film’s legendary hand-to-hand sex scene, as well as Fonda and co-star David Hemmings’ processes and working relationship, plus, an insight into the film’s suave French director Roger Vadim. This candid featurette is a snapshot of on and off-set life in groovy 1967 and an unforgettable time capsule capturing a film, and way of filmmaking, that they don’t make like this anymore!"
