Poison toads. Bad mushrooms. Missing socks. Carpet leeches. So many ways to die at home!

In the early 90's during the heyday of Club Kids in New York, there were a handful of 'Club Kid houses'. One of them was ours. Because my roommate used to donate her eggs for money, we had shopping bags full of giant needles. So we would shoot everything we could. We were the pioneers of ketamine. The Club Kids saw everything as a performance, so you always tried to document whatever you did. Wondering what happened while we were blacked out, we would put a video camera in the corner to record ourselves. In reality, it was just another Monday night at home with Club Kids, out of costume.

It's still dark outside, but the dawn light starts to melt the black of the night. The sun rises at approximately 6 a.m. to open a new day in the city and at that time, the light changes very quickly and gives an amber, dream-like quality to the nearly empty streets. 6 AM is a collage of New York City lit by the special light of the so-called 'magic hour'.

Plays with The Death of Michael Smith. While on their way to a mariachi recital, a devastating car crash forces a mother and her two sons to confront the truth about their past. Based on a true story.

A self-portrait by The Shins: Shot by the band, about the band. And then shot by the fans, posted on YouTube, and edited into a short film about the band. And they have a helluva sense of humor!

What IS "Alt Porn?" It's the newest wrinkle in adult films, described in the Los Angeles Times as "triple-X fare for the alt-18-to-30 crowd, starring immaculately codified alt-people. That is, those slightly above and below legal drinking age who favor tattoos and piercings." It has become one of the fastest growing genres in XXX film, a locally grown alternative to the traditional porn churned out in the San Fernando Valley, featuring performers who wouldn't look out of place in a Silver Lake club and incorporating elements of performance art and avant-garde film techniques with depictions of hardcore sexual encounters. No silicone implants, no soft-focus mood lighting, no body paint to hide blemishes -- just straight-out sex scenes shot in Eastside lofts and studios and set to underground dance music.

The Silver Lake Film Festival ALT PORN program will feature selections from various Alt Porn features, chosen by the filmmakers themselves, along with in-person appearances by the filmmakers and stars of the Alt Porn scene.

Determined to find the law that requires Americans to pay income tax, Aaron Russo (THE ROSE, TRADING PLACES) sets out on a journey. Neither left- nor right-wing, this startling examination exposes the systematic erosion of civil liberties in America. Through interviews with US Congressmen, a former IRS Commissioner, former IRS and FBI agents, tax attorneys and authors, Russo connects the dots between money creation, federal income tax, voter fraud, the national identity card (becoming law in May 2008) and the implementation of radio frequency identification (RFID) technology to track citizens. A striking case about the evolving police state in America.

The War on Drugs has become the longest and most costly war in American history, the question has become, how much more can the country endure? Inspired by the death of four family members from "legal drugs" Texas filmmaker Kevin Booth sets out to discover why the Drug War has become such a big failure. Three and a half years in the making the film follows gang members, former DEA agents, CIA officers, narcotics officers, judges, politicians, prisoners and celebrities. Most notably the film befriends Freeway Ricky Ross; the man many accuse for starting the Crack epidemic, who after being arrested realized his cocaine source was working for the CIA.

AMERICAN DRUG WAR "the last white hope" shows how money, power and greed have corrupted not just dope fiends but an entire government. More importantly, it shows what can be done about it. This is not some 'pro-drug' stoner film, but a collection of expert testimonials from the ground troops on the front lines of the drug war, the ones who are fighting it and the ones who are living it.
