Chechen Music, New Year in Grozny 2006

For no other reason than to parry the Borat documentary with something from former, (or want to be former Russian) Soviet central Asia that was the inspiration for Borat, rather than Kazakhstan in particular. A testament to the wonders of the Internet, and the obscure stuff that you can find with a single keystroke, a Chechen New Year, with oddly catchy music – enjoy.

Running time: 1 hour 40 mins.

Finding the Lewis Gun

This is a film by a gun nut about looking for his favorite, mythical, machine gun, to unload half a gazillion rounds of ammunition at the local machine gun range/diner. It will appeal to gun nuts, or people who have a morbid anthropological curiosity about gun nuts in 21st Century America. In fact if you spliced 30 seconds of Michael Moore at the beginning you could probably submit it as an ironic piece, at Sundance.

Running time: 24 mins.
