A fascinating journey through some incredibly beautiful women.

A joyful and light-hearted look at alienation. What we see: ugly modern buildings, too many tourists, uniformity - everywhere the same cafés, the same supermarket bags, beggars and homeless, Senegalese merchants selling small Eiffel Towers, police and people fleeing from them, aggressive restaurateurs, markets, crowded subways, traffic jams and exhaust fumes, prostitutes, street fights, clowns. What we hear: Dinner Music for a Pack of Hungry Cannibals by Carl Stalling, a selection of sound recordings for Warner Brothers cartoons from 1941-50.

Prepare yourself for the ultimate showdown as the Avatar's subterranean armada strikes hard in their brutal bid to destroy every human on the surface of the Earth! Between Avatar's giant gravitonic rings, each of which carries the crushing force of a captive black hole, and her monstrous microwave emitting battle cylinders, the combined forces of the world's nations don't stand a chance... but Avatar is mistaken in her belief that her forces are unbeatable. Standing against them is a single amazing ship, the Ra, a Yamato-class battle sub secretly rebuilt after its supposed destruction in World War II by a handful of dedicated warriors who now claim allegiance to no country. Joining them are the mysterious Annette, descendant of a lost civilization, and Go Arisaka, the sole survivor of a vanquished UN Peacekeeping Force who must find a way to work with his estranged father, once missing and presumed dead and now the captain of the Ra.

The UK series Equinox brings us this investigation of a mystery that is baffling Egyptologists. The case calls into question whole areas of accepted scientific fact from botany, through chemistry to archaeology. In 1992, routine tests on a mummy in a Munich museum revealed high body levels of cocaine and nicotine. But such substances were not available in ancient Egypt, coming as they do from the Americas – not, apparently, to be “discovered” for thousands of years after the passing of the Egyptian dynasties. Are the mummies fakes; were the substances from plants that have since disappeared or were there, in fact, trade routes between Egypt and South America that predate accepted chronology?

Sit back and steady yourself for another large portion of the man in the patchwork suit. Roy "Chubby" Brown is back with a vengeance.

An animated look at the 11 essential steps to make the pilgrim's progess from finding a woman to making love to her. Along the way, our prototypical man gets advice about her eyes, her hair, her neck, her nostrils (and how they will flare as she becomes excited), the kiss, disrobing her (be subtle yet have authority), the hug, her nipples, and kinky accessories. At every turn, even as the exultant strains of Handel's Hallelujah Chorus signal that success is upon him, there are dangers and pitfalls. The journey requires steely resolve.

Lävrasiid Äigi, the original Sami title, means "a time during autumn". From ancient times this was the time of year when the Sami people hunted reindeer. A Sami boy dreams about this hunt in the beginning of the film. Suddenly he hears singing, he has never heard before – it is called joik. He falls in love with the joiker: the Daughter of the Sun. To keep her, he needs to hide her for three days and three nights without lighting a campfire inside his tent. In a cloudy night though he takes a chance, but the star, which is her father, sees her through the cracks in the clouds and takes her home. The boy looses the Daughter of the Sun but has learned to master the power of the joik. He gets a large herd of rein deer, and experiences the greatest love of all.

Presented as the work of a French TV crew sent to cover the Bobby Sands 1981 hunger strike, '81 is, in fact, a fictional look at two Belfast families: one catholic and nationalist, one protestant and unionist.

The Italian duo Ciprì & Maresco, known to be cynical deconstructionists, weave a fascinating film around memories of a decadent Sicily. Ruins, memories of ruins - memories are ruins.

They're called bar women, hostesses, or sex workers and "western princesses." They come from poor families, struggling to earn a decent wage, only to be forced into the world's oldest profession. They're the women who work in the camptowns that surround U.S. military bases in South Korea. In 40 years, over a million women have worked in Korea's military sex industry, but their existence has never been officially acknowledged by either government. In The Women Outside, a film by J.T. Orinne Takagi and Hye Jung Park, some of these women bravely speak out about their lives for the first time. The film raises provocative questions about military policy, economic survival, and the role of women in global geopolitics

On the comic tragedy of loneliness, based on the short story "Blumfeld, an elderly bachelor" by Franz Kafka.

Once upon a time there was the story of a little duckling that looked very different from the others. Tall, thin and all black, he nevertheless tries to play on his mischief and his kindness to be accepted by his brothers. But all his efforts are in vain... He decides to escape from the village and then begins the most extraordinary of odysseys.

For longtime fans of Saturday Night Live, nothing says "Christmas" like clay, and the hapless hero of Walter Williams's sadistic skits brings it all back in this half-hour 1996 special. Those who can't stand watching the torture of static, crudely sculpted Play-Doh people might not see the humor as Mr. Bill's whole family is subjected to a wide array of holiday abuse--from the festive blendering of the egg dog to the explosive arrival of the sinister Santa Sluggo. Things are livened up by spiritual guest Father Guido Sarducci and his quest to find a real Christmas in sunny L.A., home of many former SNL actors and writers. Mr. Bill also takes a technological leap forward as a reluctant Scrooge in a computer-animated version of Dickens's A Christmas Carol. Humorous ads for some very simple toys also add to the fun and festivity.
