Antarctic Madness
In 1978 Jimmy Graham went to Antarctica with Operation Deepfreeze to train scientists in survival skills on the ice. He left in December of that year. Three months later he arrived back agitated and paranoid. He said that he had stumbled onto an illegal nuclear site and that the CIA had given him a chemical lobotomy. He descended into madness. Unable to cope with his frightening behaviour, his wife fled with their two children. Now, thirty years later, his daughter Juliet will try to uncover the truth and reconnect with what’s left of the man she called her father.
50 cent: Rise Above
50 Cent has had a tough life. Training as an amateur boxer, he conditioned himself to become a champion, which is exactly what he did when he turned to his passion: hip hop.

God Bless Ibiza
Follows a team of passionate young Christian clubbers who spend the summer in Ibiza trying to bring the love of Jesus to the hedonistic tourists on Europe’s clubbing capital. Young, hip and radical, the team are a far cry from the sandaled missionaries of yester-year. They’re more at home in a club than a church, dance tracks are their hymns and they invoke the holy spirit in clubs with quasi-spiritual names like Godskitchen, Eden and Ascension. Whilst they have no problem hanging out with clubbers high on E, the team themselves have all sworn off drugs, alcohol and sex and say they get their kicks instead from supernatural experiences of God.
