Derived solely from video recordings of Georgian parliamentary proceedings on June 10, 1993, when Eduard Shevardnadze was the head of state, An Incomplete Day in the History of Georgia presents the debate surrounding the introduction of Georgia’s national currency coupon to replace the Russian ruble. Members of parliament voice their concerns from the floor, questioning the resolutions presented by the vice prime minister and president of the National Bank. How should the country’s leaders proceed in light of domestic challenges such as starvation, fuel shortages, budget shortfalls, and rapid inflation? Viewed with hindsight, this document from the early days of Georgian independence reminds us how fragile the democratic process can be.

In 1972, a seemingly typical shoestring budget pornographic film was made in a Florida hotel: "Deep Throat," starring Linda Lovelace. This film would surpass the wildest expectation of everyone involved to become one of the most successful independent films of all time. It caught the public imagination which met the spirit of the times, even as the self-appointed guardians of public morality struggled to suppress it, and created, for a brief moment, a possible future where sexuality in film had a bold artistic potential. This film covers the story of the making of this controversial film, its stunning success, its hysterical opposition along with its dark side of mob influence and allegations of the on set mistreatment of the film's star.

Cameramen and women discuss the craft and art of cinematography and of the "DP" (the director of photography), illustrating their points with clips from 100 films, from Birth of a Nation to Do the Right Thing. Themes: the DP tells people where to look; changes in movies (the arrival of sound, color, and wide screens) required creative responses from DPs; and, these artisans constantly invent new equipment and try new things, with wonderful results. The narration takes us through the identifiable studio styles of the 30s, the emergence of noir, the New York look, and the impact of Europeans. Citizen Kane, The Conformist, and Gordon Willis get special attention.
