Synopsis

La vie quotidienne à l'institut de Police de Nicolet ou comment on fabrique en série les défenseurs du pouvoir. " Le vidéo, un outil de pauvre. Mais un outil. Un outil de communication. Un outil de lutte simple et efficace. Malgré tout. " (Pierre Falardeau, 1975). / L'apprentissage du métier de policier à l'Institut de police de Nicolet est montré dans ses différentes étapes où s'expriment des attitudes conformistes et des gestes conditionnés. La caméra varie les prises de vues et les plans insistent sur la rigidité morale et physique de cet embrigadement qui incarne à la fois l'aliénation et la perte d'autonomie de l'individu.

The MOVE organization was originally established as a "back to nature" movement that practiced "green" methods. When their methods became more radical, featuring profane bullhorn speeches, unsanitary conditions, and questionable child raising, the group began to draw the attention of the Philadelphia community and the police alike. The conviction of nine members for the third degree murder of a policeman after a shoot-out in 1978 further cemented the group's belief that the police were corrupt and determined to bring the movement down.

(DVD description) Albert Fish tells the horrific true story of a sadomasochistic cannibal, child molester, and serial killer, who lured children to their deaths in Depression-era New York City. Elderly but still deadly, Fish was inspired by biblical tales as he took the stories of pain, punishment, atonement, and suffering literally as he preyed on victims to torture and sacrifice.
