RiP!: A Remix Manifesto is a 2008 open-source documentary film about "the changing concept of copyright"
directed by Brett Gaylor.

Created over a period of six years, the documentary film features the collaborative remix work of hundreds of people who have contributed to the Open Source Cinema website, helping to create the "world's first open source documentary" as Gaylor put it. The project's working title was Basement Tapes, (referring to the album of the same name) but it was renamed RiP!: A Remix Manifesto prior to theatrical release. Gaylor encourages more people to create their own remixes from this movie, using media available from the Open Source Cinema website, or other websites like YouTube, Flickr, Hulu, or MySpace.

Gaylor traveled the world to find like-minded people who would help him draft the "Remixer's Manifesto" that makes up the structure of his open source documentary. The manifesto reads as follows:

1. Culture always builds on the past.

2. The past always tries to control the future.

3. Our future is becoming less free.

4. To build free societies you must limit the control of the past.

To further his point, Gaylor separates the corporations from the public domain. The corporations are called the "CopyRIGHT," and the public domain that represents the free exchange of ideas is called the "CopyLEFT." Gaylor and Gillis are clearly on the side of the CopyLEFT, promoting the free flow and growth of creativity and ideas.

11-Septembre - Dans les tours jumelles (titre original en anglais: 9/11: The Twin Towers) est un documentaire télévisé britannique de Richard Dale sur les attentats du 11 septembre 2001. Il est produit par la société de production Dangerous Films. Il a été diffusé pour la première fois le 3 septembre 2006 sur la chaîne de télévision américaine Discovery Channel, puis le 7 septembre sur la chaîne britannique publique BBC One. Le documentaire décrit le déroulement chronologique du drame à travers le destin de plusieurs des protagonistes. Il se présente en partie sous la forme d'un docufiction : les événements, remis en scène et joués par des acteurs, alternent avec les témoignages des survivants de l'attentat. Se mêlent à la fois images d'archives, événements reconstitués et entretiens. Le film a été plusieurs reprises sélectionné et récompensé. Il a notamment remporté d'un British Academy Television Award, et a été sélectionné aux Emmy Awards en 2007.

Le film aborde, par des dizaines de vidéos YouTube amateurs compilées, la guerre civile syrienne. Il narre la destruction et les atrocités commises lors de la guerre, filmées par des téléphones mobiles et postées sur Internet, compilées avec des plans tournés par Wiam Bedirxan pendant le siège de Homs (2011-2014). Le montage a été réalisé en association avec Ossama Mohammed, en exil à Paris, et les deux réalisateurs expriment leurs impressions personnelles.
