这部纪录片将呈现北美大陆上最壮丽物种的传记，一种不可思议、毛茸茸的野兽，它在许多令人激动、神话般甚至令人心碎的故事中扮演着核心角色。故事中，水牛给我们带来了很多思考。在19世纪末令人震惊的迅速消失浪潮中，仅存的最后一批较大规模的水牛群惨遭屠杀，当这个数个世纪以来数量庞大的的动物突然间只剩下几百头时，美国人不得不开始重视起来：他们竟能将一个物种推向灭绝边缘。 但是，如果水牛的故事代表了我们摧毁自然界的能力的最戏剧性的展示，它也提供了令人信服的证据，证明我们有能力将一个物种从灭绝的边缘拯救回来。美国水牛历史中最鲜为人知的部分是美国人意识到他们几乎令这种动物灭绝之后，为了弥补过错所做的事情。今天，美国有超过35万头水牛，其中大部分是20世纪初五个初始群体的77只动物的后代。这个故事——从未在电视上讲述过——和水牛消亡的故事一样充满戏剧性和扣人心弦，也同样充...。《少年巴比伦》讲述了上世纪90年代初，东南沿海小城——福城，一群在时代列车上追赶青春的少年，他们热烈而莽撞，肆意的野蛮生长。在寻找星辰大海中完成“平凡又不平凡”的蜕变，在青春最香甜灿烂的年代，努力迎向属于他们的光辉岁月，收获了成长与爱情。。Made for only $350,000 in 1985 when no one wanted to fund or star in a movie about lesbians, Desert Hearts is widely considered the first full-length lesbian love story, and its success paved the way for the proliferation of lesbian films we enjoy today. Directed by Donna Deitch and set in 1950's Reno, Nevada, Desert Hearts tells the story of a 35-year-old uptight female professor Vivian (Helen Shaver) who comes to town to file for divorce and ends up falling in love with a free-spirited 25-year-old casino worker Cay (Patricia Charbonneau). Although Vivian left her husband because she had "drowned in still waters," she is not quite prepared for the tidal wave-effect Cay has on her life. As Vivian herself admits, her life is all about "order," and her image of herself as a scholar and a professional, upstanding woman does not include a relationship with a woman. Cay, meanwhile, is living at home with her stepmother, Frances (Audra Lindley) while she waits to meet someone who "counts"--and she almost immediately recognizes that Vivian is that someone. Both women struggle with conflicting desires and a sense of obligation to others, and are ultimately drawn together not just because of their attraction to each other, but because each woman offers the other something she has been unable to find on her own.。
