			<description><![CDATA[This DVD is licensed for home use only*. NTSC, Region 1, Closed Captioned. For any educational use, see versions 1 - 3 listed separately.

&quot;JUMP! has all the right moves&quot; ___ The Hollywood Reporter

An award-winning, rousing, and fast-paced documentary about competitive jump rope, JUMP! follows five teams  from around the United States who push their physical and psychological limits in pursuit of winning the World Rope Skipping Championship. The sport is part extreme athletics, part art form and the kids create masterfully choreographed moves that burst with rhythm, sweat and originality.  Throughout drilling and mind-boggling performances, these unexpected trailblazers reveal what makes them tick and what sets each of them apart.  In the end, determination, rivalry and collaboration converge with dramatic and unexpected results.

Featuring an up-beat soundtrack shaped by renowned DJ Garth Trinidad and a fresh style, JUMP! is a powerful, energetic and inspirational film about discovering what it truly means to be the best.


&quot;Brilliant___. I am ready to go buy a jump rope right this second___. I genuinely loved this documentary___.[T]his story deserves to be seen.&quot; ___ Film Threat

&quot;lively and inspiring&quot; ___ Filmmaker Magazine
 
&quot;Seeing JUMP! with my students was one of the best field trip experiences I've ever had in my 30 years of work with inner-city kids. This film crossed all barriers.&quot; -___ Ms Refoua, Teacher, Los Angeles Unified School District

			<title><![CDATA[Flesh &amp; Blood  (english v.)]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[EVERY ARTIST NEEDS A CANVAS.
FOR STEVE HAWORTH, IT'S HUMAN FLESH.

He's one of the most controversial practitioners in the world of radical body modification.  He sculpts Teflon and stainless steel implants into horns, stars, and other objects, then surgically places them under people's skin.  Some of the most extreme looking people in the world have spent time under Haworth's knife.  They're people who've become bored with even full-body tattoos and piercings.  They're people willing to endure the pain.  They're people like David, who's on a quest to cover himself with stainless steel objects that are not only ornamental, but can be screwed in and out of his body.

Haworth is not a doctor and must struggle to keep it legal.  Yet he spawned a world-wide subculture fixated on his surgical artistry, all performed in his Phoenix, Arizona home.  Some come for a sexual charge, some for the pain, and many just to be different.  A few may be in over their heads.  &quot;Flesh and Blood&quot; is an unflinching glimpse into an intense and mysterious world Haworth helped to create, and the obsessed people who inhabit it.

THIS MOVIE IS NOT RATED.  IT CONTAINS NUDITY AND MATURE SUBJECT MATTER.  VIEWER DISCRETION ADVISED.

The DVD also contains 9 deleted scenes.]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[Secrets of the Soul]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[What is the soul? Is it genetically encoded in our DNA or the product of centuries of religious teachings dealing with our mortality?

Secrets of the Soul takes an all encompassing look at the search for the soul, from the faithful who seek to touch it to the scientists who investigate its reality. This two-hour documentary special explores the western belief in the soul as way of understanding the afterlife, and the eastern concept that it is energy recycled through reincarnation.

Scientists have long sought to confirm the reality of the soul since Dr. Duncan McDougall___s first documented attempt to weigh it at the moment of death. Secrets of the Soul focuses on contemporary researchers looking at medium-ship, past lives, and Near Death Experiences for evidence of survival of consciousness after death as a way of verifying the soul___s existence.

Secrets of the Soul provides a window into the provocative question of what happens when we die? Many believe that something transcends our physical body- for some there might be a scientific answer, for others it___s simply a matter of faith.]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[All of Us - Individual]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[Personal home video use only, not for school use or public group screenings of a paying or non-paying nature.

In the South Bronx, a young doctor embarks on a research project to find out why black women are being infected with the HIV virus at an alarming rate. Dr. Mehret Mandefro takes us into the lives and relationships of two of her female patients, Chevelle and Tara, as they identify and struggle with the social factors that put them at risk.

Chevelle, abandoned by her family as a teenager, became addicted to drugs and dependent on sex with men to get attention and cash. When we meet her, she's been clean for a year and is striving for financial independence. Tara suffered sexual abuse for much of her life and resorted to sex work to survive. Her current boyfriend is pressuring her for sex even though she is undergoing a series of invasive surgeries for cervical cancer. Despite her frail condition, Tara works to overcome her fear of saying no and gains new confidence along the way.

As Chevelle and Tara strive for more power in their lives and relationships, Mehret expands her research to include women across boundaries of race, class and country. She also begins to grapple with these extremely personal themes as they appear in her own life. A visit to Ethiopia, her birthplace, and candid conversations with her privileged girlfriends in New York, yield a startling realization: heterosexual women across the continents face a dangerous power imbalance in the bedroom. When she lets her hair down, steps out of her doctor's role, and confesses her own weaknesses, even this Harvard trained physician sounds just like one of us.

All of Us is about AIDS but it is not a tragedy. It is a story of resilience, sisterhood and courage.]]></description>
