Kitty Jay is a collection of songs written and inspired by the stories and legends of Seth’s birthplace and home of Dartmoor--it’s an ambitious disc that attempts to capture the spirit and atmosphere of the wilderness of the moor. Ambitious it may be but he’s certainly succeeded. Over the 11 tracks he creates an impressively dark and brooding atmosphere, but this is contrasted by lighter and sweeter passages spread throughout – it’s a disc that feels natural and balanced.

Persepolis is a poignant story of a young girl in Iran during the Islamic Revolution. It is through the eyes of the precocious and outspoken nine year old, Marjane, that we see a people's hopes dashed as fundementalists take power - forcing the veil on women and imprisoning thousands. Clever and fearless, she outsmarts the 'guardians' and discovers punk. Yet when her uncle is senselessly executed - and as bombs fall around Tehran - the daily fear that permeates life in Iran is palpable.
As she gets older, Marjane's boldness causes her parents to worry over her continued safety. And so - at age fourteen - they make the difficult decision to send her to school in Austria. Vulnerable and alone in a strange land she endures the typical ordeals of a teenager.

The complete collection of Spaced!
Simon Pegg and Jessica Stevenson are Tim Bisley and Daisy Steiner - two hopeless twentysomethings sharing a flat and pretending to be a couple. Joining them on their urban adventures are wine-swilling landlady Marsha, the rather intense artist who lives downstairs Brian, Tim's best friend and would-be TA soldier Mike, and Daisy's best friend, the air-headed Twist. Together they tackle the big questions that the 21st century poses: who are they, what they mean to each other and who should switch on the kettle?

Two of cinema's most thrilling and dynamic female talents - the provocative Asia Argentino and the controversial Catherine Breilllat - join forces in this audacious and sexually-charged tale of lust and seduction.
Argentino gives an electifying performance as Vellini, the beautiful and headstrong mistress of Ryno de Marigny (Fu'ad Ait Aattou) an aristocrat who has taken the young and innocent Hermangarde (Roxane Mesuida) as his bride.
Lacking the emotional connection and carnal passion in his marriage that he shared with Vellini, Ryno attempts to resist temptation but eventually succumbs to desire, rekindling the illicit affair with tragic consequences...
