WRC 1985 - FIA World Rally Championship(2009)
The year 1985 saw some of the biggest investments ever in rallysport from several of the world's leading manufacturers. Audi Quattros - the first of the 'supercars', Peugeot with their new 4WD lightweight flyer and Lancia with the effective Delta S4. This action packed record includes Ari Vatanen's authoritative win in Sweden, the thrilling debut of the new Metro in the hands of Tony Pond at the RAC and the spectator packed tracks of Portugal and Greece. There's also the open plains of Africa, the yumps of the 1000 Lakes and the slick-tyred tarmac racing in San Remo. It is all here, filmed to a very high standard often from within inches of the cars as they hurtle past.

He commissioned a wealth of British talent, including editor Stewart McAllister, writer and future cabinet minister Richard Crossman – and, as treatment advisor, his friend Alfred Hitchcock. Yet, despite initial support from the British and US Governments, the film was shelved, and only now, 70 years on, has it been restored and completed by Imperial War Museums under its original title "German Concentration Camps Factual Survey".

Séfar, A City of Mysteries(fr)
Séfar (in Arabic: سيفار) is an ancient city in the heart of the Tassili n'Ajjer mountain range in Algeria, more than 2,400 km south of Algiers and very close to the Libyan border. Séfar is the largest troglodyte city in the world, with several thousand fossilized houses. Very few travelers go there given its geographical remoteness and especially because of the difficulties of access to the site. The site is full of several paintings, some of which date back more than 12,000 years, mostly depicting animals and scenes of hunting or daily life which testify that this hostile place has not always been an inhabited desert. Local superstition suggests that the site is inhabited by djins, no doubt in connection with the strange paintings found on the site.
