First aid is my passion and my life. One traffic light turns red, another turns green: there's always something to do in Almelo. One of Herman Finkers' most famous quotes. Herman Finkers has been writing and performing theater programs since 1979. His programs are difficult to describe. He was probably best described in the Utrechts Nieuwsblad: 'master of the double punchline,' 'witty excess that does no harm,' 'sublime nonsense.' EHBO is my passion and my life is Herman Finkers' fourth program, recorded in the Leidse Schouwburg.

Every week, 10 elderly gays gather in a room lighten by neon lights in the LGBT Center of Tel-Aviv. Being part of a community that sanctifies youth, this intimate space is these old gays last and only shelter, where they can age and deal with aging openly: from sexuality and body image at old age, to loneliness and to the member's condition as widowers, divorcees and-or grandparents. Instead of the typical sociological and biographical documentation, the movie follows these witty seniors and their funny dialogues in the room and gives a humoristic glimpse to the ruthless process of aging.

This is the only feature directed by the famed French painter and sculptor Martial Raysse. In keeping with the revolutionary spirit of the time, the movie has no plot to speak of and appears to have been largely made up on the spot. We follow the cat man into a bizarre fantasy universe presented in negative exposure that reverses color values (black is white and vice versa) and written words. The cat man steals a car and then picks up a young girl he promises to take to “Heaven.” Heaven turns out to be a country chateau inhabited by several more animal mask wearing weirdoes...

In the middle of a broadcast about Typhoon Yolanda's initial impact, reporter Jiggy Manicad was faced with the reality that he no longer had communication with his station. They were, for all intents and purposes, stranded in Tacloban. With little option, and his crew started the six hour walk to Alto, where the closest broadcast antenna was to be found. Letting the world know what was happening to was a priority, but they were driven by the need to let their families and friends know they were all still alive. Along the way, they encountered residents and victims of the massive typhoon, and with each step it became increasingly clear just how devastating this storm was. This was a storm that was going to change lives.

In the present day, archaeologist Tapdig finds a strange egg during archaeological excavations and claims that this egg is a million years old. No matter how far-fetched it may sound, what he says is actually a reality in the parallel universe that existed millions of years ago. As Tapdig says, the tribal chief entrusts his son Dudu with the sacred eggs inherited from his grandfather, and instructs him to protect them, warning him that a great disaster will occur if these eggs break. However, by chance, one of the eggs falls from Dudu's hands and breaks, and Dudu is transported to the present day. Having fallen into the modern era, Dudu devotes all his energy to searching for the surviving egg (found by the archaeologist). In this, he is helped by the swindler Magsud, a journalist he has just befriended. However, the results are not at all as expected.
