Based on the hit stage musical that the San Francisco Bay Guardian called, "smartly written, consistently funny, and well-acted," Bye Bye Bin Laden! follows the exploits of Osama bin Laden after deciding he needs a hit TV show to boost the Taliban's waning popularity. Will it be Osama of Mayberry, I Love Prakhbar, or Ask the Taliban - The Game Show Where the Taliban Provides the Answers?

After achieving great artistic success with his first two films (Strike and Potemkin), Russian director Sergei Eisenstein was commissioned by Sovkino, the Soviet film agency, to make a film commemorating the ten year anniversary of the Russian Revolution. The result was October, arguably his most bold and innovative film. Eisenstein?s innovative, radical use of intellectual montage and imagery (to stimulate the thoughts and emotions of the audience) creates an almost overwhelming cinematic experience.
