Welcome to Dadetown! Established in 1802. A proud history of American patriotism and support during wartime. The townsfolk are always happy to greet you and welcome you into their town. That is until now. Now, the citizens of Dadetown are losing their jobs after working for the Gorman Metal Bending Facility for years. Why? All answers lead to the newest member of Dadetown; American Peripheral Imaging (API), but all they're doing is what America is all about; making money and adapting to the changing technologies of today's world. That's what angers the folk of Dadetown, however.

In today's cinema, this is an unusually moving film because "nothing happens", in a literal way, but in an emotional and philosophical way everything happens. The basic story is that of a cloistered convent of nuns at the end of the last century living out the daily rituals of the religious life until an infant is abandoned at their door. The only outsider who visits is the local doctor, Don Josâ, who decides to adopt the baby if the nuns will raise her. The conversations between the nuns and between the mother superior and the doctor are the substance of the story.

In the halls of Cedarwood, the curriculum is the same as we find in every other school; English, Math, History and ... CDT (Children Destroy Teachers)? Okay. So, the curriculum is a little altered to coincide with the special student body of Cedarwood. You see, the student body is comprised of "maladjusted children" and their curriculum is what's known as "Special Need Education". Burnt out by the constant struggle to teach these kids, the teachers of Cedarwood seem to be maladjusted themselves nowadays.

If power is the strongest aphrodisiac then The Champagne Safari is the finest portrait of sexual-prowess going. One of our century's most entertaining and intriguing figures, Charles Bedaux lived the Horatio Alger story and became a towering figure of political and commercial influence. Using footage of a bizarre Bedaux-led safari as the metaphor of our hero's psyche, the film unveils an unbelievable life story: Son of a lower-middle class family in France, Bedaux gave pimping a whirl before taking the emigrant's journey to the United States.
