A generous doctor is aghast that the population of a small island is being oppressed and mistreated, but is seemingly unable to do anything about it, until the arrival of a young woman and the death of one of his friends prompts him into action.

Peter and Chloe, a young married couple from New York, decide on impulse to take a belated honeymoon on-board a research vessel en route to the icy wastes of Antarctica. Not long into the journey, Chloe begins to feel neglected and betrayed by Peter, who is focused on gathering information for an article he plans to publish on their return about the work of one of their fellow passengers, the whale biologist Roger Payne. After an unforgivable betrayal of trust by Peter, Chloe turns their fledgling marriage upside down by moving into her own room and staking out her independence onboard the ship. Drawing attention to the poles within each of us, the impressionistic story oscillates between the super-confined interiors of the ship and the vast open spaces of Antarctica. In the end, it's not until Chloe and Peter are lost - perhaps literally, perhaps metaphorically - in the Antarctic ice that they discover how essential one is to the other.

A humour empire like no other, the impact of the magazines irreverent, often shocking, sensibility was nothing short of seismic: this is an institution whose (drunk stoned brilliant) alumni left their fingerprints all over popular culture. Both insanely great and breathtakingly innovative, The National Lampoon created the foundation of modern comic sensibility by setting the bar in comedy impossibly high.

Kvindelige soldater i Irak og Afghanistan har i dag større risiko for at blive voldtaget af kolleger end at blive dræbt af fjenden. Også kvinder med tjenestested i USA er udsat for den galoperende voldtægtsepidemi i hæren. Det anslås, at 30 procent af kvindelige og 1 procent af mandlige soldater oplever at blive seksuelt krænket i løbet af deres tjenestetid. Samtidig kræver det både mod og stædighed at trænge igennem et nærmest kafkask militært retssystem for at få krænkeren anklaget og dømt. Den amerikanske instruktør Kirby Dick blotlægger her en af USA´s mest skamfulde og bedst bevarede hemmeligheder ved hjælp af interviews med højtstående militærfolk, politikere og ikke mindst hjerteskærende vidnesbyrd fra voldtægtsofre, som Kori, der blev voldtaget af en overordnet i USA´s kystvagt, Ariana, der i Irak blev voldtaget af en officer og hans ven, og Trina, der gentagne gange blev voldtaget af milit.....
