Synopsis

Corners of the Earth: Kamchatka

In February 2022, filmmakers Spencer Frost and Guy Williment, and pro surfers Letty Mortensen and Fraser Dovell started a journey to the unexplored Kamchatka Peninsula in far eastern Russia. After two years of planning, their adventure almost ended before it even started, when Russia invaded Ukraine an hour before their scheduled flight to Moscow. They went anyway.

Executions: The Rise and Fall of Capital Punishment

From ancient practices such as death by a thousand cuts and hanging, drawing and quartering to the modern scientific era of lethal injection, we ask the question: do the most horrific crimes deserve the most horrific of punishments?
