Towelhead / Nothing Is Private (2007)
Drama
Against the backdrop of the first Gulf War, Jasira Maroun is 13, physically well developed but naïve and unable to say no. As puberty arrives, her mother sends her from Syracuse to Houston to her curt, up-tight, Lebanese-born father. Over the next few months, Jasira must navigate her father's strict indifference, her discovery of sexual pleasure, the casual racism of a neighbor boy and her classmates, the sexual advances of the boy's father, the proffered friendship of a pregnant neighbor, and her attraction to Thomas, an African-American classmate whom her father forbids her to see. Things happen to her, but can she take responsibility and control, or is tragedy inevitable?

In the 1880s orphan Jeb Rand is raised by the Callum family on their horse ranch after his own family is killed. Jeb is haunted by this childhood trauma in a recurring nightmare of flashing spurs and confinement inside a trap door as his family is murdered. Widow Callum does her best to make Jeb feel loved as he is growing up, but the young man stubbornly maintains a sense of his own identity. While he has great affection for his foster-sister Thor, his relationship with her brother Adam is tenuous at best, especially when Jeb blames him for shooting the colt that he was riding. Although Mrs. Callum blames the incident on deer hunters, she is aware that the shooting was actually the attempted murder of the youngster by her brother-in-law Grant, a shadowy figure who, for vague reasons, is determined to hurt Jeb.

A shockingly true tale of love gone sour and greed gone wild on the dark side of Las Vegas. Reckless casino executive Ted Binion had it all: money, power and a beautiful girlfriend, Sandy Murphy. That all changed when Sandy found him dead in his Las Vegas home in 1998, seemingly of an apparent drug overdose. But when Ted's estranged sister, Becky, informs police she believes Ted was murdered, a closer investigation reveals Binion's death was no accident at all. "Sex & Lies In Sin City" is the gritty portrayal of the investigation and trial of Murphy and her ex-con boyfriend who attempted to steal Binion's fortune by any means necessary. The film captures the unbelievably dark and twisted crimes – and subsequent shock – that swept through Las Vegas as the truth about Binion's last days became disturbingly clear.
