(Garth Jennings / 2005 / UK-USA / 109 Mins / Cert PG) (Tues 5th / 8pm / £2ttt) One of the most enduring cult comic creations of the late 20th century, Douglas Adams' well trodden tale of a man who wakes up one day to find his best friend is an alien and that his planet is about to be destroyed to make way for a hyperspace by-pass, has threatened to find its way onto the big screen for well over 20 years. Adams' himself spoke with great passion about the project at every given opportunity, and spent much time and effort working to solve the inherent narrative problems in what was essentially an open-ended meandering picaresque tale which served as a vehicle for his observations on contemporary British life. Sadly Adams never lived to see his life's work complete - one of the bitter ironies being that his death sparked renewed interest in the project. One can be sure that were he still around, he would not be disappointed in the exceptional job by first time feature director Garth Jennings, who manages to capture the light wit and verve of the original radio series, whilst injecting a lively cinematic force into the overall narrative distinctly lacking in previous incarnations. Heralding a fine cast, and exceptional animations by London based collective Shynola, this certainly gives certain other sci-fi summer blockbusters a run for their money!

(Hassan / 2004 / Japan/UK / 61mins / Beta SP / no cert) (Wed 6th / 8pm / £4/3) Rehearse the Curse returns with more fresh documentaries examining street culture. Beautifully filmed, this is a lyrical discovery of Japan’s hip-hop scene. A thoughtful study, SCRATCHING THE SURFACE journeys through Tokyo, Osaka, Kanto and Kansai capturing a lively, evolving subculture and a creative facet of the international movement that hip-hop has become. Although taking some influence from American hip-hop culture and philosophising about the all pervasive issues of one’s street and hood, Afra, DJ Baku, Kan and their peers have their own unique perspective and talents. Renegade graffiti artists who discuss the minutiae of the spray cans they use and risk extortionate fines if caught in the act of ‘writing’. Whilst exploring the global nature of hip-hop, director Suridh Hassan immersed himself in Japan’s hip-hop milieu, interviewing rappers, beatboxers, breakers, graffiti artists and DJs to provide us with a refreshing and reassuring document of the continuing dissemination of the culture. Hip-hop DJ's in the bar...

(Thu 7th / 7pm-9pm / free) Amateur videos were once thought of as shaky footage of a baby¹s first birthday, but now they conjure the idea of being undercover exposés from community minded filmmakers. Increasingly new media technologies are being used by people to address issues of importance that matter to them. * What radical films are being made? * Who are the new producers? * How is this work exhibited and who gets to see it? And more importantly: * How can you get involved yourself? This event, part of the Fresh Five Young People's Film Festival, will screen a range of work produced with this independent spirit. Invited guests will speak about their experiences of activist filmmaking, and will give tips of how you can take the power of the media into your own hands. This is a FREE event, but tickets can be booked in advance via the Watershed Box Office: 0117 927 5100, or will be available on the door at The Cube on the night. Event organised by Firstborn Creatives, as part of Fresh Five, the South West's film festival for young people. To find out what else is going on at Fresh Five look at www.watershed.co.uk or contact Laura Gardner on 0117 927 6444 or laura@watershed.co.uk.

For fans of Acid Mothers Temple, Sunburned Hand of the Man, and, of course, Can. http://www.circlefinland.com/

(Thu 14th / 8pm / £4) A concert inspired by the free and spiritual music of one of the most charismatic and mythologised jazz musicians of them all. In the era of Vietnam, civil rights, and hippy culture, Ayler rewrote the saxophone rulebook with his unhinged, free form, holy other kind of blues. Drawing on spirituals, folk song, marches and, as he saw it, the word of God Himself, he had become the catalytic force in free jazz by his death in 1970. Tonight two specially commissioned performances from THE ALBERT AYLER PROJECT, a loose knit pool of leading musicians from the South West and London, bringing reworkings, improvisations and a little of their own cosmic transcendence to the Cube. FIRST PERFORMANCE: John Grieve (Tenor Sax) Graham Mackeachan (Double Bass) Roger Skerman (Drums) SECOND PERFORMANCE: Geoff Hawkins (Tenor / Soprano Sax) Pete Judge (trumpet) Diana van Loock (violin) Graham Mackeachan (Double Bass) Roger Skerman (Drums) In memory of John Boulding, musician 1947-2005

(Michelangelo Antonioni / 1970 / USA-Italy / 111mins / Cert 15) (Fri 15th / 11:55pm / £4/3) In the late 1960s, buoyed by his phenomenal success as an avant-garde filmmaker in Italy, Michelangelo Antonioni was invited to shoot a feature length film in Hollywood. The result was released in 1970. Zabriskie Point began as a commercial failure and a target of harsh criticism in the United States. At issue was the film’s lack of narrative focus and its verité accounts of the mounting civil unrest on American campuses, all in marked defiance of California boosters who were eager to placate the increasing political tensions that threatened speculative profits. Over time, however, it has come to be seen as one of the defining films of the counter-culture, capturing with halluciogenic precision the wasteland of post-hippy disaffection, and the alienation felt by many at the love generation's failure to change the world. Plotwise, there isn't much to speak of: at a student demo in California in 1969, mistakenly thinking that his bullet has killed a cop, Mark goes on the run. In the desert he hooks up with Daria, a secretary with a property company. Mark returns to LA in his stolen plane, while a frightened Daria carries on to her meeting with her bosses. However, from the early scenes of violent student protests and the faceless homogenisation of corporate America through to the explosive, iconic finale in the Californian desert, Antonioni's bold impressionistic images tell a far more important story. In fact, watching the film some 35 years since its first release one thing becomes clear: very little has changed but the soundtrack. Which, by the way, is a searing who's who of psychadelia, featuring original material by Pink Floyd, John Fahey and The Grateful Dead. Far out!

(Peter Watkins / 1971 / USA / 88mins / cert 15) (Mon 18th-Wens 20th/ 7pm + 9pm / £4/3/2ttt) Both controversial and relentless in its depiction of suppression and brutality, Punishment Park was heavily attacked by the mainstream press and permitted only the barest of releases in 1971. However, like Haskell Wexler's Medium Cool (1969) and Robert Kramer's Ice (1969), Peter Watkins' film has established itself as one of the key, yet rarely seen, radical films of the late 1960s/early 1970s. Giving voice to the disaffected youth of America that had lived through the campus riots at Berkeley, the trial of the Chicago Seven and who were witnessing the escalation of the Vietnam War, Punishment Park was named by Rolling Stone as one of their top ten films of 1971 and has earned many admirers in the four decades since its release. Set in a detention camp in an America of the near-future, Punishment Park's pseudo-documentary style (continuing Watkins' subversive innovations with Culloden and The War Game) places a British film crew amongst a group of young students and minor dissidents who have opted to spend three days in 'Bear Mountain Punishment Park'. The detainees, rather than accept lengthy jail sentences for their 'crimes', gamble their freedom on an attempt to reach an American flag — on foot and without water — through the searing heat of the desert. The pursuit of Group 637 — a lethal, one-sided game of cat-and-mouse with a squad of heavily armed police and National Guardsmen — is contrasted with the corrupt trial of Group 638 by a quasi-judicial tribunal.

(Gregg Araki / 2004 / USA / 105 Mins / Cert 18) (Tues 26th / 8pm / £2) "The summer I was eight years old, five hours disappeared from my life. Five hours, lost, gone without a trace..." These are the words of Brian Lackey (Brady Corbet), a troubled 18 year-old, growing up in the stiflingly small town of Hutchinson, Kansas. Plagued by nightmares, Brian believes that he may have been the victim of an alien abduction. Local Neil McCormick (Joseph Gordon Levitt - Tommy in Third Rock from the Sun) however, is the ultimate beautiful outsider. With a loving but promiscuous mother (Elisabeth Shue), Neil is wise beyond his years and curious about his developing sexuality, having found what he perceived to be love from his Little League baseball coach (played by Hal Hartley veteran Bill Sage) at a very early age. Now, ten years later, Neil is a teenage hustler, nonchalant about the dangerous path his life is taking. Neil's pursuit of love leads him to New York City, while Brian's voyage of self discovery leads him to Neil - who helps him to unlock the dark secrets of their past. Based on the acclaimed novel by Scott Heim, "Mysterious Skin" explores the hearts and minds of two very different boys who come to find the key to their future happiness lies in the exorcism of their collective demons. Gregg Araki (The Doom Generation, Nowhere) has carved a reasonably successful career presenting messed up teenage lives with an aesthetic fetish rarely seen outside of a Mapplethorpe photo. It seems that with Mysterious Skin he has displayed a coming of age, that lurking beneath the angsty goth-chic so alienating in his earlier work is a very tender, aching heart.
