The camera shake, the grain, the under- or oversaturated color — 16mm is the rose-tinted goggles of an era you didn't live through.

In a stroke of cosmic irony, Wes created the game for the same reason millions of people played it in the office — sheer boredom.

With the United Kingdom voting to leave the European Union last year, the future of a unified Continent has become unclear. The benefits of the Union — trade, health care, and travel between member nations — are clear. But the opaque political process and immigrant crisis have outweighed the advantages in recent years. Kurzgesagt looks at the history of the EU, what it was designed to accomplish, and whether keeping it around is worth the headache.
In China, there are entire markets devoted to cell phone parts — not surprising when nearly every component is manufactured and assembled there. Formerly a programmer from Silicon Valley, Scotty of Strangeparts wondered if he could build an iPhone 6S from parts found at the market.

Made from volcanic stone, Verve Culture's Molcajete prepares and serves traditional dishes the authentic way. The rugged surface of the mortar and pestle grinds and mixes ingredients as they did centuries ago, bringing out the natural oils in seasoning for meats or infusing flavor in guacamole and salsa. Like cast-iron, it continues to season over time and is oven safe, but will also need to be cured before use. The Molcajete arrives is a handwoven basket made from palm leaves and can be used as a serving dish for tortillas and chips.

Entrepreneur Sam Cossman traveled to Mongolia to train with Kairat Khan, a Mongolian eagle master. During his time with Kairat, Sam realized that modern technology can't compete with an ancient mastery.

The film will premiere on HBO May 20, 2017.
