Unlike her other novels, which were set mainly in India, ''The Nowhere Man'' is set in England, where Markandaya herself had been living since 1948.Charles Larson, [https://www.londonfictions.com/kamala-markandaya-the-nowhere-man.html Kamala Markandaya: 'The Nowhere Man' - 1972], ''London Fictions''. The novel's main protagonist, Srinivas, is an elderly spice importer who has lived in South London for almost fifty years, surviving his wife and one of his two sons. In the Britain of 1968, he now faces intensifying racism, reminding him of the slights he had once experienced as a university student in colonial India. As Srinivas slides into depression, the novel captures the cultural separation between first and second-generation immigrant generations: Srinivas's remaining son, Laxman, is impatient with and embarrassed by his father. For a while, Srinivas's self-belief is restored by a romantic relationship with Mrs Pickering, a down-at-heel divorcée, who moves into his house. However, their peace together is threatened by the racist hatred of their neighbours, to which they each find themselves reacting differently.Emma Garman, [https://www.thelondonmagazine.org/introduction-to-kamala-markandaya-the-nowhere-man-novel/ Introduction to The Nowhere Man], ''The London Magazine'', 16 July 2019

Forest ranger Finn Wheeler is assigned to cover Beaverfield, a small town where the residents are divided over a pipeline proposed by businessman Sam Parker. Upon arriving, Finn befriends mail carrier Cecily Moore while also meeting Trisha Anderson and her unfaithful husband Pete, wealthy couple Devon and Joaquim Wolfson, blue collar workers Gwen and Marcus, and isolationist Emerson Flint. That night, a blizzard knocks out all power in Beaverfield, forcing the residents to take refuge in a lodge owned by Jeanine Sherman. The power outage occurs right before Trisha's dog is killed by an unknown assailant, which increases tensions in the town. Further conflict arises when Finn discovers that all of Beaverfield's generators were sabotaged and the body of Jeanine's missing husband Dave is underneath the lodge's porch.

The residents attempt to barricade themselves in the lodge for safety, but Pete has his hand bitten off by the same unknown assailant. Environmentalist Dr. Jane Ellis, an opponent of the pipeline, concludes that the assailant is a werewolf who is one of the lodge's current inhabitants. After announcing her findings, Dr. Ellis dies in front of Parker under ambiguous circumstances; Parker claims she committed suicide.

Those remaining in the lodge initially consider staying together to force the assailant out of hiding, but ultimately all but Finn and Cecily leave for their homes. However, with tensions having reached a boiling point in Beaverfield, the residents begin to kill each other. After nearly all the townsfolk are killed, Finn is attacked by Parker, who claims Finn is the werewolf because he worked in locations where previous attacks occurred. Finn counters that there is no werewolf and Parker is responsible for the paranoia gripping Beaverfield. Parker gains the upper hand against Finn, but a dying Joaquim manages to kill him.

While Finn and Cecily recuperate in the town's bar, Finn learns that Dave was Beaverfield's previous mail carrier. He then realizes Cecily is the werewolf. Confronted by Finn, Cecily acknowledges she turned the residents against each other to make feasting on them easier. She subsequently attempts to kill Finn in her werewolf form, but Finn defeats her with the help of Emerson. Still alive, Cecily makes a final effort to attack Finn and Emerson before Jeanine finishes her off with a crossbow.

Mark, a teenage boy, has been stuck in a time loop, repeating the same day over and over again. After many iterations of the loop, Mark has perfected several routines and is able to aid other people by anticipating their movements. Developing a crush on a girl he gives directions to, Mark goes to the community pool to meet her again, saving her from being knocked into the pool by a beach ball. However, his efforts to spend more time with her are constantly frustrated. One day, while Mark is waiting to save the girl from the beach ball, another girl, Margaret, unexpectedly intervenes. Mark tracks her down and discovers that she is also living in the same time loop.

Mark and Margaret spend time together. Mark tells her about his desire to go to art school, and his father quitting his job to write a book on the Civil War; she talks about her dream of working as a mission specialist for NASA, and how she has been looking for a missing dog. They become close. Mark brings up possible ways they could break the time loop, but Margaret is not interested in trying to escape it. Every evening she hurries off after receiving a text from a medical student named Jared, who Mark speculates must be her boyfriend.

Mark and Margaret decide to look for moments of perfect beauty during the day; Mark conjectures that they might escape the time loop after finding all of them. To cheer Margaret up, Mark creates a mock-up of Tranquility Base in the school gym for her. Later, at his room, she sees a map he has created of the perfect moments. Mark leans in to kiss her, but she avoids the kiss, saying she doesn’t want to be more than friends. The next day, when his dad comes to talk to him about his future, Mark calls him hypocritical for chasing his own dreams while thwarting Mark's. After talking to his sister Emma, Mark learns their dad didn't quit his job, but was fired and was too ashamed to reveal it.

Mark suggests to Margaret that they might be able to break the loop if they go far away. They buy tickets to Tokyo, but Margaret leaves the plane before takeoff. When the plane crosses the International Date Line, Mark wakes up in his bedroom, realizing the plan didn't work. He decides to focus on others in the next loop. He invites his father to tell him about the Civil War, and attends Emma's soccer game, where she scores a goal that she did not score in the loops when he was not there. While attempting a skateboarding trick, Mark injures himself and is taken to the hospital. There, he sees Margaret visiting her mother, who is dying of cancer. Mark realizes that he isn't the center of this story, but rather Margaret is.

Margaret wakes up and manages to find the lost dog she has been searching for. She then has a conversation with Mark's friend Henry, whom Mark has repeatedly confided in about the time loop. After helping Henry win his video game, Margaret has an epiphany. She creates a three-dimensional model of the times and places of the perfect moments using string. The shadow cast by the model creates an image of a four-dimensional cube, with a single vertex missing. She determines that the final event will occur at 7:00 PM at the pool.

Margaret finds Mark sitting alone at the pool and explains that she is responsible for the time loop: this was the last day her mother is alive, and she was not willing to move past it. But she now believes that Mark was caught up in the loop too in order to allow her someone to move on with. The two of them kiss.

Margaret goes to the hospital and says goodbye to her mother for a final time. She and Mark go outside. At midnight it begins to rain, signalling that the loop has been broken. The next morning they finally return the missing dog.

Fred (Josh Ruben), a struggling actor and writer, rents a mountain cabin to try to write in isolation, and hires similarly aspiring writer Bettina (Rebecca Drysdale) to drive him to and from the cabin. Suffering from writer's block, he goes for a run and meets Fanny (Aya Cash), the author of the acclaimed horror novel ''Venus'', who's staying in a nearby cabin. Fanny is unimpressed by Fred's attempts to justify himself as a writer, and the two go their separate ways for the night. When a thunderstorm knocks out the power on the mountain, Fanny visits Fred's house. The two wind up drinking together, and Fanny challenges Fred to tell her a scary story and frighten her. Fred's first attempt at telling his story doesn't engage Fanny, but as she eggs him on, he tells her a tale about a young boy who saw his parents killed by a werewolf and grew up to take revenge, embellished by sound effects and voice acting. Fanny criticizes Fred for making his story about a white man, to which Fred challenges her to tell him one of her ideas in progress.

Fanny instead improvises a story about a young girl who attempts to kill her creepy grandfather but kills his dog instead, and is haunted by the old man and the dog after their deaths. In a moment of vulnerability, Fred admits that he's been searching for a purpose ever since he had a mental breakdown after his wife left him and he threatened to kill her. After ordering a pizza, Fred and Fanny collaborate on a story about a troll who lives in the walls of an Edible Arrangements store who entices a put-upon secretary to murder her sleazy boss in exchange for 300 years of life, but are interrupted by the arrival of Carlo (Chris Redd), the pizza delivery man. Fanny invites Carlo to stick around and tell stories with them. Carlo agrees, admitting he is a huge fan of Fanny's work. Together, Carlo and Fanny do cocaine and re-enact the story of ''Venus'' for Fred, who is visibly annoyed with Fanny apparently flaunting her success in his face.

Fred proposes a new story about a singer who makes a deal with the Devil to perform on a nationwide talent competition, but is possessed and forced to sing about widespread murder. Afterwards, Carlo leaves to go take care of more deliveries (after getting an autograph from Fanny), while Fanny goes to the bathroom. Fred reads Fanny's notebook while she is away, realizing she's been writing down all of their stories, as well as taking notes on him and his inability to accept that she's the better writer. Drunk and angry, he confronts Fanny with a fire poker. When Fanny berates Fred for his lack of talent and asks for her book back, he chases her around the house with the poker, but during the chase, he trips down the stairs and impales himself on it.

Bleeding and in pain, Fred begs Fanny to kill him so he doesn't have to suffer any more; she retrieves a log from the fireplace and raises it, but instead puts it down and leaves the house, leaving Fred to bleed out. Bettina arrives the next morning to check on Fred, finding Fanny's notebook while completely oblivious to Fred's corpse on the stairs. A mid-credits scene reveals that Bettina has written the stories in the notebook into a book of her own and is now a famous author in her own right.

The film takes place in August, 1941. The Red Army is moving east. Major Mlynsky leads a detachment that begins to fight the invaders in his rear.

The film tells about a girl named Marina, who was careless about any activity, saying: "And so it goes". And mother answered her that this was the name of the evil sorceress.

Jake (Andy Samberg) has reluctantly promised Amy (Melissa Fumero) that he won't tell Boyle (Joe Lo Truglio) that they are trying to get pregnant because of Boyle's tendency to overreact to everything Jake does, and Jake tries to avoid spending time with Boyle so he won't be tempted to tell him. Meanwhile, Adrian Pimento (Jason Mantzoukas) asks Jake and Boyle for help when he thinks he is being targeted by assassins. However, while Pimento is describing his history of events, they deduce that Pimento is suffering what Jake calls ''Memento'' disease and everyone else calls ''Finding Dory'' disease (anterograde amnesia), failing to remember anything from the past four months except that his most recent client hired him to find evidence of her husband's adultery.

They interview Pimento's doctor, Dr. Jones (Jim Rash), who explains that the numerous head injuries Pimento received during all of his dangerous missions are the cause of his condition and he has prescribed medication. Later, Pimento is shot in the shoulder by an unknown suspect and is taken to the hospital. While visiting him, Jake, desperate to confide in another person about his plans to start a family, tells Pimento, under the assumption that he will forget it immediately, the same way he has forgotten all of his other new memories. But Pimento refers to how Jake will be a good father in front of Boyle, which hurts Boyle's feelings that Jake didn't tell him first.

Jake deduces that Dr. Jones is the husband of Pimento's client trying to cover up Pimento's discovery of his cheating. Jones tries to restrain Pimento in one of the upper rooms of his skyscraper building, but he escapes onto the ledge. Jake and Boyle repair their friendship and help Pimento get back into the office safely. Pimento's full memory finally returns.

Meanwhile, the rest of the precinct is suffering through the annual Human Resources seminar on workplace conflict. Amy obtains a copy of the manual and suggests everyone study it in advance; this results in getting through the seminar in only four hours. But this backfires when told that the seminar must last the allotted six hours and so they will participate in extra activities to use up the remaining time. The extra activity involves the squad talking about their insecurities and soon, everyone turns against each other by mentioning all their flaws. However, they realize that revealing their flaws actually made them better people by trying to make up for everything.

The precinct is under pressure after 20 bricks of cocaine and machine guns from evidence disappear and are sold off. And unknown to everyone in the building, Debbie (Vanessa Bayer) is responsible for this. Despite her attempts to hide her actions, Hitchcock (Dirk Blocker) overhears her confessing to everything on the ladies room.

After arresting her, the squad discovers that she sold the cocaine and guns to a notorious mobster named Silvio Nucci. With Debbie refusing to testify against Nucci, Jake (Andy Samberg) comes up with a plan: a fake escape attempt, hoping it will lead to Nucci. Jake and Rosa (Stephanie Beatriz) pretend to be part of Nucci's gang and get Debbie out of the precinct and she takes them to her hotel room where she has the cocaine and drugs. However, Debbie starts using the cocaine, which complicates the mission. Debbie's shenanigans infuriate Rosa and she decides to blow her cover but Debbie's cocaine use makes her stronger and she knocks Rosa out and takes them to the mansion where she is meeting Nucci. Meanwhile, in an attempt to investigate Debbie, the squad recovers her many detailed journals, with some even spanning just half a day. The mission soon turns into a competition for Holt (Andre Braugher) and Amy (Melissa Fumero) to see who can win in a speed reading competition.

Jake attempts to get Debbie's burner phone to get information on Nucci but he is tied to a chair along with Rosa and Debbie's mother (Christine Estabrook), who just visited the mansion and saw Debbie's operation. Rosa talks to Debbie and acknowledges the similarities to her own struggles, and promises to help her if she will let them go. Nucci arrives and despite Jake and Rosa pointing their guns, he is still not scared until the precinct arrives to arrest him. He tries to escape with Debbie, but she punches him and knocks him unconscious. Debbie is arrested and will be fired from the force and sent to jail, but Rosa and Jake agree they will help her get a lighter sentence by working with her to express remorse and provide full disclosure, thus restoring their own professional relationship.

In the future, humans have formed an intergalactic empire ruled by aristocrats. During a time of war with the Plith, an empire of ant-like alien bug people, ambassador John Craig, a formerly Liberal Earth man in his 30s, is dispatched to the strategically important planet Kossar, a human colony that was settled by the Carlyle Society as a place of exile for political extremists and now is ruled by an oligarchical high council of seven nobles, each of whom is in charge of a different domain with its own traditions. Their boredom and absolute power have driven them to madness, to the point that Kossar's entry into the empire has been stymied by the Man-Inhabited Planets Treaty's clause (written by Craig) against alliances with slave owning societies, due to its practice of kidnapping humans to become illegal playthings of the galaxy's super-rich.

Craig, who now is campaigning to bring Kossar into the empire, had previously been to the planet when the passenger ship on which he was travelling on a return trip from the Betelgeuse Conference was captured by space pirates. While en route to Kassar, one of the pirates awakened Craig and the other prisoners to rape a 15-year-old virginal redheaded female captive in front of them; the rapist's fellow pirates later hear of this and dock his pay as punishment for spoiling her market value. Craig then spent two years as a slave of the beautiful, sensual, and sadistic Lady Morgan Sidney, the only female member of the oligarchy, with whom he became romantically involved. Together, they lived in her castle, ruling over and engaging in sexual relations with those under their dominion, including an enslaved teenager at a clinic used to breed enslaved people. When Craig stumbles on hints of an alien invasion, he realizes he must escape to save humanity.

Craig is depicted as undisturbed by Lady Morgan's sadism. When he is ordered to sexually assault the enslaved teenager, he enjoys his participation in the act.

While buying kilos of hashish in India, American smuggler Hugo Winter is offered a sample of a rare herb from Uganda called Bulu, which is said to bestow the powers of prophecy. In a Bulu trance, Hugo has a shocking, mystical vision of himself in Uganda. When things go badly for him in India, Hugo flees home to his family in London. Now deep in debt to dangerous gangsters, Hugo must find a way out, fast. Acting on his prophetic vision, Hugo travels to Africa to find more of this life-changing new drug and solve his money problems.

In Uganda, Hugo's Bulu visions lead him to a god-fearing farmer called Kisakye. This strong-willed young lady has unwillingly inherited the role of her late father, the village shaman, who cultivated and took Bulu to protect his village. Since the death of her father, Kisakye's ancestral land has been grabbed by the local pastor, Isaac. While Kisakye distrusts Bulu as ‘Satanic’, she needs money and agrees to work with Hugo to sell the drug abroad. However, Kisakye's sister Angela, has her own plans. She is working with a criminal gang to try and get Bulu out into the world market and sees Hugo as both an opportunity and a threat. After a close call with the criminal gang, Hugo and Kisakye travel deep into the Ugandan forest to the remote village of Makaana, where Kisakye cultivates Bulu in secret. Soon after they arrive, Hugo finds himself contending with the suspicions of the villagers and with the competing agendas of Kisakye and Angela. Kisakye is more honest, but she is uncomfortable with Hugo's wild ways and her new role as a drug dealer.

Hugo earns respect in the village when he prophesies, in a Bulu vision, the drowning of a local boy and manages to save him. However, pastor Isaac becomes bitterly angry with Hugo and Kisakye, accusing them of dividing the community. Meanwhile, Angela's eagerness to close a deal with Hugo becomes increasingly appealing when he receives news from London that his family has been attacked and he must return immediately.

Hugo's attempts to force Kisakye to give him her Bulu backfire and she pushes him away from the village with only a single hit of Bulu to take home. On the road home he takes the Bulu and has a vision of Kisakye being assaulted by pastor Isaac. Hugo returns to rescue Kisakye and, in the ensuing melee, the pastor is killed.

During the chaos, Angela steals Kisakye's supply of Bulu and flees from the village into the forest, pursued by Hugo and Angela. When Hugo catches up with Angela, she is killed in a violent struggle. Hugo, injured and lost in the forest, takes a very large amount of Bulu in an attempt to see his way out of the situation. Instead, the overdose pushes him into the shadow world of Bulu spirits and finally reduces him to a brain-dead state of limbo. Kisakye finds his comatose body and takes the money he had saved to buy the Bulu.

An elephant with a broken tusk arrives in Mumbai by train while holding a lotus. Looking around for further transportation, he spots Mickey Mouse with his auto rickshaw taxi. The elephant indicates that he would like to travel to a particular mountain, with Mickey agreeing to take him there, albeit insisting that a map is not needed. As Mickey drives the elephant through Mumbai, various cows keep blocking their way, reaching a point where a clear path to the mountain is obstructed by a large herd of cows. Mickey solves the problem through a Bollywood-style musical number, though he unwittingly ends up taking the opposite direction from their destination.

After 17 hours of driving, Mickey relents and asks the elephant for his map, upon which the two proceed to travel through a variety of challenging terrains, ending up in a town next to a river. Nearing the point of giving up, Mickey notices that the river's reflection shows the mountain to be nearby. Taking a pot of spicy curry as fuel for his auto rickshaw, Mickey and the elephant blast through town and are able to arrive at the mountain, though Mickey's taxi is destroyed as a consequence. The elephant gives Mickey his lotus in return for the transportation, then mysteriously disappears in front of him, with Mickey noticing that he is at a temple filled with many elephant statues. As he ponders, the lotus lands in a pool and opens up to reveal a new auto rickshaw with wings, which Mickey cheerfully rides out of the mountain.

Ko Young-Hwan, a published poet, is staying at a hotel on the Han River, where he is visited by his sons Kyung-Soo and Byung-Soo, the latter of whom is a well-known film director. The two brothers have a strained, jealous relationship and argue as they wait for Young-Hwan to join them in the hotel restaurant. Young-hwan falls asleep in a different part of the restaurant and misses them.

Also staying at the hotel is A-reum, a young woman pretending to have a badly burned left hand. She is visited by a friend, Yeon-Joo, who is concerned about A-reum's reaction to a recent breakup and appears to be distraught herself. While waiting for his sons, Young-hwan approaches A-reum and Yeon-Joo as they walk around outside the hotel after a sudden snowfall, remarking repeatedly on their beauty. Yeon-Joo is a fan of his work, but the two rebuff his invitation for a drink.

Young-hwan finally sees his sons, who have been waiting for him a long time. He tells them he has been staying at the hotel for two weeks after meeting its owner while drinking. The owner, a fan of Young-hwan's poetry, lets him stay there for free. Though he enjoys the accommodations, Young-hwan tells his sons he's been feeling strange, like his death is imminent, and that this is the reason he invited them to visit. He repeatedly notes that a nearby plant needs to be watered.

Byong-Soo worries that his father wants to die, but Kyung-soo, who was older when his father left the family, insists that he's strong. Kyung-Seoul does not tell his father that he is divorced. Byong-Soo is admittedly afraid of women, having had some "bad experiences." While the brothers are outside smoking, their father disappears. He returns with two stuffed animals as gifts for his sons, which he say represent them. He says that, while they "are of two minds," he named them with the intention that they would stay side-by-side forever.

The hotel's owner asks Young-Hwan to move out of the hotel, telling him that his heart no longer trembles with respect for the poet.

A-reum and Yeon-Joo hear Byong-Soo calling for his father. Yeon-Joo recognizes Byong-Soo, though she remarks to A-reum that his films are "ambivalent" and that he is "hardly a real auteur." The two drink wine, eat cheese, and lie down next to each other in bed, chuckling at Byong-Soo's voice. When she wakes up, she tells Yeon-Joo she was dreaming of her ex, who has returned to his wife, and remarks that he thought too much about failure, which led to the end of their relationship.

Yeon-Joo admits to A-reun that she stole gloves from a car parked outside the hotel that resembles one she was driving when she had a car accident. When they look for the car again, it is gone, but they find it outside a restaurant they visit later that night. They eat at an adjacent table to Young-Hwan and his sons, who are trying to understand the hotel owner's change of heart. The conversation later grows heated over the brothers' mother, who has intense hatred for Young-Hwan.

Yeon-Joo and A-reun debate whether or not to ask for their autographs. Upon hearing their argument, Yeon-Joo remarks that men are immature and incapable of love, although she says her husband is an exception.

Young-Hwan, drunk from dinner, abruptly tells his sons he is walking back to the hotel alone and hides from them until they drive away. He returns to the restaurant and reads a new poem to Yeon-Joo and A-reun.

The next morning, Young-Hwan texts his sons telling them he enjoyed their visit and that they should go home. When they go up to his room to say goodbye, they find him dead in his bathroom. In their room down the hall, Yeon-Joo and A-reun lie next to each other in bed, crying.

From the very first frames, the viewer is plunged into the atmosphere of an expedition, seeing everything that occurs through the eyes of one of the participants in the events. Frames shot on the shore are followed by footage from the side of a ship that has set off into the open ocean, after which the camera looks at the world from under water, watching how, from afar, come dolphins, appearing as if out of nowhere. Then we see a person in the water, who swims calmly and gracefully towards the dolphins. Contact takes place tactfully and tenderly: there is no touching, only an exchange of glances, mutual interest and a sensitive focus of each on the other. Much of the film consists of precisely such rare shots of interaction between a human and free pilot whales in their natural environment, the open ocean. The camera remains very close to the dolphins almost the entire time, as a result of which a sensation of presence, unhurriedness, gracefulness, relaxed concentration and smoothness is conveyed to the viewer. This is also emphasized through the long plans and style of editing employed. The film’s visual beauty is complemented by original music, a duet by a cello and bass guitar, that follows the movements of the human and dolphins, emotionally emphasizing what is occurring on the screen. The authors themselves speak of their film as follows:

The film’s meaningful content is expressed through the narration, which conveys to the viewer the thoughts of a member of the expedition who interacts with dolphins in the ocean. The viewer is asked a lot of questions: “Why do whales and dolphins not seek contact with us? What happens to the ocean as a result of them living in it? As a result of the fact that they are the only ones on the planet that never sleep? What do they do to the world through their lives, woven from attention and love? Why do they not respond in kind when we cause them pain? Where does the contact zone lie? What would our civilization be like today if it were guided by different principles, such as that feelings are more important and more perfect than the mind? Does each of us have a direct and immediate opportunity to communicate with the Universe?”

At the end of the film, prior to the credits, an inscription appears on the screen that is not voiced by the narrator: “Every year in the Faroe Islands, on the day of the traditional annual hunt, nearly a thousand pilot whales are killed.” In this way, the film is simultaneously a manifesto on the protection of cetaceans, urging people to think again and stop the destruction of some of the most aware creatures on the planet.

The next day, the family watches a survivalist training video on food preservation made by Alain, a charismatic, middle-aged survival enthusiast. After getting an invitation to visit Alain's cabin for a multi-day training session, Antoine drives out alone through a snowy landscape to the isolated camp, where he meets Alain. Alain has built a self-sufficient camp, with a cabin, greenhouse, chicken coops, a generator, solar panels, and batteries. Other survivalism enthusiasts arrive at the camp, including Rachel (a former soldier), Sebastien (a hunting enthusiast), Anna, Francois, and David, a paramilitary type.

Alain trains the students in handgun and rifle drills, snaring and field dressing small animals, and planting in the greenhouse. The students eat in Alain's cabin and sleep in a large tent. During the evening meal, Alain tells the students about his survivalist philosophies. He tells them that despite the general view that survivalists are extremists, he thinks the students are all excellent examples of what a "lucid citizen" should be. He says that if society collapses, he can live in his camp and supply his own needs, and he invites Antoine to think about establishing a home in the camp in the future. The students then learn how to build pipe bombs. Alain tells them that in the event of social collapse if a large number of "migrants with machetes" try to come to the camp, rifles alone might not be a sufficient defence. After testing a bomb, the students pack up the equipment. Francois is tasked with carrying a crate of bombs back to camp, it accidentally explodes, killing him.

Most of the students want to call the police and report the accident, but Alain and David refuse, saying they will all be charged with domestic terrorism or manslaughter, and Alain will lose his survival camp. Alain adjourns the meeting and suggests they decide what to do in the morning. The students agree and go to bed. From inside the tent, the students notice a sudden bright light. They step out to investigate. They see Alain burning Francois's body with gasoline. After protesting, most of the students try to leave the camp using Alain's snowmobile, but Alain shoots Anna in the leg. He and David carry her into the cabin where Alain tourniquets her wound and ties her up. The remaining students run into the woods. Sebastien is soon killed in a noose snare-trap. Antoine and Rachel escape into the bush, where they find a backup "bug-out" cache of arms and food prepared by Alain. The next day, the pair manage to get back to Antoine's car, but David ambushes them with an assault rifle, and Antoine is killed. Rachel has a shoot-out with David, and eventually kills him with blows from the butt of a pistol. She returns to the cabin, where she discovers that Anna has died from her wounds. Rachel sets fire to the greenhouse and takes the assault rifle to the upper floor to watch for Alain.

When Alain arrives at the parking area on his snowmobile, he finds the dead bodies at the parking area and he returns to his cabin. When Alain draws near, Rachel fires at him, pinning him down, but he uses smoke grenades to hide his movement and gets to the cabin. She disarms him when he enters her room, and they have a brutal hand-to-hand fight. Finally, even though she is injured, she incapacitates him. In the final scene, as Alain's previous speech about survivalism is heard in the background, Rachel loads the wounded Alain onto a sled attached to the snowmobile and drives out of the camp.

The film's storyline was set in the colonial period of the United States in the early 1770s. Reviews and plot summaries of the featurette published in late 1913 and 1914 describe the portrayal of a romance set within a province marked by public opposition to the local government. The story involves Lord Primton (Frederick C. Truesdell), an important landowner who lives on his estate with his widowed sister (Julia Stewart) and her niece, Lady Babbie (Barbara Tennant). The nobleman despises a new, exorbitant tax levied on citizens by Governor Dunmore. To gather allies to discuss a plan of action against the tax, Primton invites his friends to a lawn party, hoping such a common social event will not arouse the suspicions of government officials. At the party a young British officer, Lieutenant Byron, meets Lady Babbie and falls immediately and deeply in love with the beautiful woman. Their obvious attraction for one another is resented by her fiancé, who is an army officer as well. Rising jealousies soon prompt the fiancé to challenge Byron to a duel. When Babbie learns of the challenge, which is to take place at midnight at a nearby crossroads, she tries to stop it. She disguises herself in men's clothing, goes to Byron, and pleads with him not to fight. Her fiancé finds them together again, becomes furious, and draws his sword. Byron counters with his own sword, and in the ensuing clash he kills the fellow officer.

While the romancing of Lady Babbie and the deadly confrontation were occurring, Lord Primton sent his son to England to seek the king's assistance in overturning the unfair tax and to investigate the province's corrupt administration. Governor Dunmore becomes aware of those efforts, so he plots to destroy the elder Primton. After Byron is arrested for murder and sentenced to be hung, Dunmore offers him a chance to avoid execution if he agrees to find Primton, now in hiding, and bring him alive to the governor's office. The lieutenant agrees, although he is still unaware that Primton is related to Lady Babbie. Byron now searches for months but cannot locate the fugitive. He returns again to Primton's largely deserted estate, where Lady Babbie continues to reside. She entertains him there, but when she discovers Byron searching a room for clues to Primton's whereabouts, she accuses him of spying for the governor. Angered, she physically assaults Byron, but he quickly departs before either he or she is injured. Primton's son now arrives from his voyage with letters of support and instructions from the king. Dunmore now concedes, admitting defeat. Meanwhile, Byron is being held in the provincial prison, where preparations are under way to hang him after he failed in his mission for Dunmore.

Set in the Scarborough Bluffs, Toronto, the body of Christopher Drayton is found at the foot of the cliffs near his home. Esa Khattak, head of Community Policing has been called by his superior to investigate the incident, of which is presumed to be an unfortunate accident caused by walking through the unstable cliffs at night.

Esa and his headstrong partner Rachel Getty begin the investigation at Winterglass, the home of esteemed author Nathan (Nate) Clare. It becomes obvious to Rachel early on in their visit that Esa and Nate have known each other for years, yet the tension that fills the air leads her to believe that there is more to their relationship than meets the eye.

The two detectives then search Drayton’s home which is situated on the same street, finding a number of incriminating files and papers containing suspicious threats. There are a number of puzzles in the investigation, including Drayton’s relationship with Melanie Blessant and his planned donation to local museum Ringsong that specialises in Andulusian history.

From searching Drayton's home and researching into war crimes with the help of the Bosnian community, Khattak and Getty discover that Drayton was an alias for Serbian Drazen Kristic who oversaw the Srebrenican Genocide. Clues such as a tattoo of the Serbian cross, letters detailing the terrible crimes committed and a gun found in his home that was used by the Drina Corps, all led the detective pair to this conclusion. Tom Paley, Khattak's superior, wants Drayton's real identity to be kept a secret until they can find a way to reveal it to the Bosnian community of Toronto. After further investigations with the help of the community, they discover that many of the people involved in Ringsong are also Bosnian immigrants in disguise; they are aware of Drayton's true identity and are responsible for blackmailing the war criminal with letters and various other tools.

When this is uncovered, the detectives are forced to confront the verdict of the crime; is it a murder or suicide? Khan tackles the complex issue of justice and responsibility in relation to war crimes as well as the difficult topics of grief, suffering and genocide.

Entry

Romilly Williams youth in Pembrokeshire, Wales is happy, she is close to her Gran and her family's housekeeper, Jeanie, who shares with Romilly a belief in ancient truths. Her Gran tells her stories of past family gatherings as Karasay House in the Scottish Islands, and the mystery around Millie, Gran's mother, who visited once, refused to ever return and would never tell why.

Part I

Millie, sixteen year-old, goes to Karasay to stay with family friends as she is coming of age in 1901. Everyone is gracious and welcoming, but Rodger became a focal point as he is clearly fascinated by her. She has always felt more complicated emotionally than others and he seems to sense that. She and Jocelyn are attracted to each other, and Rodger starts harassing Millie. His malevolence becomes clear, and Millie tries to avoid him. Finally Rodger says to Millie that she must stop her involvement with Jocelyn, otherwise he will be harmed. Millie accidentally stumbles upon Rodger’s chamber of horrors – an old mine shaft he had converted into a place full of animal skins, twisted skeletons, small human figures made of clay, and other implements of evil. He tells Millie he had intended to marry her in time and initiate her into his way of life then, but since she had discovered him, it would have to be done now. He sliced both their wrists, made her promise to keep what she had found secret under pain of harm to Jocelyn, pushed their wrists together to pool their blood, and sealed the vow. He took an ancient stone ring from a string around his neck and forced it on her finger, ordering her not to remove it. On returning to her room, she takes off the ring and hides it in her room.

Jocelyn proposes to Millie, but she puts him off because of Rodger's threats. The next day she hears Rodger and Jocelyn arguing, she tells them to stop and tells Rodger that if he harms Jocelyn, she'll kill him. Jocelyn and Millie plan to wait until they've left the island to complete their engagement, when they're safe from Rodger. During a violent storm Rodger disappears - never to be seen alive again. Millie believes he came to harm in his hideaway, and keeps her promise to him of secrecy, knowing her silence could cause his death. She hopes it does. Jocelyn questions her, begs her to reassure him openly the she doesn't know anything about Rodger's death. They parted on uneasy terms, and a few weeks later Millie felt compelled to write to Jocelyn and break it off with him, for his own safety. Millie married James instead, they had a daughter they named Alison. But Millie never felt completely free of Rodger’s evil.

Part II

Romilly heard everything good about Karasay, and then the mysterious aspects as far as Millie’s behavior, which no one had every been able to explain. She went there with Gran, and got to know Cousin Derwant, and fell in love with it herself. Since she and Gran had spent so much time with the stories of Millie’s generation and the photos and all, she was able to easily imagine everyone being there when she was. In fact, she experienced actual time slips back to Millie’s time, on purpose, consciously, awake. It was only possible at certain periods of time – when the ghosts themselves were available, at the time they always were available, in Autumn. And it was only possible because she was Millie’s descendant, and because she wanted to be with them so much.

With all of that intensity of feeling, it also happened that Rodger’s ghost claimed her as well. With him it was all the opposite sensations – icy cold physical energy, fear, terror and revulsion. Romilly found the ring and put it on, and then she could not take it off. And once that happened, he appeared to her more frequently and more substantially. Finally she discovered the horror of his evil den. Miss Millie discovered it through her and set it all of fire, exorcising the evil spirits.

After that, the ring easily came off her finger, and she was distinctly aware that Rodger’s ghost was removed from Karasay House. She managed to surreptitiously place the ring in a historic museum collection without anyone aware, believing that in the locked-in location, its power was absent.

Three problem students (Dean, Duncan, and DJ Beatroot) are taken to the Scottish Highlands by teacher Mr. Carlyle to try to achieve the Duke of Edinburgh Award, which requires participants to navigate the Highlands as a team relying only on a paper map. The three are joined by the bookish student Ian, who wants to receive the award to improve his college application.

Carlyle drives off in the minibus, instructing the boys to meet him at a designated campsite. The boys reluctantly set out, but spirits rise when Dean reveals he has hash. Unbeknownst to them, a man watches through a rifle scope as the boys get high.

The boys encounter a farmer plowing his field. After getting directions from him, DJ Beatroot gives the farmer his mix CD. Sometime later the boys spot a man in upper class hunting gear and ask him for help, but as he nears they see he is wearing a mask and he begins firing at them. Fleeing, the stoned boys decide he must be the "Duke of Edinburgh." The bumbling Dean and Duncan manage to improvise a trap that improbably sets the "Duke's" leg on fire, forcing him to retreat.

The boys reach the campsite and find Carlyle, who has a burn on his right leg. Believing that he is the Duke and that he will kill them, Duncan sneaks to the minibus and runs Carlyle over. The other boys freak out, but they ultimately decide to make Carlyle's apparent death look like an accident by having the minibus drive off a cliff. However, after they put Carlyle's body in the vehicle, it starts rolling back down a long hill. Duncan says it will most likely fall off a cliff anyway and the boys continue on.

Meanwhile, the local police, Sergeant Morag and PC Hamish, interrupt their search for a notorious bread thief after Morag receives an erroneous report that Duncan is a terrorist and is loose in the area. They set off for the boys' last known location.

The boys then encounter the Duke again, who is joined by his equally insane sword-wielding wife, the "Duchess." The boys realize to their dismay that Mr. Carlyle was not the Duke after all. As they flee, Ian falls into a ditch and is separated from the others. DJ Beatroot then argues with Dean and Duncan and sets off for a barn in the distance while the other two head to a cave to ingest a load of powdered soup.

Inside the barn DJ Beatroot is shocked to find a large group of farmers who are big fans—the farmer he encountered earlier has been sharing his mixtape CD. He stays to party with them and holds an impromptu concert. Elsewhere, the Duke and Duchess capture Ian; Dean and Duncan, covered in powdered soup, hear his cries and rush off to help. Just as it looks like all is lost DJ Beatroot and the farmers appear and chase off the Duke and Duchess after stealing their weapons.

The next morning boys decide to hunt down the Duke and Duchess. They finally corner the pair on a shoreline. The villains, held at weapon-point, explain that modern youths must be culled because they are too bratty and ungrateful. Dean retorts that adults have wrecked the world and left young people to clean up the mess. Suddenly, more well-dressed, masked hunters join the Duke and Duchess, holding the boys at gunpoint. They prepare to execute the boys, when the minibus rolls off a cliff onto the hunters, crushing them all to death. The relieved boys look inside the minibus and are overjoyed to see that Mr. Carlyle is in fact still alive, if only barely. After makeshift medical treatment, the severely injured Carlyle springs up and says that the boys are in big trouble for trying to kill him. The police, Morag and Hamish, appear. As Carlyle tries to tell Morag about the boys running him over, Hamish discovers a huge stash of stolen bread in the back of the minibus—it turns out that Carlyle was the notorious bread thief. The boys cover for him by telling Morag that the van belonged to the crushed hunters. In gratitude Carlyle agrees to give the boys the Duke of Edinburgh Award and they are celebrated as heroes.

Nine finds the children and confirms Katsuma possesses the Quirk he seeks as Midoriya intervenes, managing to overpower him and Bakugo before being forced to fallback from overusing his Quirks.

Ben Tennyson, a 10-year-old from the city of Bellwood, and his smart-mouth paternal twin cousin Gwen begin their cross-country summer vacation with their grandfather Max in his RV, affectionally named the "Rust Bucket", but Max first helps Ben off a tree branch from which his school rivals Cash Murray and JT have hung him by his underwear. While camping at Yosemite National Park, Max tries to cheer up his grandchildren with camp-based activities, but neither will participate and Ben wanders off into the woods. Meanwhile in Outer Space, Vilgax, a Chimera Sui Generis warlord regarded as one of the most feared beings in the Milky Way, is commanding his warship, the ''Chimerian Hammer'', in pursuit of a small courier ship carrying the Omnitrix (a wristwatch-styled device capable of transforming the wearer into various alien species), intent on using it to equip an entire army under his control. As the battle reaches Earth's orbit, the deflector shields on both ships are disabled and the ''Hammer'''s bridge is hit by a powerful blast. Most of the courier ship is destroyed by return fire, but not before it jettisons the Omnitrix in a special pod that falls to Earth. Ben, who is very close to the pod's crash-landing, attempts to investigate, and the Omnitrix jumps out, fusing to his left wrist. After several attempts to get it off, he transforms into a Pyronite (dubbed Heatblast) and accidentally starts a forest fire. Max and Gwen notice the smoke from their campsite and try putting the flames out with fire extinguishers, but are surprised to recognize Heatblast and advise him absorb the fire via back-draft. All is explained back at the campsite as the Omnitrix times out, so Max leaves to search the pod for answers, warning his grandson against playing with the watch. Ben nevertheless disobeys despite getting caught by Gwen, and leaps back into the woods as a Vulpimancer (dubbed Wildmutt). Confined to a healing chamber, Vilgax sends a giant drone down to the crash site, where it destroys the pod and launches two smaller drones to search the area. They attack Wildmutt, who leaps atop one and sends it crashing into a cliff, whereas Gwen smashes the other with a shovel. Back at the ''Rust Bucket'', Max lectures Ben for going behind his back, but the discussion is interrupted by a park ranger's radio report of the giant drone attacking a nearby RV camp. The Tennysons deduce the watch as its target and head over to the scene, where Ben tries to fend off the robot as a Petrosapien (dubbed Diamondhead) whilst Max and Gwen evacuate the campers. The droid tosses Diamondhead like a rag doll, and he gets distracted saving Gwen from a falling tree. Realizing its lasers can bounce off his silicon skin, he goads the robot into firing one at him, which he redirects to its upper body, destroying it. The defeat of his drone upsets Vilgax, who vows revenge against whoever is keeping the Omnitrix from him, but nonetheless waits until his wounds are fully healed. Ben returns to Bellwood overnight as a Kineceleran (dubbed XLR8) and hangs Cash and JT from a tree by their underwear as payback for the similar humiliation earlier. When he returns to Yosemite the next morning, Max and Gwen are packing up the "Rust Bucket", so XLR8 helps speed the effort along in time to hit the road early.

Todd, a twenty-something man from Los Angeles with OCD, has difficulty in his romantic relationships as he has a strong aversion to bodily fluids. He likes the men he dates, but aside from an attempt at oral sex, he has never had penetrative sex with them. Eventually he decides to try dating women, and attempts to hook up with a girl after getting drunk with her but freaks out when her hymen breaks. His psychoanalyst wonders if this exploration of sexuality is a good idea, but Todd fears being alone and resolves to continue trying.

He soon meets Rory, a struggling actress who has trouble emotionally connecting with others, in the self-help section of a library.

Rory agrees to pursue a romantic relationship with him—though sex is off the table. After Todd introduces Rory to his parents, he worries that they might like him more because he's now dating a woman.

At an awkward Christmas party with Todd's friends where they play truth or dare, Rory walks in on Todd in a compromising position with his gay friend and leaves. Rory becomes increasingly unhappy with her life in LA, and decides to move to Seattle.

Some time later Rory has an established office job in Seattle, but still has problems connecting with her coworkers. Todd refuses to date anyone since Rory left. One of Rory's coworkers takes an interest in her, but she realizes they are too different. She calls Todd but hangs up before he can pick up. When she leaves work at the end of the day she finds Todd waiting for her. In an attempt at a grand romantic gesture, Todd proposes, but Rory declines. Todd makes an impassioned plea to her, tells her he loves her, and does not want to be with anyone else.

In Adventure Bay, a truck driver named Gus crashes and hangs over the town's suspension bridge. Cap'n Turbot comes across the scene and calls Ryder, who sends the PAW Patrol pups, Marshall, Rubble, Chase, Rocky, Zuma, and Skye, into action. Chase saves the truck driver.

Meanwhile in nearby Adventure City, the PAW Patrol's archenemy Mayor Humdinger had recently been elected mayor (although it was later revealed he was the only candidate on the ballot). Knowing of Humdinger's infamous wrongdoings from Foggy Bottom, a dachshund named Liberty calls the team and begs them to come to Adventure City to help keep the people safe from Mayor Humdinger. However, Chase refuses to go due to having a bad "history" in Adventure City when he was young. Ryder convinces him to go back while Chase reluctantly gives him his trust. The team arrives and gets settled into their new headquarters.

Meanwhile, Humdinger uses a device called a Cloud Catcher to clear up the weather so he can do his firework show. The show goes haywire and the team is alerted. They rush straight into a traffic jam, but Liberty arrives and guides them through alleyways and back streets to get to City Hall. They manage to take care of the situation, but Chase fails to save some people who are then rescued by Marshall instead. An infuriated Humdinger tells his henchmen Butch and Ruben to get rid of the PAW Patrol by any means necessary. That night, Chase can't sleep and keeps dwelling over his mistake, while the next morning Liberty revels in her first time helping her heroes.

The next day, Humdinger builds an extension to the subway line with several inversions similar to a roller coaster. It breaks and traps the passengers upside-down. The pups race to rescue them, but Chase freezes when his fear gets the best of him. Marshall manages to get the people down with his ladder while Skye goes to rescue Chase from the rooftop. Ryder suggests Chase should take a break from his duties, but this greatly hurts him and causes him to run away out of heartbreak after accusing Ryder of breaking his trust and giving up on him when things get difficult. Chase gets captured by Butch and Ruben and is taken to an obedience school-turned-dog pound where he meets snooty valley girl poodle Delores. While searching for Chase, Liberty and Ryder discovers that numerous dogs have gone missing and Ryder links them to Humdinger. Liberty gets captured on purpose and is taken to the dog jail where she rescues Chase and the other dogs who then chase Ruben and Butch.

On the way back to HQ, Ryder takes Chase to the street crossing where he saved his life. Ryder told Chase that he chose to save him, not out of pity, but because he was the bravest dog he ever met. Chase's collar is returned to him, and he declares that he will resume his duties. Meanwhile, the Cloud Catcher has gone critical and its creator Kendra Wilson confronts Humdinger. He destroys the remote and reveals his building called Humdinger Heights. The machine unleashes a week worth of bad weather. Kendra calls the team and Liberty is given her own vehicle and uniform, temporarily joining the team. The team drives to Humdinger Heights and forcing them to improvise. Chase managed to save the civilians, while Marshall, Rubble, and Rocky work to keep the civilians inside the building, Zuma and Liberty go to the canals to save a family, and Skye flies to the air to stop the Cloud Catcher.

Ryder takes the elevator to the top office and saves Humdinger by forcing him on an elevator and dropping him faster to the ground floor. He resorts to rappelling down the elevator shaft, but the storm destroys the tower and he is trapped in the building when it falls down. Chase drives up to save him and sees Ryder's light from the other side of the building. About to run to the other side, his pup pack malfunctions and he barked for it to be removed. Feeling like he can be brave while remembering Ryder's words, Chase takes a leap of faith and get to the other side, Chase sees Ryder pinned under the debris and works with him to get him free. After that, they share a moment and later leave the building while Skye destroys the Cloud Catcher in a kamikaze-style attack, ejecting from her plane before it crashes and flying back down to the city.

After this, the skies are clear again and sunny, Ryder and Chase get out of the building and the pups are relieved to see them safe.

On the distant planet of Ixax, the inhabitants have just finished a destructive civil war. One group of Ixaxians, the Tauptu (who do not have nopals, a type of brain parasite), won the war against the Chitumih (who all have nopals). The Tauptu are pleased that they eradicated nopals on Ixax. Now they wish to eliminate nopals from people on other planets, with Earth's inhabitants being the first target. The challenge with removing nopals is that the host human may die, unless a device called the “denopalizer” is used to dislodge the parasite by inflicting terrible pain on the host.

To accomplish their plan of ridding Earth humans of their nopals, the Tauptu kidnap a scientist from Earth named Paul Burke. The aliens force Burke to create a denopalizer device so that Earth inhabitants can be “treated”. Burke is suspicious of the Tauptuians’ motivations and approach, because they do not seem interested in his ideas for denopalizers that do not involve torture. Burke investigates the nopals, and discovers that another brain parasite, the gher, still exists in the brains of the Tauptuians.

The Tauptu were correct in discovering that nopals exist, but they did not realize that nopals have little harmful impact on the hosts, or that nopals keep the host safe from the malignant coercion of the ghers. Burke invents an anti-gher helmet that incorporates a deceased nopal, which enables him to protect himself from the control of the gher. He then takes command of the Tauptuian spaceship and uses it to travel to gher's homeworld. Once there, he kills the gher.

In a future society, all people are organized using a strict, scientifically-designed rational system. They are assessed, given a skills rating, and assigned to the job that best suits their natural talents and personality type. Their schedule, living quarters, the type of food they eat, and even their sexual experiences are assigned by a system. Conformity and compliance with rules are rewarded with access to private telescreens, individual rooms, access to better cafeterias, and a higher grade of erotic services coupons.

Luke Grogatch, an unhappy 40-year-old, is a bitter nonconformist who dislikes all of the jobs he has been assigned. After unsuccessfully trying a number of positions, Grogatch is demoted to a low-level job as night sewer maintenance worker, even though he is intelligent. He works for a huge corporation run by computers and a vast, labyrinthine bureaucracy. At first, he manages to keep up his morale in the mindless job by distracting himself after work with the company's group recreation facilities and communal telescreens, and using the lower-tier erotic services coupons he receives.

When the vast, bureaucratic management issues an efficiency improvement memo that extends the workday by three hours, all of the other workers accept it. Grogatch decides to resist the directive and undermine the order of society. Grogatch tries to complain, but each bureaucrat he talks to says the work hours issue is not their responsibility, and then “passes the buck” by telling Grogatch to see another department. Even though he is not officially allowed to raise his concerns with senior management, Grogatch uses his sewer worker uniform to get access to the offices of the top executives.

In ''Cholwell's Chickens'', Jean Parlier is wealthy from her reward from the previous venture on the space station, but as she is still a minor, she has to give a legal guardian, a fifty-year-old accountant named Mycroft. He warns her to be wary for grifters and con men who may feign romantic interest in her to get her money. She tells him she wants to go back to her home planet of Codrion to try to find her parents.

At Mycroft's office, she meets a strange 50-year-old scientist-entrepreneur named Cholwell. When Cholwell sees her he is shocked almost to the point of fainting, and asks what she is doing on Earth. Parlier finds this to be a puzzling remark, as she has never met him. Cholwell recovers and says he is seeking investors for a genetically-modified chicken cloning operation he is setting up on Codrion. Parlier dislikes the well-dressed, grey-haired Cholwell at this first meeting. When Colwell leaves, Parlier asks Mycroft to get her a ticket to Codrion.

Once at her home planet, Jean looks for clues to her past and her family. She starts by going to the bar formerly owned by her foster parent, a mean, harsh man with criminal connections. She remembers his abusive behaviour, which led to her killing him when she was a girl. She meets young bartender Gem Morales, and goes on a date with him. Gem is abrasive, arrogant and forceful, which reminds her of her dead foster father. People on her home planet keep mistaking her for another woman of the same age who looks like her and who has a similar personality, a hint that she may have one or more twin sisters on the planet.

In the attic above her foster father's old bar, she finds more clues in an old photo album, which lead her to Cholwell's laboratory facilities. She goes to see Cholwell's estate, only to discover that his claim of raising "chickens" was a front for his human cloning experiments. Jean then learns the truth about her parentage: Cholwell created her and seven sisters in the laboratory 17 years ago. This explains Cholwell's surprise at meeting her on Earth and the mystery of her doppelgangers on Codrion. When Jean learns that one of her sisters has been convicted of her abusive foster father's murder, Jean reveals herself to the authorities. Fortunately, under Codrion law, the uncertainty over the murderers' identity leads to an acquittal.
