Scrap
A film by Stacey Tenenbaum
First Run Features
www.firstrunfeatures.com
$19.95 DVD / $TBA digital
http://firstrunfeatures.com/scrapvod.html
Available digitally on Amazon, Apple TV, and iTunes as well as in physical DVD format, Scrap is a cinematic documentary about recycling, especially the recycling of scrap metal objects, including run-down vehicles. Stories about the human connections to objects, the sense of loss when those objects break down, and the joy of giving them a new purpose add a heartfelt touch to this fascinating and educational showcase. Scrap is unforgettable, inspirational, and highly recommended for both personal and public library DVD collections. 78 min.

Doc Martin Series 10 presents the final season (including the feature-length series finale special) of the drama-comedy television series about a medical doctor and his family in a sleepy Cornish coastal town. In Series 10, a year has passed since Doc Martin (played by Martin Clunes) resigned his medical license, and now his wife Louisa (played by Caroline Catz) sees patients as a child counselor, while he takes care of their two young children. Mrs. Tishell (played by Selina Cadell) remains fervently obsessed with the Doc; Ruth (played by Eileen Atkins) tries to help the Doc fully overcome his fear of blood; and other residents tackle obstacles in their personal and professional lives. Then a prestigious opportunity arises for Martin - will it entice him and his family to move away from the quirky small town? A priceless treasure for connoisseurs of dry wit, Doc Martin Series 10 is a satisfying conclusion to a thoroughly engaging, long-running British television series, highly recommended. It should be noted that Doc Martin Series 10 is recommended for mature audiences due to some of its themes and subject matter. 9 episodes on 3 DVDs, 452 min., SDH subtitles.
