Stephen White made the opening film, Code of Silence which, despite its criticisms of modern medical practice, won a Bronze Award from the BMA. Shot in Japan, the United States, and Britain it examines the vital, but often troubled, relationship between doctors and their patients. Some scenes are both horrifying and disturbing.

| A film about the new space race - where the big prize money will go to the first group to design a re-usable space vehicle that can finally make access to space both cheap and routine. Governments, top aerospace companies, maverick rocketeers and entrepreneurs have all become infected with a bold new, often dangerous, pioneering spirit. From sublimely complex designs hidden in giant hangars, to back-yard attempts in the Nevada desert to cross the space frontier, we chart the progress of the latest American dream - which included Burt Rutan's recent X-prize-winning venture, Spaceship One.
