- Anna is living the dream. Having rocketed from obscurity to internet stardom as electro-rap iconoclast 'Uffie' following the release of her breakout hit 'Pop the Glock', she is ready to take her place as socialite royalty, adored by indie boys and girls everywhere. Yet such a meteoric rise can never be without its associated pressures. Trapped between drug-fuelled hedonism, music industry bureaucracy and Myspace mania, Anna starts to wonder whether 'Uffie' is a character she can continue to play.
- They are about 30 years old and make films. Films with a big crew, big images, big intentions. But this time everything is different. This time they take the cameras themselves and film what they have never dared to film before: Christmas with their parents. A documentary trip through and on Christmas eve. Drawn alarmingly from real life.
- In 1960 the first contraceptive pill appeared on the US market. Suddenly, centuries of sexual mores defined by Christianity were put to a test - not to mention the perpetuation of humanity itself. Today, the birth control pill is the world's most widely taken drug. Over a hundred million women ingest the pill daily. Manufacturing this product is a lucrative and profitable business. New variations enter the world market at a rapid pace. While the pill has many supporters, it also has many opponents. The so-called "third generation" contraceptive pill advertises weight loss and other benefits to attract women. Some criticize its manufacturers for not clarifying that taking this drug exposes one to higher risks of embolism and thrombosis. Even though this product has already caused several deaths, it remains on the market. Hormones from the pills are entering global water systems with potentially detrimental effects. "The Pill: Atom Bomb of Contraception" follows the development of the birth control pill as well as its consequences. From the moral rigidness of 1950s America to the sexual revolution of the 1960s, the film highlights one of the most significant inventions of our century while asking provocative questions about the future of contraception.
