Dingomaro: Iran's Black South

Discover an unexpected side of Iran.

Hamid Said, a famous black musician in Iran, is travelling by motorbike across the province of Hormozgan to organise a concert with the best black musicians in the country.

Besides Persians, Indians, Arabs and Europeans, Iran's "black south" has been influenced primarily by the descendants of slaves and merchants from Africa.

Although Shiites, they still hold Voodoo ceremonies.

Said must overcome numerous hurdles,including his wife, who is completely against his plan.

Since his Internet hit Bad Shans (hard luck), Hamid Said has become one of the most famous black musicians in Iran.

He's travelling by motorbike across the province of Hormozgan, which is situated in the South of the country on the Persian Gulf, in order to realise his dream - he wants to organise a concert with the best black musicians in the country.

Filmmaker Kamran Heidari accompanies Hamid Said as he attempts to make his dream come true.

Martin Lawrence Live: Runteldat

When Martin Lawrence takes the stage, it's more than an event... it's a no-holds barred comedy attack.

After his movie and TV successes, Lawrence makes a triumphant return to his stand-up roots in this "satisfying and truly funny" live performance.

Lawrence trains his sights on such explosive subjects as parenting, sex and smoking, and, in perhaps the film's most revealing and most powerful section, sets the record straight on his infamous brushes with the law.

Martin Lawrence isn't just back - he's bigger, badder and more hilarious than ever.

Too Hot to Handle 4

Ten young, hot singles from around the world come together in a tropical paradise for what they think will be the most exotic and erotic summer of their lives.

But there's a twist...

These commitment-phobes who love a casual hook-up, will have to give up all hanky panky for the entire retreat if they want to win the $100,000 grand prize.

No kissing, no heavy petting, and no self-gratification of any kind. With every slip, the prize money goes down.

In this luxury no-bone zone, will the serial singletons be able to form deeper emotional connections?

Or will the temptation simply be too hot to handle?

It's time to meet a brand new batch of horned-up hellraisers who have just arrived for what they think will be the sexiest vacation of their lives.

But with Lana watching, will this wild cast be able to stick to the rules and abstain from any kind of sexual contact (or self-gratification) in order to form meaningful connections, and keep that prize money as high as their sex drives?

The pressure's on, because this season, the stakes are even greater... with the biggest prize fund on offer, ever.

Genre: Documentary Series

Iran From Above

Let the viewer discover Iran from exclusive point of view: the sky.

With exclusive access to key locations, both for ground and drone footage, this film shows the natural, cultural wonders of Iran, a country that gave birth to an entire civilization: Persia.

For some years, the country is opening to the world while remaining a mystery.

This film reveals the splendours of Iran and takes us deep into the heart of its population, between air sequences and intimate portraits.

Iran displays the geographical and climatic extremes of an entire continent.

The fertile highlands are home to the largest, most significant cities and cultural sites in Persian history.

Between eternal landscapes and new geographies modeled by man, this series wants to make its way through the countryside and cities, to discover a population that embodies both traditional Iran and a country in constant change.

The series switches between portraits of women, men and traditions.

And this in places such diverse as arid regions, mountain villages or historical sites: Isfahan, Tabriz or Tehran and much more.

This series shows a kaleidoscope of today's Iran.
