It's no ordinary morning at the Poplars - the master is found dead in his bed and it turns out that his high blood pressure was not the cause of death. Heyer uses her attention to detail and brilliant characterizations to concoct a baffling crime for which every single member of the quarrelsome family has a motive, and none, of course, has an alibi. Heyer's sparkling dialogue is a master class in British wit, sarcasm and the intricacies of life above and below stairs.

1941. In the middle of the Second World War, the German army puts in motion a plan to take control of the Strait of Gibraltar and, hence, close off the Mediterranean. The operation, which entails the installation of observation bases in the Andalusian coast and the north of Morocco, is carried out with the approval of Franco, who, nevertheless, still claims that Spain is neutral. When the British secret service discovers the details of this operation, they begin a race against time to thwart the plan. Their strategy: send spies to obtain proof of the operation and diplomats to try to influence the Spanish government. In the end, though, it is something completely unexpected that causes the failure of Hitler's plan and that, as a result, allows the posterior Allied landing in the north of Africa.

Unfolding against the poignant backdrop of the most costly natural disaster in America's history, MacGillivray Freeman's IMAX® cameras follow a group of four musicians, both legendary and rising, as they explore the electrifying culture of New Orleans: speed through the beautiful, alligator-filled bayous on airboats; recount their heart-wrenching, personal stories of Katrina; and most of all, bring the focus to the rapidly disappearing wetlands that are New Orleans's first line of defense against deadly storms.
