For more than a thousand years, the Salton Sink In southeastern California has been home to the largest body of water in the state. It is there because the San Andreas Fault is tearing southern California apart and the bottom is dropping out. Three hundred years ago, it was Lake Cahuilla, a freshwater lake, but changing geology, the whims of the Colorado River, and the negative side of extensive, industrial agriculture have resulted in a very salty and polluted sea. Once a booming tourist mecca, drought, agriculture, and failed development have produced a nearly dead body of water. All around the lake are fragments of broken dreams. One place, a most unusual one, continues to thrive.

In an effort to beguile their Devonshire neighbours, wealthy financier SIR GEORGE STUBBS and his 'subnormal' wife HATTIE prepare to stage a grand summer fete in the grounds of their new acquisition, Nasse House. No expense is spared, and the lawn is soon bustling with visitors keen to have their fortune told, to compete in the fancy dress and to try their hand at the coconut shy. And then there is the ultimate challenge: a fiendishly complicated 'murder hunt' prepared by the famous mystery novelist ARIADNE OLIVER. But Ariadne is perturbed. Convinced that someone is 'jockeying her along', she insists on the presence of her old friend HERCULE POIROT, who reluctantly agrees to apply his uniquely analytical mind to a crime that, as yet, only exists in Ariadne's imagination. The denizens and friends of Nasse are certainly an awkward and pernicious bunch: Poirot soon encounters the local Member of Parliament CAPTAIN WARBURTON and his imperious wife MRS WARBURTON, squabbling holidaymakers ALEC and SALLY LEGGE, lecherous architect MICHAEL WEYMAN, rambling ferryman JOHN MERDELL and the fete's uninvited guest, urbane foreigner ETIENNE DE SOUZA. And then there is AMY FOLLIAT, once the proud owner of Nasse, and now Sir George's pauperised lodger. Any one of them could be the killer; any one of them could be the victim. But what actually happens is utterly bewildering. Girl guide MARLENE TUCKER - volunteer actor in Ariadne's murder hunt - is found strangled to death in the secluded boat house. It seems like a motiveless act; but of course it is not. As Poirot and Ariadne try to pick their way through Nasse's web of secrets and lies, another mystery presents itself - the vanishing of vulnerable Hattie Stubbs. Where is Hattie? Who killed Marlene? Who really authored Ariadne's murder hunt? What is the significance of Sir George's ghastly folly? And can it be true that this is a mystery the great Hercule Poirot cannot solve?

By 1976, it seemed America was finally on the right track. The Vietnam War and the assassinations of several important political figures were behind us. Vice President Spiro Agnew's corruption was fading from the public's memory, and the crimes of Watergate forced Nixon to resign from the presidency. Americans were ready to be normal again. A new feeling was sweeping coast to coast as people pulled together to celebrate the nation's bicentennial, and to select a new president who could help close the book on an awful decade. FEELING GOOD ABOUT AMERICA: THE 1976 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION chronicles the race between incumbent Republican President Gerald Ford and Democratic candidate and Georgia Governor Jimmy Carter, who stepped onto the national stage touting his outsider status and promising, "I'll never lie to you." The documentary explores Ford's pardon of Richard Nixon, the anti-establishment sentiment surging through the country, Carter's primary strategy in a crowded field, and the challenge to Ford by Ronald Reagan for the Republican nomination. Using a combination of archival clips and interviews, the film examines this close race and discusses how the 1976 Presidential election was the last time in which the country wasn't polarized in the manner it is today. The documentary features: historian and author Douglas Brinkley; political analyst Larry J. Sabato; journalist and political commentator Fred Barnes; Carter's National Security Advisor, Zbigniew Brzezinski; and President Ford's son, Jack Ford; among many others.
