Madonna stars in "Star" (in collaboration with husband director Guy Richie) a beautiful rock star who always gets what she wants. Very scarce and rare to find, this collection of short films is very exciting as it is interesting. This is a promotional DVD produced by BMW.

Ambush
Directed by John Frankenheimer
On a dark freeway, a van swerves close to The Driver. From its open side door, masked gunmen threaten to fire unless The Driver stops and surrenders his passengers,
a man the accuse of smuggling diamonds. It's a simple choice: do or die.

Chosen
Directed by Ang Lee
The Driver meets a ship carrying an eight-year-old Tibetean boy at a dark, deserted New York shipyard. But he's not the only one waiting. The result is a thrilling, yet
beautiful, tale filled with mystery.

The Follow
Directed by Won Kar-Wai
The cunning and tactics of trailing another car quickly evolve into a mystery rife with deceit, as The Driver is hired to follow a woman accused of cheating on her famous
husband. You'll relish every turn in this drama of mistrust.

Star
Directed by Guy Ritchie
The Driver faces perhaps his most perplexing challenge: a hugely talented and beautiful rock star who always gets what she wants. See Clive Owen and Madonna star
in a battle of power against power.

Powder King
Directed by Alejandro González Iñarritu
Soldiers patrol fields surrounding a rural village in search of a photojournalist who has snapped a picture certain to unite the world against their leader. The Driver is sent
in as the photojournalist's only hope of escape
