TED playlists are collections of talks around a topic, built for you in a thoughtful sequence to illuminate ideas in context. This weekend, two new playlists are available: The power of film and Personal tales from the edge.

The power of film
These carefully curated talks emphasize the evocative medium of film — be it to convey emotion, to protest, to educate or simply to entertain.

Personal tales from the edge
What is it like to be on the verge of death … and pull through? These compelling speakers share what they learned from their unique experiences.
