Mysterious Ways: Watch the Trailer for U2 Doc 'From the Sky Down' (VIDEO)

"Making 'Achtung Baby' was the reason we're still here now." So says a contemplative Bono at the tail end of the trailer for 'From the Sky Down,' a new documentary about the recording of U2's seminal album which opens the Toronto International Film Festival on Thursday night. Glad you made the album, Bono! But will 'From the Sky Down' offer something other than expected 'Behind the Music'-like platitudes and foggy nostalgia? Probably? One thing that seems to set 'Sky Down' apart from usual band propaganda films is the look. There is some fairly inventive animation presented in the trailer, which calls to mind something like 'Persepolis' (or the story of the Deathly Hallows in 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1,' if you prefer). There's also the director: Davis Guggenheim, who won an Oscar for 'An Inconvenient Truth' and was also responsible for last year's 'Waiting for 'Superman''. The good news is that viewers won't have to wait very long to weigh in on 'From the Sky Down'; Showtime picked up the doc earlier this year and will premiere it on Oct. 29. Watch the trailer below and enjoy having "One" stuck in your head for the foreseeable future. Click here for more of Moviefone's coverage from the 36th edition of TIFF.

Three Discovery nets for Schleiff

Etkind Exclusive: Discovery Communications has reorganized three of its cablers -- Investigation Discovery, Planet Green, and Military Channel -- into a single group led by Henry Schleiff.With the creation of a support structure underneath him, Schleiff's title (prexy and g.m. of I.D., Military, and Planet Green) is more clearly one job, instead of three.The company is installing senior execs to head up both Planet Green and Military. Marc Etkind is moving from Discovery's Animal Planet to Planet Green, where he'll lead the net as senior vp of content strategy, and Ed Hersh has been upped to the same position at the Military Channel. Etkind's shows for Animal Planet include "Finding Bigfoot" and "Infested." Prior to working for Discovery Communications, his shingle Pinball produced content for Animal Planet and Discovery, as well as History.Both men will oversee programming development and the day-to-day affairs of their respective networks; Schleiff has had a direct hand in I.D. since its inception, and he will continue to run it directly.The reshuffle officially codifies all of Discovery's solely-owned cable assets into three discrete groups under three execs: Eileen O'Neill handles Discovery, TLC, and Discovery Fit & Health; Marjorie Kaplan oversees Animal Planet and Science, and Schleiff handles the new unit (COO Peter Liguori oversees the company's joint ventures).The new hierarchy has been slowly shifting into place -- Schleiff has been overseeing operations at Military for over a year, and at Planet Green since the beginning of 2011 on an interim basis. For a while, Discovery Communications's smaller networks were simply called the "emerging networks group" in-house. With some nets growing faster than others, though (Discovery chief topper David Zaslav touted I.D.'s growth in particular during last quarter's earnings call), that name doesn't quite fit. Meanwhile, Sara Kozak has been upped to senior vp of production for the group, and Doug Seybert has been promoted to senior vp of marketing. Contact Sam Thielman at sam.thielman@variety.com
