I want to see a video of an astronaut floating around in space (just have someone in the ISS go outside) and take a plastic water bottle and open it.
1. How do I get NASA to produce this video?
2. What would happen?

The water would boil and evaporate.

Weird. We have a painting by the same artist down the hall from my office.

Wait do you actually have a source on this painting? Please share I would like to see it.

Thanks for the very cool link brother but thats not what I asked for.

It would not boil as we commonly understand the word. Surface tension would hold it together, mostly. The initial "boiling" would be just from the surface, and as this is due to the escape of molecules with energy higher than the average of the water, the first few moments would cool it significantly, reducing the rate of evaporation. You'd end up with a sphere of cold water. Whether or not it iced up would depend upon the incident radiation flux.
http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2001/ast07sep_2/ is an interesting look at boiling in space, though those experiments are relying upon a heat source, so you get a much bigger bubble.

Just letting you know:

This generally works for unedited images. Once someone's resized it or added text, all bets are off.

Thanks anon(s)
The water would be frozen - thus the pressure would not be a factor in boiling

get out
NASA should send a conventional microwave up next time they resupply the ISS. It would make for some cool experiments as well as give the astronauts something hot to eat.

I suspect they don't have one out of fear of it causing interference.
