Blue Gold extended description (play trailer)

Synopsis:
Global Warming is an issue of "how" we live, the water crisis is an issue of "if" we live.

On every corner of the globe, we are polluting, diverting, pumping and wasting our limited supply of fresh water at an exponential level as population and technology grows. The rampant over development of agriculture, housing and industry increase the demands for fresh water well beyond the finite supply, resulting in the desertification of the earth.

Corporate giants force developing countries to privatize their water supply for profit. Wall Street investors target desalination and mass bulk water export schemes. Corrupt governments use water for economic and political gain. Military control of water emerges and a new geopolitical map and power structure forms, setting the stage for world water wars.

"Sounds the same sweeping alarms as Inconvenient Truth, only about our dwindling water supplies." – Toronto Star

Different (Dis) Abilities – Not Like the Others extended description (play trailer)

Synopsis:
Each child's life reveals the obvious, clarifies the confusing, and inspires all.

This documentary highlights the captivating spirit of the Texas Lions Camp – which provides special needs children one week each summer an escape into a world tailored for them. The primary purpose of the camp is to offer, without charge, a camp for physically challenged, hearing/vision impaired, and diabetic children - regardless of race, religion, or national origin.

What part of our human nature believes harassing, ridiculing, and excluding those who are different from us is “right”? What makes us “normal”? “Different Abilities” opens a window showing how abnormal is far more normal than we thought.

Note: We recommend viewing the film with an open heart & a full box of tissue.

Every Step You Take extended description play trailer

Synopsis:
Ready for your close-up?

With an estimated four million surveillance cameras, Britain is by far the most-watched nation on earth. How could this come about in George Orwell’s mother country? What were the ignition sparks for this development? Why haven’t other nations copied the schemes if they really are as successful as the Home Office and the police are saying? Is there a real effect in crime reduction or has CCTV only been introduced for the people’s ‘peace of mind’?

Our Heroes (and Their Ladies In Waiting) extended description play trailer

Synopsis:
The documentary was filmed during a reunion for the 109th Infantry Regiment Veterans of WWII. The Veterans and their families share their stories of survival, on and off the battlefield. It is a chance to see WWII in a new dimension, one that isn’t written in the history books, but in the hearts of these American Heroes.

The film is filled with personal photos from the Veterans, as well as very rare color footage shot by one of the Veterans with a camera he snuck
into combat. This 8mm footage depicts their lives from Normandy, France to the Huertgen Forest and very exciting footage shot during their famous parade in Paris, August 29th, 1944. This private collection has never been seen on television or in the theatres. In addition to their personal collections, their stories are told with archival films and photos from the National Archives, Library of Congress and from the Military Archives at the War College of Pennsylvania. The filmmaker, with her very tight budget, strived to find as many photos and film that were available of the 109th or their Division. Her most amazing finds are featured extensively in the interview segments that cover the battles of Normandy and the Huertgen Forest. Most Americans don't know that the Huertgen Forest battle was the worst defeat in U.S. Military history. It was a battle that the U.S. Army wanted to forget, but the film is a chance for the Veterans that survived this, to finally be heard and to be recognized for their sacrifices made, in what became known as the "Death Factory in the Green Hell".
