Incarcerated men defy the odds to expose a cover-up. In 2019, filmmakers visit an Alabama prison to film a revival meeting. Off camera, incarcerated men whisper a message: terrible things are going on here that are being kept secret from the public. This sparks an immersive 6-year investigation to discover the reality behind the walls of what the film calls “the nation's deadliest prison system.”With unprecedented direct access, the filmmakers learn from incarcerated men about a suspicious and violent death. The story unfolds in real time, revealing it isn't an isolated incident, and that the official version appears far from the truth. What follows is a shocking story of brutality, corruption, and a system in collapse. As the men fight for their own survival, they embark on a campaign of resistance, against all odds.Join us for a screening of the Oscar-nominated new documentary Alabama Solution, followed by a Q&A with director and producer Andrew Jarecki  This program contains EXPLICIT language.

Fresh off its award-winning run in Europe, Democracy Noir arrives in the United States as a very timely documentary film about how Viktor Orbán politically reshaped Hungary. It paints an incisive portrait of how Orbán used a free and democratic election to install authoritarian rule, enjoying widespread approval from Hungarian nationalists as well as from conservatives around the world inclined to his illiberal views. He changed the constitution, took over the courts and the media, and dismantled the rule of law. Admired by Donald Trump and the Heritage Foundation, Orban's influence helped shape Project 2025 and the current policies of the Republican Party. Democracy Noir tells this story through the activism of its three subjects: opposition politician Timea Szabo, journalist Babett Oroszi, and nurse Nikoletta (Niko) Antal. It details how unchecked power can quickly remove rights that once were taken for granted, and it shows how three women come to terms with their country's unravelling social and cultural landscape. Studying the recent history of another country whose political trajectory mirrors your own can bring clarity to your situation. Join us to view, and then to discuss, this example of an increasingly emboldened far right political party and the rise of autocratic politicians around the world.

“Ukraine is like porcelain, easy to break yet impossible to destroy.” —Slava Leontyev Join us for a Q&A with the co-director and the producer. Under roaring fighting jets as war ravages their homeland, three artists—Slava, Anya and Andrey—stay behind in their native Ukraine, defiantly finding beauty amid destruction.

Nathan Law was a leader of Hong Kong's Umbrella Revolution when he was still only 21 years old. By the age of 23, he was the youngest lawmaker ever elected in the history of Hong Kong. By the age of 26, he was “Most Wanted” under the government's National Security Law. Join us for a screening of Who's Afraid of Nathan Law? followed by a Q&A with Nathan Law (participating remotely) and director Joe Piscatella, and learn more about the courage, resilience and youthful idealism of Nathan Law, a young man who mortgages his own future to try to save his home. As a college freshman, shy Nathan Law discovers an identity in activism. As one of the organizers of a student strike demanding that Hong Kong be allowed to elect its own leader (something promised to them back in 1998), Law leads five days of student boycotts with a message of peaceful civil disobedience. When the strike suddenly becomes the Umbrella Revolution, Law is unexpectedly thrust into a leadership role that shuts down Hong Kong for 79 days and captures the attention of the world. When the movement falters, the government charges Law for his role in the Umbrella Revolution, but his entire generation in Hong Kong has been awoken. Riding the enthusiasm of the student movement he helped spark, Law makes the impossible transition from protest leader to elected official, becoming the youngest lawmaker in Hong Kong's history, where he continues his fight for democracy from inside the government. Fearful of his message gaining traction beyond students, the government disqualifies Law on a technicality and sends him to jail. As Hong Kong continues to see the erosion of its freedom, a new movement is launched. Whereas the Umbrella Revolution was driven by hope, this new movement is driven by desperation. Nathan's message of civil disobedience is overshadowed by a new generation of protestors who no longer feel that peaceful demonstrations can save Hong Kong, As Hong Kong descends into the biggest political crisis in modern Chinese history, Nathan must decide his role and his future.

Not since the fall of Saigon has a U.S. evacuation proven so devastating and controversial as the one that ended U.S. involvement in Afghanistan. The documentary Hollywoodgate picks up where the rest of the world left off, in the immediate aftermath of the United States' chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan in August 2021. Days after the last U.S. plane leaves Afghan soil, the Taliban—now in control of the country—enter an American base in Kabul called Hollywood Gate, reputed to have been a secret CIA station. There they find a portion of the more than $7 billion in sophisticated American weaponry left in the country: numerous small arms and munitions, jet fighters, Black Hawk helicopters, and other military equipment. Much of it is damaged, but the base is also equipped with many of the parts needed to fix it.  Director Ibrahim Nash'at's unprecedented and audacious Hollywoodgate bears witness as the new head of Afghanistan's air force, Mawlawi Mansour—a Taliban whose father was killed by the Americans—orders his soldiers to inventory everything and repair all they can. The men go to work restoring the weaponry and training themselves to use it. Among them is Mukhtar—a former Taliban fighter now aiming to build a high-ranking military career—who dreams of avenging the war. Following the screening of Hollywoodgate, we'll have a Q&A with director Ibrahim Nash'at and producer Shane Boris. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

As Marla Gibbs (look her up, Boomer. Did I get that right?) once said, “there's no place like home!” And she was obviously singing about Skokie, Illinois - home of a cookie cutter AMC Movie Palace so glorious, it rivals only Chicago's famous Esquire Theater, now home to a shuttered Dallas-based steak chain. (#Progress) Usually, Tony and T.J. only go on post-Bears game movie dates when it involves seeing the latest Marvel sequel to a Marvel sequel. (Turn up the volume on those explosions, projector man!) But a special field trip was made after a SEASON-TURNING BEARS WIN, to go see the limited, first ever theatrical release of Paul McCartney's “One Hand Clapping”. Is the film better on the big screen than tucked away on the “Band On The Run” Archive Collection DVD? Does the music rock even harder in the theater? What's the deal with popcorn prices these days, Obama? Tony and T.J. ask these salient and Soily questions, and also ponder from the backyard (of the theater):

A renowned documentary on the story of Bernárd Lynch and his ministry to people with Aids in New York will be screened in Miltown Malbay tomorrow evening.

How does neurodiversity impact creativity? On this episode, I explore the challenges of mental health and how it can be both a driver of astonishing creativity and the cause of significant pain. I believe that having conversations about mental health is crucial if we want to create an inclusive society and get the best out of everyone. To discuss this topic, I'm joined by the incredibly talented Matt Ottley, an author, illustrator, composer, and musician whose work spans multiple mediums and touches on profound themes. Matt's journey as a creative artist has been deeply shaped by his experiences with Type 1 Bipolar Disorder, giving him a unique, and sometimes challenging, perspective on creativity and mental health. Together, we discuss how Matt's mental health has influenced his artistic process, how he navigates the extreme highs and lows of bipolar disorder, and how these experiences have culminated in his latest work, The Tree of Ecstasy and Unbearable Sadness. This project is a powerful multimedia exploration of psychosis and recovery, blending music, art, and storytelling. Matt has generously shared some of his music with us for the episode, so you'll hear his words and his art. Whether you're interested in how art intersects with mental health, curious about how neurodiversity shapes creativity, or simply want to hear an inspiring story of personal challenges turned into extraordinary work, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.Biography of the Guest: Matt Ottley is an acclaimed Australian artist, composer, author, and illustrator whose work spans multiple disciplines, including visual art, literature, and music. Born in Papua New Guinea and later raised in Australia, Matt's career has seen him navigate a diverse range of artistic pursuits, from working as a flamenco and classical guitarist to composing orchestral works and illustrating children's books. However, what makes Matt's story truly compelling is how his experiences with Type 1 Bipolar Disorder have shaped his artistic journey.In addition to being a highly respected figure in the Australian arts community, Matt's work often delves into profound and deeply personal themes, particularly around mental health. His most recent multimedia project, The Tree of Ecstasy and Unbearable Sadness, is a powerful and immersive exploration of psychosis and recovery. This ambitious blend of visual art, music, and storytelling has been described as a groundbreaking representation of the experience of living with bipolar disorder. Beyond his personal website, Matt's work has been recognized globally. He has exhibited in major galleries, published numerous books, and collaborated with orchestras to create performances that fuse sound and sight. His art and music often reflect his internal experiences and challenges, offering a window into the complexities of neurodiversity. AI-Generated Timestamped Summary of Key Points: [00:00:00] – Introduction by Christian Hunt, explaining the episode's focus on mental health, creativity, and neurodiversity.[00:01:00] – Christian introduces Matt Ottley, highlighting his artistic career and experiences with bipolar disorder.[00:03:00] – Matt describes his childhood in Papua New Guinea and Australia and how his early creative talents emerged in unique ways.[00:07:00] – Matt discusses how bipolar disorder first began to shape his creative output and artistic development.[00:12:00] – Explanation of bipolar disorder and its various forms, including Matt's personal experiences with psychosis.[00:16:00] – The relationship between extreme emotions, creativity, and mental health and how they fuel Matt's artistic process.[00:23:00] – Matt describes his multimedia project, The Tree of Ecstasy and Unbearable Sadness, as a portrayal of his experiences with psychosis.[00:33:00] – Christian and Matt discuss societal challenges around neurodiversity, creativity, and the stigma attached to mental health.[00:47:00] – Matt explains his creative process, particularly how music, art, and words are deeply intertwined in his work.[01:01:00] – The episode concludes with reflections on empathy, neurodiversity, and the importance of understanding mental health.LinksMatt's website: https://mattottley.com/The Tree of Ecstasy and Unbearable Sadness: https://mattottley.com/product/tree-of-e/ CityLit Mental Wealth Festival: Saturday October 11th – Film Screening of The Tree of Ecstasy and Unbearable Sadness followed by a Q&A with Matt Ottley (via Zoom): https://www.citylit.ac.uk/events/mental-wealth-festival

On a recent Saturday, a Middlebury filmmaker tried to pull off a rather remarkable — or should we say re-BARK-able — stunt. To launch his latest film Inside the Mind of a Dog on Netflix, Andy Knight Mitchell decided to try to set a Guinness World Record for the most number of dogs to attend a film screening.

Join us to celebrate the 50th anniversary of August 8, 1974, the day President Richard Nixon resigned, and to remember an era in which there were still stark limits to what presidents could do and keep a straight face. Stephen Talbot will screen his film, The Movement and the "Madman", which debuted in 2023 on the PBS series "American Experience." Talbot's 82-minute film tells the story of how two major anti-Vietnam War protests in the fall of 1969 pressured President Nixon to cancel what he privately called his "madman" plans for a major escalation of the war, including the possibility of his threatening to use nuclear weapons. After Talbot's film is screened, he will answer questions about both the history of that time and his artistry making documentary films. Those who took part in the 1969 protests in the Bay Area are especially welcome to join the discussion, which will also include Talbot's perspective on the relevance of Nixon's resignation to our current international political situations―where threatening to use nuclear weapons no longer seems to cause irreparable shame and dishonor.

Eric D. Seals grew up eating just about every southern delicacy you could name: pulled pork, liverwurst sandwiches, fried fish, alongside his father, Donnie Seals Sr. Living in Wheaton, a west suburb of Chicago. He also watched his dad drink and smoke for almost 10 years, until 1995 when he almost died. Over the next fifteen years, Donnie would have a total of three quadruple bypass surgeries and be forced into early retirement.rnrnHowever, the story doesn't end there. Donnie is now 70 years old and bicycles more than 30 miles a day; his heart problems have all but disappeared. Having once been on more than 20 daily medications, he is now down to one and his doctors call his recovery miraculous. Directed by son Eric Seals, Bike Vessel follows father and son as they cycle from St. Louis to Chicago. The film takes a hard look at the health disparities plaguing Black men, and the systemic racism that has elevated them to one of the lowest life expectancies and highest death rates in the nation.rnrnPart of the Health Equity Series sponsored by the Saint Luke's Foundation, join the City Club, Bike Your Neighborhood, and the Greater Cleveland Urban Film Festival for a special film screening of Bike Vessel. Following the film, Donnie Seals will join a panel conversation about the documentary, health equity, and the transformative power of cycling.

Described as a "tender, atmospheric debut...set in a coastal town in southern Thailand", the reviewer wrote that the film "uniquely tackles climate change, tradition, identity, and LGBT love."I felt the same way -- it's a gorgeous meditation best seen in a theater.

The rural Taiwanese outer islands of Kinmen sit merely 2 miles off the coast of China. Kinmen attracts tourists for its remains from the 1949 Chinese Civil War. It also marks the frontline for Taiwan in its escalating tension with China. Filmmaker S. Leo Chiang weaves lyrical vignettes of tourist visits and local life with his own narrative as someone negotiating ambivalent personal bonds to Taiwan, China, and the United States. Island in Between explores the uneasy peace in these islands, and contemplates Taiwan's uncertain future. The film was recently nominated for an Academy Award in the documentary short category. See more  Michelle Meow Show programs at The Commonwealth Club of California.

Join us for a special discussion with filmmaker Mstyslav Chernov. 20 Days in Mariupol, nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature Film, presents a visceral, first-person view of the early days of Russia's invasion of the city of Mariupol, Ukraine. An Associated Press team of Ukrainian journalists is trapped in the besieged city, where they struggle to continue their work documenting atrocities of the Russian invasion. As the only international reporters who remain in the city, they capture what later become defining images of the war: dying children, mass graves, the bombing of a maternity hospital, and more. This is the first feature film from Chernov, who spent nearly a decade covering international conflicts, including the Russia-Ukraine war, for The Associated Press. The film draws on Chernov's daily news dispatches and personal footage of his own country at war. It offers a vivid, harrowing account of civilians caught in the siege, as well as a window into what it's like to report from a conflict zone, and the impact of such journalism around the globe.

Taiwan Film Festival of Boston (TFFB) is excited to have kicked off 2023 with a sold-out spring event co-organized with ArtsEmerson, Emerson College's professional presenting and producing organization, at the Emerson Paramount Theater in downtown Boston. We were honored to collaborate with Susan Chinsen, the creative producer and founder of the Boston Asian American Film Festival (BAAFF), which is a professional and international team, to jointly promote “A Letter to A'ma,” a documentary of young people in Taiwan searching for their roots and learning about Taiwan's history from the perspective of their older family members who are ordinary citizens. 2023 年波士頓台灣影展 (TFFB)的春季活動是與隸屬於 Emerson College 的專業製作團隊 ArtsEmerson 共同合辦 ，地點位於波頓市中心的 Emerson Paramount Theater。Susan Chinsen 是創意製作人，也是波士頓亞美電影節的創辦人。我們很榮幸能夠與非常專業且國際級 的團隊合作，並且結合波士頓亞美電影節 (BAAFF, Boston Asian American Film Festival) 共同推 廣這部帶領台灣人尋根、從庶民視角認識台灣歷史的紀錄片【給阿媽的一封信】 A Letter to A'ma toured in more than 18 cities in North America, including Washington DC, Atlanta, North Carolina, Houston, Los Angeles, Seattle, Northern California, San Diego, Michigan, Ohio, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Pittsburgh, Chicago, New Jersey, New York, and Boston. We were one of the stops in this relay race. Hosting this film screen challenged us to work as high performing team. All 170 tickets were sold out while more people continue to request tickets. Some even asked for standing spots. 活動當週，170 張電影票全部售罄，且仍有許多觀眾不斷聯絡我們希望可以再拿到更多的 票或者站著觀賞陳慧靈導演的作品。【給阿媽的一封信】是一場北美巡迴的活動，北美超過 18 個城市參與，其中包含華盛頓 DC、亞特蘭大、 北卡、 休士頓、 洛杉磯、 西雅圖,、北加州、 聖 地牙哥、密西根、 俄亥俄州、明尼蘇達州、威斯康星州、匹茲堡、 芝加哥、新澤西、紐約...等。 波士頓是這個接力賽中的其中一站，主辦這個活動是挑戰團隊合作與協調事務的能力。 After the event, Director Chen praised the Taiwan Film Festival of Boston team, saying: "I have never seen any team works so well. The members are young yet mature, and more importantly, every volunteer has an incomparable sense of mission and honor.” Over the years, she had only seen two teams perform at this level. One is TFFB and the other is the Golden Horse Film Festival. She was incredibly touched and encouraged by her trip to Boston.” 陳導演頻 頻讚美波士頓台灣影展說: 「從來沒有見過任何團隊做事這麼有方法，成員這麼年輕且成熟，更重 要的是每一位志工都有無比的使命感與榮譽感。多年以來，她只見過兩個團隊成員有如此的榮譽 感，一個是 TFFB, 另一個是金馬影展。她感覺波士頓之行帶給她無以言喻的感動與激勵。」 After presenting the film, the event featured a post-screening discussion hosted by Julie Wu, a second-generation American-Taiwanese with a literature degree from Harvard University and a medical degree from Columbia University, and the author of "Third Son.” During the discussion, the director spoke about the issue of identity as a Taiwanese. At the end of the discussion, the director recited a poem from the French poet Hugo in French. She expressed that identity is not a single-choice question but a multiple-choice question. Identity is not necessarily the place of birth or where you have lived the longest. Identity is not a noun but a verb; Taiwanese can be a collective achievement formed through the actions of each individual, and it is about what each of us decides to do. After the talk, many Taiwanese and non-Taiwanese audiences shared their thoughts with the director: Taiwan's story made them see the similar situation and common problems faced by their own country. 活動除了播放紀錄片還有映後座談，與談人 Julie Wu 是美台人二代，《三郎》是她的第 一本著作。她在哈佛大學獲得文學學位後，轉於哥倫比亞大學攻讀醫學，行醫幾年後專心在她的 寫作事業與育兒生活。映後座談，導演及與談人帶領大家討論身為台灣人「身分認同」的議題。 會後有許多非台灣的觀眾來找導演分享，他們說台灣的故事讓他們看見自己國家類似的處境以及 所共同面臨的問題。座談最後，導演用法文朗誦法國詩人雨果的詩，表達身份認同不是一個單選 題可以是複選題，身分認同不一定是出身地或身處最久的地方，身分認同不是一個名詞是一個動 詞;台灣人可以是透過每個個體的做為所形成的集體成就，是關乎我們每個人決定怎麼做。 Speakers (in order of appearance): Emcee: Sherry Lin, TFFB Moderator: Dr. Julie Wu Director: CHEN Hui-Ling Closing Remarks: Susan Chinsen (Creative Producer at ArtsEmerson & Director of the Boston Asian American Film Festival) In partnership with: https://taiwanfilmfest.org/ https://baaff.org/ https://artsemerson.org/ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/twdiaspora/support
