The Toronto International Film Festival (September 7 – 17, 2023) is one of the world's top showcases for documentary film. No doubt, numerous films from this year's lineup will be among the most acclaimed and talked about of the Fall awards season and beyond. DOC NYC co-founder Thom Powers, who has been TIFF's Documentary Programmer since 2006, joins Top Docs to discuss this year's selections, trends and standouts. The 2023 lineup includes new films from such renowned filmmakers as Frederick Wiseman, Raoul Peck and Lucy Walker, as well as works by some remarkably talented new voices on the documentary scene. Our Sundance roundup is one of our most popular pods, so we're thrilled to be able to take you on an insider's tour of the TIFF doc lineup with the perfect guide leading the way.

My guests today, Ryan Horrigan and Armando Kirwin, bonded over their mutual fascination with the future of entertainment and their desire to do something innovative, which led to the creation of their current company, Artie. We talk about pivots and micro pivots and staying sane through the million tiny conversations Cofounders need to navigate. Ryan, the CEO, and Armando, President and co-founder of Artie have a pretty radical vision for the future of social media— namely, to make TikTok, Instagram, Twitter and other social media apps the gaming consoles of the future. Before co-founding Artie, Ryan served as Chief Content Officer of the Comcast-backed VR & AR startup Felix & Paul Studios. He oversaw the development and production of feature films, including Academy Award Best Picture Winner “12 Years A Slave.” at Fox/New Regency, and is a two-time Emmy Award winner for immersive entertainment projects he produced with President Barack Obama and NASA, as well as a Peabody Award winner. Armando has been in the VFX world for over fifteen years, working with numerous award-winning directors, including two-time Academy Award nominee Lucy Walker, Sundance Grand Jury prize nominee Sandy Smolan on The Click Effect, which was nominated for an Emmy; and Imraan Ismail on The Displaced, which won the Grand Prix at Cannes. He also produced Take Flight, starring Benicio del Toro, Michael Fassbender, and Charlize Theron. His most recent VR film, Nothing is Safe (2022), was an official selection of the Cannes Marché du Film. While movies are a wonderful industry, they both saw the power and potential of gaming as a storytelling platform - and a financial juggernaut. If you didn't know: According to a report by SuperData Research, the global gaming market was valued at $159.3 billion in 2020. This includes revenue from console games, PC games, mobile games, and esports. Let's put that into perspective: the music industry was valued at $19.1 billion in 2020, and the movie industry at $41.7 billion. That means the gaming industry is more than three times the size of the music industry and almost four times the size of the movie industry. TikTok used to be where people just watched videos (as of this writing, TikTok and Netflix are nearly tied for eyeball-hours). Now, hundreds of thousands of people are playing games on TikTok thanks to Artie and the technology breakthroughs that make streaming app-quality games from within social media apps possible. But how did they get here? Through a million micro conversations about data, signals, stakeholders and what it all means. Artie is where are are today not because of one big pivot, but many, many micro-pivots over the course of years. Pivots impact the team - who you needed on staff when you were focused on one path isn't always who you need when you've decided to shift directions. Communication between departments and involving the team more is important - which means being intentional about regular check-ins and interdepartmental communication, but eventually, it comes down to the co-founder conversation - owning the choices that need to be made and moving forward, all while making sure you stay healthy and sane. Pivots vs Shaping Clay I loved this metaphor from Ryan, where he suggested that, from the outside, to investors, bloggers and customers, a company may have pivoted once, or a few times. From the inside, there are daily conversations, where the product is being shaped like clay, remade, refocused, almost constantly. “Listen to your body, have a Coach and a Therapist” This was one of my favorite insights from this conversation. It's not often that men talk openly about mental health and needing support. Ryan and Armando both have a coach (although they meet with that coach separately) and Armando advocated for having a therapist, while Ryan discussed how they got much much more intentional about listening to their bodies and taking down time. Armando suggests that therapy focuses on self-awareness, learning about yourself and your patterns, while his coaching focuses on future outcomes and goals. “You have to care deeply about your people, but at the same time, you can't care about what they think of you” Ryan quotes what he describes as a harsh-sounding notion from Dick Costello when he was at Twitter: In Ryan's experience, when you make a tough decision, you can't worry about everyone's collective feelings (even though you DO care about them as people and teammates). You have to make the decision that you, as the leader, believe needs to be made. As a founder, you have to make and own tough decisions. Ryan points out that, at the end of the day, you can't ignore tough decisions. You can't have someone else do it for you. He suggests that while these moments are hard, it's helpful to focus on the people who are still with you and the ultimate goals you're trying to achieve. Links https://www.artie.com/
A la fin des années 90s, le monde entier découvre le Buena Vista Social Club et se passionne tout à coup pour la musique cubaine. Il faut dire que le célèbre film documentaire de Wim Wenders y est pour quelque chose. Si leur musique s'est répandue dans le monde entier, c'est d'abord grâce à un gros fan de musiques, Nick Gold, et au bluesman Ry Cooder, qui décide un jour de réaliser un rêve : réunir d'authentiques musiciens cubains, des légendes oubliées pour produire un putain d'album ! Ce disque, paru en 1997, pourrait bien être l'album le plus important de la musique cubaine de la fin du 20e siècle, et à coup sûr celui qui a permis à ses membres de devenir mondialement reconnus.

As the CBSO prepares for a summer of tours to Aldeburgh, Japan, and the BBC Proms, the orchestra's new Chief Conductor Kazuki Yamada speaks to presenter Tom Service about the joy of music and the goosebumps he experiences while conducting. Tom travels to the South Downs to speak to Australian director Barrie Kosky about a new production, opening this weekend at Glyndebourne, of Poulenc's Dialogues des Carmélites. He's joined by sopranos Golda Schultz and Sally Matthews, as well as conductor Robin Ticciati, to talk about the story of sixteen nuns who meet their death at the hands of the French Revolution. Amid rehearsals at the Royal Opera House, Music Matters hears about the World Premiere of a new ballet, Untitled 2023 – a collaboration between the Royal Ballet's resident choreographer Wayne McGregor and composer Anna Thorvaldsdottir. They discuss the somatic relationship between body, dance and music, and why listening to Thorvaldsdottir's compositions is not a passive experience. And one hundred years after its premiere at the Aeolian Hall in June 1923, Tom speaks to the writer and broadcaster William Sitwell about his great-aunt Edith Sitwell's creative relationship with the composer William Walton – a collaboration which resulted in the entertainment, Façade. He's also joined by writer and researcher Lucy Walker. Together they discuss the work's nonsensical parody of popular music, jazz, and poetry and knotty issues it presents to contemporary audiences.
Are the tides turning on psychedelics? What once was considered a dangerous experiment might now be the answer to PTSD, depression, anxiety and other mental health problems. Lucy Walker, the documentary filmmaker of How to Change Your Mind, has studied the effects of various psychedelics and is convinced of the favorable treatment they provide. It may seem counterintuitive, but Lucy cites examples of how these drugs can lead to long-term sobriety. Tune in to hear about the studies and the existing roadblocks. IN THIS EPISODE: [03:00] Lucy describes why she produced the documentary, her experience with drugs and how she obtained the rights to Michael Pollan's book [10:12] How the illness of Lucy's sister spurred Lucy to delve deeper into research as she produced her film. Amanda and Lucy discuss the need for more discussion about death and dying [17:13] Lucy discusses her cancer and the misdiagnosis and how her recovery reframed her thinking about life [24:30] Lucy explains what components are necessary for her to choose a film project [26:55] A drug called ibogaine is showing promise with opiate addiction, and yet it is still illegal [30:18] The story of a friend who struggled with depression and trauma and fatally went on to use heroin and cocaine and died [34:54] The status of FDA approval and the decriminalization movement. The use of MDMA for PTSD patients and how it will be available in psychotherapist's offices KEY TAKEAWAYS: There are drugs used for cancer treatments and depression; hence the buzz phrase “nature's antidepressant” was born. Clinical trials suggest that psilocybin can provide remission from depression and anxiety. Ibogaine has anti-addictive properties suggesting promise in treating alcohol use disorders.

So I had renewed determination to use the time I had to be of benefit. “ - Lucy Walker “The fact is that psychedelics now are shown incredible promise for alcohol use disorder and all kinds of addictions, including smoking. Ibogaine has this specific property for opiate withdrawal, but lots of these other compounds, including psilocybin, are tools showing incredible promise. Couldn't we just use them in our world? It's so counterintuitive that something that's got this scary reputation, like psychedelics, could actually be helpful for anxiety and that a drug that we think of as an illegal, bad drug could actually be really helpful to combat, for example, drug addictions and drug use disorders.” - Lucy WalkerSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Sign up to our newsletter and never miss a release! | Visit our website I had the most fascinating conversation with film director Lucy Walker. Lucy talks about how she became a multi-award-winning documentarian, about the craft of making documentaries, what it was like to climb a peak in the Himalayas with a group of blind Tibetan children, what it was like to create art out of waste in one of the largest landfill sites in the world, how the Amish youth are set free in the hope they return to the community for life and many other extraordinary stories. Her documentaries are outstanding; they shine a spotlight on injustice and ignorance, they celebrate bravery against the odds, they uncover latent dangers, they are thought provoking, they inform and they challenge. She is a genius! Related Links: Devil's Playground Blindsight Waste Land Bring Your Own Brigade How to Change Your Mind
In this episode of the Pharmacy View Podcast, host Scott Carpenter, EVBC, has an exciting conversation with Lucy Walker, Owner of Terry White Chemmart Pharmacy, Goondiwindi. Listen in as the two of them chat about how technology can be used to increase efficiencies across the Pharmaceutical Industry with the goal of better serving the health needs of community members. Born and bred in Brisbane, Lucy moved to Goondiwindi for love. Based on her experience, Lucy believes that in a place like Goondiwindi, where everyone knows and looks after one another, working as a Pharmacist can be rewarding. She adds that the place has been supportive of embracing innovation and has allowed her to try new things. Then she goes on to talk about the three major technologies in use in the Pharmacy: 1. Spenser the Dispenser - BD Rowa™ - dispensing robots & digital selling solutions The business has been using Spenser for close to five years now. Lucy says that doing so has saved them time and effort. In addition to being able to multitask and prioritize tasks better than humans, Spenser has also been a draw card for the Pharmacy as people like to see a robot in action. Lucy's advice for anyone looking at using a robot in the Pharmacy is that they go for the best available technology and also one that is bigger than what one would expect because businesses always tend to get busier and grow. 2. Bister Bill - Home - Synergy Medical (synmedrx.com) Lucy is a Churchill Fellow, and that fellowship allowed her to explore global innovative Pharmacy practices. She was rather impressed by how blister packing was done in Canada and so brought the technology to her Pharmacy. Lucy says that blister packing technology has sped up the process and is much more accurate than humans. She says that what would otherwise take a week, takes as little than half a day with blister packing. She adds that a blister pack, however, is just a tool or a conversation starter with a patient who has a medication adherence issue. 3. Drones - Home - Swoop Aero Drones are the most recent addition to Lucy's team where trials have been ongoing for longer than expected because of Covid. Earlier, people would have to carry their paper scripts and walk up to a Pharmacy and collect their medication—either walk in themselves or ask or friend to collect it for them; sometimes even ask that Australia Post does the service. Things have changed now. There are e-scripts, and then there are drones. Even though licensing can be tough Lucy hopes that more and more people use it so that it becomes cheaper in the long run and more benefits are reaped—as in many other countries where the use of drones is more common and where it has a wider area of coverage.

If you're enjoying these podcasts as much as we enjoy making them, please leave a review wherever you find these podcasts.
Imagine launching a membership based on your passion… It's the dream, right? But what if you've built your business delivering classes in-person and are faced with the challenge of finding an online solution that will deliver the same value? And you need to do this in the midst of a global pandemic… That's exactly what https://lucywalkerjewellery.com/ (Lucy Walker) from https://lucywalkerjewellery.com/membership-plans/ (The Metalsmith Academy) did… And her story is awesome! She's only a year into her membership and has thousands of members… And while she's been hugely successful as a membership owner, the past year hasn't passed by without its challenges… In this episode Lucy joins us to share her journey so far… Listen to hear about: How the pandemic forced Lucy to put her entire business online and make the transition from offering courses to launching her membership. How The Metalsmith Academy launched with over 3,000 members in total, with 1,300 of them opting for the annual plan. The reasons behind changing her enrollment model from closed to open. How Lucy uses Instagram and YouTube to drive people into her membership funnel. Her approach to fostering a positive community and driving engagement. Key Quotes: “We try and get people straight into the forums. As soon as they join, the first thing we say on email is ‘Hey, go and say hi in the forums, I'll be there waiting for you. Come and introduce yourself” “With jewellery, it's such a practical skill. When we were teaching in-person classes you could just have a vague outline and show people then be there to guide them through their problems. With online classes, the clearer you make them, the less work you have to do in the background, so being online has made me be a lot clearer in my teaching.” “As a team we can often pack up and head off to a tropical island to work and that's absolutely amazing.” “I wish I'd started building an audience earlier. I wish we'd started concentrating on Instagram when I first started making jewellery, rather than doing it when I started the business because I had to.”
Australia is burning. And so is Greece, China, South Africa, Brazil, Congo, and even Siberia. And, of course, California is burning, more so than ever. In her eye-opening documentary “Bring Your Own Brigade”, Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Lucy Walker (“The Crash Reel”, “Waste Land”) skillfully lays out the causes and consequences of the terrifying, apocalyptic fires that represent a global crisis burning out of control. Focusing on the twin monster fires that engulfed Northern and Southern California on November 8th, 2018, Lucy hits the road to interview a wide range of experts, first responders, fire victims and Native American tribal practitioners to learn about the history behind California's ongoing and fraught relationship to fire. On a recent, calm California night, Ken spoke with Lucy about her vow to “get to the bottom” of why these horrific fires keep happening. Why did she decide, for the first time, to put herself in her own movie? As her thorough inquiry unfolded, in what ways were Lucy's assumptions about the relationship between climate change and fire challenged? And, as desperate as this situation is, why does she believe that something can be done to help prevent these catastrophes in the future? You'll learn a lot from this episode of Top Docs and maybe even experience a spark of something called “hope”. “Bring Your Own Brigade” can be streamed for free at CBSNews.com.

This week, Lucy Walker interviews Brigette Moore about her love for Laity Lodge youth camp, her role at Community First! Village, and what God has been teaching her about finding rest while being a new mom.
This conversation was part of the fall 2021 series "Weather Reports: The Climate of Now." The featured speaker was British filmmaker Lucy Walker. Following the aftermath of the 2018 Camp Fire (the deadliest in California's history), British filmmaker Lucy Walker directed “Bring Your Own Brigade” (2021). The film urgently asks: why are catastrophic wildfires increasing in number and severity around the world, and what can be done about it? Clips of the groundbreaking film will be shown throughout the conversation, even as the American West continues to burn. Respondent: Teresa Cavasas Cohn, University of Idaho, RPL Climate Change Fellow About this event series: "Weather Reports: The Climate of Now" is a ten-week series of online conversations with poets, writers, public servants, theologians, biologists, scholars, and activists who are engaged in the spiritual reckoning and awakening surrounding climate collapse, sacred land protection, and planetary health. Environmentalist, author, and HDS Writer-in-Residence Terry Tempest Williams will lead conversations concerning our response to climate chaos: How might we recast this a time of meaning rather than despair? How do arts and activism combine to let us see possibility instead of pessimism? Where do we find the strength to fully face all that is breaking our hearts?
(Recorded September 2021) British documentarian Lucy Walker is asking big questions with her latest film, Bring Your Own Brigade. Specifically, why are there more catastrophic wildfires worldwide, and what could mitigate the destruction? Her gripping film focuses on real people impacted by two 2018 California wildfires, “The Camp Fire,” which killed 85 and nearly destroyed the town of Paradise, and “The Woolsey Fire,” which devastated parts of Malibu. Lucy's camera takes you from the horror of people struggling to escape the wildfires to disbelief as residents reject steps that could limit future destruction. Lucy Walker's other films include The Crash Reel, Countdown to Zero, Waste Land, Blindsight, and Devil's Playground. Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com

Welcome to Flash Back Friday! With 600+ episodes, we're excited to revisit some of our favorites with our new listeners (and maybe new to our regular listeners).In this FBF, we're headed back to early 2021 to the Sundance Film Festival talking with Emmy-winning director Lucy Walker about her film Bring Your Own Brigade. Lucy shares her journey digging into the complicated history of California wildfires in her documentary (spoiler alert: we can't blame everything on global warming). Bring Your Own Brigade is timely as fire season has officially started in California and while this is an examination about the 2018 Paradise and Malibu fires - all of the investigation and reporting that Lucy shares in this film could make a difference now if we all take action. We know watching a documentary about wildfires may sound dismal, but believe us, there's so many good nuggets in this film we hope you'll move beyond that and support this film and filmmaker. Climate change is here but we can do something about it.

Filmmaker Lucy Walker joins us to discuss her documentary, “Bring Your Own Brigade,” which investigates the reasons behind the increasing number of wildfires around the world and looks at what can be done to mitigate the death and destruction they cause.
Bring Your Own Brigade is a gripping investigation into our landscape's hidden fire stories and on-the-ground experiences of firefighters and residents struggling through deadly fires. We discuss this incredible documentary with Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Lucy Walker. Lucy discusses her experiences filming intense fire sequences and what she learned from these personal and heartbreaking stories. Bring Your Own Brigade is the most in-depth look at the horrifying wildfire epidemic. It is a must-see film - you can see it now on the big screen in select theaters! It will also be available on the CBS News App and Paramount+ on August 20th.
The Taliban has now taken control of Herat, Afghanistan's third-largest city. To assess the latest, Bianna speaks with Barnett Rubin, who has advised the U.S. government on Afghanistan, and Ahmed Rashid, a longtime expert on the Taliban. This week a bipartisan group pushed a trillion-dollar bill through the Senate; hot on its heels was an additional $3.5 trillion budget blueprint. To dig into what these bills would mean for the American people – and whether they'll pass at all – Bianna speaks with former Democratic Senator Heidi Heitkamp. California is battling its second-largest wildfire ever. Exhausted and traumatized firefighters are trying to stop the blazes that are devastating the land and destroying homes. Oscar-nominated director Lucy Walker experienced such scenes firsthand when she embedded with a group of firefighters during the megafires of 2018, a story depicted in her new documentary, "Bring Your Own Brigade." Former U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara joins Walter Isaacson to discuss the revelations and to share his reaction to Gov. Cuomo's resignation.

In early November 2018, raging wildfires killed 88 residents and destroyed tens of thousands of homes in the cities of Malibu and Paradise, two very different California communities. In her new verité documentary, two-time Oscar-nominated filmmaker Lucy Walker captures the heroism and horror of that unfathomable disaster. Her character-driven exposé, BRING YOUR ON BRIGADE, also answers a question humanity can no longer afford to ignore: Why are catastrophic wildfires increasing in number and severity around the world, and can anything be done to lessen the staggering death and destruction they cause? Drawing on hundreds of hours of astonishing wildfire footage and featuring interviews with survivors, firefighters and scientists, the film reveals that short of solving global warming there are numerous, often simple steps that can be taken to not only mitigate the catastrophic devastation caused by wildfires, but restore health and balance to woodlands that have been mismanaged for far too long. But does society have what it takes to put aside short-term interests and outmoded thinking to confront a crisis that's quite literally burning our world to the ground? Director and Producer Lucy Walker (The Crash Reel, Waste Land, Countdown to Zero) to talk about her investigation into the reasons that social, political, climate, encroachment, logging, land management are just the beginning of why we should all be concerned about the coming Age of Fire. Bring You Own Brigade opens in theaters on August 6 and streaming on CBSN and Paramount+ beginning August 20
Möglicher Stromengpass in der Schweiz, USA und Deutschland einigen sich bei Nord Stream 2, Kambundji und Heinzer sind die Schweizer Fahnenträger in Tokio, vor 150 Jahren bestieg Lucy Walker als erste Frau das Matterhorn
Am 22. Juli 2021 ist es genau 150 Jahre her, als die Engländerin Lucy Walker als erste Frau überhaupt die Spitze des Matterhorns erreichte. Zum Bergsteigen kam sie, als der Arzt ihr empfahl, ihr Rheumaleiden mit Wandern und Bergsteigen zu lindern. Die Erstbesteigung des Matterhorns durch eine Frau löste viele Reaktionen aus in der so männerdominierten alpinen Welt. In der Sendung «Treffpunkt» schauen wir zurück zu den Anfängen, als erste Alpinistinnen auf dem Weg zu den Berggipfeln waren. Und wir schauen in die heutige Zeit und sprechen mit der obersten Bergführerin der Schweiz. Rita Christen ist in der über 100-Jährigen Geschichte des Schweizer Bergführerverbands die erste Präsidentin. Mittlerweile sind in der Schweiz 42 Bergführerinnen unterwegs. Dies entspricht einem Frauenanteil von gerade mal 3 Prozent. Für Rita Christen ist klar, da ist noch viel Luft nach oben. Gerne möchte sie sich einsetzen, dass es bald noch mehr werden.

Pedro Kos and Face2Face host David Peck talk about the new film Rebel Hearts, hypocrisy, patriarchy and institutions, reform and systemic change, movements and oppression, the power triangle, anti-intellectualism and why it’s so important to protest with joy.TrailerSee it at Hot Docs 2021 and find out more about the film here.Synopsis:In 1960s Los Angeles a trailblazing group of nuns, The Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, bravely stood up to the patriarchy of the Catholic Church, fighting for equality, their livelihoods, and their own freedom against an all-powerful Cardinal who sought to keep them in their place. Their bold acts of faith, defiance and activism turned the Church upside down, helping to reshape our society in ways that continue to resonate today. From marching in Selma in 1965 to the Women’s March in 2018, they challenged the notion of what a nun and a woman were supposed to be.These unlikely resistance fighters, including Anita Caspary, Helen Kelley, Pat Reif and iconic pop artist Corita Kent, were devoted to a life of service, not only to others but to themselves - forming a community that empowered each sister to live up to her fullest potential. Their desire to bring the church into modern life was met with forceful opposition at every turn. As each of them discovered their own talents and voices, they fully stepped into their roles as leaders in a movement that is still making waves.In the feature documentary REBEL HEARTS, director Pedro Kos combines incredible archival footage, stunning animation and two decades of interviews gathered by the film’s producer Shawnee Isaac-Smith, to beautifully illuminate the story of these incredible women.About Pedro:Most recently he wrote and produced Jehane Noujaim and Karim Amer’s Netflix Original Documentary The Great Hack which premiered at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival and was nominated for a Bafta award and shortlisted for an Academy Award.His feature directorial debut Bending The Arc premiered at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival. Previously, he edited Jehane Noujaim’s Academy Award nominee The Square which earned Pedro an Emmy Award for Best Editing for a Non-Fiction program, Lucy Walker’s Academy Award Nominee Waste Land and The Crash Reel (2013 SXSW Film Festival Audience Award winner), Jon Shenk’s The Island President (2011 TIFF Documentary People’s Choice Award winner) among others.Pedro is from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and received his B.A. in Theater Directing from Yale University.Image Copyright and Credit: Rebel Hearts and Pedro KosF2F Music and Image Copyright: David Peck and Face2Face.

Elle est connue pour être la première femme à avoir gravi le Cervin, en 1871, soit 6 ans à peine après l’ascension de son compatriote Whymper, la britannique Lucy Walker est à l’honneur d’Altitudes aujourd’hui. Son exploit fut à l’époque d’arriver en haut de la cime, mais aussi d’affronter tous les obstacles dressés sur sa route, parce qu’elle était une femme. L’historienne Marie-France Hendrikx a étudié son parcours remarquable, qui résonne encore aujourd’hui avec certains plafonds de verres toujours pas brisés. Elle est notre invitée pour nous raconter cette singulière histoire. "Il n’y a pas d’âge pour faire la montagne": c’est ce que Loïc, 24 ans, a toujours dit à sa grand-maman Claudine, 78 ans. Alors il l’emmène sur les 4000, grimper des falaises ou faire des courses d’arrêtes. Petit-Combin, Breithorn, Perrons de Vallorcine… rien ne les arrête! Claudine a commencé la montagne à 70 ans avec son petit-fils. Maya Chollet les a suivis aux Gais Alpins, une petite arrête sur la Dent d’Hautaudon entre la Dent de Jaman et les Rochers de Naye.

Hello my lovelies, This week I got two treats for you, first is the book Man's Search for Meaning from psychiatrist Viktor Frankl's memoir who describe the of what life was in Nazi death camps and its lessons for spiritual survival. Based on his own experience and the stories of his patients, Frankl argues that we cannot avoid suffering but we can choose how to cope with it, find meaning in it, and move forward with renewed purpose. Man's Search for Meaning has become one of the most influential books in America; it continues to inspire us all to find significance in the very act of living. Here is the link: https://www.amazon.com/Mans-Search-Meaning-Viktor-Frankl/product-reviews/080701429X The second treat is this documentary that made me cry for the human spirit through out, just an amazing experience, and an awesome happy ending. This Oscar-nominated documentary by Lucy Walker is about the Brazilian artist and photographer Vik Muniz and his work with the "pickers", or catadores, who eke out an existence scavenging scraps from Rio's colossal city garbage dump. The title avowedly refers to TS Eliot's poem, but what Walker thinks she's showing us in her handful of dust is not fear, but life-affirming hope. Some might find the movie's take-home optimism naive and Muniz's attitude itself open to question. But this is undoubtedly a bold raid into an unknown territory – both geographic and conceptual – that the prosperous classes prefer not to think about. (This is a review from the Guardian’s Peter Bradshaw which I copy and paste because it explain far better than I ever could) and here is the link: https://www.theguardian.com/film/2011/feb/24/waste-land-review Documentary link: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1268204/?ref_=tt_urv Thank you for listening or reading.

In our curated poetry content episode, Assistant Poetry Editor Brynn Bogert invites three Sarah Lawrence graduate poets to share current work and to discuss the various facets of their pieces in casual post-reading interviews. We hear from Shuang Ang, Emma Stewart, and Lucy Walker. Throughout these poems, a sense of permeability and duality weaves itself into three very different narratives. These poems explore borderlands; thresholds; tent flaps, and the impermanence of petals and pearls. They travel the spaces between what is true, what is allowed, and what is lurking just beneath or behind what our eyes can register. Theme music for the podcast was composed by musical artist and producer, Myles Karp.

We were so lucky to sit down for a second conversation with Marianna Palka. She’s a triple threat artist (writer/director/actor) with such a singular vision and voice to bring us closer together, change humanity and give the world a deeper understanding of the human condition. This is a conversation about creating the kind of work that is so needed in our landscape today. Her first film “Good Dick” came from a desire to explore how a sexual assault victims find intimacy and birthed from her frustrations about the lack of good, interesting/complex/ real characters for women. As Maya Angelou inspired her to write her scripts isolated in a hotel for a long weekend, she shares her writing ethic and her confidence to take ownership of her creativity and our shared responsibility to change the world. This is a MUST listen for all creative types!. These are the fearless, moving, authentic, compelling, owning your own space stories that have all led Marianna Palka right here. Marianna Palka is Glasgow born and Los Angeles based filmmaker, actress and writer. She studied at the acclaimed New York Atlantic Theater Company before beginning her career in theater, film and television. Palka wrote, directed and starred in “Good Dick,” a 2008 Sundance Film Festival’s Grand Jury Prize nominee, joining Jason Ritter, Martin Starr, Mark Webber and Tom Arnold in an exploration of intimacy and connection after sexual trauma. Palka’s critically acclaimed feature film “Bitch” premiered at Sundance last year and tells the story of a woman who transforms under the enormous pressure of motherhood, leaving her absent husband, Jason Ritter, to discover what it means to be a parent.

The composer Benjamin Britten is closely associated with the Suffolk coast at Aldeburgh where he lived and worked for most of his life. This episode of Open Country explores how this landscape and the sea inspired some of Britten's most famous work. Lucy Walker from the Britten-Pears Foundation describes how Britten became rooted in Suffolk and how important it was for him to write music specifically for the people and places in Aldeburgh. Two of Britten's well-known operas Billy Budd and Peter Grimes are about people who made their living from the sea - we hear from fishermen in Aldeburgh about how the industry has changed since Britten's day. Britten often walked along Aldeburgh beach to think and compose in his head. An open stretch of this shingle ridge just north of the town is now home to the Scallop, Maggi Hambling's 15-foot stainless steel sculpture dedicated to Britten. Maggi tells the story of how Scallop was inspired by Britten and his achievements, and the row that erupted in the local community after it was installed. Producer: Sophie Anton

The Lion’s Mouth Opens, Lucy Walker’s critically acclaimed short documentary, begins at a dinner between the actress and filmmaker Marianna Palka and her friends the night before she gets results from a genetic test that will tell her whether she carries the gene for Huntington’s disease. Palka’s father has had a long battle with the neurodegenerative disorder and she has a 50 percent chance of having the gene that causes it. As the film readies to debut on HBO June 1 at 8 p.m., we spoke to Palka about her decision to document her experience, why she chose to be tested, and whether it is better to know or not know. Because of the nature of the film, we have agreed not to discuss her test results in consideration of listeners who may not yet have seen the film.
