When I think of curators of film festivals, I often think of them the same way I used to think of casting directors: as the gatekeepers to our success. But during my conversation with Angie Reza Tures from the Femme Frontera Showcase and Mary Dossinger from the RiverRun International Film Festival it became very apparent that the curators, just like casting directors, are rooting for us and our films. When I asked Angie and Mary what they were (or weren't) looking for, the question caused them to hesitate. Both said they didn't want to limit what might be submitted. What is really exciting for both of them is when filmmakers take a “paint by numbers” storyline and then play with the form. As Angie says, “We like to see our filmmakers take risks and push themselves, but the story has to be the strongest component.” Mary adds that she is always looking for, “films that blow your mind and make you question the artform in general.” And they both recognize how difficult this is to do, and do well. But the take away for me was that it gives us permission to play. That again, we need to create without thinking, “what do they want?” and create with the mindset, “what story do I want to tell?”  Mary Dossinger is the Director for the RiverRun International Film Festival in Winston-Salem, NC and just took part in her 16th Festival in 2023. As Program Director, Mary oversees all aspects of the film program, festival schedule and all filmmaker correspondence. Prior to joining the team at RiverRun, Mary received her Masters in Fine Arts in Contemporary Cinema Cultures from The University of London – King's College London in 2007.  She also earned her Bachelor of Arts with a major in English and minor in film studies at Emory University in 2000.  She has had a varied career, starting as a Program Assistant at CNN and Turner Broadcasting and then moving on to Capitol Hill where she worked as an Executive Assistant at an international lobbying firm, the American Council of Life Insurers.  She has moved all over the world, thanks to a father who worked for Exxon.  She was born in Guildford, England and lived in Athens, Greece; Houston, TX; Anchorage, AK; Atlanta, GA and Washington, DC.   Angie Reza Tures has worked in independent film since 2003 after graduating from the University of San Francisco with a B.A. in Media Studies and a minor in Music. For twelve years, she worked as a producer, director, and editor in the Bay Area mentoring under Oscar-nominated and Sundance award-winning documentary filmmakers. Since 2011, Angie has lived and worked in El Paso, Texas. She founded the Femme Frontera Filmmaker Showcase in 2016 and serves as Executive Director of Femme Frontera. In 2021, Angie will complete her first feature narrative script. She is a 2022 Rockwood Documentary Leaders Fellow, a fellowship supported by the Ford Foundation. Find out more about the Femme Frontera Showcase:  https://www.femmefrontera.orgIG: @femme_fronteraFind out more about the RiverRun International Film Festival:https://riverrunfilm.com/https://www.facebook.com/riverrunfilm/IG: @riverfunfilm If you want to chat or ask questions about the episode go to FB: https://www.facebook.com/tarmeydanielle/ and visit the group site. Follow me on IG @tarmeydanielle

Besa Luci in conversation with Vladimir Djurdjević and Granit Gashi.In this episode, we'll be talking about climate change. How vulnerable is our region to the warming of the planet? Are we taking enough measures to address and adapt to climate change?Climate change has been making headlines for years and we have all felt the effects one way or another. As the planet continues to warm, we now have warmer Januaries, snowless winters and drier summers.In summer 2022, heatwaves and droughts left some of Europe's main rivers dry or at their lowest levels in the past 500 years. In other parts of the continent and the world at large, floods have devastated populations. Temperatures have been hitting record highs every year and the first few days of 2023 marked some of the hottest days in January on record for some countries in Europe.Our region is prone to a range of extreme weather events, including heatwaves, droughts, floods, and storms, which are expected to become more frequent and intense as the planet continues to warm. These events can have a significant impact on the region's economy, infrastructure and natural systems. Though climate change is the most pressing global challenge for our generation — in our region, by and large, climate change doesn't seem to be a priority for national governments, for the public, or for local media. Two guests join us this episode to explore how the climate is changing and how regional countries are responding to it.Vladimir Djurdjević is a professor at the Faculty of Physics, University of Belgrade, and an expert in climate modelling and climate data analysis.Granit Gashi is the director of the Into the Park Festival, through which he tries to connect his generation to environmental protection through music. Granit is a contact point for Kosovo and Program Assistant at the Heinrich Böll Foundation. Other Talking Points is produced by Besa Luci, Aulonë Kadriu and Gentiana Paçarizi.Music and sound mix by PUG musik.This episode was produced with the financial support of the National Endowment for Democracy.

Questions for the Week: There was a recent Buzzfeed article describing Millennials as the "burnout generation". As millennials yourselves, what do you think? Did anything in this article resonate with you? If so, how has your church and faith community helped you manage burnout? What do you think it means to be a "man of faith" in today's world? Special Guest:Rebecca Barnes, Coordinator, Presbyterian Hunger ProgramGuest Question:Is becoming a vegan the best way for someone to reduce their carbon footprint and not contribute to climate change and environmental degradation?

Sarah has worked with FIRE as a Program Assistant through Drexel's cooperative education program since 2012. She has defended students and faculty facing censorship in FIRE's Individual Rights Defense Program, where she worked for five years. She is now Director of FIRE's Targeted Advocacy program, where she focuses on U.S. universities' relationship with international threats to free speech and art censorship. She has written for publications such as - Foreign Policy, Artsy, The Huffington Post, and New York Daily News. Sarah and I discussed: Free Speech on U.S. Campuses What are Confucius institutes? How FIRE helps Censorship by social media corporations Blasphemy laws and suppression of free expression What satellite campuses are Foreign government financing of US educational systems And much, much more... Sarah McLaughlin Twitter My Take: Everyone agrees with free speech when it's something they agree with, the problem is defending free speech when you have someone with an opposing opinion or set of ideological differences that are contrary to yours. If you want free speech to be upheld, we must agree on an uncomfortable truth which is - free speech should be accessible to all regardless of social standing, politics, religion, or anything else. If we allow open conversation we can hopefully weed out the bad ideas, and allow the good ones to surface. Support the Podcast
