Doglegs
Sound Recordist
Doglegs is a cheerfully iconoclastic underground scene where the disabled battle the able-bodied - all in the name of exploding stereotypes. When the disabled champ seeks life and love beyond the ring, his idol, the able-bodied organizer, tries to sabotage his bid for independence. In a battle of the human spirit, can the power of disability win our hero his dreamgirl?
Women of Fukushima
Director
Over a year since three nuclear reactors went into full meltdown at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, a broad anti-nuclear movement is growing in Japan. Nowhere is that more apparent that in Fukushima Prefecture, where a group of local women protest the deafening silence of the Japanese government. Ignored by their own media, these women share their brutally honest views on the state of the clean up, cover-ups, untruths and the stagnant political climate in modern Japan.
Scenes from a Rooftop
Director
The film gives a bird's-eye view of the daily activity in Bergen, a town on the west coast of Norway. The city comes to life in miniature.
