I AM es una película de no ficción absolutamente entretenida y entretenida que plantea dos preguntas prácticas y provocativas: ¿qué le pasa a nuestro mundo y qué podemos hacer para mejorarlo? El realizador de la investigación es Tom Shadyac, uno de los profesionales de la comedia más importantes de Hollywood y la fuerza creativa detrás de éxitos como "Ace Ventura", "Mentiroso mentiroso", "El profesor chiflado" y "Bruce Todopoderoso". Sin embargo, en YO SOY Shadyac se para frente a la cámara para contar lo que le sucedió después de que un accidente en bicicleta lo dejó incapacitado, posiblemente para siempre. Aunque finalmente se recuperó, emergió con un nuevo sentido de propósito, decidido a compartir su propio despertar a su vida anterior de exceso y codicia, e investigar cómo él, como individuo, y nosotros como raza, podríamos mejorar la forma en que vivimos. y caminar en el mundo

On the eve of the long-awaited Khmer Rouge trial, an American survivor of the genocide returns to Cambodia hoping to unlock the mystery of her father's disappearance in 1975. Thida Buth Mam's quest intersects with many silent voices: widows, survivors from remote villages, monks and even former perpetrators. Her search for the truth stirs up the fractured pieces of one family's nightmare, unearths an unimaginable heartbreak and ultimately shines light on a people's broken silence.

When Linda, an outspoken lesbian psychotherapist, decided that George, a bulldozer-driving transsexual, was the woman for her, Two Brides and a Scalpel: Diary of a Lesbian Marriage was born. Directed and produced by Vancouver-based Mark Achbar, the video was shot over a two-year period by the subjects and covers what the media touted as the first lesbian marriage in Canadian history, a graphic sex change operation, and the daily lives and most intimate moments of a relationship generally hidden behind the iron curtain of societal taboo.

A Cow at My Table explores Western attitudes towards farm animals and meat, and the intense battle between animal advocates and the meat industry to influence the consumer's mind. Five years in production took Director Jennifer Abbott across Canada, the US, Australia and New Zealand to meet with the leaders of the animal rights movement, animal welfare advocates as well as spokespeople from livestock industries. A Cow at My Table inter-cuts these diverse perspectives with archival films, images from modern-day agribusiness and footage of farm animals shot from uncharacteristic vantage points.

The myths of the priapic Black stud and the White woman beauty ideal collide in this rhythmically constructed work about identity and desire. Skinned explores the specific historic, psychological and social implications of relationships between Black men and White women. Using their bodies as a point of juncture, the artists blatantly situate the viewer as voyeur while identifying this physical realm as the arena within which cultural communities and individuals oppose interracial relationships. Ultimately, the multiplicity of images and voices calls into question the validity of definitive truths and the authoritative voice.
