Self
Filmmaker Paul Saltzman retraces his journey of 50 years ago when he spent a life-changing time with the Beatles at the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's ashram on the banks of the Ganges River. In 1968, he discovered his own soul, learned meditation, which changed his life, and hung out with John, Paul, George and Ringo. Fifty years later, he finds "Bungalow Bill" in Hawaii; connects with David Lynch about his own inner journey; as well as preeminent Beatles historian, Mark Lewisohn; Academy Award nominated film composer, Laurence Rosenthal; and Pattie and Jenny Boyd. And much of this is due to Saltzman's own daughter, Devyani, reminding him that he had put away and forgotten these remarkably intimate photographs of that time in 1968.

En 1997 el actor ganador del Oscar, Morgan Freeman, quien vive en la comunidad de Charleston (Mississippi), se ofreció a financiar el primer Senior Prom en la historia de una escuela secundaria de Charleston. Su oferta fue ignorada. En 2008, Morgan se ofreció de nuevo y la East Tallahatchie County School Board ha aceptado. En este pueblo de 2.300 personas, su escuela secundaria de 415 alumnos blancos y negros tiene, a día de hoy, bailes separados: uno para negros y otro para blancos. Esta película sigue a la clase del colegio de Charleston de 2008 y la preparación para asistir a su histórica fiesta de graduación, en un contexto de fuertes emociones, tradiciones, y los conflictos inherentes a las relaciones raciales de la comunidad. Algunos de los padres blancos mantuvieron su baile de graduación solo para blancos.
