Director
O documentário segue a jornada do ex-secretário do governo americano e professor Robert Reich, enquanto ele compartilha, no coração da América conservadora, suas ideias sobre os novos rumos que a economia do país deveria tomar.
Director
Love & Taxes is a riveting comic tale of seven years of tax avoidance. Following the possibly real-life exploits of Josh Kornbluth, an autobiographical monologist, Love & Taxes is a comedy that blends solo performance and scripted scenes to bring the subjective reality of the storyteller hilariously to life. A tale of procrastination, making movies and growing up, Love & Taxes is a middle-aged coming-of-age story that is also, quite possibly, the first ever pro-tax romantic comedy.
Director
U.S. Labor Secretary Robert Reich tries to raise awareness of the country's widening economic gap.

O Melhor Ladrão do Mundo, às vezes triste, às vezes engraçado, mas profundamente humano. A vida de Izzy não está nada fácil. Seu pai sofreu um derrame, e está paralisado numa cadeira de rodas. Sua mãe luta para sustentar a família, cuidar do pai e dos três filhos pequenos. Seus amigos do subúrbio de Nova York não são tão amistosos assim. Com seus poucos 11 anos, Izzy encontra refúgio invadindo casas quando os moradores estão ausentes. Nelas, ele descansa, faz um lanche, muda uma mobília de lugar, mas raramente furta algo de valor. Mas ele acaba tendo que cometer um ato de violência para que as coisas mudem. De preferência, para melhor. Embalado por uma trilha sonora original de ótimos hip hops de Prince Paul and Don Newkirk.
