A Decent Home
Executive Producer
Mobile homes have long been an affordable option for people who struggle with the cost of other housing in the United States. But now the economy of mobile home parks is under threat as private equity firms are buying up properties and looking to squeeze more money out of mobile home owners. Filmmaker Sara Terry uses this backdrop to explore urgent class issues that resonate across America, and especially in the high-priced rental market of New York City.

По лезвию ножа
Screenplay
Фильм рассказывает истории нескольких пациентов, которые испробовали на себе медицинские устройства как бы с переднего края технологий: механический контрацептив, протез тазобедренного сустава, робота-хирурга. Но обещанной врачами и рекламой магии не случилось: наоборот, здоровье людей было разрушено, для некоторых - навсегда.

Вы когда-нибудь задумывались о том, как в действительности устроена система официальных оценок фильмов, выходящих в прокат? О том, что происходит за закрытыми дверьми Киноассоциации? MPAA - это орган самоуправления в киноиндустрии, отвечающий за рейтинги. Так при получении рейтинга NC-17 киноленту можно будет увидеть лишь в некоторых кинотеатрах, и, следовательно, кинопроизводитель потеряет кучу денег. Режиссер этого документального фильма, Кирби Дик, в своей ленте раскрывает некоторые секреты процесса выставления этих самых рейтингов MPAA, общается со многими режиссерами-жертвами рейтинга NC-17 и с помощью частного детектива показывает лица людей, расставляющих рейтинги, которых руководство MPAA доселе пыталось оградить от внешнего мира.

I Am Not a Freak
Writer
This film is a fascinating look at some people afflicted with congenital deformities of an extreme nature. Their ability to live with their aberrations while remaining socially involved and upbeat is truly inspirational. While their predecessors were often seen in so called "freak shows" that were part of various exhibitions from Coney Island to traveling circuses, these performers were actually the more fortunate ones in an era of little tolerance for those who were different from the accepted norm. Many became famous and extremely wealthy, such as Tom Thumb (Charles Sherwood Stratton), who worked for many years with P.T. Barnum.
