Featured/Feature Documentaries
This film chronicles the spectacular journey of 9 'peace climbers' from different faiths and cultures as they climb to the summit of Mt. Everest. Palestinian Ali Bushnaq and Israeli's Dudu Yifrah and Micha Yaniv have set aside their differences to forge a path of teamwork and cooperation in order to climb the world’s highest peak. This, however, is easier said than done. Having been embroiled in a brutal war for years, each believes they are on the right side of that war and each knows that on Everest the cooperation of your teammate is a matter of life and death.
Featured/Feature Documentaries
In January, 2003, Kathryn Blume and Sharron Bower organized readings of the ancient Greek play, Lysistrata, to protest the imminent preemptive war on Iraq. Word of the Lysistrata Project exploded across the Internet and six weeks later, on March 3, 2003, over 1,000 simultaneous productions were performed in 59 countries around the globe. This 2,400 year-old play uncannily mirrors strong women who dare to speak out against the hypocrisy of war while facing ridicule and accusations of treason from the powers of male-dominated government. As the famous and ordinary alike joined together in a worldwide chorus of dissent, this inspiring film demonstrates the power of theatre as a tool for change. NOTE: This film contains adult content.
