Directors Mark Johnson and Jonathan Walls inspiring tribute to the unifying power of music. With a spirit of peace and openness the two roamed across four continents for a year, recording various musicians at work in order to combine their distant voices into one global song. Johnson and Walls use split-screen editing, Super 8 footage, and moving performances of traditional music -- from the freedom fighters of South Africa playing the songs that helped topple apartheid to the Zuni of New Mexico performing ancient songs of religious devotion. Along the way, the musicians interviewed continually convey the idea that music is a tool to promote peace. This paean to humanity will have music lovers dancing in their seats.

The extraordinary story of a small band of Liberian women, Christian and Muslims united, who formed a thin but unshakable white line between the opposing forces, and successfully demanded an end to the fighting, armed only with white T-shirts and the courage of their convictions. Together they took on the violent warlords and corrupt Charles Taylor regime, and won a long-awaited peace for their shattered country in 2003. This film intersperses contemporary interviews, archival images, and scenes of present-day Liberia to recount the experiences and memories of the women who were instrumental in bringing lasting peace to their country.

This is the story of the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Darfur, Sudan, through the perspectives of twelve Amtrak passengers during a three-day, cross-country train trip. Filmmaker Brecke's photographic images of desolation, death, and human suffering in the burned out villages of Darfur and refugee camps of Chad, along with moving accounts of his experiences, illuminate the full dimensions of the crisis and raise serious questions about the world's willful indifference to it. For the twelve passengers, and thus the film's audience, this cross-country train trip becomes an enlightening and emotional journey through an indifferent American media landscape into the heart of the Darfur tragedy.

Vanaja, the 15 year-old daughter of a financially troubled fisherman, goes to work in the local landlady's house in hopes of learning Kuchipudi dance.

Set in rural South India, a place where social barriers are built stronger than ancient fort walls, the film explores the chasm that divides classes as a young girl struggles to come of age.
