SOCIAL ISSUES
CONCRETE, STEEL AND PAINT
"Highly suggested for viewing in academic settings" American Library Association, March 2012
"I use it in my courses in corrections, reentry and restorative justice to stimulate and reinforce
discussions of alternatives to traditional ways of thinking about justice issues. It is a terrific
film." Michael J. Gilbert, Ph. D. Associate Professor of Criminal Justice University of Texas
When men in a Pennsylvania state prison join with victims of crime to create a mural about
healing, their views on punishment, remorse, and forgiveness collide. Finding consensus is not
easy - but as the participants move through the creative process, mistrust gives way to surprising
moments of human contact and common purpose. This complex story raises important questions
about crime, justice and reconciliation - and dramatically illustrates how art can facilitate dialogue
about difficult issues. #16025/ 55 minutes 2011 $329.95 *CC *SA

SEEDS OF TIME "A Vital, clear-headed look at the vital effects of climate change on global food security."
The clock is ticking on one of the greatest potential disasters in the history of our species and one man leads a worldwide crusade to avert it. Crop
diversity pioneer Cary Fowler travels the world, educating the public about the dire consequences of our inaction. The world's agriculture - and it's
fate - are dependent on the ability of plants to adapt to changes in climate, pests and disease - but today's crops around the globe are grown from
human-engineered seeds and have lost nearly all their diversity and ability to naturally adapt. Could one massive infestation of fungus, blight or
insects cause all the world's corn, wheat or lettuce to die? Is modern agriculture setting the stage for economic disaster, food riots, and global
starvation? Dr. Fowler is the head of an international consortium to store seeds from every agricultural plant in the world. But is his farsighted
program enough to save humanity from annihilation? #16091/1065 77 minutes 2014 $179.95 *CC *SA
*Brand New! BIKES VS CARS
Deep down, we all know we need to talk about it: Climate, earth's resources, cities where the entire surface is consumed by the car. An evergrowing, dirty, noisy chaos created by gas-consuming machines. Cars would seem to provide the lure of freedom, but in many places, traffic is so
bad that drivers spend hours every day just going short distances. The bike is a great tool for change, but powerful interests who gain from the
private car invest billions each year to lobby and advertise to protect against the encroachment of bicycles. Meet activists and thinkers who are
fighting for better cities, who refuse to stop riding despite the increasing number killed in traffic. #16099/1065 90 minutes 2015 $179.95 *CC *SA

about the perils faced every year by these amazing world travelers. This is a must-see movie for anybody who
values the natural world or wonders about its relationship to humans." John Fitzpatrick, Executive Director,
Cornell Lab of Ornithology
For thousands of years, songbirds were regarded by mankind as messengers from the gods. Today, these creatures woven inextricably into the fabric of our environment - are vanishing at an alarming rate. Under threat from climate
change, pesticides and more, populations of hundreds of species have dipped dramatically. As scientists, activists and
bird enthusiasts investigate this phenomenon, amazing secrets of the bird world come to light for the first time in this

SOCIAL MORES & TEACHING
SEX(ED): The Movie
When we learn about sex, we don't just learn about social mores and biology; what we learn affects our identity, our
relationships and our ability to be intimate throughout our lives. Many people look back at how they learned about
sex, whether it was a book, an embarrassing parental chat, a school presentation, or porn, and remember their shock
and embarrassment. SEX(ED) captures the humor and vulnerability of those experiences while allowing us to look at
the various agendas that shaped the content. To get at the truth behind the history and current state of sex
education, SEX(ED) examines sex education films from the 1910s up to the present day. Often hilarious, sometimes
instructive, and almost always awkward and embarrassing, these films reflect the changing moral, cultural and
political attitudes that inspired them. #15930/0645 77 minutes 2013 $189.95 (Colleges & Universities $379.95) *CC *SA

discover that communicating isn’t just about sharing information—it’s creating it—and that the ways in which emails, texts or voice messages are

*Brand New! RAISING CHILDREN IN A DIGITAL WORLD with Dr. Gordon Neufeld *Canadian!
The digital revolution has happened so quickly that it has caught most of us off guard. Yet the digital world is here to stay, changing our society in
ways that have far-reaching consequences for our children. What are the implications for parenting? How do we harness the spectacular
connecting potential and yet avoid the pitfalls of attachment technology gone awry? How do we prepare them to live in this new world and yet
preserve what is required for healthy development to take place? We have followed our children into the digital world and yet for their sakes as
well as ours, need to restore our lead in order to avoid the insidious dangers that live in the shadows of this potent technology. Dr. Neufeld looks
at the digital revolution as a developmentalist committed to helping parents help their children become all they were meant to be. He not only
explains the drive underlying today's digital technology but also points to a way through. A 2.5-hour

we show viewers how parents can harness the unique power of their position to get the results they seek. We
offer concrete examples of adults meeting their own needs and encouraging children to do the same, in ways
that are simple, socially acceptable, effective, and positive. We explain that real change happens with practice
over time, not in an instant or in a particular moment. And we demonstrate that learning to handle conflict,
disappointment, or anger is not like learning how to spell a single word - it’s more like learning to speak an
entire language. #16000/1120 17 minutes 2015 $129.95 *CC *SA

people to reclaim their teachings. Few people survived who speak the language he was trained in to
transmit his culture. Adam Dick or Kwaxsistala is the Clan Chief of the origin story of his nation and the

the lies, the pain of childhood lost and finally resolution. Their reunion insulated in the stark lobby of the train station, proves to be the door that
opens a path to healing. MOOSE RIVER CROSSING is a reunion not simply of old friends but a resolution, a crossing over and a letting go.

MEDIA STUDIES
*Brand New! EMPATHY GAP (THE): Masculinity and the Courage to Change
In THE BRO CODE and GENERATION M, filmmaker Thomas Keith examined how American culture bombards young men with sexist and
misogynistic messages. In THE EMPATHY GAP, he looks more closely at the ways these messages short-circuit men's ability to empathize with
women, respect them as equals, and take feminism seriously. Keith begins by exploring some of the key messages about manhood that boys
absorb from the culture -- that they should acquire material wealth, meet conflict with aggression, harden themselves, suppress all human
emotion except anger, and view women primarily as sexual objects -- then argues that these messages not only devalue women but also undercut
men's innate capacity for caring and empathy. Along the way, he draws fascinating parallels between sexism and racism, spelling out how each is
rooted in cultural norms that discourage empathy, and shows how men who break with these norms live happier and healthier lives.

*Brand New! GUYLAND: Where Boys Become Men
"Guyland is a powerful exploration of what it means to be a young man today." Michael Kaufman, Co-Founder of the
White Ribbon Campaign In this powerful new film based on his bestselling book, acclaimed sociologist Michael
Kimmel maps the troubling social world where boys become men - a new stage of development he calls "Guyland."
Arguing that the traditional adult signposts and cultural signals that once helped boys navigate their way to
manhood are no longer clear, Kimmel takes us inside a new social order where more and more young men try
desperately to prove their masculinity to one other - often with dangerous consequences for young women and guys
themselves. Guyland offers a way for all of us - parents and community members, young men and women,
professors and administrators - to envision new ways to support boys and young men as they navigate cultural
environments that glorify unhealthy, violent, and sexist models of manhood.
*Guyland is essential viewing for courses in gender studies, sociology, media studies, communications, counseling,
and psychology.

*Brand New! TV FAMILY: Behind the Scenes of the First Reality Television Program
How REAL is REALITY TV and what are they selling?! In 1960, NBC aired what is widely considered to be the first "reality television" show in
American broadcast history called Story of a Family. Media scholars and television historians have long recognized its significance as a precursor
to the unscripted(?) television programming that dominates American television today. Tells the story of how the show's producers carefully
choreographed the way they wanted the family to appear to the American public -- all in the name of authenticity. The result is an eye-opening
look at one of the television industry's earliest attempts to shape the "reality" of family life in commercially viable ways. Ideal for courses that look
at media culture, commercial television, communication, documentary, and television history.

*Brand New! THE ILLUSIONISTS: A Film about the Globalization of Beauty

see themselves. Taking us from Harvard University to the halls of the Louvre Museum, from a cosmetic
surgeon's office in Beirut to the heart of Tokyo's Electric Town, the film explores how these industries

In this illustrated presentation, media scholar Justin Lewis makes a compelling case that consumer

direction will require changing our media system and our cultural environment. Showing how consumer
capitalism has become economically and environmentally unsustainable, Lewis explores how our cultural and information industries make it
difficult to envision other forms of human progress by limiting critical thinking and keeping us locked in a cycle of consumption. He argues that
change will only be possible if we take culture seriously and transform the very way we organize our media and communications systems.

*Brand New! DYSFUNCTIONAL SOCIETIES: Why Inequality Matters
What distinguishing feature do the world's healthiest and happiest societies have in common? According to
acclaimed author Richard Wilkinson, the answer is simple: they have far less income inequality than other
societies. In this new film Wilkinson focuses on why the U.S., despite being one of the richest nations in the
world, lags behind so many other rich Western societies in a number of crucial statistical measures - including life
expectancy, violence, health, community, teen pregnancy, mental illness, and incarceration. The reason, he
suggests, is that the immense wealth of the U.S. has been unevenly distributed among the American people.
Mobilizing years of research, Wilkinson looks at the devastating toll economic inequality is taking on people
around the world, and shows that societies with the smallest gaps between rich and poor enjoy the highest levels
of health and happiness across all social and economic classes. The result is a timely and accessible reassessment
of some of our most cherished socio-economic principles and myths.

*Brand New! THE OCCUPATION OF THE AMERICAN MIND: Israel's Public Relations War in the United States
Over the past few years, Israel's ongoing military occupation of Palestinian territory and repeated invasions of the Gaza strip have triggered a
fierce backlash against Israeli policies virtually everywhere in the world - except the United States. This film takes an eye-opening look at this
critical exception, zeroing in on pro-Israel public relations efforts within the U.S. Narrated by Roger Waters
and featuring leading observers of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and U.S. media culture, the film explores
how the Israeli government, the U.S. government, and the pro-Israel lobby have joined forces, often with very
different motives, to shape American media coverage of the conflict in Israel's favor.

medically assisted dying in some cases. Two patients in this film examine the options available to them,
confronting their own mortality in the process. #16017/0545 46 minutes 2014 $189.95 *CC *SA

film, intimate confessions show the moral icon of the 20th century in a
different light. The woman who achieved worldwide recognition for her life
among the beggars and dying in the slums of Calcutta often felt lonely and
empty inside. Learn about her life story, unsettling and provocative in equal
measure. #16149/0635 51 minutes 2015 $199.95

and satisfying career. Viewers will learn about core values of nursing, the importance of providing non-biased care, how to go about the job with integrity and
honesty, the proper guidelines for attitude and appearance, and best practices for communication and teamwork in a multidisciplinary team setting.
