Waiting...
This historical MicroDoc gives a glimpse into the difficulties faced by Palestinian children and their parents in the H2 section of the West Bank city of Hebron during extended periods of curfew in 2003, when contrary to UN regulations, children were regularly prevented from going to school by Israeli soldiers. In the ongoing Israeli/Palestinian conflict, it is easy to lose sight of the ways that the everyday lives of ordinary people can be disrupted. Shot largely on hidden camera to avoid confiscation by the soldiers, this film provides a window to just one aspect of children’s and parents’ lives under military occupation.

200 Block
Made in the immediate aftermath of a recent tragedy in southwestern Montana, 200 Block is a documentary meditation on history-in-progress in a small western city. Many small towns in the U.S. are experiencing a collapse of their downtown areas. However, on March 5, 2009, this figurative collapse took on a visceral reality for Bozeman, MT, when a morning explosion destroyed several buildings in its historic downtown. This film, made in five days as part of the 2009 International Documentary Challenge, explores the emotional climate of Bozeman in the days following this disaster.

The Transition (James Allen Smith)
The advent of computerized trading is forcing floor traders to make a sobering choice: adapt or get out. In 'The Transition', we meet Rob Proniewski, a trader faced with such a decision. It's a way of life, of ego and excess that can't be found anywhere else - but it's disappearing like so many parts of our increasingly digitized world. What path will he choose and what are the obstacles that stand in his way?

Bayou Landfall
A Movie by Leslye Abbey L.I. International Humanitarian Film & Video Expo -2006 Award On August 29, 2005, Hurricane Katrina swept ashore on the Louisiana coast. Among those communities devastated by her impact were the smaller Houma Indian settlements in lower Plauemines, lower St. Bernard, and lower jefferson parishes. The population of these Indian settlements, some 3500 tribal citizens, was hit hard by the storm. Over one thousand of that number were left homeless, their homes completely destroyed by wind and water. As the tribe struggled to bring aid to its citizens and channel its few resources to their benefit, Hurricane Rita entered the Gulf of Mexico and tracked westward towards Louisiana. At risk was the core of the Houma Indian population that resides in the lower bayou regions of Laforche and Terrabone parishes. While they were spared the direct impact with which Katrina had assaulted the eastern communities, the "near miss" by Rita pushed a massive storm surge into the bayous. Their more populous settlements in lower Terrabone were submerged. The Houma communities of Dulac, Gran Caillou, Montegut, Pointe-aux-Chene, and Isle de Jean Charles were inundated with seven to eight feet of water. An additional 4000 tribe member's homes were lost. The Houma are a state-recognized tribe that have bee fighting for Federal recognition for decades.

The R.O.M.E.O.S Ep.2 (Katy Chevigny)
ROMEO is an acronym for 'Retired Old Men Eating Out' and features an informal club of retired lawyers, writers and intellectuals who meet every week at a classic New York diner. It is a long lunch to talk about anything and everything; telling old jokes, making fun of each other, complaining about politics. This is what the conversation would be like if the guys from 'Diner' hung out 50 years after the movie.
