Greetings, fellow docuphiles!
We've added several wonderful titles to the DocWorkers e-store, and I want to
keep you in the loop on what's new. Also, look in May for a great new feature -
interviews from some of the most intrepid documentarians working today!
Pedro Carvajal's POPaganda: The Art and Crimes of Ron English
is a romp through the mind of a brilliant maverick -- the anti-corporate
painter, Ron English. The film spans more than a decade of Ron's New York
City billboard hijackings, TV appearances, and best of all, his incredible
artwork. A truly inspiring example of full self-expression through art and life.
The Shape of The Future takes a look at the Israeli-Palestinian
issues through the eyes of the people affected by the violence. It is the only
film on the subject to have played simultaneously in Israel, the territories,
and neighboring Arab nations.
Drowned Out is the second DVD in the DocWorkers store from
filmmaker Franny Armstrong (the first is the marvelous McLibel). Drowned Out
tells the amazing story of Jalsindhi, a village in India that sits in the path
of the rising water from the recently completed Narmada Dam. They have seen
downstream villagers forced out of their homes and into feeble urban existences
on a few bucks from the government, and they refuse to share that fate. They
choose to stay, and drown. What follows is an inspiring story of how necessity
breeds activism, even in the unlikeliest places.
