Synopsis

What does it take for us to act on the climate crisis – especially if we’re the kind of person who should already be acting? In this funny, relatable portrait, a concerned yet ineffectual dad finds the first step is letting those unbearable feelings of climate anxiety in, instead of pushing them aside. But as he meets others like him, he discovers how oil-backed propagandists funded our denial and paralysis. He sets out to unmask the vested interests responsible, helping raise a generation’s leading authors in a vibrant chorus.
MY EXTINCTION is a revealingly honest account of how to feel your feelings, act on your privilege, and get active when threatened with extinction.

Synopsis

A real war story is not the story of men at war. A haunting encounter with a boy injured by a random bullet sends director Carol Dysinger to investigate what happened to him, who fired the shot, who is responsible? During her fifteen years following the war in Afghanistan, she often finds herself behind the curtains of an Afghan home where Bibi Hajji maintains her extended family – struggling with her grief and her remaining sons' anger and pain at the loss of their brother. ONE BULLET evolves from a procedural to an excavation of human loss and the redemption of female friendship. How do we deal with guilt and injury across vast social, cultural and religious divides? Ask two tough old broads drinking tea.
