Director: Meghan Horvath

Year: 2011

A Dollar and A Dream follows British political activist Malcolm Clark on the campaign trail in the American state of Ohio for the 2008 Democratic ticket. Malcolm's journey raises questions about campaigning, global democracy, the promise of social change, and the power of the individual. What inspired Malcolm to become directly involved in another country's electoral process, especially one in which he couldn't cast a vote? Was it something more than the allure of Barack Obama?

Spacewoman Spacewoman

Director: Hannah Berryman

Year: 2024

A landmark feature documentary about astronaut Eileen Collins, the first woman to pilot and command the Space Shuttle.<br /> Eileen’s incredible journey starts with her smalltown beginnings, sees her smash through many glass ceilings, and culminates in four dramatic space shuttle missions, the last being possibly the most dangerous and most important of them all.<br /> At its heart the film is the moving human drama of one family, where a mother’s extraordinary career takes us straight to the big philosophical question of what is the level of acceptable risk in human endeavour? <br /> This film celebrates Commander Collins’ trailblazing NASA career which opened the way for women to become spacecraft pilots and commanders, and proved a perfect riposte to a previous generation of male astronauts who thought there was no place for women to lead the way in space. <br /> Official Selection DOC NYC 2024 - World premiere<br /> Official Selection CPH:DOX 2025 - European premiere
