[Videolib] preview for One Day After Peace

2013-02-11 Thread nahum laufer
I need the collective advice of Video-Lib users
The Film One Day After Peace was first screened at Hot-Docs Toronto 
Doc-Aviv -Tel-Aviv in April 2012, since it has been screened in over 30 film
festivals also in over 100 screenings including United Nations Headquarters
-New-York  Carnegie Institute for Peace -Washington-DC.
http://onedayafterpeace.com/index.php

As The Issue of Peace is important, Last month we decided to start
distributing to libraries while the film is still on it's festival circuit.
Already 15 Universities have purchased one day..'
To get libraries to purchase the film we offer the possibility to get an
online preview by Vimeo, I offer it only to professors or librarians that
ask for a preview.
I use the following wording:
Thanks for your interest 
Here is the password
Htpp://vimeo.com/XX
Password: XX
This is a preview for personal use only.
Nahum

I want advice on:
1)  Is it clear that the recipient can use it only as a preview and for
example not enter a class and screen the film?
2)  Do any other distributers offer the same possibility?
Thanks

Hi Matthew,

 

Women Make Movies has two films that may be of interest:

 

Troubled Harvest

 

This award-winning documentary examines the lives of women migrant
workers from Mexico and Central America as they work in grape,
strawberry and cherry harvests in California and the Pacific Northwest.
Interviews with women farm workers reveal the dangerous health effects
of pesticides on themselves and their children, the problems they
encounter as working mothers of young children, and the destructive
consequences of U.S. immigration policies on the unity of their
families. Featuring an interview with Dolores Huerta, co-founder of the
United Farm Workers Union.

http://www.wmm.com/filmcatalog/pages/c72.shtml 

 

Performing the Border

 

A video essay set in the Mexican-U.S. border town of Ciudad Juarez,
where U.S. multinational corporations assemble electronic and digital
equipment just across from El Paso, Texas. This imaginative,
experimental work investigates the growing feminization of the global
economy and its impact on Mexican women living and working in the area.
Looking at the border as both a discursive and material space, the video
explores the sexualization of the border region through labor division,
prostitution, the expression of female desires in the entertainment
industry, and sexual violence in the public sphere. Candid interviews
with Mexican women factory and sex workers, as well as activists and
journalists, are combined with scripted voiceover analysis, screen text,
scenes and sounds recorded on site, and found footage to give new
insights into the gendered conditions inscribed by the high-tech
industry at its low-wage end. 

http://www.wmm.com/filmcatalog/pages/c474.shtml 

 

Let me know if you have any questions.

 

Best,

 

Amy Aquilino

Subject: [Videolib] films on undocumented workers

 

I have been asked to come up with a list of films on the lives of
undocumented workers.  The films need to focus on workers and their
labor issues, as opposed to films on other parts of the undocumented
experience (i.e. wonderful films like Inocente).  

I have several in our collection and don't need to know about those:

Maid in America
No Sweat
El Contrato
Los Trabajadores / The Workers

but any others in the same ball park would be good to know about,
especially if they highlight Latino workers.  Thanks,

Re: [Videolib] films on undocumented workers

2013-02-11 Thread James Eowan
Hi Matthew,

7th Art also has a couple films that might be in line with what you're looking 
for:

VALLEY OF TEARS, Directed by Hart Perry
http://www.7thart.com/films/Valley-of-Tears

Dense, contradictory and distressingly honest, Valley of Tears is that rarity 
among political documentaries: a genuinely thought-provoking film. 
-The New York Times

Years as Barbara Kopple's cinematographer serve documaker Hart Perry well with 
his magnificent cinema verite epic of campesino struggle in a small south Texas 
town. 
-Variety

Hart Perry (Director of Photography - Harlan County, USA), has documented the 
lives of Mexican-American migrant farm workers in Raymondville, TX since 1979 
when the onion workers' strike broke out. What followed was a fight not only 
for higher pay but also for equal rights and representation. For 24 years, the 
county's Mexican-American residents were determined to fight for what is right. 
Valley of Tears is a complex story of the long journey of individuals who 
endure hardship in order to make a better future for their families.

BEYOND BORDERS, Directed by Brian Ging
http://www.7thart.com/films/Beyond-Borders

Beyond Borders moves past the headlines and takes an in-depth look at the 
hot-button issues of legal and illegal immigration. The film explores the 
forces driving the immigration controversy from both sides of the debate. 
Anti-immigration activists demand we stop this illegal alien invasion,” while 
some pro-immigration forces speak of a Reconquista, a reclaiming of the 
American Southwest by Mexico. In search of a middle ground, Beyond Borders 
travels across the U.S. and beyond to give voice to those on the front-line of 
the issue, including candid interviews with Border Patrol agents, radio talk 
show celebrities, demographers, the Minute Men, potential migrants, and a host 
of experts including Noam Chomsky (Distorted Morality) and Gustavo Arellano 
(Ask A Mexican). Beyond Borders is an entertaining and enlightening film that 
asks: Is migration a basic human right?

Best,
James
