Hey folks!
For the first time, Passion River Films will be exhibiting at ALA and we look forward to seeing you all in New Orleans! Some of the more recent titles to be available for viewing at Booth 3462 include: Houston We Have a Problem: Step inside the energy capital of the world, to hear the hard truth about oil, straight from the Texas oilmen themselves. InGreedients: Ride along on this culinary roller coaster as Registered Nurse and filmmaker David Burton finds out from cornucopia of leading researchers and the most respected scientists and health care professionals in the world just what partially hydrogenated oil is and what zero grams of trans fat per serving really means. Music By Prudence: This Oscar winning film give us a heart-wrenching look at life in Zimbabwe, where disabled babies are often killed at birth. Follow the story of how Prudence and a band of people with disabilities triumph, and gain acceptance, over seemingly insurmountable odds. But we also encourage you to take a look at our website before you leave for New Orleans and drop us a note with any requests of our films that you'd like to see when you stop by our booth.

It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
