Ed Miller's Anthracite Traction is thus not only a fascinating documentation of three long-gone electric lines, but a window back in time to the period when signs everywhere were welcoming "our boys" back home.

At Brest-Litovsk, on the border between Poland, and the former Soviet Union, the gauge on the train tracks radically changes: to move beyond Belorussia, the tracks must be wider. Building upon this profound metaphor, writer-director Marcel Lozinski probes the eyes of the passengers on international trains as they witness the changing of wheels under the train cars: do they sense that they?_(tm)re leaving one world to enter another? What kinds of fear, anxiety, anticipation are running through their minds? How do they feel about what they are leaving behind and what they will meet ahead?

The Ends of The Earth

An award-winning documentary portrait of the last political kingdom in America – Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana, a racial and ethnic gumbo in the swamps ruled for over 60 years by the all-powerful Perez family. From the time Judge Leander Perez came to power in 1919, he made headlines across Louisiana and throughout the country. The Judge and his two sons clamped down on all political opposition, restricted free elections, disenfranchised black citizens, and made millions of dollars from oil. In the 50s and 60s Judge Perez became a national spokesman for racial segregation, bankrolling George Wallace and going so far as to outfit an old Civil War fort as a high security prison for any civil rights demonstrators who dared to venture into his county. When the Judge died in 1969, Perez power was secure. But by 1980 his two sons began to feud with each other over their empire, and long-simmering democratic forces came to a boil. This was the exciting atmosphere that filmmakers Louis Alvarez and Andrew Kolker capture in The Ends of The Earth, as the first free elections in Plaquemines were held and the long-oppressed Blacks of the parish organized to get the basic services which had been denied to them for so long.

Equal Opportunity

Jack Mitchell is a man trying to survive in a woman's world. From the time he gets up in the morning to prepare his wife's breakfast until the end of the day, he is subject to the prejudices and small harassments that come with being the subordinate gender in an unequal society. Women whistle at him on the street; at a job interview he loses out to a less qualified applicant when he won't play with his female interviewer; and then there's the line at the men's room.

A clever social satire in which everyday stereotypes and roles are reversed, Equal Opportunity demonstrates the arbitrariness and absurdity of sexual inequality. It offers an entertaining, yet serious, look at a controversial subject, with lessons for both male and female viewers - though they might not see things in exactly the same way.

#604: Ethics: Cheating and Plagiarism

Is copying homework from a friend considered cheating? What about the Internet? The issue of cheating in schools is more prevalent and relevant than ever in todays culture. Polls show that 80% of high school students admit to having cheated and it is a real hot button among teens. In this program, teens speak out frankly about the reasons they feel the need to cheat. They also raise questions about the definition of cheating and when, if ever, it can be considered acceptable. We then meet ninth graders from a New Jersey high school who are required to participate in a series of ethics courses covering a variety of topics. As we sit in on a cheating and plagiarism workshop, we see them wrestle with typical situations and come up with solutions. The students also discuss the long term effects of cheating and ways that it might be prevented. This program is designed to open classroom discussion and critical thinking about ethical behavior among students in grades 5-12. This video addresses a troubling topic in an intelligent manner. - Booklist *DVDs are also available on over 50 other topics of critical interest to teens.
