"Brothers On The Line" explores the influential journey of the Reuther brothers, labor statesmen and civil rights champions who dedicated their lives to the struggle for social justice. This film not only weaves a striking personal narrative of one family's commitment, but provides timely commentary on issues that resonate far beyond their era (pensions, healthcare, the environment, worker rights, democratic trade unionism around the world, etc.) By exploring this crucial piece of history, this film has the potential to motivate, educate, and contribute to the discourse on labor, civil rights and political action in the US and abroad.

"Red Dust" tells an unexamined side of China's economic development: the resistance, courage, and hope of workers battling occupational disease, demanding justice from the local government and global capital. Chinese migrant workers are deemed disposable by factory owners and are stereotypically viewed as quiet and passive victims. However, Ren and other GP workers (Min, Fu, and Wu) fight back. Labor issues are very sensitive in China, and workers who publicly discuss their struggles do so at great risk. The audience discovers along with the filmmaker, a Chinese American, the horrors of the global assembly line. This documentary is about women who are the engine of the global economy. Although the film takes place in China, the characters' experiences are universal to workers on the margins around the world, where poverty, migration, and workplace hazards are common realities.

Who will win this David and Goliath struggle?

Who are our fortune hunters? Who evades paying taxes and pockets large sums of money? This film forms part of an extensive Belgian campaign laathet grote geld niet ontsnappen (don't allow big money to escape) this campaign is devoted to greater fiscal justice.

In June 2010, the (men's) football World Cup finally arrived in Africa. Yet the "rules" for hosting the world's most popular event are often clouded by controversy and the event itself is often marked by injustice, corruption, and exploitation "on the ground." The 2010 World Cup in South Africa was no exception. Thousands of families already living in dire straits were brutally sentenced to a life of poverty, as they were evicted to tin shacks miles from their homes, hidden from the television screens and the world's media attention. Tin Town follows local residents through police brutality, family separation, and their struggle to reclaim the people's game.
