GIRL UNSCRIPTED
Family, love, heartbreak, opportunity, poverty, abuse, drugs...the life of a girl is complicated, and they frequently have no means of expressing themselves, or worse, no one who'll listen. Relating to these struggles of teenage girls, award-winning filmmaker Tara Veneruso took this to heart and started a filmmaking camp for girls- giving them the opportunity to express themselves and tell their stories. This documentary series spans more than10 years where we see teenagers/pre-teens transform into full grown women; a fascinating chance to experience life through the eyes of open and brave girls. The accounts the filmmaker documents are raw, touching, sad, and hopeful. The trials and triumphs of a person's life in her own words...a "Girl Unscripted."
WE HAVE JUST BEGUN
WE HAVE JUST BEGUN
Uncovering the deadliest racial massacre in American history
In 1919, black workers' decades-long efforts to challenge exploitation in the Arkansas Delta culminated in the nation's deadliest racial massacre and labor battle. During the Red Summer of 1919, a series of 36 race and labor riots throughout the US erupted during a period of war demobilization. Prompted by black efforts to organize their collective labor power to increase their share, white mobs, police, and federal troops brutally murdered hundreds of black men, women, and children.
WE HAVE JUST BEGUN brings together recent evidence, community testimony, and historical studies to create a comprehensive portrait of a pivotal sequence in Arkansas / American civil rights and labor history. With a hard look at the legacy of “slavery by other means” in the Arkansas Delta, we see how it has been resisted and how the spirit of resistance was kept alive in Delta music and culture.

FAME/LESS
FAME/LESS is a gritty look at the life of musician Robert Hunter as he takes his music and personal struggles on the road. After his wife, Becky, beat cancer- Nashville recording artist, Robert Hunter, packed his guitar and suitcase, quit his job, and embarked on a nationwide tour to share their story of resilience. They said goodbye to family and friends and set out to see the country together. 50 states, 600 shows, and 150,000 miles in a cramped RV with a guitarist and a dog has taken a toll. A tour that was billed as Robert’s big break and the trip of a lifetime has turned into a struggle beyond anything they could have imagined.
A HOUSE WITH MANY ROOMS
From award-winning filmmaker Kevin Bryce, A House with Many Rooms follows he and his wife Stacey as they begin their journey fostering children. They agreed from one of their first conversations that they wanted to foster children. After six years together they finally felt they’d gotten their lives and family to a place where they were ready. A House with Many Rooms tells the story of never really being ready. The journey takes them down roads they didn't expect and through both painful and joyful experiences they couldn't have imagined. They find themselves desperate to bring stability to children lost in an unpredictable world. It's an honest undertaking of what it means to welcome children living with trauma into your home. Their expectations are transformed, their patience is pushed to the limits, their strength is challenged, their love is tested, and their hairs are grayed. Ultimately, it is a story of family: broken but redemptive, and messy but beautiful.
