Am helping out a few more films while attending ALA next week:
Fatal Promises (www.fatalpromises.com <http://www.fatalpromises.com/> ) - In the era of globalization one of the most exploited commodities is human life. Through personal stories from victims of trafficking, and interviews with politicians, non-governmental organizations and prominent spokespeople like Emma Thompson and Gloria Steinem, Fatal Promises pushes for awareness and education. And from Welcome Change Productions (www.welcomechange.org <http://www.welcomechange.org/> ): The Collector of Bedford Street - An Academy Award-nominated short film about a neighbor with a disability and a community with a plan. Body & Soul: Diana & Kathy - Disability advocates model a grand experiment in independent living. For something completely different - as a member of COLAGE (Children of Lesbian and Gays Everywhere) I did a promotional interview for the new film Beginners (and after having finally seen it I'm glad I did) so thought I'd share the link: http://focusfeatures.com/video/colage_for_beginners_rachel?film=beginners See you all in New Orleans!

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. 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.
