SUMMARY:Margaret Mead Film & Video Festival
DESCRIPTION:Flock of Dodos (Randy Olson\, 2006). Who are the dodos in the current debate over evolution versus intelligent design?  With a Super Size Me – style good spirit\, marine biologist turned filmmaker Randy Olson travels the country in search of an answer.  He starts with his 82 year old mother who is neighbors with the top lawyer for intelligent design in Olson’s home state of Kansas\, which is the epicenter of the controversy.  This film gets beyond the tedium of the “debate” of who’s right and who’s wrong.  Instead\, it explores how those who embrace each side are “communicating” their ideas to the public.   \n\n\n\nPart of iEAR Presents!\, co-sponsored by the Department of the Arts at RPI and funded in part by the Electronic Media and Film Program at the New York State Council on the Arts\, a state agency.

SUMMARY:"The Business of Being Born" Screening
DESCRIPTION:Birth: it’s a miracle. A rite of passage. A natural part of life. But more than anything\, birth is a business. Compelled to find answers after a disappointing birth experience with her first child\, actress Ricki Lake recruits filmmaker Abby Epstein to examine and question the way American women have babies. The Business of Being Born interlaces intimate birth stories with surprising historical\, political and scientific insights and shocking statistics about the current maternity care system. When director Epstein discovers she is pregnant during the making of the film\, the journey becomes even more personal. Should most births be viewed as a natural life process\, or should every delivery be treated as a potentially catastrophic medical emergency?  \n\n\n\nCo-sponsored by BirthNet.

SUMMARY:"What Would Jesus Buy?" Screening
DESCRIPTION:What Would Jesus Buy? follows Reverend Billy and the Church of Stop Shopping Gospel Choir as they go on a cross-country mission to save Christmas from the Shopocalypse: the end of mankind from consumerism\, over-consumption and the fires of eternal debt! From producer Morgan Spurlock (Supersize Me) and director Rob VanAlkemade comes a serious docu-comedy about the commercialization of Christmas. Bill Talen (aka Reverend Billy) was a lost idealist who hitchhiked to New York City only to find that Times Square was becoming a mall. Spurred on by the loss of his neighborhood and inspired by the sidewalk preachers around him\, Bill bought a collar to match his white caterer’s jacket\, bleached his hair and became the Reverend Billy of the Church of Stop Shopping.  \n\n\n\nSince 1999\, Reverend Billy has gone from being a lone preacher with a portable pulpit preaching on subways\, to the leader of a congregation and a movement whose numbers are well into the thousands. Through retail interventions\, corporate exorcisms\, and some good old-fashioned preaching\, Reverend Billy reminds us that we have lost the true meaning of Christmas.  \n\n\n\nWhat Would Jesus Buy? is a journey into the heart of America – from exorcising the demons at the Wal-Mart headquarters to taking over the center stage at the Mall of America and then ultimately heading to the Promised Land … Disneyland. Will we be led like Sheeple to the Christmas slaughter\, or will we find a new way to give a gift this Christmas? What Would Jesus Buy? may just be the divine intervention we’ve all been searching for. The Shopocalypse is upon us …Who will be $aved?
