Alienated

In Alienated, we meet Licia, a determined young woman from St. Vincent who commutes from Brooklyn to New Jersey to work as a nanny for $4 an hour. Meanwhile, anti-immigrant groups rally around lobbying efforts that seek to impose ever harsher policies and to “protect our borders.” Through interviews with individuals on both sides of the immigration debate, Alienated examines what it means to be young, able and “illegal” in America.

From a Silk Cocoon

The trailer for the movie Silk Cocoon where a Japanese American woman late in her life goes to retrace the steps of her mother, a prisoner in an interment camp during World War 2 who renounced her American citizenship. The powerful conclusion shows us why, and leaves us with a taste of what's to come in the full version.

Notes from Porto Alegre

In January 2005, youth producers from Global Action Project traveled to Porto Alegre, Brazil to participate in the World Social Forum. Using the WSF credo "Another World is Possible" youth interviewed activists who participate in local and global social movements, and filmed cultural and political activities in the Youth Camp, City of Hip Hop and other spaces at the WSF. Included are interviews with Sem Terra Movement (Brazil), Cooperativa Impa (Argentina), La Fabrica Ciudad Cultural (Brazil), Jubilee South (South Africa), Freedom of Expression Institute (South Africa).
