Project Wild Thing is a documentary with a message: “Go play outside.”
Filmmaker David Bond wants to know what happens if an entire generation of children grows up completely disconnected from the natural world. In an era of proliferating screens, kids are spending less time outdoors than ever before — and the impact could have profound consequences on our societal well-being.
Mansome: A Documentary About Being A Man Today - “Morgan Spurlock, director of documentaries Super Size Me, 30 Days and The Greatest Movie Ever Sold, is back, and again exploring new territory. This time, Spurlock finds himself tangled with the likes of Hollywood’s most elite leading funnymen like Will Arnett, Jason Bateman, Paul Rudd, Zach Galifianakis and Adam Carolla, to learn about the evolving laws of attraction to the modern man. Or more specifically, what it takes to be “mansome” — both manly and handsome.”

Claire Morgan: About Time
One of our personal favourites of recent years.
A short documentary portrait of Claire Morgan, a contemporary fine artist and sculptor using taxidermy and suspended natural objects to creating arresting pieces of modern sculpture.
The documentary was commissioned specifically for The National Centre for Craft & Design’s exhibition “About Time - Sculpture by Claire Morgan” (21/05/2011 - 04/09/2011).

Is graffiti a beautiful art form or a symbol of desecration? Director Max Good discovered a small, dispersed group of Bay Area residents who were so angered by graffiti in their neighborhoods, they assumed the role of anti-graffiti vigilantes — taking to the streets late at night to cover the art with silver paint. In doing so, they garnered lawbreaking reputations of their own. A new film called “Vigilante Vigilante” tackles the issue of street art and free expression in a whole new light. The film interviews famous street artists like Shepard Fairey as well as vigilantes about what’s at the root of the debate.
Good shares with us his inspiration for following these vigilantes and gathering their stories.

WAR-TOYS is a documentary film that follows artist/photographer Brian McCarty as he works to complete a new project in the Middle East. Using Brian’s unique toy photography and principles of play and art therapy, the project explores firsthand accounts of war from the perspective of children living in its day-to-day reality. Working through local humanitarian organizations in Israel, Gaza, and the West Bank, Brian’s WAR-TOYS project focuses on the latest generation of Israelis and Palestinians that has never known an existence without the constant threat of rocket attacks, air strikes, gunfire, explosions, and incursions.
Footage seen above was produced in early 2011 during Brian’s proof of concept journey, working primarily through the Spafford Children’s Center in East Jerusalem as well as the Idbaa Cultural Center inside the Deheisheh Refugee Camp. Later this year, Brian will return to complete his project and collaborate with children under the care of both Israeli and Palestinian NGO’s across the region.
