Small Pleasures | MovieTeller films, 2008


VIMEO NOTES. Once upon a time in a country far far away a boy lived, very different from all the others. His name was Eftichis. Everything ran smoothly in his life until one day, many many years ago an incident made him see life from a different perspective. And suddenly, a big secret was revealed.

Food Stamps at Farmers’ Markets

posted at Vimeo: Thursday, December 10, 2009


VIMEO NOTES. Since 2006, the New York City Council has helped farmers markets sell their local products to people buying with food stamps. To make the sales, the markets need hand-held, electronic reading devices, and the council now provides them to 23 of the city’s 50 green markets. The result, said the city council in a report last month, is that green markets’ food stamp sales have doubled in the last year. Less clear, though, is whether those using the food stamps are the long-term poor, who were the group the city council’s program was designed to help.

Coconut Revolution

This is an incredible modern-day story of a native peoples' victory over Western globalization. Sick of seeing their environment ruined and their people exploited by the Panguna Mine, the Pacific island of Bougainville rose up against the giant mining corporation, Rio Tinto Zinc. The newly formed Bougainville Revolutionary Army began fighting with bows and arrows and sticks and stones against a heavily armed adversary. In an attempt to put down the rebellion the Papua New Guinean Army swiftly established a gunboat blockade around the island. But with no shipments allowed in or out, how did new electricity networks spring up on the island? And how were the people of Bougainville able to drive around the island without any source of petrol or diesel? Watch as the world's first eco-revolution unfolds within the blockade. A David and Goliath story for the 21st century. A multi-award winning documentary
