Important Documentary Feature Join or Die will be playing at the Spring 2024 New Jersey Film Festival on Saturday, February 10!
by Al Nigrin - published 2024-02-06
Join or Die is a film about why you should join a club — and why the fate of America may depend on it. In this feature documentary, follow the half-century story of America's civic unraveling through the journey of legendary social scientist Robert Putnam, whose groundbreaking "Bowling Alone" research into America's decades-long decline in community connections could hold the answers to our democracy's present crisis. Flanked by influential fans and scholars — from Hillary Clinton, Pete Buttigieg, and Surgeon General Vivek Murthy to Eddie Glaude Jr., Raj Chetty, and Priya Parker — as well as inspiring groups building community in neighborhoods across the country, join Bob as he explores three urgent civic questions: What makes democracy work? Why is American democracy in crisis? And, most importantly…What can we do about it?

by Andrew Leary - published 2024-02-05

There are those who believe in heaven and hell, and that we must be baptized in order to get into heaven, given that we have not committed any sins. But what of those who were not baptized? Sara Crow’s Bluebird explores this idea of questioning these mysteries and questioning the faith on which these mysteries are founded on. Moreover, it explores the innocence of children and how they might deal with the challenges that they face in life.
