against women. Provides concrete solutions and practical
approaches. Gives great insight into the construct of
sexism and courageously challenges the privileges and
entitlements given to men. Unique in its ability to be
affirming and respectful to the experiences of women
while expressing genuine care and hope for men.

CAUGHT IN THE WEB: Hunting the Predators
In this documentary we see how the Internet fuelled an explosion of child abuse, how police are racing to learn new CSI-type
techniques to find the children displayed in abuse images that are flooding the web, and how young people can be
empowered so that they can turn the tables on the predators and reclaim the Internet as a safe global neighborhood for all.
With testimony from victims, leading world psychologists and top police commanders, this program looks at the crucial
challenges of a new face of crime in the 21st century. For the first time, cameras go behind the scenes as police in Europe,
the United States, and Canada join forces to infiltrate an international pedophile ring on the Internet. From behind prison
walls, we hear from the child sex offender who first tipped off the police. Inside the high-tech police centres in London,
Washington and Toronto, we follow the undercover operatives as they track down the predators and rescue more than 50
children. #11922/0973 49 minutes 2007 $149.95 *Canadian Production
CHILDREN ARE A GIFT: Overcoming Child Abuse
Child abuse and neglect seem to have reached epidemic levels in our world today, and unfortunately millions of children who
look to adults for love and care instead find pain and suffering. In this program, we speak with author David Pelzer, a victim
of life-threatening child abuse. We also take a look at the role foster parenting plays in the life of an abused or neglected
child. #12396/0145 28 minutes 2004 $179.95 *CC
FALLEN FEATHER: Canada's Indian Residential Schools
"It is important for us to be reminded that the Residential Schools were all about the eradication of Indianess in the country.
They were designed to do away with the Indian fact in the country. And to mould us into something that obviously we could
never be." National Chief Phil Fontaine
The Fallen Feather provides an in-depth critical analysis of the driving forces behind the creation of Canadian Indian
Residential Schools. Using historical source documents, survivors' personal testimonies, and detailed analysis from
community leaders, the film explores in detail the Federal Government's primary motivation in the creation of these Schools.
While examining the influences of Indian wars, Sir John A Macdonald's National Policy, Land Claims issues, the film details
how all of these events and visions contributed to the development of these Schools. The film argues that the lasting effects
that First Nations in Canada suffer today can be traced back directly to their experiences within these schools. Finally, we as
Canadians are all challenged to re-examine our shared history.

GENERATION NOW
Demonstrates how parental emotional neglect, not unlike physical abuse, can have life-long repercussions when experienced
by children of any age, socioeconomic, or cultural/ethnic backgrounds. But what constitutes emotional child abuse?
Viewers learn that this neglect can take many forms: parent absenteeism; demonstrations of apathy or hostility towards the
individual child, the family or even the community in general; no verbal or physical demonstrations of affection like hugs,
kisses, compliments and encouragement; constant badgering and criticism. When children do not feel loved, they develop
low self-esteem which leads to future unhealthy coping mechanisms such as self-harm, substance abuse, or delinquency.
An important program for pre-teens, teens, and parents. #12486/0235 Six 15-minute segments with Discussion
