OUT OUT IN IN THE THE SILENCE
SILENCE
Out in the Silence examines gay rights
and issues. The announcement of
filmmaker Joe Wilson's wedding to
another man ignited a firestorm of
controversy several years ago in the small
Pennsylvania town of Oil City -- a place he
left behind long ago. Drawn back by a plea
for help from the mother of a gay teen
being tormented at school, Wilson takes
viewers on an exhilarating journey through
love, hate, and understanding in rural
America. Filmmakers will be in the WPSU
studios as the station premieres the work.
"Out in the Silence" debuts on WPSU-TV
on Friday, Sept. 11 at 9 p.m. as part of the
station's fall pledge drive. Portions of the
documentary as well as other outreach
materials are available online at
http://wpsu.org/outinthesilence. "Out in the
Silence" takes viewers on a personal
journey through conservative small town
America as the filmmaker becomes
immersed in the battle over gay visibility
and equality that unfolds in his hometown
in Venango County, Pa. over a three year
period. With camera in hand, Wilson
engages with traditional-values activists,
conservative politicians, school authorities
and everyday local folks. He follows the
trials and tribulations of a grassroots effort
to promote diversity and tolerance in the
area and forms an unlikely and
transformative friendship with a
fundamentalist preacher.

DOCUMENTARY
ADELE'S ADELE'S WISH
WISH
Adele's Wish is the remarkable story of an
84-year-old Los Angeles woman's struggle
to recover five rare paintings stolen from
her family by the Nazis in 1938. The
artworks were painted by world-renowned
Austrian artist Gustav Klimt. For nearly a
decade, Maria Altmann and her lawyer,
Randol Schoenberg, battle Austria for the
return of these incredibly valuable
paintings. Although it begins as a legal
dispute, the struggle quickly turns into a
political, cultural, and ethical confrontation.
In the process, Austria is forced to
re-examine not only its role in Nazi art
thefts, but also its anti-Semitic past.

BEJART! BEJART! BEJART! DID DID YOU YOU YOU SAY SAY

BEJART?
BEJART?
BEJART?
This documentary, made with the
complicity of Maurice Bejart, reveals the
first 30 years of his life which were totally
unknown: his happy childhood in Marseille,
the painful loss of his mother, his classic
training at the hard Russian school, his
father's death, the philosopher Gaston
Berger, the debuts in Birgit Cullberg's
Swedish company.
All these events marked the dancer, the
choreographer, the artist, the thinker, and
they throw a new light on his work. It is the
genius of Bejart under all it's forms that is
shown in this film which proposes a global
vision of this already legendary figure of
dance.
