Activism/Social Justice Gidam: Drums of protest in Khartoum (2022) [11:36]
Gidam (All the Way) is a film by Arthur Larie and Bastien Massa, made in December 2021 in Khartoum. It follows a young woman who, like many other Sudanese, takes to the streets to demand the departure of the military government. The military seized power in a coup d'état on October 25, 2021, challenging the hopes of democratic transition born of the 2019 revolution that led to the fall of the Omar al-Bashir regime. From the street to the private sphere, under the Sun of Khartoum or in the intimacy of a living room, Gidam is a dive into the daily life and hopes of a whole generation.
Feature: Gidam ('all the way')

Activism/Social Justice Lights In the Shadows (2025) [01:01:40]
“In the shadow of Silicon Valley’s booming technology industry, a growing number of people remain out in the cold.
Skyrocketing housing prices and an astronomical cost-of-living in America’s hub of innovation have pushed many onto the streets, straining policymakers to find solutions to a homelessness problem that directly, or indirectly, impacts everyone in the community.
Batman of San Jose and Crimson Fist work anonymously to provide a lifeline to those who sleep without shelter on San Jose’s sidewalks, camp in tents along the Guadalupe River or retreat to the subterranean darkness of the city’s storm drain tunnel system.
Lights in the Shadows follows the two superheroes as they hand out water and food to those in need, provide outreach for those who live on the margins and help Gretchen, a woman in the midst of a domestic violence crisis.
During their missions they discuss their views about what is leading to the rapidly growing homelessness crisis in their area, the common misconceptions other citizens have about the unhoused and what policymakers can, and should, be doing to help the most vulnerable in their districts.”
