EGM Little Town of Bethlehem Trailer
Finding the courage to end violence through nonviolence.
Little Town of Bethlehem shares the gripping story of three men, born into violence, willing to risk everything to bring an end to violence in their lifetime.
A Christian, a Muslim, and a Jew—shaped by events of their Palestinian and Israeli upbringing—find inspiration in the words and actions of Martin Luther King Jr. and Mahatma Gandhi.
Sami, Ahmad, and Yonatan believe that violence can indeed be stopped but recognize their own struggles will remain. Yet they will struggle together to discover a common humanity through non-violent action.
In the city of Bethlehem where it is said God became man, these men stand alongside others whose central desire is to be accepted and treated as fully human.
Their story brings fresh hope to the ongoing conflict between Palestine and Israel while taking a stand against violence throughout the world.

EGM The Grandfathers Trailer
Jesse Saint never knew his Grandpa Nate, just that he cared deeply for the Waodani Indians before he died a martyr by their hands.
His father Steve was called a "hero of the faith" for helping the Waodani end a cycle of spear-killings that claimed Nate and decimated their own numbers.
It was a story that stained glass windows are made out of, yet Jesse Saint spent his whole life not living up to that heroic image.
In The Grandfathers, award-winning director Jim Hanon (End of the Spear, Miss HIV) looks at this remarkable true story through Jesse's eyes. What can it mean to step out of your father's shadow and find your own destiny?
Fusing film shot deep in the Amazon jungle with visionary design & animation, this documentary takes you into Jesse's world as he builds his own life with the men who killed the grandpa he never knew.
Through a patchwork of stories, Jesse's misadventures in the jungle soon turn into serious work when he sees Waodani culture and his family dying around him.
To Jesse, these Waodani men had become his real grandfathers. And the farther he steps out of the Saint family story, the closer Jesse gets to realizing he's not so different from his grandpa, after all.

EGM Miss HIV Trailer
Stigma is the shame placed on others in judgment for their actions.
"Miss HIV" follows three stories woven by this common thread. The first story follows women in Botswana as they journey through the Miss HIV Stigma-Free pageant. The second concerns activists at the International AIDS Conference who defend gay rights against stigma. And the third regards college students in Uganda who fight the stigma that's directed against their choice of abstinence.
"Miss HIV" was filmed on location across Sub-Saharan Africa and at the AIDS Conference in Toronto with Bill and Melinda Gates and Bill Clinton.
"Miss HIV" takes viewers on a provocative journey to expose stigma and together confront the AIDS pandemic.
