The documentary is a portrait of Malala Yousafzai, who was wounded when a Taliban gunman boarded her school bus in Pakistan’s Swat Valley on October 9, 2012 and opened fire. The then fifteen-year-old teenager who had been targeted for speaking out on behalf of girls’ education was shot in the face. No one expected her to survive. The documentary follows the story of her recovery. Now living with her family in Birmingham, England, Malala has emerged as a leading campaigner for the rights of children worldwide and in December 2014 became the youngest-ever Nobel Peace Prize Laureate.

    Dear Parent/Guardian To accommodate our studies of The Dressmaker of Khair Khana by Gayle Tzemach Lemmon, I would like to show my students the movie He Named Me Malala. HE NAMED ME MALALA is a portrait of Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Malala Yousafzai, who was targeted by the Taliban and severely wounded by a gunshot when returning home on her school bus in Pakistan’s Swat Valley. The then 15-year-old was singled out, along with her father, for advocating for girls’ education, and the attack on her sparked an outcry from supporters around the world. She miraculously survived and is now a leading campaigner for girls’ education globally as co-founder of the Malala Fund. Documentary filmmaker Davis Guggenheim shows us how Malala, her father Zia and her family are committed to fighting for education for all girls worldwide. The film gives us a glimpse into this extraordinary young girl’s life – from her close relationship with her father who inspired her love for education, to her impassioned speeches at the UN, to her everyday life with her parents and brothers.

  • How to Engage Students Through Movies New Partnership Formed by USC Rossier Combines Film- Based Curricula with Professional Development for Teachers
    How to engage students through movies New partnership formed by USC Rossier combines film- based curricula with professional development for teachers BY Matthew C. Stevens October 9, 2015 He Named Me Malala follows the life of Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai. (Photo/courtesy of Fox Searchlight Pictures) Movies are coming to a classroom near you. The USC Rossier School of Education has formed a new partnership with Journeys in Film, an organization that develops film-based curriculum and discussion guides to engage students. The latest guide features He Named Me Malala, a drama that had its West Coast premiere at the Microsoft Theatre on Sept. 29 with 6,500 Los Angeles public school girls in attendance. “It is exactly this kind of synergy we are hoping to generate by using films to inspire and educate today’s students,” said USC Rossier Dean Karen Symms Gallagher, who marveled at the enthusiastic reception of the film by students gathered to kick off Girls Build LA, an initiative of The Los Angeles Fund for Public Education. “Films have the power to change lives, and USC Rossier is excited to partner with Journeys in Film to multiply this same kind of impact many times over.” Founded in 2003 by Joanne Ashe, Journeys in Film hopes to expand its reach through this collaboration with USC Rossier’s Office of Professional Development. As much as this is about film, it’s even more about education. Joanne Ashe “We take feature films and documentaries, both domestic and international, and develop curricula that are aligned with state standards,” said Ashe, executive director of Journeys in Film.

Sylvia (Charlize Theron) is een hardwerkende vrouw die verdoofd door het leven lijkt te gaan. In Mexico woont een jong meisje, Maria, zonder moeder. Ze is gelukkig met haar vader, totdat een tragisch ongeluk hier een einde aan maakt. In Las Cruces, een Mexicaans grensstadje, worden de twee tieners Mariana (Jennifer Lawrence) en Santiago verliefd na de plotselinge dood van hun ouders. Gina (Kim Basinger) en Nick hebben een hartstochtelijk affaire die ze, tegen beter weten in, niet willen beëindigen. In een meeslepend verhaal over verboden liefde ontdekken de hoofdpersonen uit THE BURNING PLAIN dat schuld en liefde desastreuze emoties kunnen zijn en dat vergiffenis essentieel is, hoe onbereikbaar het soms ook lijkt.

  • An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power
    AN INCONVENIENT SEQUEL: TRUTH TO POWER Synopsis “After the final no there comes a yes And on that yes the future world depends.” ~Wallace Stevens A decade after AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH brought the climate crisis into the heart of popular culture, comes the riveting and rousing follow-up that shows just how close we are to a real energy revolution. Former Vice President Al Gore continues his tireless fight, traveling around the world training an army of climate champions and influencing international climate policy. Cameras follow him behind the scenes – in moments both private and public, funny and poignant -- as he pursues the inspirational idea that while the stakes have never been higher, the perils of climate change can be overcome with human ingenuity and passion. Paramount Pictures and Participant Media Present an Actual Films Production of AN INCONVENIENT SEQUEL: TRUTH TO POWER directed by Bonni Cohen and Jon Shenk. The producers are Jeff Skoll, Richard Berge and Diane Weyermann and the executive producers are Davis Guggenheim, Lawrence Bender, Laurie David, Scott Z. Burns and Lesley Chilcott. Cinematography is by Jon Shenk, the editors are Don Bernier and Colin Nusbaum and the music is composed by Jeff Beal. AL GORE & THE CLIMATE CRISIS: 10 YEARS LATER “All the beauty of the world is at risk.” -- Al Gore In 2006, when Vice President Al Gore became the focal point of the Oscar®-winning AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH, he was the quintessential man at a crossroads – etching a new path in the wake of the grueling and controversial presidential election of 2000, which ended in an unprecedented Supreme Court decision.
