See this movie. .” Phil Bronstein, Editor-at-Large, San Francisco Chronicle Many Chileans refer to “the other 9/11” — the Sept. 11, 1973 coup, led by General Augusto Pinochet, against the democratically elected government of Socialist Salvador Allende. The coup left, thousands of Chileans dead, tortured or “disappeared.” Allende died, apparently by suicide. The ensuing 17-year dictatorship was embraced then, and even now, by a large segment of Chilean society, as is made chillingly clear in the new documentary The Judge and the General. But many Chileans resisted Pinochet — at first covertly and then more openly — even as the regime was increasingly isolated abroad. Sensing the waning of their military rule in the late 1980s, Pinochet and his colleagues engineered a transition to civilian government intended to guarantee them a heavy hand in succeeding governments — and immunity from prosecution.

  • Beyond the Choir Has Helped Me with That.” – Jennifer Taylor, Director of “New Muslim Cool”
    “In the theatre, there’s this idea that on stage you should project, so that the people in the back rows can hear it. I think the same is true with film: you want to project clearly so lots of different kinds of people can hear your film, and connect with it. I can’t begin to say how much Beyond the Choir has helped me with that.” – Jennifer taylor, Director of “New Muslim Cool” An Assessment of B e y o n d t h e Choir An initiAtive of Paul VanDeCarr 2 Beyond the Choir 1. “Beyond the Choir” Background Preaching to the choir is often maligned as a useless practice. But preachers do it every week, and with good reason: it’s part of how they build a community of belief and mutual support. the audience at a documentary film screening is often not so unlike a church congregation. People may go to see an advocacy film they already agree with, or share their anger or grief with a like-minded audience or rally themselves for action. Consider the house-party screenings of Robert Greenaway’s documentaries on Wal-mart or the iraq War. such screenings can be a uniquely effective way for the “choir” to learn, connect and activate. for nearly a decade, Active voice, and its predecessor, television Race initiative, have transformed a host of powerful documentaries into tools for social change agents. the organization has created “framing” materials and provided technical assistance to help viewers understand the human dimension of policy issues. Although Active voice has occasionally worked with “advocacy” films—those that are structured to lead the viewer Welcome to Shelbyville, to a particular conclusion and rally them with a clear call to action—the organization has Photo: Greg Poschman specialized in working with documentaries that feature nuanced story lines, complex characters and real-life depictions of multiple perspectives.
