"Name-calling and bullying have reached epidemic proportions in schools today. Let's Get Real gives young people the chance to speak up in their own words about the real issues behind the problem. With amazing courage and candor, students discuss racial differences, sexual harassment and more. From the youth who were targeted, to the students who pick on them, to those who find the courage to intervene, Let's Get Real examines bullying from a wide range of perspectives. This poignant film educates audiences of all ages about why we can no longer accept name-calling and bullying as just a normal part of growing up." -- Slipcase.… (más)

It's Elementary--Talking About Gay Issues in School takes cameras into classrooms across the U.S. to look at one of today's most controversial issues--whether and how gay issues should be discussed in schools. Hailed as 'a model of intelligent directing' by International Documentary, the film makes the case that all children are affected by anti-gay prejudice and that adults have a responsibility to address it. Showcasing teachers leading non-judgmental discussions with students about gay and lesbian people, the film demonstrates that students are eager to have honest conversations and learn about differences and respect. Also included is the retrospective documentary, It's Still Elementary, which follows-up with some of the students and teachers from It's Elementary. It tells the fascinating history of why the film was made, the response it provoked from the conservative right, and the questions it raises about the national safe schools movement today." -- Case.… (más)

"That's a Family! is a highly entertaining half-hour documentary that breaks new ground in helping kids see and understand many of the different shapes that families take today. Designed especially for children in elementary school, That's a Family! will stretch your mind and touch your heart, no matter what your age. With blunt and sometimes hilarious candor, the children who star in That's a Family! take us on a tour through their lives and speak movingly about their unique family experiences, explaining concepts like 'birth mom,' 'mixed race,' 'guardian,' 'gay and lesbian,' and 'stepdad.'" -- Case.… (más)
