Boredom
The first serious documentary on boredom.
Director Albert Nerenberg asks why the subject of boredom has been so religiously avoided and shows that boredom isn't what one thinks it is. The film's breakthrough research suggests boredom is likely a state of stress. It may also be killing people. Perhaps the powers that be would rather people not know that, especially if one is inside some kind of educational institution or dead end job. Note Bonus features: Revolutionary accelerated unboring version (48 min.) for the easily bored. Informative, cute, funny, and based in neuroscience. Interesting stuff. |

A Path Appears
"A unique and essential 4.5-hour documentary series addressing the roots of gender inequality, the devastating impact of poverty and the ripple effects that follow, including: sex trafficking, teen-pregnancy, gender-based violence, child slavery and the effective solutions being forged to combat them."
-------------- Intense and some segments were very difficult to watch. Major trigger warning. |

"Living with Lincoln" - while not my favorite, is very engaging and nicely woven through a century. On HBO currently in rotation.

I just watched Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief , a really interesting brand-new documentary about how nuts Scientology is. Apparently the Church of Scientology forbids it's members from watching it...or anything in the news about Scientology. L. Ron Hubbard was insane!
