Disaster By The Bay: The Great San Francisco Earthquake and Fire of 1906
directed by: Ken Joy
Disaster by the Bay: The Great San Francisco Earthquake and Fire of 1906, a film by Ken Joy, is destined to be the definitive documentary of the greatest natural disaster ever to hit California. Never-before-seen footage, shot just minutes after the quake struck on April 18, 1906 at 5:13 a.m., combined with thousands of rare and previously unreleased photographs, and recreations of eyewitness accounts written by those who survived the disaster, culminate in this hour-long epic that chronicles the horror, the aftermath, and the heroes who survived it. Ken Joy's astonishing direction takes us into the heart of the vibrant city that was San Francisco at the turn of the century. The love of the Californian for his State, and the devotion of the San Franciscan to his city, were only intensified by the disaster of April 18, 1906. It is a matter of common observation that hardships and suffering wed people to their native land. Indeed, the fear had been expressed that in a country so fair as California, the people, pampered by luxury and enervated by ease, would ultimately lose the virile qualities of citizenship which makes a nation great. There were indications here and there of the evils which flow from uninterrupted prosperity, but the privations of a few brief months hardened every fiber, and softened every heart. Astonishing footage and photographs take us beyond the disaster by the bay, and give us a first-hand glimpse of what life was truly like in turn-of-the-century San Francisco.

The Untold Story of Emmett Louis Till
directed by: Keith A. Beauchamp
In August 1955, Mamie Till-Mobley of Chicago sent her only child, 14 year-old Emmett Louis Till, to visit relatives in the Mississippi Delta. Little did she know that only 8 days later, Emmett would be abducted from his Great-Uncle’s home, brutally beaten and murdered by one of the oldest Southern taboos: whistling at a white woman in public. The murderers were soon arrested but later acquitted of murder by an all-white, all-male jury.

The murderers were soon arrested but later acquitted of murder by an all-white, all-male jury.
Keith Beauchamp's groundbreaking film is the result of a 10-year journey to uncover the truth behind the nightmarish murder of an innocent African-American teenager. Emmett’s brutal murder - and his family’s brave actions in the horrifying aftermath- served as a major impetus for America's civil rights movement and led to Rosa Parks and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to make decisions that changed the course of history.
Discover for yourself why the Chicago Tribune wrote, "If you don’t believe film can change the world, you haven’t seen The Untold Story of Emmett Louis Till."
