Scarred Justice: The Orangeburg Massacre 1968
On February 8, 1968, eight seconds of police gunfire left three young men dying and at least 27 wounded on the campus of South Carolina State College in Orangeburg, S.C. All of the police were white, all of the students African-American. Almost all of the victims were shot from behind as they fled the gunfire that erupted without warning. The Massacre happened after four days of student protests to desegregate the city’s only bowling alley. It was the first time ever police opened fire on students on a U.S. campus. Two years later Kent State would shock the nation. |

Unfinished Symphony
This one-hour documentary film, set primarily in Lexington, Massachusetts over Memorial Day weekend in 1971, examines a local conflict that reverberated nationally. Operation POW was organized and led by Vietnam Veterans Against the War (VVAW).

More than 400 veterans and townspeople were incarcerated in the town's public works garage, resulting in the largest arrest in the history of the state. This film premiered in the Documentary Competition at the 2001 Sundance Festival and has screened extensively throughout the US and in Europe.

The Special
The Special is a musical story told by musicians and their music. Named after a seasonal train that ran down the East Coast to Florida, Orange Blossom Special was written in 1938 by fiddle virtuoso Ervin T. Rouse and made famous by Chubby Wise.The song's evocation of the train's sound and speed has been a hallmark of the fiddler's art but has also been interpreted in every musical form. Without narration, the film explores this thread of musical tradition with some of the greats, such as Johnny Cash,Vassar Clements, Bela Fleck, Charlie Daniels, String Cheese Incident, The DelMcCoury Band and others, including the award-winning New Zealand fiddler, Marian Burns.
