In God We Teach - Vic Losick (New York, New York)
“Jesus did everything in his power to make sure that you could go to heaven… and he’s saying, ‘Please, accept me, believe.’ If you reject that, you belong in hell.” In God We Teach is the story of Matthew LaClair, a public high-school student in Kearny, New Jersey who secretly recorded this statement (and others) made in class by David Paszkiewicz, his history teacher. After approaching the local school board for redress and receiving none, LaClair took his secret recordings to the media. When the recordings were made public, the story exploded, not just through Kearny, but across America. Paszkiewicz has remained largely silent until his appearance here, in this engrossing, feature-length documentary. In today’s polarized world, discourse can be strident and discussion difficult. In God We Teach, however, endeavors to be even-handed in its tone and consideration of issues of religious freedom, freedom of speech, and the teaching of evolution in America’s high schools.  2011; 62 min. With an in-person appearance by director Vic Losick!

“The brave are those who see imminent danger and still walk into it.” That's how Maureen Fanning, widow of New York firefighter and battalion chief Jack Fanning, describes the selfless sacrifice the FDNY made on September 11, 2001.  Over 340 New York City firefighters died in the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center. The bravest of the brave; they were fathers, sons, brothers, and husbands. This is the story of their widows and children, and the resilience, courage, and indomitable human spirit embodied by those who have survived extraordinary loss. It also celebrates the myriad contributions that 9/11 families have extended to their communities as they seek ways to honor those who were lost. 2011; 32 min.

The film encompasses the spirit the world showed New York on the days, weeks and months following 9/11. Each year, the members of the communities that they help pay it forward the next year, and what started from a small seed has grown into a movement comprising over 3,000 volunteers. A story of devastation, strength, healing, compassion, but most importantly – of heart. 2011; 86 min.
