Long Time Coming: A 1955 Baseball Story

1 hr 27 mins

In 1955, when racial segregation defined the South, two groups of twelve-year-old boys stepped onto a baseball field in a non-violent act of cultural defiance that would change the course of history. Jackie Robinson had broken the Major League color barrier eight years earlier, but segregation still prevailed. Our future hinged upon local Southern communities to either embrace Robinson's pioneering efforts, to redouble its longstanding commitment to segregation, or to remain quietly complicit in a system of racial inequality. Florida's 1955 Little League State Championship represents a shining moment in our nation's history when children led us all toward a better way. In one of the first integrated Little League games in the South, the all-Black Pensacola Jaycees and the all-White Orlando Kiwanis moved beyond fears, threats and the unknown to break with tradition and show the world what was possible. More than 60 years later, team captains Will Preyer (Pensacola) and Stewart Hall (Orlando) embark on personal journeys back to the game 1955 and find that the forgotten event becomes a bridge to embracing the turbulence of today's social landscape. In addition to interviews with surviving members of the 1955 Pensacola Jaycees and Orlando Kiwanis, the film includes personal conversations with Major League Baseball and Civil Rights icons Hank Aaron, Cal Ripken, Jr., Gary Sheffield, Davey Johnson and Ambassador Andrew Young who offer insight linking the past, the present, baseball and human dignity.

Under the auspices of "free will' and "progress" the human race is in truth, being manipulated by a nefarious force that is as old as humanity itself. These forces have been orchestrating world events since time immemorial and have left traces of their existence in code, cipher and symbolism...not the least of which is 666, the number of the beast. Explore the truth behind the global agenda and how the Antichrist plays a role in the slave/master prophecy of power relegated to the chosen few.

Pain Warriors

1 hr 15 mins

"Pain Warriors" a new film by Visionary Media Inc. examines with unflinching truth "the forgotten ones" in the war on drugs. Long time pain patients denied life - giving medications by "one - size fits - all governmental policies," can be driven to suicide, while some compassionate doctors that treat them have been threatened with loss of license and even incarceration. Are the human rights of pain patients and pain doctors being sacrificed for politically expedient policies ? Would we take away someones insulin, beta blockers or blood thinners - because a small percentile of the population found a way to monetize those drugs and get high off them ? While the current Opioid crisis is an important and pressing issue that needs to be faced head on, equally important but under -represented in the media, are the lives of patients who build their lives around managing life long pain with no cure in sight. Intractable pain does not discriminate: young or old, black or white, rich or poor, it strikes when least expected. "They" could be any one of "us" - in a flash. We are, all of us, only one car accident , one surgery or one degenerative condition away from a challenging life lived in chronic pain. Eugene and Tina hope to bring a balanced view to this emerging issue, with Chronic Pain exploding in numbers in North America, and beyond. Recent surveys reveal that 7 million Canadians and another 113 million Americans live with a lifelong, debilitating pain condition, at a cost of some $634 Billion annually in the USA alone. This is no small disease - there is no small answer. In making this film, we hope to illuminate the dark corners of this growing health crisis and encourage positive dialogue towards implementing solutions.
