No Country for the Poor

0 hrs 52 mins

In Hungary, the poor and weak are increasingly stigmatized to obscure the failure of the state. While authorities continue monopolizing power and turning citizens into subjects, extensive revisions of the fundamental law criminalized homelessness and reformed the social sector cutting the amount of available social benefits. In Hungary today 120,000 state-owned flats stand empty, while almost 30,000 people have no home. But AVM (English: THE CITY IS FOR ALL), a group of homeless people and activists, confronts the authorities to defend the right of shelter, social welfare and human dignity. They work to improve the situation of people in poverty by speaking up against unjust social policies. The group fights by occupying Parliament Square, preventing evictions, lobbying local authorities and providing pro bono legal aid to those in need. AVM is a mini-society based on solidarity and democracy in a society that is gradually drifting "the other way". Three years of intensive research into AVM's life has given us unprecedented access to the group and its protagonists. Their community and their shared sense of purpose give them the strength to fight injustices, in line with the Civil Rights Movement tradition. Their personal stories and reflections inspire agency and citizenship that means taking life into your own hands. Many ask, what is democracy in Europe today? What is its face in a country like Hungary, where every third citizen lives under the poverty line, where social housing makes up less than 3% of the housing stock?

The Longest Walk

1 hr 35 mins

Dubbed, "The Jackie Robinson of Classical Music," bassist Charles Burrell changed the face of classical music forever becoming the first person of color to play with a major symphony orchestra in the United States beginning in 1949 with the then, Denver Symphony Orchestra. In 1959, he fulfilled a lifelong dream to play with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Pierre Monteux, the esteemed conductor. He stayed with the orchestra for another six years, returning to play with the Denver Symphony, later the Colorado Symphony, until his retirement in 1999. Charlie may be the only musician to lay claim to performing at the highest level in both jazz and classical music genres. His résumé in jazz reads like a proverbial all-star team, having performed with such luminaries as Billie Holiday, Errol Garner, Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan, Benny Goodman, Clark Terry, Duke Ellington and Miles Davis to name but a few. As an educator, he passed on his gifts and advice to young musicians, some of whom are considered the best at their craft in the world including Major Holly, Dianne Reeves, George Duke, Purnell Steen and countless others. Join Charlie on his historic journey through time with Denver as the backdrop. The Five Points neighborhood was thriving as an artistic center of the city. Charlie played jazz in the famous venues of the time, including the Rossonian Hotel. At the same time, he was a strong symphonic bassist in Denver. Charlie helped to form the cultural identity of Denver, despite the politics in play, some of which adversely affected Charlie as a man of color. He remarkably rose above it all through his grace, intellect, and incomparable music.
