    Documentary Tells the Tale of "Public Enemies" Becoming "Private Friends"

    Documentary Tells the Tale of "Public Enemies" Becoming "Private Friends"

    Joining host Michael Azevedo on this episode are Sarah Perkins and Josh Sabey, the co-directors of "Public Enemies, Private Friends," a riveting documentary that tells the story of two murders, a secret meeting, and an impossible friendship.
    On December 30, 1994, a man carrying a black duffel bag entered an abortion clinic in Brookline, Massachusetts. By the day’s end, two women were dead, a manhunt was underway, a traumatized community was in mourning, and leaders on both sides of a divide wondered what they could have done to prevent it. It was at that juncture that a six year clandestine dialogue between enemies began.
    Set against the backdrop of the Salvi murders and the contentious court case that followed, "Public Enemies, Private Friends," follows six women—leaders on opposing sides of the abortion debate—who meet secretly and under threat of violence in an effort to replace dangerous and divisive stereotypes, strategies, and rhetoric with empathy, tolerance, and genuine friendship. 
    "Public Enemies, Private Friends" will be broadcast in the Boston area on PBS station, GBH on May 30. In early June, a more comprehensive version of the story will debut on Amazon Prime as a 6-part documentary series.

    Stephen Ujlaki Exposes the "Bad Faith" Behind Christian Nationalism

    Stephen Ujlaki Exposes the "Bad Faith" Behind Christian Nationalism

    Host Michael Azevedo is joined by Stephen Ujlaki, the director of "Bad Faith," a new documentary exploring the roots and the growing reach of Christian Nationalism. It’s a film that Ken Burns has called  “a great and powerful and timely film," filled with the dread this moment engenders; the cynical misuse of religion to advance aims diametrically the opposite of Christianity’s mission. 
     
    BAD FAITH endeavors to reveal how Christian Nationalist leaders have spread fear and anger for decades, distorting political issues into Biblical battles between good and evil. Financed through the secretive Council for National Policy, Christian Nationalists have succeeded in taking over the Republican Party, turning it into a powerful weapon to demolish democracy from within. The film traces the origins of this organized grasp for power and the grassroots coalition of secular and interfaith leaders bravely confronting the unholy forces threatening democracy.
     
    "Bad Faith" is now available to stream on demand.

    Mary Mazzio Brings Us "Bad River"-- A Story of Defiance and Resistance

    Joining host Michael Azevedo on this episode is former Olympian and award-winning documentary filmmaker Mary Mazzio to talk about her latest film, "Bad River." 
     
    "Bad River" chronicles the Wisconsin-based Bad River Band, which is a group within a tribe of native Americans, and their ongoing fight for sovereignty, which unfolds in a groundbreaking way through a series of shocking revelations, devastating losses, and a powerful legacy of defiance and resilience.
    This inspiring project brings us through the epic sweep of history into the present, with a David and Goliath battle over a 70-year-old pipeline on the brink of rupture into Lake Superior, the largest freshwater resource in America. 
    "Bad River" is currently enjoying a successful limited theatrical run and is available for streaming for Xfinity customers and is also available via Vimeo.
    Mary Mazzio’s credits include A Hero for Daisy, I Am Jane Doe, A Most Beautiful Thing, Ten9Eight, and Underwater Dreams.
    Her work “explores the concept of overcoming obstacles, whether it is a fight for social change… or issues of poverty and lack of opportunity...and sheds light on ordinary people doing extraordinary things – defying expectations and challenging assumptions of who and what they can achieve. Mazzio’s powerful new documentary Bad River is no exception.

    Amanda McBaine & Jesse Moss Delve Into "Girls State"

    Amanda McBaine & Jesse Moss Delve Into "Girls State"

    Host Michael Azevedo speaks with Amanda McBaine and Jesse Moss, the co-producers and directors of “Girls State,” a revealing and inspiring documentary follow up to their award-winning 2020 film "Boys State."
    "Girls State" poses the question: What would American democracy look like in the hands of teenage girls? A political coming-of-age story and a stirring re-imagination of what it means to govern, “Girls State" follows young female leaders — from wildly different backgrounds across Missouri — as they navigate an immersive experiment to build a government from the ground up, form a Supreme Court, and debate the divisive issues of the day.
    Jesse Moss and Amanda McBaine have collaborated on several high profile film projects in addition to "Girls State" and "Boys State," including "The Mission," "The Overnighters," "Mayor Pete" and "The Bandit," among others. And they just so happen to be husband and wife. 

    "Girls State" is currently available on Apple TV+.

    "Against All Enemies" Investigates the Threat of Radicalized Military Vets

    "Against All Enemies" Investigates the Threat of Radicalized Military Vets

    Joining host Michael Azevedo on this episode is Charlie Sadoff, the director of a documentary called "Against All Enemies," which explores the critical role of military veterans in domestic violent extremist groups.
     
    Through gripping personal perspectives from all sides of this ongoing crisis, "Against All Enemies" goes deep inside the violent extremist movement in America, alongside the Proud Boys, 3 Percenters, and with never-before-seen footage of the Oath Keepers. These groups, organized and led by highly trained military veterans, pose one of the greatest threats to the United States today.
     
    The film explores the historical roots of the insurrectionist cause, its conspiracy-fueled draw for today’s veterans, and the ways that coming powerful politicians, like Donald Trump, and highly decorated former military officers, like former general Michael Flynn employ disinformation to manipulate these former vets.
     

    Charlie Sadoff is a producer, director and editor. Documentaries he has produced include The Mind of Mark Defriest which aired on Showtime, Dream Riders for Discovery, and the 10-part series The Rites of Autumn for ESPN.
