MUST SEE - "YOU DON'T LIKE THE TRUTH" - 9PM TONIGHT - TVO

Posted by Noah Bingham on Wednesday, June 15, 2011.

If you have not seen this film, DON'T MISS IT. Doc on Omar Khadr "You Don't Like the Truth - 4 Days inside Guantanamo" on TVO, tonight at 9pm EST and Sunday June 19, 7pm EST. An incredible film by Luc Cote & Patricio Henriquez.

You Don't Like the Truth

"You Don't Like the Truth: A teenager, a locked room and the ugly truth." Rick Groen, GLOBE AND MAIL

"Reminiscent of Errol Morris' The Thin Blue Line or Standard Operating Procedure, You Don't Like The Truth is a politically loaded documentary." Suzan Ayscough, SCREEN DAILY

"A frankly gobsmacking documentary." Liz Braun, THE TORONTO SUN

"If this documentary doesn't fill you with sorrow, fury and revulsion, then democracy, human rights and justice are hollow words and we belong in the same moral dead zone as fanatics who oppress and destroy in the name of faith." Bruce DeMara, TORONTO STAR

"This film is important, and deserves to be seen" George Stroumboulopoulos, CBC

FITC // Storytelling X.0 - June 20th 2011

Posted by Noah Bingham on Wednesday, June 01, 2011.

Catherine Lathwell, ST5 Outreach Coordinator, will be speaking about her project, Chasing Men who Stare at Arrays, and The Secret Trial 5 at the FITC - Digital Storytelling X.0 Conference on June 20, 2011. An interesting conference about technology and storytelling if you can attend.

Screen shot 2011-06-01 at 5.44.01 PM

Digital Storytelling X.0 is a one day symposium exploring how digital technologies are changing forms of storytelling today. New technologies are changing how we communicate at ever faster intervals. What the digital landscape will look like in 2015 or 2020 is anybody’s guess. As transmedia, cross-media and augmented reality raise the bar for how new stories will be told, how can new and experienced digital storytellers stay ahead of the curve?

This day is about connecting today’s best practices with future possibles and envisioning multiple ways that stories might be told. It will change the way you think, design and communicate. Digital Storytelling X.0 brings together visionary thinkers and innovative trail blazers for an in-depth discussion of emergent trends, best practices, and inspiring projects, to sketch out ideas of where we may be heading next and how to make your projects part of those futures.
