The Story of Stuff
(2007)
From its extraction through sale, use and disposal, all the stuff in our lives affects communities at home and abroad, yet most of this is hidden from view. The Story of Stuff exposes the connections between a huge number of environmental and social issues, and calls us together to create a more sustainable and just world.

No Logo (2003) In the age of the brand, logos are everywhere. But why do some of the world's best-known brands find themselves on the wrong end of the spray paint can — the targets of anti-corporate campaigns by activists and protestors? Based on the best-selling book by Canadian journalist and activist Naomi Klein, this film reveals the reasons behind the backlash against the increasing economic and cultural reach of multinational companies.

Suggested contribution: $4 per adult / $2 child or student includes a muffin and refreshing drink.
