Item no. : JH08691903 Format : DVD Duration : 20 minutes Copyright : 2012 Price : AUD 235.00 HUMAN RESOURCES WORKPLACE WORKPLACE ETHICS ETHICS Answer the question "Why be ethical?" and teach all employees, including managers and supervisors, an ethical decision-making process that protects your organization and makes it a better place to work. Ethics matter. It's not just the big scandals you see in the news, but the small everyday decisions that add up, too. In fact, that's where you need to draw the line—with the little things—before serious damage is done. This employee ethics training video follows four realistic scenarios that demonstrate the importance of basic values such as respect for others, fairness, and honesty. And it teaches a three-part decision-making process that helps employees find their way to a solution even in complex situations where the right answer doesn't come easily. Employees will learn to recognize behaviors that may do harm, determine whether they are personally responsible to take action, and compare possible outcomes to select the solution that best repairs the ethical breakdown while protecting the integrity of the organization. Employees all share the responsibility to act ethically and to speak up if they see coworkers behaving badly. Use this training DVD to raise awareness, provide a framework for ethical decision making, and help create a company that employees can be proud of. Item no. : NN02500349 Format : DVD (Closed Captioned) Duration : 16 minutes Price : USD 229.00 HUMAN RIGHTS 900 900 DAYS DAYS Directed by Jessica Gorter Is it better to acknowledge an unpalatable truth or to embrace the comfort of myth? Jessica Gorter's 900 DAYS contrasts the devastating and unforgettable stories recounted by survivors of the Siege of Leningrad, the infamous German blockade, which caused the deaths of more than 1 million people during World War II, with the triumphant memorials fabricated by the Russian state. The blockade, one of the most incredible, defining events of World War II, remains largely unremembered outside of Russia. In September 1941, the 3 million inhabitants of the city now known as St. Petersburg were trapped without food or drinking water. For 900 days of subzero temperatures, people had to eat glue, leather soles, cats, and perhaps even their fellow human beings. When the city finally opened up again, nearly a million had died. Immediately after the war, investigations of the blockade were forbidden. The Soviet propaganda machine transformed the survivors into a symbol of national heroism, silencing any questions about Stalin's war policy and its toll on the lives of ordinary Russians. In 900 DAYS, Gorter employs newly declassified material from the Secret Service archives that reveals, in coldly impersonal statistics, the extent of cannibalism in the blockaded city and the population's fury with their own authorities. Footage of present-day Russian memorials to the survivors of the siege illustrate the persistence of the official, heroic account of the event even in light of this new information. Elsewhere in the film, survivors speak openly, many for the first time in their lives, about their experiences and the post-war censorship. Their painful memories overshadow the public myth in which some of them had previously participated. All their lives they have been told they were heroes who guided the country toward victory, but they are increasingly aware that true recognition of their traumatic experience and the ruinous policies that allowed it to continue is still, even after half a century, far away. Reviews
contradiction between the oficial version of a heroic populace persevering for the Motherland, and the private bitterness of a people disgusted by the way the Soviets and their heirs avoid questions of responsibility. Beautifully integrates past and present...900 DAYS shows that even grasping the horrors on an individual level is ultimately a task few are capable of comprehending." - Jay Weissberg, Variety �� "These stories are not for the faint of heart. But the documentary will help students to understand the difference between memory and history, and between the heroic stories states often tell about wars and the suppression of the real events that did not fit their narratives. As such, this is an ideal documentary to show in any history class dealing with World War II or Soviet history." - Educational Media Reviews Online Awards � Best Dutch Documentary, 2011 IDFA Amsterdam � Special Jury Prize, 2011 ArtDocFest Moscow � Interreligious Prize and Special Mention for Grand Prize, 2012 Visions du Reel � Special Mention, Magic Hour Award, Plante Doc, Warsaw Item no. : FZ03210831 Format : DVD (Color) Duration : 77 minutes Copyright : 2011 Price : USD 398.00 TINIEST TINIEST PLACE, PLACE, THE THE THE By Tatiana Huezo On the surface THE TINIEST PLACE is the story of Cinquera, a village literally wiped off the official map during El Salvador's 12-year civil war. But on a deeper level it is a story about the ability to rise, to rebuild and reinvent oneself after a tragedy. Holding the past and present in focus together, the film takes us to the tiny village nestled in the mountains amidst the humid Salvadoran jungle, while villagers, survivors of the war's massacres, recount their journey home at war's end. When they first returned their village no longer existed. Nevertheless they decided to stay. And over the years as they worked the land, built new homes and started new families, the people of Cinquera learned to live with sorrow. THE TINIEST PLACE juxtaposes scenes of contemporary village life, of Cinquera's remarkable renaissance, with stories of the war - how conflict arose, civil war erupted, and hopes for liberation turned to struggles for survival. "Don't cry when they kill me" a mother recalls her 14-year old daughter telling her before running away to fight with the rebel army. And though the village's history is always visible - in an elaborate memorial for the dead, or the persistent tremor of a survivor's hand, towards the end of THE TINIEST PLACE we too are returned to the present. A cow gives birth, a high school marching band plays, and children walk to school in the rain. We see that, if Cinquera is reemerging, it is through the strength and deep love of its inhabitants. Reviews � "A profound expression of the twin powers of life and death...The subject of the Central American wars of recent decades has rarely received such a level of artistic treatment onscreen" - Robert Koehler, Variety � "Unforgettable...One of the finest docs I've seen over the past year" - Howard Feinstein, Filmmaker Magazine � "Superb. 10/10" - Cynthia Fuchs, PopMatters Awards � Best Feature Film, Visions du Reel � Best Mexican Film, Monterrey International Film Festival � Documentary Special Mention, Morelia International Film Festival � Best Direction & Best First Feature, Cinema Tropical Awards � Spotlight Award, Cinema Eye Honors Item no. : HH03400844 Format : DVD (Color) Duration : 104 minutes Copyright : 2011 Price : USD 398.00 UNFINISHED UNFINISHED SPACES SPACES Directed by Alysa Nahmias, Benjamin Murrary Multi-layered story of Cuba's National Art Schools project, designed by three young artists in the wake of Castro's Revolution. Cuba's ambitious National Art Schools project, designed by three young artists, Ricardo Porro, Vittorio Garatti, and Roberto Gottardi, in the wake of Castro's Revolution, is neglected, nearly forgotten, then ultimately rediscovered as a visionary architectural masterpiece. In 1961, three young, visionary architects were commissioned by Fidel Castro and Che Guevara to create Cuba's National Art Schools on the grounds of a former golf course in Havana, Cuba. Construction of their radical designs began immediately and the school's first classes soon followed. Dancers, musicians and artists from all over the country reveled in the beauty of the schools, but as the dream of the Revolution quickly became a reality, construction was abruptly halted and the architects and their designs were deemed irrelevant in the prevailing political climate. Forty years later the schools are in use, but remain unfinished and decaying. Castro has invited the exiled architects back to finish their unrealized dream. UNFINISHED SPACES features intimate footage of Fidel Castro, showing his devotion to creating a worldwide showcase for art, and it also documents the struggle and passion of three revolutionary artists. Reviews � "Truly exceptional...Confirms that the real power of architecture lies in its ability to both capture the spirit of a place, time and people." - Robert McCarter, practicing architect, Professor of Architecture, Washington University � "An engaging, intimate, and humane portrait that explores the lives of little-known designers and opens broad questions about the relationship between architecture and the history of ideas." - Dr. Paul Niell, Assistant Professor of Art History, Florida State University � "Lucidly filmed...A stirring study... Absorbing." - Todd McCarthy, The Hollywood Reporter Awards � Film Independent Spirit Award � Best Reportage, Montreal Festival International du Film sur l'Art � Documentary Jury Prize, Salem Film Festival � Special Jury Prize, San Diego Latino Film Festival � Jury Prize, Semana Internacional de Cine � Jury Prize, Montreal FIFA Festival � Jury Prize, Valladolid International Film Festival Item no. : HV02790827 Format : DVD Duration : 86 minutes Audience : Grades 9-12, College, Adults Copyright : 2012 StdBkNo : 193777239X Price : USD 295.00 HUMANITIES UNFINISHED UNFINISHED SPACES SPACES SPACES Directed by Alysa Nahmias, Benjamin Murrary Multi-layered story of Cuba's National Art Schools project, designed by three young artists in the wake of Castro's Revolution.
