Docuseek recently added new films from Bullfrog Films and Icarus Films to The Docuseek Complete Collection 4th Edition, an exclusive collection of award-winning films meticulously curated to provide educators with unique content that cannot be found elsewhere.
From Bullfrog Films, the world's leading distributor of films about the environment and related social-justice issues, major award-winners added include Ackroyd & Harvey: The Art Of Activism, an intimate portrait of internationally acclaimed artists Heather Ackroyd and Dan Harvey, who work at the intersection of art, activism, biology and ecology; The Age of Water, about industrial farms leaving behind a poisonous source of drinking water; Inheritance, which explores the underlying causes of the opioid epidemic in America through the life of one boy and five generations; and The Specter of Populism, which sheds light on the complex theories of populist politics and their relevance to our current political landscape.
From Icarus Films, a leading distributor of independently produced documentary films and world cinema, films added include Chris Marker's Bestiary, the first compilation of Marker's short films devoted exclusively to animals; films on Israel-Palestine, including four films from Ilan Ziv (filmmaker of Capitalism) and On the Edge of Peace, which chronicles the first year of the implementation of the Israeli-Palestinian accords as experienced by both Palestinians and Israelis; Save Our Souls, which places viewers alongside sailors and medics as they face the perilous mission of rescuing migrants from overcrowded boats; and Melt, from prolific filmmaker Nikolaus Geyrhalter (Matter Out of Place, Our Daily Bread, Elsewhere, Pripyat), which preserves some of the world's most compelling frozen landscapes for the archives of the future, while addressing environmental and political questions of our age.
Licensing options are one-year, three-year and Life of File for single titles, The Docuseek Complete Collection 4th Edition, The Bullfrog Films Collection and The Icarus Films Collection. Contact us at sales@docuseek2.com for questions.
