Storied Streets (MOD) (DVD Movie)

Day and night they roam the gritty streets armed with only the latest medical gear and a siren. At any moment, their radio could send them plunging into the unknown: cardiac arrest, gunshots, or a fatality. The largest Emergency Medical Service in the world, New York City's EMS answers 1.3 million calls a year. Working frantically in situations where seconds mark the difference between life and death, six-hundred and fifty paramedics and 1,700 emergency medical technicians patrol the city 24 hours a day, seven days a week. With graphic footage of real-life situations, EMERGENCY! goes behind the scenes with the nation's busiest street crew to see how lives are saved, and sometimes lost.

When the power of God hit Los Angeles...The Azusa Street Revival of 1906. Over one hundred years ago a movement like none other since shook the very foundations of the American church. People reported speaking in tongues, new denominations were formed, and the Charismatic Movement was born. This documentary looks, in depth, at the inception of this movement and the mystery and controversy surrounding some of its beliefs.

A film, by Rob Fruchtman, Cornelia Ravenal, Mikael Sodersten, Wendy Sax Six, about diverse dancers from the acclaimed Battery Dance Company who travel the world, working with youth who have experienced war, poverty, prejudice, sexual exploitation, and severe trauma as refugees. In India they work with girls rescued from sex trafficking and gender violence; in Romania, with gypsy kids from one of Europe's worst slums; in South Korea, with young North Koreans who risked their lives to escape; and in Iraq, with a gifted young Muslim dancer, fighting to survive. Incredibly, they have just one week to teach the tools of choreography and collaboration to kids who may be enemies, who may have been abused, who may be suspicious and fearful, so that they can create dances to perform for their communities. As they struggle to break through, the dancer-teachers confront their own frustrations. Yet their students respond in extraordinary ways - and as they prepare to perform in public in what seems an impossibly short time, both students and teachers experience surprising transformations, unlocking feelings and stories in wellsprings of creativity.
