- When homosexuality was depathologized in China in 2002, it still remained a taboo for the most. Homosexual lovers lived in the shadow of marginalization, defending their silent love against the prying gazes. It is also in this year that Xia Gu and Amber Zheng, two lesbian lovers, choose to adopt the 10-year-old Ellie from the orphanage. Yet facing the strong opposition from her traditional parents, Xia is torn in halves and forced to rethink what a family truly means to her. At the same time, her self-doubt also stirs up insecurities inside Amber and Ellie. When she decides to return to hometown to take care of her suicidal mother, the tension in this newly formed family mounts up once again.
- Despite his promise of "No new taxes", in 1990 President George HW Bush signed a budget package that included a new Luxury Tax. This simple act, while necessary to get the budget approved, dealt a devastating blow to the US yacht building industry. Among those impacted by the new tax were the employees of Viking Yachts in New Jersey. After the suicide of one of their employees, Viking's owners, Bill and Bob Healey, mounted an aggressive campaign to repeal the Luxury Tax. Determined to spare their company from bankruptcy, the brothers' tireless, three-year battle also helped to save an industry.
- Fred Bowers, a fisherman, is going out to the fishing grounds in his motorboat one morning when he sees an aeroplane in trouble. The aeroplane falls into the water, and Fred, going to its assistance, saves George Almy, the aviator, from drowning. Almy repays his rescuer by proceeding to fall in love with the girl Fred intends to marry. Ruth, the girl in question, is at first unable to make up her mind, but Almy's polished manner and suave ways soon begin to have an effect, and she finally decided to elope with him. Fred, in his motorboat, sees them starting out in another boat, and follows them. Almy, discovering that they are followed, puts on all speed in an attempt to escape, but finding that it is useless, puts Ruth in a deserted shack on the shore, and with her wraps still in his boat, sets out again with the idea of leading Fred astray far down the coast, and then of landing and making his way back to Ruth by automobile. Fred, seeing Ruth's wraps in Almy's boat, believes she is still there, and follows. Finally, after a desperate chase, he overhauls the ex-aviator. A terrific fight ensues in which the brawny fisherman is eventually victorious. Meanwhile, Ruth, shut in the shack, discovers that the tide is beginning to overflow the floor. As time passes, the water grows higher and higher. She is boxed in like a rat in a trap with no possibility of escape. Fred finally succeeds in forcing Almy to confess where he has left the girl. Overcome with horror at the realization of what the rising tide will do, he bends every effort to get to the shack in time. He gets there just as Ruth has given up all hope, and rescues her from the hungry waters. Needless to say, Ruth realizes that she has made a mistake, accepts Fred, and dismisses the ungrateful Almy from her affections.
- ABOUT THIS STORY: Sea level rise is an effect of global climate change. How does this work? As oceans absorb heat from carbon pollution, the waters expand. As glaciers melt, more water pours into the oceans. Climate disruption causes higher tides and storm surges. The result: more and more flooding for cities like San Francisco. ABOUT THE SERIES: Rising sea levels bring high tides and high waves to our shores. It is no longer possible to halt all the impacts coming with climate change. It is time to start adapting to those changes that are now inevitable. These are the stories of men and women living along the water. Their responses can provide a model for people everywhere in the face of this growing global crisis.
- These five digital stories are the words and voices of tribal members from three communities in coastal Louisiana. Being in an alternative format to traditional film, these stories tell the personal narrative of what the storytellers and their communities have been through in facing historical and current oppression, rapid environmental change and the risk of displacement. We hope that the experiences of these storytellers can be shared so we can learn from each other and understand the important connection between people and place.
