From 2011 to 2013, hundreds of regulations were passed restricting access to abortion in America. Reproductive rights advocates refer to these as "TRAP" laws, or Targeted Regulation of Abortion Providers. While these laws have been enacted in 11 states, Southern clinics, in particular have been hit hardest and are now in a fight for survival. In Texas, less than half of the clinics open in 2013 are still functioning. In Alabama, three clinics struggle to keep their doors open. And in Mississippi, just one abortion clinic remains. Some of the most common requirements with which clinics struggle to comply include: requiring physicians to obtain admitting privileges from local hospitals for any doctor performing abortions, requiring that clinics undertake expensive renovations such as widening hallways by a few inches to accommodate wheelchairs and gurneys they will rarely use, and requiring other regulations usually reserved for hospitals even though abortion providers rarely require such a high level of care. But even in this hostile environment the doctors, clinic owners and staff refuse to give up. Trapped interweaves the personal stories behind these regulatory battles: from the physician who crisscrosses the country assuring medical services are available; to the strong women and men who run the clinics; to the lawyers leading the legal charge to eliminate these laws; to the women they are all determined to help. In this feature length character driven film, our main characters fight alongside a dedicated cadre of attorneys to preserve abortion rights in a country living with the mistaken belief that Roe v. Wade still protects a woman's right to choose.

Humane treatment of animals has always been my passion, and while horses and humans have worked together since the beginning of time, horses remain one of the most misunderstood animals on our planet. Buck Brannaman has spent his lifetime with horses and he truly gets how the horse thinks, learns and feels. He has developed a communication with them that garners amazing results in a remarkable respectful way that the horse really responds to. After filming my documentary BUCK, I sat through the editing process wishing everyone could see and learn from the invaluable footage that I had. The documentary was very successful bringing awareness to Brannaman and his masterful horsemanship, but it wasn't the appropriate format to impart specific instructional techniques. It was my desire to complete my mission of making people aware of this kind of compassionate horsemanship that eliminates excessive harsh treatment and equipment, and encourages a more natural approach to the horse and his environment. It took over a year to review 300+ hours of footage and organized Buck's lessons into more than 10 hours of detailed instruction taken directly from his clinics, titled 7 Clinics with Buck Brannaman. Ive spent my life riding horses and taking lessons, but once I was taught this method, I realized that I had unknowingly spent many years just confusing my horses and putting them on the defensive. It is my mission that everyone ride in this manner, no matter what discipline, for the safety and joy of both horse and rider.
