She Rises Up

She Rises Up chronicles the remarkable journeys of three women working to lift their communities out of poverty through the local businesses they fight the odds to maintain. Gladys Yupanqui of Peru founded a mini-market and is looking to expand. Magatte Wade of Senegal is building a cosmetics company. Selyna Peiris of Sri Lanka is expanding the textile company founded by her mother. Gladys, Magatte & Selyna's stories are each unique unto themselves. Yet a common theme illustrates the critical importance of local businesses to emerging economies. These three women must prevail over issues that are not faced by the multinational corporations that come in. Opening a business in many countries is easier for a large foreign corporation than for local entrepreneurs. She Rises Up reveals the role entrepreneurs and small businesses can play in women gaining financial independence, and ultimately in reducing poverty for all.

The film follows Fox’s life and career from the streets of the Bronx, to his education at the Fontainbleau music conservatory near Paris where he studied with the legendary composition teacher Nadia Boulanger (who taught Aaron Copeland, Quincy Jones, Elliot Carter and Michel Legrand among many others), through his fabled career in Hollywood, and finally to Havana, Cuba where Fox “returns to his musical roots.”

Resistance: They Fought...

We’ve all heard of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, but most people have no idea how widespread and prevalent Jewish resistance to Nazi barbarism was.
