Driving Miss Daisy

Set against the backdrop of the Civil Rights Era, Driving Miss Daisy tells the story of Miss Daisy and her newly hired Chauffeur Hoke. Although Miss Daisy lives a life of privilege while Hoke is an AfricanAmerican man in the days of Jim Crow, they discover they have much in common. Their relationship, spanning a 25-year period, is a reflection of critical changes in American society. Daisy and Hoke deal with anti-semitism, racism, and class differences while their bond grows ever stronger. Full of wit and charm, Miss Daisy and Hoke take audiences on an unforgettable, moving journey.

Life on the Edge of the World: The Westfjords of Iceland Between June 2008 and October 2010, Matt Willen made 9 trips to the Westfjords of Iceland to document the nature of life in this remote corner of the world.

Located in the extreme northwest of Iceland, the Westfjords (an area about the size of Rhode Island) is home to about 7,300 people who live in a dozen small communities situated on the edge of the Arctic Ocean and the Greenland Strait. The landscape is stunning, the climate harsh, and compared to life in the United States, life is not easy. Yet the people there live rather full and enjoyable lives. Through photographs, stories, music, and some factual discussion of the region, Willen explores the nature of life in the area, its natural history, economy and social structure; and discusses how people live so well on comparatively little.
