And So It Begins is one of the new films in our Resource Library in 2025!

This award-winning documentary is set amidst the Filipino elections of 2022. It follows Leni Robredo's 2022 presidential campaign and the quirky people’s movement that rises to defend the Philippines against deepening threats to truth and democracy in a collective act of joy as a form of resistance.

If you are in the US, And So It Begins is available on PBS!

Rebel Hearts tells the remarkable story of the the Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary. In 1960s Los Angeles, they bravely stood up to the patriarchy of the Catholic Church, fighting for equality, their livelihoods, and their own freedom against an all-powerful Cardinal who sought to keep them in their place.

From marching in Selma in 1965 to the Women’s March in 2018, they put their bodies and their vocation on the line to fight for social justice. Their bold acts of faith, defiance and activism turned the Church upside-down, helping to reshape our society in ways that continue to resonate today.

TL:dr - Just watch it. You'll thank us.

Edit: We've added the Rebel Hearts trailer, which cracks our heart open in the best way.
