Michael Moore, David Hogg, Donald J. Trump.A provocative and comedic portrait of Donald Trump as a bully, a liar, a racist, a hedonist, a father with a creepy closeness to his daughter Ivanka and a man who doesn't even try to hide his baser instincts. The way that Michael Moore sees it, Trump runs his country like one of his corporations, like a dictatorship. Cross him and it's firing time. He even compares Trump to Hitler, dubbing the President's own words into the Fuhrer's mouth. It will explore the two most important questions of the Trump Era: How the f**k did we get here, and how the f**k do we get out?Canadian Home Video Rating: PG.MPAA rating: R; for language and some disturbing material/images.DVD ; widescreen presentation ; Dolby Digital 5.1.

Theodore Roosevelt. by Jones, Rufus,actor.; The History® Channel (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Rufus JonesOriginally produced by The History® Channel in 2022.Based upon Doris Kearns Goodwin's New York Times bestseller, "Leadership: In Turbulent Times" this two-part series provides a rich, panoramic portrait of the first modern President of the United States -- Theodore Roosevelt, a champion of social justice, a passionate conservationist and the self-proclaimed “bull moose” who once delivered an 84-minute speech bleeding from the chest after being shot in a failed assassination attempt. THEODORE ROOSEVELT explores the breadth and depth of one of history’s most interesting men—a cowboy, soldier, statesman, conservationist, adventurer, reformer and author who suffered profound personal loss and became at age 42 the youngest president of the United States, having a monumental impact that is still felt today. From coming to understand Roosevelt’s privileged yet sickly childhood, viewers will see how his early motivation and perseverance to “make” his body set him up for a lifelong pursuit of fighting injustice.Mode of access: World Wide Web.

Salma. by Longinotto, Kim,film director.; Royal Anthropological Institute (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Originally produced by Royal Anthropological Institute in 2013.When Salma, a young Muslim girl in a south Indian village, was 13 years old, her family locked her up for 25 years, forbidding her to study and forcing her into marriage. During that time, words were Salma’s salvation. She began covertly composing poems on scraps of paper and, through an intricate system, was able to sneak them out of the house, eventually getting them into the hands of a publisher. Against the odds, Salma became the most famous Tamil poet: the first step to discovering her own freedom and challenging the traditions and code of conduct in her village.Mode of access: World Wide Web.
