Alike: A Father-Son Story
|
| What happens when an animator becomes a father? He makes a film. Directors Daniel Martínez Lara and Rafa Cano Méndez, along with former students of the animation school Pepe-School-Land and animators from other well-known studios in Spain, spent more than four years on this crowd animated labour of love. The award-winning short film, "Alike," follows Copi and his son, Paste, who he is trying to raise "right." "Children turn your world upside down," Lara says in a making-of video. "When you are a father, you often wonder what the best thing is for your children. This short movie intends to be a reflection in that sense." There is not one word of dialogue in the film, but the message is loud and clear. |

Charles Halpern: Cultivating Wisdom for Justice
Charles Halpern exemplifies cultivating inner resources for working in justice and social transformation. His contributions to education, law, and social movements have been facilitated by his inner work around wisdom and mindfulness. In this interview, Halpern describes how his practice grounds him while working to transform the criminal justice system. He explains, “We shouldn’t respond when we’re driven by rage, but instead when we’re driven by a sense of possibility — a possibility that we can open new dialogues in this country, and back off from the intense polarization that’s characterized American decision making processes over vitally important matters for decades. How can we come together in a place of dialogue, mutual respect and interconnection?…I think that can only be done by people who have done some inner work and be the leaders of that conversational process. { read more }
