In September 1939, Władysław Szpilman, a Polish-Jewish pianist, is playing live on the radio in Warsaw when the station is bombed during Nazi Germany's invasion of Poland.

Jews are soon prevented from working or owning businesses, and are also made to wear blue Star of David armbands.

Kate in Oxnard | Award-Winning Drama Short Film
Kate moves to a small coastal town for a bartending job, anticipating a summer of freedom. What she finds instead is less idyllic, and she comes to realize she’s much more vulnerable than she thought.
A coming-of-age story that juxtaposes breezy romance with devastating #MeToo themes, Emily Tomson's Award-winning short is a powerful examination of what it means to be a woman in the world, and an important moment in becoming an adult.

Jail Deaths : Captured on Camera at Elgin-Middlesex Detention Centre - The Fifth Estate
There have been 10 suspicious deaths since 2009 at London, Ontario's Elgin-Middlesex Detention Centre, often just known as EMDC. Some by suicide, others from drug overdose and even brutal murders. EMDC has gained a reputation as one of Canada's most notorious and deadliest jails, so much so that even some correctional officers fear for their lives behind those walls. Habiba Nosheen investigates why so many inmates keep dying inside this institution and why more isn't being done to keep staff and inmates safe. And in a face to face interview with a man who murdered his cellmate, she tries to find out what is going on inside what some people call, the devil's playground.

In September 1939, Władysław Szpilman, a Polish-Jewish pianist, is playing live on the radio in Warsaw when the station is bombed during Nazi Germany's invasion of Poland. Hoping for a quick victory, Szpilman rejoices with his family at home when learning that Britain and France have declared war on Germany. But the promised aid does not come. Fighting lasts for just over a month, with both the German and Soviet armies invading Poland at the same time on different fronts. Warsaw becomes part of the Nazi-controlled General Government. Jews are soon prevented from working or owning businesses, and are also made to wear blue Star of David armbands.
By November 1940, Szpilman and his family are forced from their home into the overcrowded Warsaw Ghetto, where conditions only get worse. People starve, the guards are brutal, and starving children are abandoned in the streets. On one occasion, the Szpilmans witness the SS kill an entire family in an apartment across the street during a round-up.
On 16 August 1942, Szpilman and his family are transported to Treblinka extermination camp as part of Operation Reinhard. But a friend in the Jewish Ghetto Police recognizes Władysław at the Umschlagplatz, and separates him from his family. He becomes a slave labourer, and learns of a coming Jewish revolt. He helps the resistance by smuggling weapons into the ghetto, on one occasion narrowly avoiding a suspicious guard. Szpilman eventually manages to escape, and goes into hiding with help from a non-Jewish friend, Andrzej Bogucki, and his wife, Janina.
In April 1943, Szpilman watches from his window as the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, which he aided, unfolds, and then ultimately fails. After a neighbor discovers Szpilman in the flat, he is forced to flee to a second hiding place. The new room has a piano in it, but he is compelled to keep quiet, while beginning to suffer from jaundice.
In August 1944, during the Warsaw Uprising, the Armia Krajowa attacks a German building across the street from Szpilman's hideout. Tank shells hit the apartment, forcing him to flee. Over the course of the following months, Warsaw is destroyed. Szpilman is left alone to search desperately for shelter and supplies among the ruins. He eventually makes his way to a house where he finds a can of pickled cucumbers. While trying to open it, he is discovered by Wehrmacht officer Wilm Hosenfeld who learns that Szpilman is a pianist. He asks Szpilman to play on a grand piano in the house. The decrepit Szpilman manages to play Chopin's "Ballade in G minor". Hosenfeld lets Szpilman hide in the attic of the empty house. From here, he is regularly supplied with food by the German officer.
In January 1945, the Germans are retreating from the Red Army. Hosenfeld meets Szpilman for the final time, promising he will listen to him on Polish Radio after the war. He gives Szpilman his greatcoat to keep warm, and leaves. In Spring 1945, former inmates of a Nazi concentration camp pass a Soviet prisoner-of-war camp holding captured German soldiers and verbally abuse them. Hosenfeld, who is among those captured, overhears an inmate lament over his former career as a violinist. He asks the violinist if he knows Szpilman, which he confirms. Hosenfeld wishes for Szpilman to return the favor and help release him. Sometime later, the violinist is able to bring Szpilman back to the site, but they find it abandoned.
Later, Szpilman works for Polish Radio, and performs Chopin's "Grand Polonaise brillante" to a large and prestigious audience. An epilogue states that Szpilman died at the age of 88 in the year 2000, while Hosenfeld died in Soviet captivity in 1952.

KATE IN OXNARD
A Film By Emily Tomson
https://www.kateinoxnard.com/
"A work that is really two films in one (and much more fascinating for it), Kate in Oxnard is a coming-of-age story that subverts expectations. From writer/director Emily Tomson, the film navigates a young woman's loss of innocence as she transitions from a breezy fearlessness that is the hallmark of youth, towards a more clear-eyed realization of the nature of the world. Via Tomson's devastating juxtaposition of genres, and a standout performance from its star, Audrey Corsa, the film is an uncommonly sharp vantage into the feminine viewpoint and the precariousness of being a modern woman.
Shortly after the film begins, Kate shows up to a dilapidated coastal bar ready for the summer of a lifetime. What adventures await, she wonders? Money will be made, perhaps some cute guys will be found, all she knows is she's ready to live life to its fullest. Kate's eagerness is endearing, and comfortingly familiar—she comports herself in keeping with the societal ideal of young femininity—she is attractive, and in personality mixes equal parts bubbly precociousness and naïveté.
And yet, things take a wrong turn. After a cliché, but enjoyable montage of a night on the town with the newly met bartender, Kate returns to the place she's staying pleasantly tipsy. She wishes Sean a good night and collapses into bed. Later that night Sean pounds on her door. *Spoilers Follow*
The inciting incident that unravels Kate's sense of security feels small, but is loaded. She does not let Sean in, there is no assault, and yet she feels violated all the same. The next day Sean confronts her—he was missing his keys, and thinks he might have dropped them in her place when picking her up the night before.
Plausible right? Yet Kate remains on edge, there was a hint of malice to Sean's voice at the door, and when she initially can't find the keys later that day her suspicions intensify. It's a subtle move from Tomson to weave ambiguity into the narrative, and highlights her motivation with the film. Writing to us, Tomson shares:
"Kate begins the story fearlessly, only to have her best intentions betrayed by an unfamiliar man in an unfamiliar place. Everything she thought she knew was wrong, and to me, that realization is an important moment in becoming an adult."
It feels like a pretty grim outlook, but that viewpoint is undoubtedly my luxury as a man—can anyone doubt its veracity in the wake of outpouring of personal sharing that has emerged in the wake of #MeToo?
And yet, while tangentially related to the swell of #MeToo films that have emerged in the short form these past 2 years, Kate in Oxnard is expresses a point that is subtly different. Utilizing long takes and a roving handheld camera, Tomson and her cinematographer, Allie Schultz, are relentlessly focused on Kate and her perspective, which helps solidify Tomson's case that this is coming-of-age film rather than one of abuse. To share Tomson's words once again:
"I think this film is a cautionary tale about an experience many women can relate to, and I wanted to explore the subtleties of a situation that is not predatory, nor romantic, but could be either and might be both. Most importantly, I think this story is about part of what it means to be a woman in the world, how our sense of trust and security is often threatened, and what that means for who we become."
With Kate in Oxnard Tomson nails one of the most pernicious elements of harassment, which is the second-guessing and self doubt. To use the term du jour, Kate is gaslit by Sean, and despite her instincts screaming out, there is that nagging feeling that maybe the situation is innocent, maybe she's overreacting. But irregardless of the ontological reality to the situation, whether Sean's motivations in his actions are pure or not, Tomson's larger point remains—the mere potential for either scenario to be true irrevocably fractures Kate's innocence, and the new self-awareness of her vulnerability will change Kate and her connection and presentation to the world.

In September 1939, Władysław Szpilman, a Polish-Jewish pianist, is playing live on the radio in Warsaw when the station is bombed during Nazi Germany's invasion of Poland. Hoping for a quick victory, Szpilman rejoices with his family at home when learning that Britain and France have declared war on Germany. But the promised aid does not come. Fighting lasts for just over a month, with both the German and Soviet armies invading Poland at the same time on different fronts. Warsaw becomes part of the Nazi-controlled General Government. Jews are soon prevented from working or owning businesses, and are also made to wear blue Star of David armbands.
By November 1940, Szpilman and his family are forced from their home into the overcrowded Warsaw Ghetto, where conditions only get worse. People starve, the guards are brutal, and starving children are abandoned in the streets. On one occasion, the Szpilmans witness the SS kill an entire family in an apartment across the street during a round-up.
On 16 August 1942, Szpilman and his family are transported to Treblinka extermination camp as part of Operation Reinhard. But a friend in the Jewish Ghetto Police recognizes Władysław at the Umschlagplatz, and separates him from his family. He becomes a slave labourer, and learns of a coming Jewish revolt. He helps the resistance by smuggling weapons into the ghetto, on one occasion narrowly avoiding a suspicious guard. Szpilman eventually manages to escape, and goes into hiding with help from a non-Jewish friend, Andrzej Bogucki, and his wife, Janina.
In April 1943, Szpilman watches from his window as the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, which he aided, unfolds, and then ultimately fails. After a neighbor discovers Szpilman in the flat, he is forced to flee to a second hiding place. The new room has a piano in it, but he is compelled to keep quiet, while beginning to suffer from jaundice.
In August 1944, during the Warsaw Uprising, the Armia Krajowa attacks a German building across the street from Szpilman's hideout. Tank shells hit the apartment, forcing him to flee. Over the course of the following months, Warsaw is destroyed. Szpilman is left alone to search desperately for shelter and supplies among the ruins. He eventually makes his way to a house where he finds a can of pickled cucumbers. While trying to open it, he is discovered by Wehrmacht officer Wilm Hosenfeld who learns that Szpilman is a pianist. He asks Szpilman to play on a grand piano in the house. The decrepit Szpilman manages to play Chopin's "Ballade in G minor". Hosenfeld lets Szpilman hide in the attic of the empty house. From here, he is regularly supplied with food by the German officer.
In January 1945, the Germans are retreating from the Red Army. Hosenfeld meets Szpilman for the final time, promising he will listen to him on Polish Radio after the war. He gives Szpilman his greatcoat to keep warm, and leaves. In Spring 1945, former inmates of a Nazi concentration camp pass a Soviet prisoner-of-war camp holding captured German soldiers and verbally abuse them. Hosenfeld, who is among those captured, overhears an inmate lament over his former career as a violinist. He asks the violinist if he knows Szpilman, which he confirms.

In September 1939, Władysław Szpilman, a Polish-Jewish pianist, is playing live on the radio in Warsaw when the station is bombed during Nazi Germany's invasion of Poland. Hoping for a quick victory, Szpilman rejoices with his family at home when learning that Britain and France have declared war on Germany. But the promised aid does not come. Fighting lasts for just over a month, with both the German and Soviet armies invading Poland at the same time on different fronts. Warsaw becomes part of the Nazi-controlled General Government. Jews are soon prevented from working or owning businesses, and are also made to wear blue Star of David armbands.
By November 1940, Szpilman and his family are forced from their home into the overcrowded Warsaw Ghetto, where conditions only get worse. People starve, the guards are brutal, and starving children are abandoned in the streets. On one occasion, the Szpilmans witness the SS kill an entire family in an apartment across the street during a round-up.
On 16 August 1942, Szpilman and his family are transported to Treblinka extermination camp as part of Operation Reinhard. But a friend in the Jewish Ghetto Police recognizes Władysław at the Umschlagplatz, and separates him from his family. He becomes a slave labourer, and learns of a coming Jewish revolt. He helps the resistance by smuggling weapons into the ghetto, on one occasion narrowly avoiding a suspicious guard. Szpilman eventually manages to escape, and goes into hiding with help from a non-Jewish friend, Andrzej Bogucki, and his wife, Janina.
In April 1943, Szpilman watches from his window as the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, which he aided, unfolds, and then ultimately fails. After a neighbor discovers Szpilman in the flat, he is forced to flee to a second hiding place. The new room has a piano in it, but he is compelled to keep quiet, while beginning to suffer from jaundice.
In August 1944, during the Warsaw Uprising, the Armia Krajowa attacks a German building across the street from Szpilman's hideout. Tank shells hit the apartment, forcing him to flee. Over the course of the following months, Warsaw is destroyed. Szpilman is left alone to search desperately for shelter and supplies among the ruins. He eventually makes his way to a house where he finds a can of pickled cucumbers. While trying to open it, he is discovered by Wehrmacht officer Wilm Hosenfeld who learns that Szpilman is a pianist. He asks Szpilman to play on a grand piano in the house. The decrepit Szpilman manages to play Chopin's "Ballade in G minor". Hosenfeld lets Szpilman hide in the attic of the empty house. From here, he is regularly supplied with food by the German officer.
In January 1945, the Germans are retreating from the Red Army. Hosenfeld meets Szpilman for the final time, promising he will listen to him on Polish Radio after the war. He gives Szpilman his greatcoat to keep warm, and leaves. In Spring 1945, former inmates of a Nazi concentration camp pass a Soviet prisoner-of-war camp holding captured German soldiers and verbally abuse them. Hosenfeld, who is among those captured, overhears an inmate lament over his former career as a violinist. He asks the violinist if he knows Szpilman, which he confirms. Hosenfeld wishes for Szpilman to return the favor and help release him. Sometime later, the violinist is able to bring Szpilman back to the site, but they find it abandoned.
Later, Szpilman works for Polish Radio, and performs Chopin's "Grand Polonaise brillante" to a large and prestigious audience. An epilogue states that Szpilman died at the age of 88 in the year 2000, while Hosenfeld died in Soviet captivity in 1952.

There have been 10 suspicious deaths since 2009 at London, Ontario's Elgin-Middlesex Detention Centre, often just known as EMDC. Some by suicide, others from drug overdose and even brutal murders. EMDC has gained a reputation as one of Canada's most notorious and deadliest jails, so much so that even some correctional officers fear for their lives behind those walls. Habiba Nosheen investigates why so many inmates keep dying inside this institution and why more isn't being done to keep staff and inmates safe. And in a face to face interview with a man who murdered his cellmate, she tries to find out what is going on inside what some people call, the devil's playground.
