纪录片“Miss Representation”纪录了一大批令人钦佩的、有影响力的女性的见解。它强调媒体对女性狭隘的、常带有轻蔑性的表述,不仅使得越来越多的年轻女孩陷入危机,如饮食失调症、自残、忧郁症等,还对另一个问题负有更大责任,即在美国所有有权力和影响力的职位中,女性的代表性极其不足。该电影还特别提到媒体向年轻女孩传达的令人失望的观念:一位女性的价值取决于她的青春、美貌和性感,不取决于她想当领导的意图或她的领导能力。

RACE TO NOWHERE is a close-up look at the pressures on today's students, offering an intimate view of lives packed with activities, leaving little room for down-time or family time. Parents today are expected to raise high-achieving children, who are good at everything: academics, sports, the arts, community-service. The film tackles the tragic side of our often achievement-obsessed culture, with interviews that explore the hidden world of over-burdened schedules, student suicide, academic cheating, young people who have checked out. RACE TO NOWHERE asks the question: Are the young people of today prepared to step fully and productively into their future? We hear from students who feel they are being pushed to the brink, educators who worry students aren't learning anything substantive, and college professors and business leaders, concerned their incoming employees lack the skills needed to succeed in the business world: passion, creativity, and internal motivation.
