Trailer for "To Which We Belong"

Pamela Tanner Boll is an artist, filmmaker, writer and activist. She is the Founder and CEO of Mystic Artists Film Productions, and the Co-Executive Producer of the Academy Award-winning documentary, “Born into Brothels.”

“To Which We Belong” is a documentary that highlights farmers and ranchers—including in Nebraska—leaving behind conventional practices that are no longer profitable or sustainable. They are improving the health of soil and sea to save their livelihoods and the planet. Years of industrialized agriculture have been a major contributor to climate change.

The film follows a new generation of farmers and ranchers who seek to rebuild their businesses and their planet by embracing the interconnectedness of living things. “To Which We Belong” tells the stories of nine farms and ranches going against the grain to bravely leave behind practices that are no longer profitable or sustainable.

“To Which We Belong” is not rated and is showing through April 14.

Trailer for "Great Freedom"

“Great Freedom,” showing at the Ross on April 8, draws on past injustices to present a beautifully crafted tribute to the persistence of the human spirit. The production sets in Germany after WWII. Hans (Franz Rogowski) has been found guilty of something the government deems a crime: he is gay. Under the 19th-century German penal code known as Paragraph 175, homosexuality is grounds for imprisonment, and Hans–over the course of multiple decades–is spied on and repeatedly jailed solely for his sexuality. As he returns to prison, again and again, Hans develops an ever-closer relationship with his cellmate Viktor (Georg Friedrich), a convicted murderer serving a life sentence. As their charged rapport blossoms over time into something far more tender, the film explores love and lost time.

Directed by Sebastian Meise, “Great Freedom” is not rated. It shows through April 21.
