Poly Styrene : I Am a Cliche' (2021)

 

Released February 22, 2022, in the US.
Filmed in England.
The story: After her untimely death in early April of 2011, her daughter, Celeste Bell, was in charge of going through all of the things that flowed through her mother's life.
Marianne Joan Elliott Said, better known to the world as Poly Styrene, the trailblazing young Scottish/Irish/Somali woman from Britain who wrote songs for and fronted the punk rock band X Ray Spex,  was a force to be reckoned with.
Quite the sensitive soul, Poly was a fashion victim with her own sense of style who, at a young age, wrote songs that had much meaning for her.
Celeste, Poly's only child, was not ready to be the caretaker of her mother's extremely large legacy, mostly because it was too painful to look back at without her mother here.
So, 5 years after her passing, Celeste finally brought herself to explore all the things that were her mother's life.
Through journal entries, photographs, videos, interviews, art, poetry, and performances, as well as words from many people who knew and loved Poly, Celeste takes us along with her through her mother's profound journey.

Polytechnique (2009)



Released February 6th in the US.
Filmed in Canada.
Based on truths.
The story: In 1989, Marc Lepine was an extremely tormented 25-year-old man.
After being rejected for entry into the Canadian Forces, he began multiple different college studies from 1982 until 1988.
None of which interested him, nor did he believe he was good at any of them.
He applied for entry into the engineering school Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal in Canada twice, but he wasn't accepted due to not having the correct training.
At this point in Lepine's life, there was one thing he certainly believed.
He hated women, whom he considered feminists, because the way he seen things,  the government was easy on them and gave them so-called handouts when men always had to work much harder for the same result.
This was a long time coming for Lepine.
Lepine blamed almost all that had gone wrong in the last 7 years of his life on feminists, and now he was at the end of his rope over it.
On the afternoon of December 6, 1989, Lepine entered Ecole Polytechnique and accomplished the unthinkable...

Percy vs. Goliath (2020)



Released April 30, 2021 in the US.
Filmed in Canada and India.
Based on truths.
The story: Saskatchewan, Canada, 1998.
Percy Scheimser is a third-generation canola farmer.
Humble, honest, and seventy, he fancies himself to be a "seed saver", as he has been collecting seeds from his crops for many years.
After a great harvest and an equally great payoff, Percy gets a phone call.
He is informed that he owes the big agricultural biotechnology company Monsanto money, due to his crops being found with traces of their herbicide Roundup, which brands his canola crops GMO, sure property of Monsanto.
This makes no sense to Percy, he has been collecting seeds from his crops his whole life and he has never purchased any of Monsanto's seeds.
After Monsanto is allowed to test his canola and infact it turns up GMO-modified, it becomes quite clear to Monsanto that Percy owes them money.
But Percy was unaware that any of his crops had been modified and with that, he believes he must fight Monsanto for his right to plant his seeds on his land, without any further financial hassles from the company.

Pamela : A Love Story (2023)



Made for Netflix, airing on instant streaming January 31st in the US.
The story: Pamela Anderson has been out of the spotlight for quite some time now.
She has taken to her childhood home in Canada to live out the rest of her life in peace and out of the spotlight.
But Pamela didn't mind living the Hollywood dream while she was living it.
It wasn't until the scandal of her and then-husband Tommy Lee's sex tape exploited them that things got bad for her.
Pamela tells of her rise to fame through her personal diaries, home videos, and tv spot footage, all of which she has collected through the years.
She tells of her lucky stardom in modeling and her immediate after-Playboy playmate position.
All of the people she met, dated, married, and worked with as well as never understanding how people only found her fascinating due to her looks and body.
Pamela had high hopes that her modeling would help her get into movies.
Baywatch helped but the one movie she did star in did not, making her come off as not a serious actress.
When the unauthorized Hulu mini-series 'Pam & Tommy' premiered, it brought up all the hurt that the scandal caused her all over again.
She decided to set the record of her life straight, along with the help of her beloved parents and two, very close sons.
This is her story.
