dvd_jacket_234The Media Education Foundation is one of my favorite organizations: they produce and distribute “documentary films and other educational resources to inspire critical reflection on the social, political, and cultural impact of American mass media.”

Generation M, a documentary about misogyny in media and culture, touches a lot of my film’s themes.

Check out the film’s trailer on the official Generation M page at MEF. Highly highly recommended.
