RED HEAVEN Director Katherine Gorringe Joins Tom Needham on THE SOUNDS OF FILM

A very timely film, RED HEAVEN explores what humans need to be happy, healthy, and sane. A crew of six non-astronauts from all over the world, chosen for their ability to survive isolation, embark on a one year mission in the Mars simulation station in a 1000 square foot dome on the red, rocky slope of a Hawaiian volcano in order to provide much-needed research for the future of space exploration. Survive, experiment, exercise, collect data, file surveys… repeat. How does their mood and mental health change over time in this prescient exploration of self-imposed quarantine?

Legendary Singer/Songwriter Eric Andersen and Award Winning Director Julia Barnes of BRIGHT GREEN LIES joins Tom Needham on SOUNDS OF FILM

Andersen and Needham’s conversation focuses on THE SONGPOET, a new documentary about Andersen’s life and career.

THE SONGPOET dives deep into conflicts of career, ego, relationships and the unrelenting pursuit of one’s purpose as it explores what it takes to keep moving forward. This is the sometimes tragic, but surprisingly uplifting story of Eric Andersen, “The Songpoet."

Julia Barnes'‘Bright Green Lies’ investigates the change in focus of the mainstream environmental movement, from its original concern with protecting nature, to its current obsession with powering an unsustainable way of life. The film exposes the lies and fantastical thinking behind the notion that solar, wind, hydro, biomass, or green consumerism will save us from climate change. Tackling the most pressing issues of our time will require us to look beyond the mainstream technological solutions and ask deeper questions about what needs to change.
