Based on research done by The Trevor Project, “LGBTQ+ youth are more than four times as likely to attempt suicide than their peers.” The documentary will give viewers a diverse understanding of LGBTQ+ experiences in the South while also recognizing the vital role that affirming allies play in promoting positive mental health and suicide prevention amongst individuals who identify within the LGBTQ+ community. The hope is to promote collective growth in our communal understanding of the unique stories, adversities, and resiliency of LGBTQ+ people in the South.
This documentary is presented by The Eastern Carolina Injury Prevention Program at ECU Health Medical Center in partnership with Mission Hospital and LA FLECHA FILM CO.

“The George Washington of Video Art” … “Cultural Terrorist” … “Citizen Zero of the Electronic Superhighway”… But who really was Nam June Paik, pillar of the American avant-garde in the 20th century and arguably the most famous Korean artist in modern history? Director Amanda Kim tells, for the first time, the story of Paik’s meteoric rise in the New York art scene and his Nostradamus-like visions of a future in which “everybody will have his own TV channel.” Thanks to social media, Paik’s future is now our present, and NAM JUNE PAIK: MOON IS THE OLDEST TV shows us how we got here.
NAM JUNE PAIK: MOON IS THE OLDEST TV (Amanda Kim, 2023, 109 minutes, English, Color, Not Rated). A Dogwoof production. Presented by Greenwich Entertainment, in association with American Masters Pictures/PBS. Produced by Jennifer Stockman, David Koh, Amanda Kim, Amy Hobby, and Jesse Wann.
