This May, allow us to reintroduce Doc World, our award-winning international documentary series featuring compelling characters and unfiltered storytelling that reveal how the human experience is shared no matter where we’re from. The new season takes viewers from Toronto to Malawi, Budapest and Tokyo, to explore universal themes that keep us all connected. Also this month, Stories from the Stage celebrates women taking charge of their own destiny, the power of love in all its forms, and what we can learn about ourselves through a journey abroad in four new episodes, and streaming Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander films encompass the energy and depth of the diaspora.
And Still I Sing
Afghan pop star Aryana Sayeed mentors two young women competing on Afghan Star, until their lives are upended when the Taliban returns. As women’s rights collapse, they must escape Kabul and find safety in exile.
Matter of Mind: My Alzheimer's
Matter of Mind: My Alzheimer’s is an intimate portrayal of three families confronting the unique challenges of Alzheimer’s and how this progressive neurodegenerative disease transforms roles and relationships. Whether it's a partner caring for a loved one or an adult child shifting into being their parent's caregiver, these stories show how families evolve when a loved one is diagnosed.
Women in Action
Meaningful action can change everything. Suna reimagines life for her neurodivergent daughter, growing a world of flowers and belonging; Ann Marie uncovers the truth behind her family’s past and transforms it into a life of purpose; and Holly opens her home to three young sisters - and discovers unexpected joy.
