We learn about the importance of Native languages and cultures in Alaska from a Yup'ik dog musher and a Tlingit carver of wood and metal. The film then takes us to a school in Wisconsin where we hear the story of a seventh grade girl who was recently punished for speaking a few words of the Menominee language. We learn more about the fight against language loss through visiting a Euchee (Yuchi) immersion school in Oklahoma where only four fluent elder speakers remain. We also meet National Geographic Fellow and Swarthmore College linguistics professor K. David Harrison who introduces us to his innovative online talking dictionaries project for Indigenous languages. Finally, we travel to Montana where an inventive Arapaho professor has developed an effective method to quickly save these disappearing national treasures.

Pretty Brutal follows self-titled girl skaters Pieces of Hate, Kid Vile and Naki Kronik into the full-contact world of the Pirate City Rollers. Early adopters of the game, these unexpected sports women embark on a debut competitive season. Their challenge; work together as sisters in a democratic community, then switch to fierce adversaries come game day. Skaters navigate uncertain borders between friendship, skate-personas and a license to hit each another. Between slams to the concrete, a gritty insider perspective on finding safety in unusual places is unearthed, yet each player searches for something different. Tension mounts under competition, desires spill onto the rink and the fate of their new found sanctuary hinges on egos and unspoken trust. A bittersweet and intimate story of ambition, obsession and trying to connect, Pretty Brutal captures a microcosm of the fastest growing female sport of the 21st century. Gender stereotypes and ideas about identity are playfully broached, prompting questions on what it means to be aggressive as a woman.

Living on the uninhabited coasts off New Zealand is the 200 million year old tuatara. Schoolboy Kyn Franks is to visit the Poor Knights islands with a group of zoologists to study the tuatara. The tuatara first caught world interest in 1867 when it was discovered that it was not a lizard but belonged to a time when reptiles covered the earth. The Tuatara is thought to have moved across land from the north by an early land connection before New Zealand became isolated 60 million years ago. Eventually New Zealand was separated by deep waters and no large carnivorous animals ever occupied the land. This made it possible for the tuatara to survive - as a living fossil! Within half an hour of arriving on the island, Kyn discovers a Gecko, and a large number of other interesting insects and bugs, including a giant weta. Everything possible is being done by the Wildlife Department to prevent the introduction of rats or carnivorous mammals likely to upset the delicate balance of nature on the islands, where it is still possible to discover new species. Eventually Kyn comes across the tuatara basking on a rock. Produced as part of the New Zealand Children's Film Series. With Dr. A.W.B. Powell as zoology consultant.
