More than 25,000 librarians, educators, authors, publishers, literacy experts, illustrators, and leading suppliers to the market will be gathered at the Conference, and among them will be independent film distributor Passion River.

Passion River will bringing films with an array of subjects that include Multicultural Studies, Women's Studies, Medical Studies and Advances, Religious and Spiritual studies, Environmentalism, Aging, Drug Addiction, Gay/Lesbian/Transgender, etc.

Many of the highlighted films have received awards and nominations, among them 2010 Academy Award Winner "Music By Prudence," which documents the life of a Zimbabwe woman born with arthrogryposis and a hauntingly beautiful voice, which lands her a scholarship and teaching position in a country where employment is rare. Other featured titles include "Who Does She Think She Is?" directed by Academy Award winner Pamela Tanner Boll (Born into Brothels), which tells similarly inspiring stories about five women and their refusal to give up their artistic passions to the demands of motherhood.

On the animation front, Passion River will be presenting "Idiots And Angels", a dark comedy hand-drawn by Oscar nominee Bill Plympton, telling the story of a morally bankrupt man who wakes up with wings that force him to do good deeds.

Passion River is proud to present their entire 300 film catalog at ALA, and will be giving discounts throughout their exhibitions.
