This one-hour documentary takes viewers inside the New York City Fire Department to illuminate the lives of the often “strong and silent” heroes who put themselves at risk to protect residents and serve the city. Through behind-the-scenes footage and interviews conducted by award-winning actor Steve Buscemi – a former firefighter with Engine Company 55 in downtown Manhattan – the film touches on the personal journeys of several current and former firefighters while revisiting some of the FDNY’s milestones, including the integration of women and people of color, the “War Years” of the ‘60s and ‘70s, the 1966 fire at Wonder Drug (a drugstore in which 12 firefighters died), the arsonist-ignited Happy Land Social Club fire of 1990 (87 victims), and the tragedy of 9/11 and its long-lasting impact on the FDNY. The film features candid photos, rare video footage from the last five decades, Buscemi’s own pictures and videos from 9/11, and interviews with a number of firefighters, including members of #55 and former FDNY Commissioner Salvatore Cassano. A Good Job is a genuine, raw and emotional look at the sacrifices firefighters make, the challenges they face, and reveals why the FDNY family truly lasts forever.

From 1971-73, Richard Nixon secretly recorded his private conversations in the White House. When the existence of the tapes was exposed during the Watergate scandal, Nixon refused to allow their release, explaining they contained “blunt and candid remarks on many different subjects” that could sully the presidency forever. Only certain conversations pertaining to Watergate ended up being heard at the time, but after Nixon’s death in 1994, the government began releasing the tapes. In 2010, hundreds more hours of recordings were released by the Nixon Library. Based on the annotated transcripts of scholars who are studying the tapes at the Miller Center at the University of Virginia, Nixon By Nixon: In His Own Words chronicles Nixon’s conversations about historic events including the war in Vietnam, the Pentagon Papers leak, his Supreme Court appointments, and more. The tapes expose many of the “blunt and candid” statements made by the President about women, people of color, Jews, and – perhaps his favorite target – the media. In addition to extensive tape excerpts, the film includes original press reports and Nixon’s reflections a decade after he left office.

Filmed in Chattanooga, TN, Paycheck to Paycheck: The Life and Times of Katrina Gilbert is a personal journey that follows a year in the life of Katrina Gilbert, a 30-year-old woman earning just above the minimum wage as a certified nursing assistant. Katrina never expected to be a single mother of three young children, living paycheck to paycheck and barely scraping by. But after leaving her husband Jeremy – whose addiction to painkillers destroyed their marriage and gutted their finances – Katrina finds herself living in a trailer and providing sole support to her children: Brooklynn, Lydia and Trent. Overworked, underpaid and uninsured, Katrina’s saving graces are a budding relationship with Chris, a single father facing similar circumstances, and the Chambliss Center, a subsidized day-care center that provides affordable daycare. A microcosm of the ordeal faced by some 70 million women and children in the U.S. today, Paycheck to Paycheck is executive produced by Maria Shriver, and is a component of the recently released, multi-platform project, The Shriver Report: A Woman’s Nation Pushes Back from the Brink.
