A French woman, Claudia, shares her illness and suffering with Indo Pino, a shaman. However, in spite of the trust that Claudia has in Indo Pino and without Claudia's actual body being present, will she be able to heal her from so far away?

The film traces the doctrine’s beginnings in the radical theories of Milton Friedman at the University of Chicago, and its subsequent implementation over the past forty years in countries and situations as disparate as Pinochet’s Chile, Yeltsin’s Russia, Thatcher’s Britain, and most recently the neo-con invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq. It exposes the darker side of Friedman’s ideology, which was so unpopular that it could only be implemented through the use of torture and repression. Based on the book by Naomi Klein.

The Sixth Section is a groundbreaking documentary that blends digital animation, home video, cinema verité, and interview footage to depict the transnational organizing of a community of Mexican immigrants in New York. The men profiled in the film form an organization called “Grupo Unión”, which is devoted to raising money in the United States to rebuild the Mexican town that they've left behind. Grupo Unión is one of at least a thousand “hometown associations” formed by Mexican immigrants in the United States, and they are beginning to have a major impact in the politics and economics of both the U.S. and Mexico.
