Occupational HazardsPG. Mature Theme
(Australia-7:10 Comedy, Jason Cermak – Director) An Australian PR firm has to deliver a pitch to a terrorist syndicate. The issue; Terrorism is suffering an image crisis in Australia. Could re-branding be the answer?

A PR firm is meeting up with a terrorist syndicate to propose a pitch concerning an image crisis. With much contemplation, they consider re-branding. You’ll be bursting with laughter in your seats while you watch the PR firm and terrorists negotiate.

With all the other films in this category being so terrible, this was a nice refreshing change. I found it to be incredibly witty. I thought they did an excellent job of being funny without being racist and intolerant. I was half expecting it to be offensive to certain races, but they had people from a variety or races eliminating that idea. Occupation Hazards was consistently funny all the way through.

If you’re in need of a laugh, I highly recommend Occupational Hazards.

kindah_picture.jpgMade In Where?

By: Kindah Mardam Bey (Ontario Correspondent - Canada)

Recently, the question of where exactly my clothing is made has come to my attention. That little equal sign symbol on the back of Coldplay lead singer Chris Martin's hand represents Fair Trade. Which ultimately means that wealthier countries do not bleed third world countries for cheap labour. Seriously, it's a big problem, and while my brief encounter with awareness hit me in the early 1990s with Nike, and then with the outrageous brush with humiliation Kathy Lee Gifford was subjected to (wasn't everyone else doing the same as KLG?), I had little experience with the subject matter. Then the idea of Fair Trade slid slowly into my psyche, and when your High School school-bag toting cousin is more savvy on the subject then you, it's time to strip off and read the damn labels...Read More
