“THE JOURNEY” HONORED AS ONE OF THE TOP 10 MOST
MEMORABLE FILMS IN SXSW’S 10-YEAR HISTORY

Award-winning film “The Journey,” honored by the 2003 South by Southwest Film Conference and
Festival (SXSW) as one of the  Top 10 Most Memorable Films in its 10-year history, will embark on
a 30-city, 41-stop college tour presented by Sprite in April,  Journey Productions, Inc. announced at SXSW.
 

"A journey is a person in itself; no two are alike,
and all plans, safeguards, policing, and coercion
are fruitless. We find after years of struggle that
we do not take a trip; a trip takes us."

-John Steinbeck

The film, which premiered at SXSW in 2001, follows the adventures of four young people who pile into a
bus to search for life’s wisdom and meaning. This team of eager travelers meandered across the country,
from Atlanta, Ga., to Seattle, Wash., shot 500 hours of footage and interviewed more than 200 people in
search of wisdom and inspiration from the famous and not so famous

Audience Award Documentary Feature:
  'Girlhood'

Academy Award-Nominated and Emmy Award Winning Filmmaker, Liz Garbus, brought
new film, GIRLHOOD, to SxSW, for US Premiere in Documentary Competition.

GIRLHOOD tells two coming-of-age stories from the real America: Shanae, ten years old
when she was gang-raped by five boys, responded by drinking and drugging, and then
graduated to murder, with the stabbing death of a friend, at age 11.  Megan, whose mother
abandoned her to turn tricks to support her ravaging heroin addiction, ran away from ten
different foster homes before being arrested for attacking another foster child with a box
cutter.  Both girls ended up in the Waxter Juvenile Facility, home to Maryland's most
violent juvenile offenders. It is here that their journeys really begin.



Oscar ®-nominated and Emmy Award-winning producer Amy Sommer (WACO: THE
RULES OF ENGAGEMENT) and Oscar ®-nominated writer/director/producer Nonny
de la Peà (DEATH ON THE JOB) will regionally premiere their latest investigative
documentary,
dd
did not win an award but we think the subject 
very interesting and wanted to give meniton.

Mama/M.A.M.A. is a groundbreaking film that examines Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy, a bizarre form of sup-
posed child abuse in which a mother pretends her child is
ill - or actually makes her child sick- in order to get the sympathy and praise of the medical community. 

The film scrutinizes the scientific research surrounding the allegation and, in so doing, questions the very diagnosis 
itself. Our investigation found that the illnesses supposedly caused by over a hundred "Munchausen Mothers" were in
fact the side effects of potentially toxic drugs -- drugs that 
were never approved for pediatric use. Also, by conducting 
an experiment with an astonishing result, we demonstrate
that the use of laboratory tests as the sole evidence with 
which to convict a mother needs to be reevaluated. Finally, 
the film traces the origins of the diagnosis and shows how 
no one has questioned the dubious science that  has led 
to twenty-five years of tearing mothers and their babies 
apart.
