I, PEDOPHILE

By Matthew Campea

Pedophiles have long been the most demonized people in society. New research is showing that understanding the condition is the first step in lowering instances of child sexual abuse. Pedophilia expert Dr. James Cantor's ground-breaking and controversial hypothesis that pedophilia is a developmental disorder in the brain resulting in sexual attraction to children, attempts to demystify the cause of pedophilia.

Some of the characters appear as themselves, but due to the stigma and possible legal repercussions of coming out as a pedophile, the film uses dramatic re-creations to tell their stories, and actors speak the words of those who fear to appear on camera.

AUTISM: A FAMILY'S JOURNEY

By Michael Terrill

How would you feel if your two-year-old child was diagnosed as autistic and mentally retarded? That he would go into his room and never come out, and would be institutionalized by age 17?

This was the grim life sentence handed down to Lori and Jim Cairns regarding their son, JR. The diagnosis was made in 1996-when little was known about autism, governments offered few helpful resources, and hope for recovery was disregarded as a myth, and urban legend.

Today many people still dismiss hope of recovery from autism. And yet it can happen. JR is living proof.

Now, for the first time ever, the Cairns family and JR's therapists unite to celebrate his recovery and share their story of hope.

OCD AND ME

Most people have heard of OCD but what exactly is Obsessive Compulsive Disorder? It presents itself in many unusual guises. People are often surprised to learn that OCD goes far beyond the common perception of excessive hand washing or the repetitive checking of light switches.

OCD is an extreme anxiety-related condition where a person experiences frequent, intrusive and unwelcome obsessive thoughts, often followed by repetitive compulsions, impulses or urges.

In an attempt to get an understanding of disturbing mental illness we spend time with some people who have agreed to come forward and talk about their OCD. We also feature experts in the field while spending time in St Patrick's Hospital in Dublin and an anxiety support groups in Sligo town.

OCD is the third most common concern reported to St Patrick's mental-health support services and The World Health Organisation lists it as one of the 10 most debilitating illnesses on the planet. OCD and Me gives us a greater understanding of this secretive and often misunderstood condition.

With Stephen Feldman, JD, PhD

A pragmatic, informative and entertaining video offering solutions to the common ethical dilemmas that mental health practitioners face. This video is ideal for classrooms, clinical trainings, and licensed clinicians completing their CE requirement.

Specifically, these four lively discussions between a psychologist, lawyer and journalist cover such murky matters as: bartering, boundaries, touch, self-disclosure, gifts, multiple-member clients such as couples and families, the initiation of treatment, breaches in confidentiality, ending treatment, electronic records, HIPAA, client debt, client suicide and a clinician's death. Presented by Stephen Feldman, an expert in mental health law, this video lays out simple changes all clinicians can make to protect themselves and their practice. This is an invaluable resource that will dispel doubts and fears, enabling therapists to practice more confidently.

    MOTHER'S COURAGE, A: TALKING BACK TO AUTISM

    Director: Fridrik Thor Fridriksson

    Narrated by Kate Winslet, this inspiring film follows one woman's quest to unlock her autistic son's mind. Margret, whose ten-year-old son Keli is severely autistic, has tried a number of treatments to help her son.

    Consumed by an unquenchable thirst for knowledge about this mysterious and complex condition, she travels from her home in Iceland to the United States and Europe, meeting with top autism experts and advocates. She also connects with several other families touched by autism, whose struggles echo her own: the endless doctor visits and experiments with different treatments, the complication of doing everyday tasks, and the inability to communicate - perhaps the most painful and frustrating aspect of autism.

    But as she comes across innovative new therapies with the potential to break down the walls of autism, Margret finds hope that her son may be able to express himself on a level she never thought possible.
