In Istanbul we meet daring individuals forging a path in a country that's beginning to restrict the rights of women. New censorship laws have passed, which further limits the freedoms for filmmakers. After surviving bombings, a coup, and the Gezi Park protests, our filmmakers choose to stay in their country to tell stories that represent their lives as Turkish women in the twenty-first century.

In Bucharest we visit Tedy Necula, the first disabled filmmaker in Romania. At age 12, Tedy fell in love with movies when cast as the lead actor in the film, “Noro.” By age 16, Tedy created his own commercial production company, which he still heads, filming inspirational stories. We visit film studios, quirky museums, universities, and share in Tedy’s love of wine as we celebrate his birthday.

We travel towards the Arctic Circle during the Winter Solstice to experience the Northern Lights and quirky Christmas antics. Our entrepreneurial filmmaker, Eythor, lives in Flateyri, a small town in the Westfjords, where he owns and operates the oldest bookstore in Iceland, passed down from his great-grandfather. In Iceland, democracy thrives and storytelling is cherished as an age-old tradition.
