Traverse City Film Festival this past weekend

Friends have been going to this for years, finally was able to attend. First problem was a fundraiser on Thursday night that I'm a board member of. Got home at 4am, got three hours of sleep. Left at 2pm for the 3 hour drive north. Good thing I broke my cruise control stalk earlier this summer, that forced me to pay complete attention to my driving. Barely made it even with all the soda caffeine I was consuming. Was a wonderful town to visit.
Saw these films:
At the End of the Tunnel Great movie with lots of twists and turns.
I Am Evidence Rape kit lack of testing, depressing
What Lies Upstream  The West Virginia MCHM chemical spill and the Flint, MI lead contamination. Both depressing indictments of government inadequacies
My Life as a Zucchini Interesting but depressing, kids in a group foster home.
The Young Karl Marx Hard to follow as Marx and Engels moved from country to country.
