Freida’s latst feature documentary movie ANITA – Speaking Truth to Power, about the life and times of Anita Hill, was released to critical acclaim by Samuel Goldwyn Films after its Sundance Festival premiere. ANITA inspired the HBO movie CONFIRMATION and starred Kerry Washington as Anita Hill.

Amputee vet Charlie Linville and the team summited Everest on their 3rd attempt, a first for a team of amputee vets to climb the 7 Summits. 2018 release date.

Freida’s films center on stories with a strong character-driven dramatic arc set against a back drop of history, politics, art, and creativity and include: Return With Honor, the story of American fighter pilots surviving as POWs in Hanoi, a presentation of Tom Hanks and Playtone; Wrestling With Angels: Playwright Tony Kushner, the feature documentary Sing China! filmed in China during the Beijing Olympics and featuring the world-renowned LA Children’s Chorus; and Lt. Watada, short-listed for the Oscars, about the first military officer to refuse to deploy to Iraq and to speak out about the war’s illegality.
