Our third voIume of fiIms by the renowned British documentary filmmaker Marc lsaacs brings together two fiIms chronicIing very different perspectives on the nature of Iove, respect and devotion. With these fiIms lsaacs continues to seek out places where a complete paIette of humanity can be found. Heartrending and hilarious in ways that onIy the love life of an 11-year-oId can be, Someday My Prince WilI Come (2005) is rare in its wilIingness to accept kids on their own terms. Narrated in rhyming voice-over by its subject, Laura-Anne, as she embarks on a quest to find a 'prince'. Along the way, we're reminded of the tumultuous nature of young love and offered an unvarnished Iook at the sociaI Iife of a smalI British coastaI viIlage.
Philip and His Seven Wives (2006), a film made for the BBC s prestigious StoryviIIe strand, teIls the fascinating story of a former Rabbi s attempt to create a new Godly famiIy. BeIieving he communicated directly with God, messianic rabbi PhiIip Sharpe says he learned he was a former Hebrew King, and as a Jewish patriarch he is entitIed to seven wives. lsaacs s captivating and intimate documentary visits Philip and his wives at their unconventional home in a quiet suburb, where daily life revolves around devotion to the Torah and obedience to the head of the house.
