Win $100K for a 3-5 Minute Documentary on "Tolerance"

Current TV, a digital cable network started by Al Gore in August 2005, is looking for 3-5 minute non-fiction videos that pose the question: What does tolerance (or intolerance) mean to you? What are your feelings on racism? Sexism? Agism? Genocide? Homophobia? Religion?

The prize is $100K--yes, that's $100,000-- and the deadline is October 2nd. An additional $15K will be donated to a charity that fights for the winner's chosen cause. Two runners-up will receive $10K a piece. The films will be judged by accomplished industry professionals such as Edward Norton, Paul Haggis, and M. Night Shyalmalan. The winning films will premiere at a gala event attended by agents and managers. For more information and rules, go to
