- In the future, Joseph enters a bookshop searching for an Italian writer. While he searches for the name "Firenze" in the database, he recounts the story of a woman he had met 30 years ago. Lisbon, 2007: Joseph is a tormented American seminarian, a member of Opus Dei, who has come to Lisbon to help organize an exhibition of the Franciscan Order in Lisbon's Cathedral. The exhibition brings to Portugal a legendary mirror, "The Mirror of St. Francis of Assisi", that was said to have allowed St Francis to see the next morning. On the day of his departure, Joseph, at the train station, literally bumps into Giulia, a beautiful and irreverent Italian writer with whom he establishes an immediate chemistry. Giulia tells Joseph she came to Lisbon to try to find a mysterious Portuguese singer with whom her father had a relationship in Lisborn before he left to fight for the Portuguese in their colonial war. In the final letters this woman had sent to Giulia's father, her passion and feeling of abandonment seemed to be driving her to insanity. She was obviously unaware that an accident of war left her loving soldier with no memories of his past and unable to respond. Giulia came to Lisbon to bring the tragic news of her father's death and to return her the letters... but the singer seems to have disappeared. Joseph, fascinated by her story, suggests that he and Giulia take advantage of the 12-hour delay of their trains, caused by the Pope's visit to Portugal, to try to find the lost singer. The two depart on a journey around Lisbon, and discover a mystical city where they experience an adventure of mutual discovery, of attraction, of secrets and revelations and of intimacy and desire. Seemingly, the loneliest boy in the world has met the saddest girl and they can only fail to share a future together, yet, both with a tragic past, the new revelations and the old secrets draw them even closer. Then Giulia promises Joseph: "If one day you find my book, you'll find me as well."

- Mexican amber is found exclusively in the Simojovel region, State of Chiapas, in the South of Mexico. It's hand extracted by indigenous men and children with hammers and chisels in tunnels dug into the mountainside. This rare and ancient amber can reach high prices in the international market, especially when animals or plants are found trapped inside. The miners own their own mines, or rent from other indigenous for a small monthly rate; they keep everything they find, but they cannot reach the top buyers directly. They can only get to resellers, traders, and jewellers who buy it from them at the lowest prices and make up to as much as 1000% profit when working it and selling to tourists and collectors. Now, there are new players in town: Chinese and US buyers are coming directly to the mines and paying top dollar. The old club of national jewellers complain of injustice and imbalance.

She discusses in a very honest, open and articulate manner here in the film's intimate setting (her Toronto hotel room to be precise) just what led her down this tragic path that she currently finds herself in, and how she ultimately wants nothing more than to reach full sobriety someday so as to not only return to some semblance of a normal life as a mother, daughter and friend but to hopefully educate and help others, specifically women, who have found themselves in a similar situation as hers.

The filmmakers stop in Bentonville, Arkansas - home to Wal-Mart - to find out. Independent America: The Two Lane Search for Mom & Pop is a film that encourages people to think hard about where they spend their money. And it offers a rare, and comprehensive view of a country at loggerheads with the free market economy it has mastered.
