Pepsi, Where's My Jet?
The year was 1996, and the cola wars were raging. Despite Pepsi’s celeb-soaked advertisements, Coke still held the bigger market share, so the second-place brand decided to roll out their biggest campaign ever.
Called “Pepsi Stuff,” it featured a soon-to-be infamous commercial implying that if you bought enough of their products, you could use “Pepsi Points” to purchase sunglasses, leather jackets, and maybe a Harrier jet. Pepsi execs assumed the astronomical “price” of the military plane was set high enough to indicate it was a joke, but college student John Leonard saw it as a challenge, and decided to call their bluff.
Enlisting the help – and funding – of mountaineering buddy Todd Hoffman, John hashed out a plan to score the grandest prize of all – even if it never existed in the first place.
I Am Vanessa Guillen
When a young Mexican-American soldier vanishes from a U.S. Army base, her family leads an international movement to find her and expose ongoing corruption within the military ranks. Vanessa Guillen always dreamed of joining the Army, but after reporting being sexually harassed at Fort Hood in Texas, she disappeared.
After a two-month search, her remains were found in a nearby rural area, sparking rage at Army officials – and a fight for justice. The film follows Vanessa’s sisters as they carry her name from protests in the streets to the halls of power in Washington, D.C., and offers a behind-the-scenes look at their tenacious pursuit to change a deeply rooted, controversial military justice system.
