The early story of Jackson Pollock’s niece, Brooklyn-born Rena “Rusty” Glickman, the only person of the Jewish Faith to receive Japan’s highest civilian honor — The Emperor’s Order of the Rising Sun.
When at age 12 Rusty learned about the Holocaust, she decided THAT was not going to happen to her, that she would be better and stronger than THEM — and
that she would help bring righteousness (tsedakah צדקה) to this world.
She didn’t know how to serve Life with what is right and just until she found judo (the gentle way), a sport at which she excelled, but from which women were barred.
In 1959, and then a single mother, Rusty was asked to compete in the New York State Judo Championships — but had to do so while disguised as a man!
Rusty beat the reigning State Champion —but as she stood on the podium having received her gold medal, THEY asked if she was a girl.
When she acknowledged that she was, the organizers took back the medal!
Rusty vowed to change how women were treated, was a pioneer for women’s rights, and got women’s judo accepted as an Olympic event.
Her ashes are interred in Israel and Japan in the tomb of the Great Samurai Kanokogi.

He is a great artist, a painter many years ahead of his time—an old soul in a young man’s body. She is a smart and courageous young woman with a dream of dancing on Broadway. Just as they have the American Dream within their grasp, circumstances beyond their control thrust the two lovers into a war that changed the course of history—the Finnish-Russian Winter War of 1939-40. A staunch pacifist, he must fight for the land he had scorned, forcing him to confront deep-seated, conflicting emotions, while she, penniless and stranded in New York, has to dance in a burlesque house on Lower Broadway, until— Fate once again intervenes…

Norway, 996 AD. When Thorall, the young master of the ship the Falcon returns with his Arab friend and navigator Ibrahim from a trip to the Mediterranean, they find that the priest Thangbrand has convinced King Olaf to embrace Christianity and to give his people the choice of Christianity or losing their heads.
Highly popular, Thorall and Ibrahim receive a warm welcome from all — except for Olaf and the Jewish merchant, Reas, whose daughter Lea is in love with Thorall.
To prevent losing his head and to protect Lea, Thorall agrees to take Thangbrand to Greenland where Leif Erikson awaits to leave for lands rumored to exist out west.
Lea has hidden aboard the Falcon and is not discovered until the ship is well out into the North Atlantic — making it too late to bring her back to Norway.
Adventures and hardships during the journey bring them to Greenland too late — Erikson has already left.
Having given King Olaf his word that he would bring Thangbrand to Leif, Thorall sets out to find Leif out west.
A winter storm forces the Falcon aground in L’Anse Aux Meadows, Newfoundland –where the natives, the Beothuk, gave them a harsh welcome, and where Lea gave birth to the first European child in North America.
The historian and anthropologist Helge Ingstad found their remains in 1961.

What Hollywood studio analysts say about the screenplay…
A US soldier stationed overseas has a relationship with a local woman whom he abandons when she becomes pregnant with their child, a son. As the boy grows up, hurt by his father’s continued rejection, he takes up martial arts to vent his inner pain. When his mother dies of cancer, the boy, now a young man and a fine martial artist, enters a martial arts tournament in Japan, hoping to win and thereby gain his father’s acceptance. He wins the tournament—but learns too late that the victory brings with it life-long servitude to an international crime syndicate. He escapes the syndicate’s clutches and heads to the U.S. with his championship belt to find his father, but gets stranded in Centerville — a small, end-of-the-road desert town owned by a cannabis-growing syndicate and ruled by an insane Chief of Police. When the Chief learns of our hero’s celebrity status in the martial arts world from a mysterious young woman claiming to be a reporter from “Ultimate Fighter Magazine”, the Chief sees an opportunity to reverse his town’s dead-end existence and gives our hero an ultimatum — fight in a staged tournament in Centerville or go to prison on trumped-up charges. When an escape from Centerville is made possible by a brave local, our hero faces the dilemma of saving himself or helping rid the town of the insane Chief. Our hero decides to help the town and stays! The Chief loses control of his tournament when the international crime syndicate’s boss and martial artists arrive — all hell-bent on killing our hero and thereby becoming Champion. The tournament becomes a fight-to-the-death, a fight with unexpected twists and turns — which our hero wins, gaining the respect of the town and his father. But, with a price still on his head, our hero has to move on — and his real adventure begins!
