We often treat images of pain and suffering as if they have some intrinsic meaning that'll be immediately obvious to everyone. This episode focuses less on finding meaning in images of pain, and more about the struggle to give them meaning. Filmmaker Alex Juhasz has to decide what to do with a tape she recorded of her best friend, Jim, as he was dying of AIDS. Then, in the border zone between Turkey and Syria in 2014, Transterra Media founder Jonathan Giesen receives hard-drives full of images shot by Syrian rebel groups and citizen journalists hoping to sell their footage. It’s here Giesen receives the first video clip of an ISIS public execution.   Featuring: Alexandra Juhasz, Stefan Tarnowski, and Jonathan Giesen
