Andrea Kalin is a documentary filmmaker who focuses on social, mental health and women's health issues. She uses storytelling and marketing strategies to promote social change and raise awareness to societal problems, such as woman's health issues and suicide. Some of her productions, such as Prince Among Slaves, Partners of the Heart, and Soul of a People, tell stories lost to history, while others—Dancing with N.E.D., Scattering CJ, and The Pact address contemporary social issues, such as women's "below the belt" (GYN) cancers suicide and inner city male role models.[5][6]

In 2021, Andrea Kalin began production of a documentary film entitled "A Capitol Case.[9] The film is about a DC left-leaning public defender named Heather Shaner who represents over a dozen January 6 defendants with a commitment to rehabilitating her clients through education. [10]

In the days after the January 6, 2021 attack, Heather Shaner, Esq. got a call from the Federal Defender’s Office asking her to represent those charged with crimes related to January 6th. Heather weighed the decision and elected to take on a handful of nonviolent misdemeanants. Her intent was not to get her clients off the hook for sedition but to understand how an average American could become so radicalized. The film features a number of her clients. |url=https://sparkmedia.org/projects/a-capitol-case/ |website=Spark Media |publisher=Spark Media}}</ref>
