Fire Under the Snow in the Bay Area

Jim Browne shared this notice that I think is worthy of everyone’s attention.

Dear Friends,

The film I produced, FIRE UNDER THE SNOW, will have its Bay Area premiere as part of the Mill Valley Film Festival(Oct 2-12, 2008). I will be present for both screenings, Oct 5 & 9. Hope you can make it out to the show.

Best, Jim Browne

BAY AREA PREMIERE of FIRE UNDER THE SNOW

2008, 75. min.Directed by Makoto Sasa http://www.fireunderthesnow.comhttp://www.argotpictures.com/

The Venerable Palden Gyatso, a Buddhist monk since childhood, was arrested by the Chinese Communist Army in 1959. He spent 33 years in prison for the ‘crime’ of demonstrating peacefully. He was starved and tortured. His nation and culture were destroyed, his teachers, friends and family displaced, jailed or killed under Chinese occupation. Despite this, he remains unbroken, and keeps the flame of his spirit ablaze.

Everyone Must Go

Wide Eye Cinema presents The Fourth World War, a documentary by Big Noise Films. The footage is really quite good, and illustrates well the global impact of the criminalized economic market. Other links on Wide Eye, however, illustrate the hazard of conspiracism, a right-wing meme that has infected left-wing milieus via pseudo-scholarship and uncritical alternative media.
