t seems to me you have a very interesting project going on. I wonder if you are documenting the history of the US Green party or the global green political movement. As a long time US Green (joined the New Haven Greens in 1987) and founding member of the Bucks County (PA) Greens I’m fascinated about how others might see the Green Party movement in the US.
In the ’80′s I was deeply influenced by the writings of Charlene Spretnak and Fritjof Capra (Green Politics). The two are considered as the founders of the Green Party in the US. I wonder to what extent you are referencing them as you trace the history of the Green Party (which I think has strayed considerably from the mark of late).
Hi there Babette, (??, who the message is intended for, not sure who attends this website)
Sonali here, one of the shooters on the film…wondering how things were going with the film, if you could correct the spelling of my name on your website whenever you might have the time, and also if it would be possible to get any of the footage that I shot for my reel. Hoping all is well on your end. Again, thanks for the opportunity, and good luck with your film.
