Film is a medium
created by the need to express hope through shared humor and emotions in
a society no longer localized. Film can be used to reveal ourselves
to each other. Film can be an interchange of our humanness in such
a way as to let us see each other as we are, not just as consumers of the
least common denominators of our natures. |
