- New Film Resource About Soldiers Who ‘Disobey’…
… or obey a higher calling, that is.
Ian Slattery, the Associate Producer of this film, got in touch with us about how to connect his film and our peace week. It sounds like some interesting stuff:
“Hi SEW folks!
I’m contacting you about our documentary film, SOLDIERS OF CONSCIENCE, and your Peace Week. Here’s a link to our 2-minute trailer: http://www.socfilm.com
We’re local – based in North Berkeley – and would love to share some info about our film with folks gathered at your events. For instance, we have two upcoming screenings of the film at the Mill Valley Film Festival. In addition, we’re always seeking to build relationships with faith leaders of all denominations in order to make the film available as a useful resource for religious communities across the country.
Many thanks for the work you are doing – and for considering this request!”

For those who like blogs and don’t like Bush: (Be warned that this includes some expletives)
The facial tics and jumbled verbiage of this actor are uncannily realistic. The truth of it is scary.
