implemented to allow input from people who are not part of the "film
industry" but are active citizens and enthusiasts? What if this process
was encouraged in many distinct communities? What if casts are taken
from the community where the story is developed and what if the cast is
involved in developing the story? If skilled directors, producers and
writers facilitated this process, I believe we would have renaissance in
the art of cinema and a more inclusive industrial hierarchy would
emerge. O whole new festival structure would emerge where communities
root for their home movie company almost the same way they would for
their sports teams.

coincide with some of your projections, whether a truly collective creative
utopia emerges from this remains to be seen. Their website is:
