I made my contribution today. Did you? (click here)

...a sincere thank you...

That was the last of the films I viewed at the Fourth Traverse City Film Festival. There was still another day to the festival, but, responsibilities were to call me home.
There were so many exceptional films I could have stayed easily one more day to the closing ceremonies and perhaps next year I will.
I want to thank all those involved with the festival, the State Theater restoration and the burgeoning film industry of Michigan for a completely enjoyable stay and a chance to find a higher conscience to events that shape the life and times I enjoy.
Until next year.

I Am Because We Are

Ubuntu is an African word. It is a noun. Its definition is humanity or fellow feeling; kindness. It orginates from the language spoken by the Nguni (click here). In translation it means, "I am because you are." (click here). It is a word used to relate the concept of 'society' we live in. Society is supposed to be benevolent. Kind.

I was not one of the lucky winners to the tickets of this film at the State Theater. I was not one of the lucky winners of tickets to the simulcast at The City Opera House. I was however a lucky person willing to stand in line at The City Opera House hoping there would be a few seats not taken that might be accommodating people as unlucky as myself. I was not alone, there were others as unlucky as me. But. Alas. Even that wasn't my reality. So, how did I get in? A couple attending the simulcast literally walked up to myself and the gentleman in front of me and asked if we would like tickets to the film. It was that simple. I didn't pay a dime and I got to see the simulcast in its entirety. There is a god. I still have the ticket as a souvenir. I gave the $25.00 I would have paid at the State Theater, if I attended there, as a donation to Madonna's charity for these children.

The film was incredible and "No, it wasn't an ego trip for Madonna." She was absolutely lovely that evening. Her story was fascinating.

She states she received a phone call. Now, I am sure that is the case, but, I know for a fact if I tried to call Madonna she would not be available to me nor would I know where to begin to find a phone number for her.

She received a phone call from a person working with an NGO in Malawi (click here). The country was in a state of emergency due to the high number of deaths of adults caused by HIV/AIDS. The person at the other end of the phone stated, "Can you help. We need someone to bring attention to their plight and you would be a person with enough recognition to move people to focus on Malawi's children." Madonna stated back, "I would help, but, I don't even know where Malawi is." The woman phone caller stated, "Look it up." and hung up the phone. That was the beginning of Madonna's venture into a reality few people knew existed. Needless to say she fell in love with the children there and adopted a seriously ill boy (click here) whom will soon have an adopted sister.

Desmond Tutu appears in the film and helps explain the crisis in Malawi and why the world's attention is so critical. During most of the film I had this haunting reality lingering in my thoughts as to 'What the heck happened to the aid the USA was sending these people?" (click here)

The children are profoundly disaffected by HIV/AIDS as some were born with the disease subsequently losing their parents as well. A result were literally children attempting to care for children. They were in survival mode with no resources to sustain them or anyone to teach them how to survive. It was more than sad to realize the level of neglect these children existed in and it was a reassuring reality to come to that a single Pop Star would be their salvation.

I mean for real here. What if that phone call was never made? What if Madonna never had conscience enough to go to their assistance. Do you know the dangers that existed for her when entering a country without infectious disease controls enough to protect its children? There just aren't words enough to describe this reality.

Children now respond to the structure afforded them by Madonna's efforts and receive medicine if they need it, while turning away from survival to more joyous events such as learning and playing. Their childhood is not completely lost to them.

An entire nation of children survives of the ravages of HIV today because a SuperStar cared. It is a global responsiblity for people to now give these children a chance at life, learning and rebuilding a country they inherited, but, a country in shambles from disease. We should all be grateful Madonna received the call.

Redacted

It is a Brian De Palma film. Like. WOW.

I knew going into the festival I would be seeing at least one film about Iraq. I have seen fictious films about Iraq. Films that claimed to portray reality. I didn't bargain for this.

This was a low budget film by De Palma. I think the figure was $2 million. You couldn't prove it by me and there is something to be said about 'seasoned' film artists and getting the biggest bag for the buck.

The film captures the 'dirty potential' of Iraq. It was adapted from real headlines. One might say that Brian De Palma 'had had enough' of the censorship surrounding this war and he decided to throw a small budget film together to entertain the imagination of a nation excluded from a 'real discussion' regarding this war and its more heinous aspects.

The story takes place with GIs stressed by their own sad reality in a country where language barriers are half the issue of American deployments. These soldiers are isolated from any relief to their circumstances and on prolonged deployments without any reality checks.

The circumstances of the film are more than possible. Where American troops are 'law and order' in a country void of any other authority, there is nothing to prevent abuse of citizens for personal purpose and reward to any soldier.

Despite this being a work of fiction, there was so much potential to its circumstances the audience was completely disgusted with its content. One man was so angry at its potential he stood up and walked out while yelling, "Fuck you, America." One got the feeling he might have been a war veteran.

The 'sting' came at the end of this film where actual pictures of dead Iraqi civilians appear with one being the young girl victim of the film. The ending was very surreal.

It is a film any self respecting adult should attend with an open mind to the 'idea' of its reality. It gave profound credence to priorities to leave Iraq and to leave it to an authority 'of, by and for' the Iraqi people.

Thank you, Mr. De Palma.

The Shorts

Mike features 'short films' during the festival. They are shown before regular feature films. They are entertaining and help capture the 'adventurism of the mind' which is the real commodity Mike deals with during this festival.
Another feature of the experience is that it is 'commercial free.' Really commercial free, not like the cable station idea of commercial free, but, sincerely lacking any distraction from the purpose of attending great films.
There were always 'credits of the festival' at the beginning of any film at all the venues. These credits were 'Thank You Notes' to sponsors and to people no longer with the festival that were significant to its development.
It's nice at Traverse City for their annual film festival. Very nice.

A President to Remember: In the Company of John F. Kennedy

It was a film about JFK. It showed his personality and his willingness to be The People's President. He was a great man. Our country has suffered immeasurably because of his assassination. His loss is palpable as is Bobby's death.

I can't say anything about this film that the subject doesn't already say. I simply loved this film and it was so very refreshing to see him and hear his voice again.

Trouble the Water

This was my last day at the festival while enjoying the dinner fare of the city.

The Day started with a quintessential film about Katrina survivors. This has to be the definitive film regarding the hideous priorities of a nation whereby over a thousand of its citizens died, many still missing and thousands more displaced from their homes.

One would almost say it wasn't necessary to make another Katrina film, but, this one had to be made.

The film used actual footage taken by the people in the picture above. They were stranded in the storm. The woman is Tia Lessin, a rap artist. She happened to have a camera and video taped many of the realities the people of New Orleans were faced with when attempting to stay alive.

She managed to protect her film footage, then next thing she knew she was speaking to people connected to films like Fahrenheit 911 and the rest is history.

The film is compelling. The American government completely failed people along the Gulf Coast. This storm was 'expected' by so many in that region of the country. People planned their survival for more than a decade by placing axes in their attics to hack through the roof of their homes to escape rising flood waters. That is NEGLECT of a government. The American people need to sincerely examine the chronic denial they live in as a result of poorly placed priorities.

The film should be a staple in everyone's home. This level of government neglect due to denial of the truth is more than just a 'Katrina thing,' it is a citizen thing. The next time it might be a Homeland Security issue that involves you and the ones you love. This film isn't about 'just' Katrina, it is about how well the government listens and responds to its citizens.

Are the Russians leaving?

NO !

There is not going to be a conflict between the USA and Russia over the emergency in Georgia. The President of Georgia created this emergency and now the Russians are going to contend with it.

Ever since the Soviet Union restructured into Russia and other smaller nations, Russia has fretted and worried about the people of these small nations. Georgia literally turned on its own people in the two break away regions.

Russia is not going to stand by and allow more of the same. Russia is interested in 'one thing' and 'one thing' only. They are interested in stable political states. Stable political states mean there is 'order.' Where there is order, people can live 'predictable' lives. Whether those lives reflect democracy or not isn't the priority of Russia. Any country that sees Russia as 'Anti-Democracy' is sadly mistaken and is raining propaganda in 'fear' of a Russian dominated global environment.

Russia is not going to leave Georgia. Just that simple. The Georgian President thought he could play god with his citizens' lives to invoke a Western backed war. HE WAS WRONG !

U.S. troops arrive with aid for Georgia (click here)

TBILISI, Georgia, Aug. 14 (UPI) -- U.S. military personnel arrived in Tblisi, Georgia, delivering humanitarian aid to thousands of people displaced by the Georgian-Russian conflict.
A senior U.S. Department of Defense official said the relief effort was meant to demonstrate to Russia that the United States "can come to the aid of a European ally and that we can do it at will, whenever and wherever we want," The New York Times (NYSE:NYT) reported Thursday.
In ordering the mission, U.S. President George Bush said Wednesday he expected Russia to honor the cease-fire and ensure that "all lines" remained open for "the delivery of humanitarian assistance and for civilian transit."...

I tell you what.

New Hurricane Potential.

Hm.

I realized these last few entries would begin to displace all the other entries from today off the front page of the blog. So, I'll end here for now and finish it tomorrow morning.

Let's hope the lid is still on nuclear war by then and Bush hasn't blown a gasket and done something stupid.

Russia took a day off, long enough to reflect on its priorities. I stated before, Georgia is destined for different sovereignty. The rest of the world needs to take responsibility for this escalation of Russian authority and step back from 'any brink' to ensure the humanitarian aid to Georgia reaches people that are still alive and not victimized as 'the front on global war.'

Good-bye for now.

Man in the Chair

Christopher Plummer propelled this film into its content. He made everything fall into place, includng the justifible lawlessness pervading the characters.

The film revolves around persons with talent and their lack of fiscal clout to express themselves. The youngest of the cast is a high school student longing to make a 'short film' that matters while in contest for a prize.

He meets an elderly man that lives with a group of 'old stage hands' in a home where they are pent up without venues for their continued desire for expression. Hence, the plot for a film that entertains the imagination for the potential of elder abuse as tempered by a young man seeking purpose beyond being pleasing to parents.

What surprised me was the degree violence was engaged as an aspect of content to this film. There are several times when violence intermingles with the story line and brings about the reality that poverty begets different priorities at any age.

Without giving the ending away, the story resounds in unusual content except for the heart warming reality time goes forward in the human condition and it is tempered by those we meet along the way.

Anvil - The Story of Anvil

If they were only better looking. That is the only conclusion I could possibly come to in reflecting on the exclusion of "Anvil" from the heavy metal success of groups such as Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and Van Halen.

Maybe its because they were from Canada?

The movie is a hugely wonderful documentary that reaches the depths of friendship and the devasting feelings of ? failure ? resulting in a lives lived in love with their music and the struggle to be heard.

I am sorry folks, but, these guys are good.

The airing of their film might be another chapter if futility for Anvil, but, I would sincerely hope this is one of realizing the perfection years of dedication can bring to a performer.

Some would criticise them for existing at all 'at their age' but the reality is there are many artists from that era remaining on the stage and enjoying their continued popularity. In all honesty, they add to the bouyancy of Democracy whether anyone wants to realize it or not.

I purchased their CD after the appearance and performance following the film. I didn't 'stick around' for autographs as I had to get to the next film, but, many people stayed for signatures and photos as well.

Anvil generously played at Union Street Station that evening for those that just couldn't get enough.

The largest of the venues was packed. Perhaps, 'SOLD OUT' is a better set of words for the airing of this film. That should tell everyone something.

Sympathy for the Lobster

Sabina Guzzanti comes of age. She is brilliant. She more than adequaitely has directed a film thick with satire that maps out the frustration of independent artists involved in political content.

This film supports Sabina's love of film and desire to express political content within that media.

She is an important player in Italy if there is ever to be a replacement of the corrupt conservative right wing of that government which dominates 'the day.' She brings a 'stage/platform' for change in Italy that is a gathering place for ideas.

This film illuminates her skills and intellect while scaldingly assigns satire to the purpose of media activism. The artists involved, as Michael Moore will well testify, suffer immeasurably for their loyalty to 'the cause.' That suffering is based in 'preceived' lack of success of their films to change its audiences' priorities in political venues toward the moral content of the documentary.

Artists, by nature, are fluid in their expression. Due to that fact, they use humor and satire to portray issues that otherwise go unnoticed. They are brave and undaunted in perfecting their craft and if this film says anything about Sabina's talent than let it be the reassurance that Italy has a magnificent director of material very similar to the documentary style of Moore.

This work of fiction must have been a relief for Sabina to express herself without championing a cause while still making strong political statements regarding 'the state of her craft' and her personal growth within it.

I congratulate her. This is a captivating film that leaves you concerned for her while realizing she, if not someone else, simply 'had to make this film.'

Dinner with the President - A Nation's Journey

This was also a must see film for me. I passed up a 'to die for' film about Antarctica to specifically see this film. It answered a myriad of questions for me.

The most profound question it answered is why a government backed with enormous amounts of USA cash would result in a resurgence of Taliban that would propagate further war in Afghanistan.

The reality of 'the truth' regarding the role Pakistan plays in continued proliferation of terrorists and their networks, which twice attacked a Former Prime Minister and successfully killed her, is found in the destructuring of the former Pakistan government by the Musharraf coup.

His own words, coming from his own mouth during his interactions with the author to this film indicts him.

The film seeks the reasons why women are so victimized as political icons burdened with 'veils' as opposed to the reality that they long to live without them and the freedom that accompanies that. The author does not give the former Prime Minister Benazir a free pass either as she states, "...but, she wears one as well."

During the interview with Musharraf the 'organizational' level of the Pakistan government is revealed. Literally, Musharraf took an organized government and decentralized it to the tribal level while calling it 'Democracy.' It turned loose hugely varying philosophies and diatribes of authority rather than 'the rule of law.' It also explains why there have been attempts to assassinate him.

There is no relief for the Pakistani people from the anarchy Musharraf flourishes. And to think he wrote a book to entertain the American public with 'ideas' of his political justification; is to realize the isolation he literally has been able to secure for himself that protects him from the reality of 'The Pakistan Street.'

Perez Musharraf is a war lord and the monies paid to Pakistan by the Rumsfeld military strategy helped secure a dictator/general for Pakistan that has turned loose every available resource to facilitate terrorist havens.

Musharraf's 'definition' of DEMOCRACY is to provide 'local authority' with ultimate authority. There is no 'representative' government in Pakistan which is why it has been nearly impossible to hold elections within that country.

ANY ELECTION OTHER THAN PRESIDENT is completely meaningless unless you are tribal elder. There exists no 'rule of law' in Pakistan under Musharraf, but, only 'continued class struggles' at the local level which feeds local militias and nurtures global terrorists.

If it weren't for the generous words of criticism by Benazir Bhutto of Bush in regard to the Presidential elections in Pakistan, we would still be allowing the government of a war lord and coup leader to propagate terrorism. She was more than a friend to the USA, she was a pivotal ally.

The film is a charming inquistion into political dynamics that are boasted to by Musharraf whereby women are excluded in very real mechanisms to change in Pakistan.

The most impressive aspect to this film, other than the President indicting himself, is the discourse that occurs with a tribal conclave between elders and the author. It was a female risk to even confront the tribal conclave, yet alone succeed in disbanding it in disgust for its ridicule of female freedoms.

It is completely obvious how 'inherited' slavery exists in Pakistan and how 'sentencing' of enforcable rape takes place. The Pakistan tribal conclaves are based in vengeance and not in national laws enforced equitably by dedicated authority. It is more than possible the Taliban flourished in anarchy among these tribes and an even greater possiblity Bin Laden is among them.

Let the Right One In

The long existing question as to how vampires survive has been answered.
Man, what a blastedly good thriller film this was.
This Swedish interpretation of survival of modern day vampires felt as though there was blood in the aisles. No lie. There was no lack of frankly obvious blood and decaying bodies.
The real clincher to this thriller was the 'child' element. For all my life I have envisioned vampires as adults. Well, guess what? They can be children, too.
The logic in this thriller jars the conscious and compels the viewer. The victimization of the pschye by the reality of a child vampire and what that means to parenting became all to imposing.
Magnificent work.
Within this thriller existed the Michael Moore theme of 'justice of the underdog' and that was more amazing than any other aspect of the festival that blended an emotional rollercoaster into its content and interest.
I could not believe this film was conceived and actually existed. It was entertainment unexpected and refreshing at a point in the festival where distraction served to return me to reality 'of the moment.'

Head Wind

Iranaians are NOT in isolation. I can only imagine what the Bush Propaganda media is doing to these people.
The other title to the film should be "How to make an Ayatollah crazy."
The state run media of Iran has little affect to the majority of those influenced by 'independent television access.
The West needs to relax as there is no danger to the proliferation of independent media in Iran. The determination that these folks seek 'homemade' satellite dishes is daughting. I wonder how much Israeli TV is actually viewed in Iran.
The Iranian government virtually has given up in attempting control of the volume if satellite dish TV among its populous. The police run raids on occassion to keep the Ayatollah happy, but, as soon as the dishes are gone there are more in their place.
The film is more a reality into the lack of understanding of commercial ventures than it is anti-Ayatollah. The satellite dish network of Iran is alive and healthy facilitated by entrepeneurs that manufacture their products in very primative methods. The manufacturer of the satellite dishes literally delivers it by bicycle and sets up the signal to the awaiting television as well.
This film was absolutely amazing and speaks to the commonality of the human experience and the need for self gratification and freedom.
I found it more entertaining than enlightening. I sincerely am not afraid of Iran, so much concerned for its corner on primative independent media moguls.

Body of War

An adventure worth taking with Phil Donahue (click here).
I passed up "Kenny" to stand in a waiting line for this film. It was worth every minute of waiting.
I did not anticipate the strong anti-war content. I thought this would be a film that would simply honor 'the veteran,' but it also provided opposition to the Iraq invasion that was 'new' and completely welcome.
Body of War took great pains to allow the personality of its subject to dominate the content of the film. We all are aware of Iraq War Veterans Against the War that sometimes is viewed by a greater society as a 'grudge match' with the priorities of war by the current administration. This film removes any doubt regarding the 'disposable' nature assigned by The Bush/Cheney Executive Branch of our miiltary personnel.
Phil took the reality of his subject to a level any organized and commercial media service never broached, not even The Washington Post in its criticism of Walter Reed.
Our soldiers are being given 'The Bums' Rush' when it comes to their war injuries and any potential for complete recovery or ability to live a quasi-normal life.
The film made me wonder if The Geneva Conventions covered the abuse of a government of its veterans, because there are 'human rights' violations of the American military personnel as well as their recruiting services that became an underlying reality of this film. The expectations of this veteran for his purpose in enlisting and the resultant life 'he was left' are nothing short of 'merchanising' war for palatability with no promise by the USA military to live up to its' commercialization of war.
The physical condition of this generation of Disabled Vet is grossly different with poorer prognosis than I ever expected going into this film. Phil provided an opportunity for this veteran to meet one of a previous war. The 'time' given in recovery to past generations of Disabled Vets was vastly more comprehensive, both in 'physical content and the prioriites of mental health.' Tomas, the subject of the film, literally loses his very promising marriage to ghosts of masculine failure. Those quality of life issues were NOT a problem to a role model Tomas visited which clearly defined an America 'out of sync' with its loyality to their soldiers.
Phil Donahue's commitment to his subject didn't stop with Tomas' message regarding the war, it portrayed in unspoken images the reality of a man neglected by his country. It made me wonder how much of an Iraq War Disabled Veteran's life was for the purpose of medical research rather than support for body and life style changes, because their mental health has been completely discarded as a priority.
Phil's dedication to his subject resulted in a friendship that continues today. He informed the audience to the continually deteriorating physical condition of Tomas which was undoubtedly faciliated by his aloneness in life.
Senator Byrd appears in the film as a friend to Tomas. Together they mark the legislators that voted 'NO' to Iraq's illegal invasion. Senator Byrd characterizes the nay sayers as "The Immortal 23." And indeed, the reality to that fact is overwhelming.

Up The Yangtze

The picture above did not cinematically dominate the film content in actual film footage or time so much as theme. The film focused most of its cinematography on a tourist boat of the Yangtze River. This river was 'lost' in its natural spendor to the demands of The Three Gorges Dam.
The social content of the picture was dramatic including loss of opportunity of Chinese youth to advanced education due to economic strife. Don't tell me for one minute that is not a growing reality in the USA, because it is and what overwhelming is a burgeoning awareness to 'cultural content' of countries dominated by Bush Empire Dreamscapes.
The film chronicled the change in the water levels, both actual and anticipated, of a river that would contribute to a huge China project that may prove to provide necessary water to the people of that nation, if the dam holds up to the 'weight stress' of such high volunes of water behind concrete..
As witnessed with the 2008 Olympics as well, China goes to great length to portray an image that is immaculate of flaws. To that end the people of China are served in their importance and political dedication to them.
China is a People's Republic. It should pay attention to its populous and be the promise of their futures. In that reality is also the content of high population demands met by a government that copes as best it can.
The film is not a ridicule to China, except in the minds of the movie goers. There was every reason to believe the Chinese government actually consented to this film as it portrays a strong reality in the sacrifices of its younger members in finding a foothold to economic survival. It also reveals a commitment to 'love of family' with a reality tempered by the demands of Communism and its removal of family members to work priorities.
The success to these huge building projects by China is not due to mechanization facilitated by fiscal wealth, but, in harnessing physical laborers to accomplish what many smaller countries with similar economic issues cannot achieve. Every brick laid for the 'lining' of the water canal leading to the dam was by hand. That goes for the manufacture of the stones themselves.
China is a not a 'comfy' country to live in and relies on its people to facilitate its growth. There is no way American labor wages can apply in China, but, the nation does need to provide a great health care content to its rural populations. If the Chinese people love their country enough to devote lives to its construction and uplifting from impoverishment, then they should be supplied a healthful longevity that rewards the reflection of old age.
The film is cinematically rich and when put into content to China's political reality vs USA becomes more revealing than the average film goer might anticipate. I enjoyed it, especially in 'revealing' the Chinese struggle as well as its success.
Excellant film.

Bigger, Stronger, Faster

Wicked co-dependency.

The film places into perspective the reality of anabolic steriods and the unfortunate relationship they have with the American male persona.

It profiles three brothers and their exposure to a male identity that should be shelved along with the morphing of GI Joe through the years.

The reality is that 'risk taking' with anabolic steriods is more demonized than reality. The dangers of 'using' are real, but, they are also in the minority of health concerns of American men and boys.

At the other end of 'using' are real rewards in that if 'you make it' there is wealth and financial security. It should be noted the success of such priorities in the USA only propagates the abuse of average people that are conceptualizing their own opportunity.

"Using" anabolic steriods surmounts to 'living a lie.' The realities of 'super-human' content exist through eugenics. The film also and appropriately so, examines this fact of life. In other words, if genetics can be captured by those that can afford it to harness economic success then why shouldn't those that can't afford it be excluded from that exclusive club? Anabolic steriods is the answer to 'average genetic content' in a world destined to win at all costs, including 'Speedo suits' that are either standard issue to all Olympic swimmers OR NOT !

The film was a real eye opener in that it revealed a reality not pursued by media that see opposition to anabolic steriod use as a political volley for Republicans and a distraction from illegal wars.

The moral content to this film was gratifying while it explored 'the truth' beyond a shadow of a doubt regarding anabolic steriods.

This film was no different at its conclusion than most of the others which provided access to the film makers and stars for Q and A sessions. It was interesting to say the least.

The Youngest Candidate

This is the film I longed to see from the first view of the festival catalog. I had no idea the director of the film was actually a Michael Moore prodigy.

The film followed the burgeoning careers of four political candidates that some would characterize as 'bearly out of diapers.'

I was completely 'about this concept'. The driving force behind the promotion of young candidates has several venues.

To begin, our political content in the USA has become 'Old World,' in that, it has also become corrupted. If there is one reality this film portrayed with each candiate is their commitment to wholesomeness of character while promoting their belief in 'truth in government and lack of corruption.'

These young people are exciting and full of potential. To that end, Mr. Pollock has not abandoned them to their inability to be elected 'in the first go round.' He is forming a non-profit group to support these young people and faciliate their priorities for government without thrusting their defeat into priorities of 'becoming part of the problem' in order to be elected.

This film has potential beyond its content. It has the promise of a return to government of, by and for the people. It 'sorta' is a film before its time, except, in the year 2008 we actually do have a "Candidate for Change."

4 months, 3 weeks and 2 days

The female plight of having, but, not owning a uterus. It 'examines' the reality of a country, namely Romania, and its lack of comprehensive support to women (click here).

This film was long overdue to be shown in the USA. It encompasses a 'revisit' to the nighmarish reality of women that are faced with lack of access to abortion. Increasingly in the USA, the political content of legalized abortion is shrinking to the point of enforcing 'back street' abortions once again. We have already witnessed women 'taking chances' with their lives in having the force of baseball bats leveled against already expectant bellies.

To that end, this film provides some of the most desperate of circumstances of women faced with few choices in birth control, while exploited for their sexual nature to a society that little values them otherwise.

Impoverishment of culture is the underlying content to this film. Where a society seeks richness in cultural content it extends its ability to support an economy that uplifts both genders and provides opportunity.

In a waning economic reality of the USA that permeates global dynamics one of the first places women will find suffering is their 'uterine' reality.

Women were born with a uterus, that does NOT entitle any society to 'trap' them into a reality of servitude to its potential.

This film is powerfully contented with completely disgusting potentials to a reality that at one time the USA left behind as a form of gender slavery.
