Let’s Choose Our Future
We can determine the future. It is within our control, our power.
But you must decide, which reality do you want going forward? And you must act to bring that choice forward. It is a choice that effects not just your film, career, your company, or your national cultural industry, but this choice & your decision has global & long-lasting implications.
Door #1:
Massively centralized, corporate control of the funding, production, promotion, distribution, presentation, and appreciation of culture.
Door #2:
Creators & their collaborators being able to fully support themselves through their art & work, by aligning & collaborating with specifically defined and dedicated audiences.

Demand Jafar Panahi’s Freedom
Filmmaker Jafar Panahi has been sentenced to six years in prison, and twenty years without making films, contact with the press, or travel. Another filmmaker, Mohammad Rassoulov, has been likewise sentenced to six years in prison. They are both in Iran and sentenced by the court there. Artists and citizens everywhere must do all they can to prevent this attack on artistic freedom. The Cannes Film Festival and other organizations have started this petition that all should sign as soon as possible.
