The rest of the world

This arrived over the transom. I don't know anything about it:

"The Rest of the World"

Friday, May 7th, 6:30pm . Apple Store, NYC . 103 Prince St. (at Greene)

"The Rest of the World" is the first in a series of 40-minute
documentary films focused on how U.S. foreign and domestic policy
impacts the lives of people throughout the world.

The film was shot in Winnipeg, Canada and features an extensive
interview with Howard Zinn, author of "A People's History of the United
States."

The objective for each film is to weave together a number of interviews
with people around the world to create a dialogue on America's global
influence - both social and political - covering everything from
Starbucks Coffee to the War in Iraq.

By focusing the bulk of the series primarily on the perspective of
those who live elsewhere in the world, I will seek to address the role
of the United States objectively, and not only provide some clarity on
the actions and decisions this country is now pursuing abroad, but
provoke a healthy dialogue - a "Communication Movement," if you will -
between individuals throughout the world.

Running time is 40 minutes.

The site goes live on Friay.
