ONE THE MOVIE

Early one morning, in April, 2002, a middle-aged father of three from Michigan suddenly awoke from a sound sleep, overcome by a strange compulsion... to make a movie. What made this so strange, is that he was not a film-maker. In fact, he had no training, education or experience whatsoever in the field. So, he immediately called his cousin and best friend to enlist their help with the project. They eagerly agreed. Problem: They were not film-makers either. The original format for the movie was not initially well defined. Only that it would somehow involve asking a specific set of questions to people from all walks of life to get many perspectives, and this together with a mix of music and images would tell a story. What was well defined from the outset became the theme of the project: We Are All One. The energy of Oneness would be the force to carry the day.

No experience, no connections, no script, no equipment, no budget ... no problem.
