    this film.


    There are many ways you can be involved in this film,

    spreading the word we need many many friends and they need to search...

    so blog the film, digg it, tell your local,national newspapers....

    Contributing music,costumes, being part of the crew, cast, contributing ideas for the story....

    Thanks O.
