I Know I’m Not Alone
Last night, I saw a free screening of this movie by Michael Franti, I Know I’m Not Alone. The movie captures the journey of Franti’s journey to Iraq, Israel, and Pakistan. On the film’s website, Franti says in a statement, “This film came out of my frustration with watching the nightly news and hearing generals, politicians and pundits, explaining the political and economic cost of the war in the Middle East, without ever mentioning the human cost.” The film is very simply made and edited. Franti is our guitar-playing guide and intermediary to the lives of the people he encounters. It’s a simple set-up, but much more intimate — you feel like you’re there, too, with the people.
