ANNOUNCING ROBERT GREENWALD'S NEXT FILM -- IRAQ FOR SALE: THE
WAR PROFITEERS from Kristin Cook Crinot (with the following
note: from the producer of outfoxxed and Walmart From: Jim
Gilliam)
Hello friends and brave new supporters,
Some exciting news at Brave New Films. We're ready to start
production on Robert's new documentary: "Iraq for Sale: The War
Profiteers." Over the last few months we've recruited a core team,
and with the help of our volunteer field producers, have uncovered
some devastating and powerful material that hasn't been seen before.
We need your help to make it, more about that in a minute.
IRAQ FOR SALE: The War Profiteers will hold these corporations
accountable for crimes against humanity. Watch the teaser trailer and
a message from Robert here:
http://iraqforsale.org/ To start shooting, we need money. Overall, the film will cost about
$750,000. We can expect about $450,000 of it to be offset by DVD
sales, selling foreign rights, and an advance from our retail store
distributor, but we still need $300,000.
THE BRIDGE (04/30/06): THANK YOU, SPORTS GOV FLETCH; FOLLOW THE
MONEY
A generous donor just stepped up and will contribute $100,000 if we
can match it with $200,000 from someone else.
That someone else is you! 4000 people giving $50 each. We'll put
everyone's name in the credits. You can give these donations as gifts
in someone's name or in memory of a loved one if you'd like.
http://iraqforsale.org/donate.php Imagine that. 4000 names scrolling by at the end of the film. Almost
as many people as in the Lord of the Rings credits!
More importantly, this is people standing up to corporations. It's a
clear message... a beautiful thing and exactly what the film is
about. Every newspaper article written will talk about how IRAQ FOR
SALE was funded by YOU.
