About A Burning Fire

I’m allowed to discuss this now.  

In a little less then three and a half months, I return to Israel. I have accepted an offer to return to the Promised Land all expenses paid, gratis of an independent film production company out of Phoenix. We will be making a full-length theaterical documentary on the Israeli-Palastenian conflict. We are a crew of four. The previous photojournalist/writer dropped out when Lebannon littered Nazareth and Haifa with bombs. Pansy.

None of the other three have ever been to Israel, thus my presence. This will be the fourth independent film I have worked on, but the first full-length, and the first to be released into theaters (a potential distribution deal is said to be in the works with the same indie-distro-owened-by-a-big-corporate-people whom brought you Showgirls and Kids …. that’s right, Disney!).

Will it be the next Invisible Children or A Closer Walk? Will it be the next The Postman or North? I don’t know … but I don’t care. We will spend three weeks in Israel, Palastine, and the West Bank. Yes, I think that includes Gaza someplace.

Giddyup.
