Michael Franti Documentary screening.

The Michael Franti directed documentary I know i'm not alone will be screened in the Film Base, Curved Street, Temple Bar, Dublin 2 on Thursday the 7th of December at 8:30 PM. Tickets are priced at €5 and the film will be introduced with a talk by Kieran Allen.

"Armed with an acoustic guitar and a video camera, musician Michael Franti takes us on a musical journey through war and occupation in Iraq, Israel and Palestine. Along the way he shares his music with families, doctors, musicians, soldiers and everyday people who in turn reveal to him the often overlooked human cost of war.

With its guerrilla style footage captured in active war zones, the documentary is unlike the many academic and politically driven pieces in the marketplace, instead offering the audience a sense of intimate travel and the opportunity to hear the voices of everyday people living, creating and surviving under the harsh conditions of war and occupation."
