Depressed by the war? So are we! Guest host Alex Paul of WDBX presents I Know I’m Not Alone, a feature documentary by musician and activist Michael Franti of Spearhead. Shot on a 3- week journey to Iraq and the Palestinian Occupied territories in 2004. Franti writes, "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. I wanted to hear about the war by the people affected by it most: doctors, nurses, poets, artists, soldiers, and my personal favorite, musicians."

Cache Girl Saves the World is a pioneering experiment in film and literature produced by author Adam E. Stone and musician and storyteller Thirza Defoe. This project explores an innovative new approach to storytelling, combining audio of the novel's text with music and still photographs of the story's action to create a "novel in visions." The images, words, and songs of this visual novel tell the tale of Ta'li, a young woman on a physical and spiritual journey in search of healing for herself and a way to awaken empathy in the hearts of her fellow humans.

By popular demand, starting SOON. Nothing else to say 'bout it.
