Brave New Films

Posted on | March 11, 2009 | No Comments

I would like to present a great phenomenon that I’ve learned of recently (from reading an article in Danish newspaper, Information – it’s in Danish, read it here). The phenomenon is a small compony by the name of Brave New Films, an Los Angeles-based independent film production company, founded by Robert Greenwald, specializing in creating amazing political short films aimed for viral distribution – through YouTube as well as through people’s own private networks. Something that has lead to screenings in community centers, work places and even private homes across the US. One of their productions, ‘Iraq For Sale’ (see trailer embedded below – and watch the entire movie, part 1, 2 and 3) has enjoyed more than 7,000 screenings in the US so far and is really causing awareness among citizens.

What an impressive way of utilizing the power of the Internet in getting a great message through. I’ve immediately signed up for the newsletter (so that I receive word of new productions) and will naturally engage as an active network node in their increasing grassroot world grid.
