You can’t possibly know how many people you’ve inspired, how many people you’ve made smile over the last month. I never thought I’d get to live through a story as great as this one. The best part, is there was nothing any of us could do. Jonathan Frazier and Zach Prichard rallied the troops to rescue us. Those really are the best stories, when the group of protagonists are finished, and their friends come in to rescue them. Thanks for believing in us. You’ve told us a great story, so now we are going to get to work telling one to you. From here, we will be keeping in touch with you through a couple blogs.

It’s hard to imagine such a story not being cheesy, but it only takes one, and then everything changes. 3. The subplot of the movie is about justice overcoming injustice, specifically related to the accessibility of clean water. A story, well told, about the need for clean water, can multiply a thousand-fold in social action. 4. Because we are telling the world we are producers of stories rather than just consumers. Before this movie (and again, this is the first in American history) movies were funded by a very small group of people who shoved stories down our throats to make money. This is a story being told by the people. 5. Because we would be very grateful for your help. We need [...]
