Perhaps it was the photography, perhaps the music... But this short trailer made me choke up. I constantly pass the small bits of detritus that float in the puddles and collect in the corners of my life. At times, I am moved to pick them up and place them in the "proper recycling bin" but many, many times, I simply walk on. Everyday life blinds me to these tiny (and some not so tiny) colored bits of chemical potions, but perhaps it is time for me to see...

When we think of the Middle East, so often images of sandstorms, bombed-out villages and desolate faces are what come to mind. As Americans, this is about all we are exposed to on primetime television. As an alternative, I would like to offer this.

    I love film and all of the connections tied to this art form. I often find myself watching a video that I just need to share! I am not a filmaker by any means, but I do appreciate the power, beauty, humor and emotion that can be associated with film. Enjoy!
