Timothy John Hinman of Third Ear invited me to speak about podcasting at the Copenhagen International Documentary Film Festival on November 9th, and I was supposed to return home today, November 14th. But instead of going home I've decided to rent a car and drive south, following the refugee trail (backwards) to the Greek island of Lesbos. The refugees I've spoken with here in Copenhagen have told me amazing stories and I feel an obligation to record as many as I can. So I'm going to drive south through Europe, finding refugees moving north and ask them: "Why did you leave home? Where are you going? What has happened along the way?" I should be able to get the story produced and posted by the end of November.
Your donations will be very much appreciated.
