One Sentence Movie Reviews: “I Know I’m Not Alone”

Michael_franti

I Know I’m Not Alone (2005): “The choice between politics and peace is entirely ours to rise to or fall short of.”

Notes: San Francisco musician Michael Franti visits Baghdad and Jerusalem in an attempt to understand the nature of occupation and conflict in the Middle East. His warmth can seem childlike and naive at times but his attempt at understanding an empathy is wide, deep and largely apolitical. A little film that holds a whole lot in its arms.
