Fw: Fw: True inside story of Iraq- film from Jo Wilding - can you help?

Dear Friends,
 
Jo Wilding, a British woman, has been a friend of the Iraqi people for years.  Her reports from Iraq during the buildup to the invasion and its first few weeks were invaluable.  Please support this film.

Hi All
 
 Happy new year. This is just a short one - a request for help / pre-pay film orders from Julia, the independent film maker who's been with me through the Iraqi Dates case in 2002, to Iraq before and during the invasion and again during the occupation:
 

 Documentary Film news - 'A letter to the Prime Minister'
 
 Its nearly there, after two years in production, this epic story of the Iraq war from Jo's perspective is nearly finished.  It follows through the process of challenging sanctions in the UK courts, experiencing Iraq before the war, witnessing the destruction of the lives of ordinary people and the following neglect. How the 'Boomchucka Circus' Jo formed, worked with school children and refugees.   In April 2004 travelling into Falluja when even Al Jazeera had pulled out and being witness to targeting of civilians in the city by US forces.
 
 This film seeks to ask the most serious questions of politicians who have taken this course of action, and that the state Iraq has been left in is not forgotten.
 

 'A letter to the Prime minister' is now in need of funding to finish the final edit and production onto DVD and send it around the film festivals, maybe even persuade Tony to watch it.
 
 Your money could help make this happen, either through a supporting donation of £100, which will give you a credit on the film, a copy of the DVD. Only 30 of these donations are needed to finish this important film.
 
 Alternatively a pre-paid order of £15 + p&p would guarantee a DVD as soon as it is pressed.
 
 Please email juliaguest@burntmail.com for details on how to pay.
