If only U.S. television could be so enlightened (not that Canadian TV wins any free speech awards). But, imagine such a program airing here in the states just days prior to a major demonstration - impossible. If you have contacts in Canada - please forward.

REVOLUTION THROUGH THE EYES OF 100 VIDEO CAMERAS

THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE weaves together gripping video with narration by SUSAN SARANDON and music by RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE to tell the real story of what happened in the streets of Seattle during the 1999 WTO protests.

With more cameras on the street than any other media organization, the Independent Media Center (IMC) coordinated hundreds of media activists and collected more than 300 hours of video footage during the WTO protests.

THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE, a co-production of the IMC and Big Noise Films, weaves the footage of over 100 videographers into a gripping document of what really happened on Seattles streets. The film cuts through the confusion and tear gas to paint an intimate, passionate portrait of a week that changed the world. With narration by SUSAN SARANDON and SPEARHEADs MICHAEL FRANTI, and with a driving soundtrack including RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE, DJ SHADOW, DJ MUSAKA, and COMPANY OF PROPHETS, THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE is the first documentary to capture the raw energy of the WTO protests, while clarifying their global and historic significance.

--------------- "This is What Democracy Looks Like is a passionate, intense and deeply moving account of the extraordinary demonstrations at the WTO meeting in Seattle in 1999. . . As the winds of change blow ever stronger across this land, This is What Democracy Looks Like can be regarded as THE documentary account of t he first great democratic political struggle of the 21st century." -Robert W. McChesney, author, Rich Media, Poor Democracy ---------------

The CBC will be showing a 41 minute recut of the DEMOCRACY. The entire film (72 minutes) is available at www.thisisdemocracy.org.
