Dear Friends,
Recreation and The Film Collaborative are excited to announce that HOW TO START YOUR OWN COUNTRY will be screening In Competition at the 2010 International Documentary Festival Amsterdam.
What makes a country a country? What makes a state a state? A nation a nation? And what’s to stop you from starting your own!?…Directed by acclaimed photographer and filmmaker Jody Shapiro, HOW TO START YOUR OWN COUNTRY, which held its World Premiere at the 2010 Toronto International Film Festival earlier this fall, takes us on a globe-hopping search for an answer to these fundamental but little understood questions, in a hilarious and thought-provoking examination of micro-nations — tiny states seldom recognized by better-known, more conventionally established countries around the world.
We look forward discussing HOW TO START YOUR OWN COUNTRY further with you soon.
Thanks and best regards,
Ariel Veneziano
