Twitter: @alamofilmguy https://twitter.com/alamofilmguy Should a man’s life be defined by Jar Jar Binks? George Lucas is not a perfect filmmaker. But he is a genius. A genius who is able to communicate the best and worst of our common nature, and has done so in an unprecedented, universal cinematic language. Few have been able to equal his artistic success, because frankly, he makes it look easy. I made this video essay to provide a window into the mind of a socially conscious filmmaker who explored ideas about our common existence and tried to present them to in new, interesting ways to audiences. His goal was never to make an escapist film solely for the special effects and explosions, but it was to give his audiences a greater understanding of our shared humanity. True, he sometimes fell short. “Attack of the Clones” is a bit weird, to be sure. But he was always true to himself, his voice and his stories. All this to say: I would rather watch a flawed movie by an imperfect genius than a movie made by a voiceless committee.

You reach a point in life when you have to choose. Career over passion. Work over play. It’s when surfers turn CEOs. Photographers turn lawyers. Fly-fishers turn doctors. Mountain climbers turn engineers.

It’s when you put a piece of yourself on hold. And as time passes, the things you used to love doing, start to fade away. This is a reminder to not forget what you love. All the activities that you once embraced.

A message amplified by an original speech by the philosopher Alan Watts, recorded in 1959.

This is a tribute to his legacy and the values he shared with Volvo.

Tendril is incredibly honoured to present this animated film for Together Project: the film perfectly encapsulates the Together Project’s objectives while offering human insights into real experiences of many newcomers. Written and directed by Julia Deakin and with creative consultation by our good friend Kurt Mills (of Goodby), this film perfectly encapsulates the objectives of Together Project while offering human insights into real experiences of many newcomers. Special thanks to Emilie Muszczak, who beautifully mastered the design and animation for this piece, and a big shout out Elham Nanaa, our sweet 9 year old voice. Elham arrived with her family in 2015, and between Elham and her older sister Hanan they verified that our story hits the nail on the head when it comes to how integration can work at its absolute best. They were both very proud to be part of the creation of this film.
