Greenbelt Festival plans a film documentary on its 40 years
THE GREENBELT Festival is working on a feature-length documentary
film. Greenbelt is looking to raise funds for the film by using crowd
funding, an online system which allows supporters to be part of the
creative process. Read a press release, "Greenbelt Festival is in the
process of making a feature-length documentary film that will honestly
re-tell the highs and lows of the Greenbelt Festival story - featuring
rare archive footage and photography, music from across the four
decades and voices, past and present. It will reveal its humble
beginnings in a field in Suffolk in 1974 and weave a narrative around
its long and varied history - how Greenbelt has grappled with the
intertwining strands of arts, faith and justice. But the film is not
just about the past. Drawing inspiration from the 40th festival theme
of "Life Begins", the film will look toward the future."
Hi, This is awesome. I wish that there was something like this for Cornerstone Festival here in the USA. It is hard to make a case for funding new kinds of ministries without real world examples. Hopefully this will help bridge that gap. Thanks. God Bless. Aaron
