The western...

It seems to me that a lot of the documentary projects that get funding nowadays is about either some social consience theme (war, hunger, AIDS, troubled youth), you know what I mean, or some form of oddity. You know; cute story about love and friedship amongst people with Downs Syndrome, cute story about musicians with Downs Syndrome, cute story about old people from rural parts of our beautifull country who, in spite of where they come from, still manages to have a positive outlook on life and the future. Oddities.

Where’s the stories about regular people? Where’s the stories about youth with a positive attitude, hopes for the future and an OK CV? Perhaps they even own a laptop mac?
I just feel like its time to tell a story about something from the mainstream. What’s your friend Christian’s story. He works as a web designer, has a girlfriend and a hobby, has no money worries. Where does he get his energy, his mojo? What’s his goal?
That’s what I want to know.

You?
