Film Crew back from Uganda
Our crew have spent the last 7 weeks away filming on location in Uganda.
Our documentary Child Troopers (working title) has come a long way in 3
years and has also developed into a much more socially significant and
politically charged film, focusing on sensitive, historic and
contemporary issues that affect Uganda yet are being largely ignored by
international media, which hinders the path to peace and justice in the
region.

War Made Easy - Trailer
War Made Easy: How Presidents & Pundits Keep Spinning Us to Death
FEATURING NORMAN SOLOMON, NARRATED BY SEAN PENN DIRECTED & WRITTEN BY: LORETTA ALPER & JEREMY EARP (2007)
War Made Easy brings to the screen Norman Solomon's analysis of the strategies used by U.S. administrations, both Democratic and Republican, to promote their agendas for war from Vietnam to Iraq. By familiarizing viewers with the techniques of war propaganda, War Made Easy encourages us to think critically about the messages put out by today's spin doctors--messages which are designed to promote and prolong a policy of militarism under the guise of the "war on terror." War Made Easy is a recipient of a grant from the Conflict Zone Film Fund.

Protest at the Aboriginal Tent Embassy, Canberra
The aboriginal ‘Tent Embassy‘ directly opposite Parliament House in Canberra is an interesting and vibrant place, where Australian Police are not even allowed to enter, nor stand on a piece of their land, unless given permission by the elders. I happened to be in Canberra for a climate action summit, and spent two days at the ‘tent embassy’ with the elders who took a liking to me. The police crossed the line onto aboriginal soil that day and I captured a rare piece of footage, the filming insisted by the elders and leaders of their ‘tent embassy’.
Read ABC's report below about today's riot that put our Prime Minister Julia Gillard in danger.

Forest Whitaker Latest Film Deals With Uganda's Child Soldiers
- Forest Whitaker as General Idi Amin in The Last King of Scotland
Forest Whitaker has a number of films he plans to direct, one of particular interest is 'Better Angel's'. Better Angels is a film close to Whitaker's heart and focuses on the child soldiers of Northern Uganda. In 2007 Whitaker won an academy award for his performance as Ugandan dictator Idi Amin in the 2006 film The Last King of Scotland.
Pre-production for his film is expected to begin in April of this year, and Child Troopers director Ebony Butler, is hoping to be involved with the making of the film.
Better Angels, although a fiction film, has many similarities with our documentary Child Troopers. Both have common themes based on events and situations that arose from the LRA conflict, that has seen over 30,000 children abducted and forced to become child soldiers.
