Think big, then try to analyze how you are going to accomplish your goal. Travel.. related to a trip. 1.

The first example was from Mesopotamia « amargi » = « retour à la mère ». Linked to the problem of debt.

one style of music for each stage

volunteers

Maud  + ??? : travelling cinema in Ireland with a technician (Johnny Depp?), in the Irish villages, they are small and far away from each other. A way of meeting people in Ireland. People there must be lonely. I want to organize movies in a way in which people will get together and spend time together. Why bring people together ? Show French independant movies, open people's

Requirements :

A van with movie materials, videoprojector, computer, chairs (because it will be a street cinema event), a big white screen, a technician

A sponsor to buy the van : how about independent cinema, car maker ?

Set up a network with the village government and local associations...why not do it in schools ?

Ideas : how can you get people to speak together after the movie ? Combine it with a travelling pub. Get people to talk with each other using an indirect method.

People don't go to the cinema very often.

For instance,...

There are not too much many people.

The difference between much and many ?

Much = quantities that you cannot count : How much water is in the bottle.

How many people are in the class.

How much money does it cost ?

How many minutes does it take...

Climate and weather : I thougtht the weather was harsher.

A great movie about the ward
