Just so you don't think the women and I have dropped off the planet, I'm writing to let you know we are all taking a short break; from work, from blogging, from e-mail. Bring our energies back home to ourselves. Our Duisi offices were closed for Ramadan and are still closed as temperatures soar and because August is the month that many of the women go to Turkey to harvest hazelnuts for income.
As for the film, it is post-production time. A long and involved process that is what makes a film a film instead of a home movie. This is where the true artistry and technical expertise of the film-maker comes into play. The process for our film will take Patricia up to six months of, as far as I understand never having done any post-production myself, painstaking and exacting work. So the film-makers are not taking a break. This is where the film-maker looks for story-lines and themes and lines up translations and voice-overs and music with the film bites to make art and meaning out of the raw footage. This is all happening in Seattle, where Patricia and Karl live. Miriam will be traveling to Seattle this week.
We will keep you posted as to the film's progress.
