My deepest compassion for all touched by the Norway massacre 24/07/2011

In every moment since last Friday my heart goes out to the victims – survivors and deceased – of the Norway massacre and bomb attack, and I lack the words to express how deep my compassion with them, their families and their friends are.

My compassion with the perpetrator Anders also runs deep – such a lost person, so full of fear and hate, so alone.

To those who like Anders believe that people of other creeds and ideologies are hateful and dangerous, particularly to those who consider using violence to make their point or achieve their goals, I would like to say – I hope that this event has become a reason for you to think again.


Shall I not inform you of a better act than fasting, alms, and prayers?
Making peace between one another: enmity and malice tear up heavenly rewards by the roots.

Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.
Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the sons of God.

Jesus

the spirit quest – please vote :) 12/01/2010

Please check out The Spirit Quest – Pitch by clicking here or on this thumbnail:

THE SPIRIT QUEST - a pitch for your-big-break

This is my entry in the competition Your-Big-Break.com -
if I win I get to go to New Zealand and make a 3 min film about the country with the people behind Lord of the Rings amongst other things…

I am in love with the idea I have for the film, I hope you like it too:

The Spirit Quest is about two female elves who appear in the middle of a square in Queenstown, New Zealand, right after dawn on a warm summer morning. The younger one of them is on a Spirit Quest – to find the Spirit of New Zealand. Since the Young Elf is reluctant – she would rather have a mission in some distant, cool astral dimension – the older Calm Elf starts to inspire her with tales of New Zealand, its culture and its people.

As she tells her stories we travel over this breathtaking country, getting impressions from its vast variety of realities and places, thus discovering why it can compete with any astral dimension. In the end, the Young Elf finds the Spirit of New Zealand in a very surprising form, which will leave as well her as the spectator happy and warm inside, and the film as a whole will leave anyone thrilled about New Zealand, and Queenstown!

The rest of the script and the video-pitch are under the link above:

please check it out and VOTE :D
