Lieve ________________________________ From: Michael Paz To: PazFestII@yahoogroups.com Cc: Joni List Sent: Sun, 22 August, 2010 18:05:21 Subject: [PazFestII] Press release about Not Broken (NJC) I don't know if I sent this already but this is a press release about a documemtary I have already won a Shining Star Award for along with Kris Kristopherson. Paz Pluma Pictures, Inc. www.plumapictures.com plumai@mac.com FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact:B B B B B B B Armando P. IbC!C1ez Phone:B B B B B B 312-342-9067 Date:B B B B B B B B B B B B August 20, 2010 Trailer:B B B B B B www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCOs0aBGxoM. B B B B B Katrina Disaster Documentary b Faith Played Critical Role LOS ANGELES b A new documentary about Hurricane Katrina includes a critical factor rarely discussed in a secular setting b spirituality.B Not Broken, which won a Platinum Remi Award, WorldFest Houston, will be released in commemoration of Katrinabs 5th anniversary, Aug. 29. Kris Kristofferson says: bThis powerful, moving documentary of the Katrina disaster is a testament to the courage and integrity of the Human Spirit.b One of Kristoffersonbs songs, Shipwrecked in the 80s, is included in the feature documentarybs soundtrack. Although the feature documentary was completed in 2008, it is being released this year. bOur documentary is different,b says producer-director Armando P. IbC!C1ez.B bWe include peoplebs faith because spirituality is a critical layer of the Katrina story, which is often ignored.B Faith helped people through the catastrophe, and is helping them heal and rebuild,b said IbC!C1ez, a Roman Catholic priest and a friar of the Dominican religious Order. He added that Christians, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus and people of other religious beliefs banded together and helped each other.B bIf it hadnbt been for religious groups, there would have been many more casualties.b The federal, state, and City of New Orleans governments failed miserably, according to those interviewed in the documentary, produced by Pluma Pictures, Inc., a non-profit film production company. The American Red Crossbs response was criticized as sluggish, and, in Dallas, refused to allow Roman Catholic priests to minister to their flock, who had taken refuge at the Reunion Arena. Not Broken illustrates the horrific life-and-death ordeals and struggles some people faced at the onslaught of Hurricane Katrina, as well as their heroics. In the aftermath, some faced gross governmental incompetence, neglect, crime, racism and religious bigotry. Their faith, however b whether Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist or agnostic b provided a reservoir of strength, not only for their survival, but in also aiding others. The film screened at a number of festivals, including the AFIA Film Festival in Denmark, and the Teaneck International Film Festival in New York. Music and poetry are integral to the documentary.B Aside from Kristoffersonbs song, another song by folksinger and activist John Flynn plays a vital role in the musicbs score. Also included in the soundtrack are songs and music by the late Jack Neilson, Anders Osborne, and Joshua Maurice Ragsdale. Other musicians include rising Gospel music composer Stephen Lee, Chris Stroffolino and Paul Soniat. Michael Paz of New Orleans is music producer and supervisor.B Todd Schmidt and Ned Greene are co-producers, Pascal Leister editor, and John Polito, sound mixer. - - 30 - Michael Paz michael@thepazgroup.com Tour Manager Preservation Hall Jazz Band http://www.preservationhall.com [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] - ------------------------------------ Yahoo!

I am beyond sad that this Labor Day will not find me in NOLA, sharing good times with you all. I ask that you be kind to dear Jody, who is taking this off Michael's shoulders and that you volunteer with good cheer so that she is not stuck in the kitchen while you all are partying. It is deeply satisfying to provide food for a party - that is why Jody and I like to do it - but MUCH more satisfying if there are good helpers in the kitchen. I will never, ever, ever forget the good times I had with Wally K., Mags, Jody, Claudia and many others as we worked at various JoniFests to ensure everyone had plenty of food to sustain the good times! You don't want to miss that experience, believe you me. Have fun, be safe, and make some good memories.

I hope you have been well all this time. I am very well, thank you for thinking of me. I was talking about you not long ago - I got married to my boyfriend of many years back, and he is South African, so I was telling him about people I know in South Africa. Yeah life is good and very complicated and full of surprises. I may be coming to South Africa in September, my husband is a musician and is going to launch his new album on 11 September. His stage name is Jim Neversink, maybe you know him. I don't know if we will be coming to Cape Town, but I'll let you know, perhaps we could meet up? I haven't been posting on the list for a long time, because I have been too busy thinking about other things. So it is a mere coincidence that I saw your email. I guess I was checking the list because an ex-lister, Joseph Palis, is in town, and we got talking about how everyone is. I at work so will finish now. But it's good to hear from you Ingrid.

I am beyond sad that this Labor Day will not find me in NOLA, sharing good times with you all. I ask that you be kind to dear Jody, who is taking this off Michael's shoulders and that you volunteer with good cheer so that she is not stuck in the kitchen while you all are partying. It is deeply satisfying to provide food for a party - that is why Jody and I like to do it - but MUCH more satisfying if there are good helpers in the kitchen. I will never, ever, ever forget the good times I had with Wally K., Mags, Jody, Claudia and many others as we worked at various JoniFests to ensure everyone had plenty of food to sustain the good times! You don't want to miss that experience, believe you me. Have fun, be safe, and make some good memories.
