 Against a compelling backdrop of Environmental art,   Natural World 
 Museum's Film series shows compelling   documentaries and movies with an 
 environmental message.  NWM seeks to promote film as an organizing media  
 for people to engage in a social movement demanding   global 
 sustainability.  ------------------------------------------------------  
 THE GODS MUST BE CRAZY I  Directed by the South African Jamie Uys, this   
 slaphappy collection of goofy pratfalls and   culture-clash gags became an 
 enormous international   smash.  A Coke bottle dropped from an airplane 
 disrupts   the quiet life of a family of African Bushmen   living in the 
 deep isolation of the Kalahari desert.  N!Xau, the head of the family, 
 takes the evil thing   and embarks on a journey to the end of the world to  
  return it to the gods. At the same time a white teacher   is fed up with 
 city life and takes a job in Botswana.   She meets a shy and bumbling 
 scientist. Their   adventures and misadventures are intertwined with   
 N!Xau's journey.   From the perspective of sustainability, this film  
 provides comic relief and a lighthearted view on  the disruptions that 
 globalization, symbolized   by the ubiquitous Coke bottle, can have on   
 traditional societies.

 ======================================================  ABOUT THE NATURAL 
 WORLD MUSEUM  ------------------------------------------------------  San 
 Francisco’s emerging Natural World Museum is a   501 (c)(3) nonprofit 
 organization whose mission is to   showcase educational art exhibitions 
 that cultivate   environmental awareness and stimulate social   engagement 
 in conservation.   http://www.naturalworldmuseum.org  
 ======================================================  Art is the 
 signature of civilization and the cornerstone   of conservation. From the 
 paintings of Robert Bateman,   to the indigenous objects of Native 
 Americans to the   soundscapes of Bernie Krause, the message is loud and 
 clear  ~ nature’s beauty is fragile and finite.
