I invite you to attend the upcoming screenings of Pass Me the Map in Los Angeles and Santa Cruz. The film was completed in December 2008 and these screenings begin a tour that will stretch from California through Central America and Mexico in March and April.

This bilingual documentary explores an issue important to our world, development. Pass Me the Map features groundbreaking footage of community leaders, politicians, street kids, indigenous farmers and everyday people speaking about the impact that development has on their lives. Pass Me the Map is a “road trip” style video with vibrant and intimate images of communities along the Pan-American Highway in Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua and Costa Rica.
