In 2004, Michael Franti decided to ‘walk his talk’ and traveled to the war zones of Iraq, Israel, and the Occupied Palestinian Territories. This wasn’t a USO green zone sponsored visit – Franti and his team organized a trip that would take him to the core of the red-zoned, war torn neighborhoods of Baghdad, the West Bank, and Gaza Strip armed with only a guitar, video cameras, and the intent to experience first hand the human cost of war.

Throughout his journey he shares his music with families, doctors, musicians, soldiers and everyday people who in turn reveal to him the often overlooked human cost of war. Out of this expedition, Franti has produced and directed a compelling documentary film titled I Know I’m Not Alone. With its guerrilla style footage captured in active war zones, the documentary is unlike the many academic and politically driven pieces in the marketplace, instead offering the audience a sense of intimate travel and the opportunity to hear the voices of everyday people living, creating and surviving under the harsh conditions of war and occupation.

Amnesty International Group 283 is now presenting films with a human rights theme at two venues in Sacramento--Second Sundays at Sol Collective, 6pm (every month) and Second Tuesday Films at Luna's Cafe, 6:30pm (every other month).
