The film is about logging on our Island, the coming of Texada, and the community's re sponse-a battle that continues today and will con tinue for some time to come. I'm Cr.qc king Up Seldom have we been so moved by a film. Seldom have we bothered to watch a film a second time, let ~:::::: alone a third or fourth time.

Ransen has it all here: great cinematog ~~' :::; raphy, action (even a car chase! ), tragedy, comedy, ) ;~ and his own steady, almost soothing narrative that I ties it all together. But what this film has more than anything else is raw emotion. As viewers, we are taken on an emo tional rollercoaster ride, as we experience the in tense anger and frustration of both the protesters and the loggers, the despair of the hiker standing amidst the rubble of a former forest, fear and ex hilaration as B. Nevill faces down the massive log ging truck and the cool, calculated logic of the businessmen explaining their position and the eco nomics of the situation. The ride ends with resigna tion and hope. But wait! This ride i~ not over. Indeed, this amaz ing film may be starting us on yet another ~ound on the rollercoaster. For if you thought that, Briony's nu"'de ride through downtown Vancouver brought a lot of attention to our Island, wait until this hits the CBC'airwaves next week. Is1anders get to view the film this weekend at Art Spring (don't bother to call- both screenings are filled). But next week, on March 28 and then again on April l, CBC will air the film coast-to-coast. And while there's no nudity in Ransen's film-shooting was finished long before the Vancouver ride-the emotional power of the film is going to hit hard in living rooms, the boardrooms and the newsrooms of the country. Ransen says that as he was making the film he was thinking about more than just the fact that some people bought a large chunk of Salt Spring and are logging it. He was thinking, he says, about the lack of community control that the situation exposed. He says he made the film with the hope of encour aging people in communities everywhere to take ' action towards retaining or regaining control over their own lives. We're not sure how well that message actually comes across in the film. But we are sure that it is going to encourage a great deal of discussion and debate and that Salt Spring and Salt Spring Is landers are going to be near the focus of those dis We encourage your submissions on any subject, but please include your name, address and Publisher Jeff Outerbridge phone number.
