Perspectives on the meaning of democracy by individuals spanning three generations: Joanne Patton - a small business owner, longtime Army wife and daughter-in-law of WWII's General George S. Patton, Denver-based filmmaker/educator Scott Kinnamon, and Massachusetts high school Honors student Henry Druschel. The film was produced for Cinemocracy by Aaron Ross, Sam Malabre, Ben Shirley and Conor Tadler - all students at Fred's Teen Film Workshop in Hamilton, MA (www.fredsfilms.com).

Very enjoyable.
Good to see such a wide span of opinions, and it gives me hope to see that 3 generations can all participate in our system. Opinions in the film were all reasonable, well thought out and articulated well. I liked the whiteboard- a little bit of whimsy and creative design.
Good. But I don't like the sound quality.....
did I say good? I meant awesome. Nice job. I love the white board idea. I actually had that same idea a while ago, and was going to say that you should incorporate that into a video that you make....but it seems that you already have!

Hi all,
Great job! You guys pulled it off and created a clear, concise, informative, and visually engaging documentary- what could be better? Best of luck with wherever this film takes you.

Well done!

Great job! I was impressed by how you were able to tell a complete story within the time limits for submissions. Keep it up! I hope we'll be seeing more of your work (History Channel, Discovery Channel maybe...)in the future.
Nicely done film! It's nice to see that young people like Henry, one of the interviewees, are so tuned into the issues that matter. Well done, Fredsfilms! Five stars!
