"Mumia: Long Distance Revolutionary" - Written, Directed & Edited by Stephen Vittoria - www.mumia-themovie.com
Has just been released on DVD and includes an explosive bonus feature, a brand new short film called: "Manufacturing Guilt". It's a 25-minute film based on the actual record of investigations and court filings made between 1995 and 2003, that focuses explicitly on Mumia's case and in particular the clear evidence of a frame-up by the Philadelphia PD and DA's office. It's a powerful addition to the feature film and has been enthusiastically received by Mumia's family & press alike. As you know: "Long Distance Revolutionary" tells Mumia's life story and focuses on humanizing a man who for many has been completely politicized. "Manufacturing Guilt" is the natural follow up to LDR and cuts through a lot of what is confusing about his case as well as dispelling the myths that persist to this day. The feature & the short film together are a truly inspirational tool in the ongoing mobilization of support around Mumia Abu-Jamal's emancipation. Links below will take you new promos for the DVD release and "Manufacturing Guilt", as well as links to all three outlets currently selling the film. I hope you'll share this info with your contacts and express to them how the efforts to free Mumia Abu-Jamal continue unabated. We hope that this fiercely independent documentary along with this new short film will continue to play a major role in mobilizing the demand for Mumia's freedom. "Mumia: Long Distance Revolutionary" - Is an inspiring portrait of a man whom many consider America's most famous political prisoner - a man whose existence tests our beliefs about freedom of expression. Through prison interviews, archival footage, and dramatic readings, and aided by a potent chorus of voices including Cornel West, Alice Walker, Angela Davis and others, this riveting film explores Mumia's life before, during and after Death Row - revealing, in the words of Angela Davis, "the most eloquent and most powerful opponent of the death penalty in the world...the 21st Century Frederick Douglass." Before he was convicted of murdering a policeman in 1981 and sentenced to die, Mumia Abu-Jamal was a gifted journalist and brilliant writer. Now after more than 30 years in prison, Mumia is not only still alive but continuing to report, provoke and inspire. The film features the song "Society" sung by Eddie Vedder. "MUMIA: Long Distance Revolutionary" - Features interviews with Cornel West, Alice Walker, Angela Davis, Rubin Hurricane Carter, Ramsey Clark, Ruby Dee, Giancarlo Esposito, Peter Coyote, Dick Gregory, Amy Goodman, Tariq Ali, M-1 aka Mutulu Olugbala, Aya De Leon, Michael Parenti, Ramona Africa, Juan Gonzalez, Dave Zirin, Johanna Fernandez, Michelle Alexander, Jerry Quickley, Emory Douglas and many others.
