Thanks to WMBI’s Steve Hiller and Michelle Strombeck for having Ralph and I on their show today. If you’re a WMBI listener or this is just your first time here, thanks for stopping by. If you would like to take a look at any of my films feel free to visit my website
www.claymorepictures.comIf you are wanting more information on Ralph Borde and his work in India please go to
www.charasia.orgI have had several people ask me about the future of Seema and what I want to do with this subject. At this point, I have two follow-up projects that I would like to do, and a few other ones lingering in the back of my mind.
First, I am working with Ralph Borde of Charasia on a documentary regarding the human-trafficking that is happening in India. This is such a broad subject that it is hard to address it in any one project. But the goal of the film is to expose the major issues and reasons that this problem even exists and what we can do about it. The documentary, I hope, will be a haunting story with a glimmer of hope as we show the work of
Charasia.
Second, I have laid out a full length, live action feature for “The Story of Seema.” This will obviously be a more extensive and detailed look at this problem. It would be built off the short, and would follow Seema's life from childhood to her old age. Exploring the life of Seema, an everyman, if you will, mirrors the stories of millions living in India today.
If you are interested in supporting either of these projects, feel free to email your contact information to
pete@claymorepictures.com. I would be happy to talk with you about it.
