Our journey began with one question. The same question to each person we met. We traveled from Florida to Alaska . . . Maine to Hawaii . . . all 50 states.
Hundreds of amazing interviews. No one knew our question before appearing on camera.
TO BE AN AMERICAN is an informative, provocative, entertaining, 73-minute documentary that explores our American challenges, problems, hopes, dreams, and aspirations. This is an American story. As told by Americans.
A few unsolicited audience comments:
“This film doesn’t spoon feed you thought, rather, it is designed to make you think. Four Stars!” “Such a powerful piece.”
“The question continues to resonate with me long after seeing the film.” “A lovely collage of ideals, people, and places served up on the backdrop of a fascinating time in American history.”
“Timely and touching, I look forward to seeing it again!” “This documentary should be shown to every public school student in the middle and high school grades as a requisite to getting promoted either to the next grade or graduating high school.”
“I have a strong feeling that everyone who sees TO BE AN AMERICAN will leave the theater asking themselves the same question.”
“The documentary is democracy personified! . . . Brilliant!”
with gratitude, Ken Hurley
