*This month we are screening the doco 'The Miracle of the Little Prince',
inspired by the wondrous book by Antoine Saint-Exupery. For anyone who
doesn't know this story or want to refresh their memory, here's a
beautifully animated youtube film
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APG1upS8LDw>, **narrated by Kenneth
Branagh.*





*Sunday, November 17th will be the next monthly community documentary
screening in the Old Cobargo Butter Factory at 3.30pm The Miracle of the
Little Prince *

*Directed and photographed by Marjoleine Boonstra Produced by Pieter van
Huijstee*

Next to the Bible, The Little Prince is the most translated book in the
world; in more than 375 languages. Why do people from very diverse cultures
choose precisely this book to keep their threatened languages and cultures
alive? From Sami in the highlands of Samiland to Tamazight spoken on the
desert planes of the Sahara. From Tibetan taught in exile in Paris to Nawat
still spoken by a last generation in El Salvador. Every translator has a
dramatical story and motivation to translate this book.

Through the air we connect these languages and cultures. With the words of
the little prince we stretch a line across the world in which the notions
of comfort and hope, that are so beautifully interlaced in The Little
Prince, find their echo in the struggle of the translators and their
friends. No matter how much their cultures differ, what connects them is
that they are able to convince us that it is essential for people to be
allowed to think, dream and speak in their native language.

An inspiring human film which carries out the wisdom of the Little Prince.
