Paul Sheehan, Panama vet and VVAW AI member, is involved in the production of a film about the Panama Invasion. Javier Hernandez-Miyares, the producer and director, wants to cover and expose the crimes of the Panama invasion as well as historical reflection and comparison to the Vietnam War.
Paul and Javier met when they went on the first Cuba Caravan to break the embargo. For the film, they're looking for Vietnam and Panama vets to interview, film, and possibly travel to Panama. Javier was recently awarded sponsorship and $28,000 for the film's budget by Media Network. The completed film will be submitted to several international film festivals. It will also be available for purchase.
Any one interested and wanting to contribute in any way should contact VVAW AI-HQ. Write checks to Javier (Panama film) c/o VVAW AI.
