This review is from: In View of A Cup Half-Full: ART PEACE Volume I [VHS] (VHS Tape)

M. Rose Barkley's first short film adaptation of the poem "Spiral Pillar" is taken from her debut book "Wayfaring Stranger--Poems". Simply put...it is moving, suggestive and ultimately hopeful for everyone...regardless of race and origin. A must see, you'll embrace the fact that you did. Thankyou, M. Rose Barkley, for sharing a part of your vision with us...Rise, meet the challenge--aspire higher!
