To the reviewer / interviewer: To compare a woman's losing custody of her children to more than 3,000 lives lost is absurd and insulting to those who lost their lives that day.

My comments / review:
I've seen this DVD and I was shocked at the ignorance and prejudice I saw on Ms. Davenport's journey eastward. Did she deliberately chose to edit out people who were rational and coherent? Did she trip over every not-so-bright person in the US? She ran into more than one paranoid schizophrenic and chose to include them in the film.

There is no emotional resonance from Ms. Davenport. Curiously, the only people moved to tears were two Latina women who spoke movingly about the lack of love in the world.

I found the film deeply resonant, and also enjoyed her next movie "Operation Filmmaker." Sorry you didn't care for it.
