looking for a copy

Hello, I'm also looking for a copy of this movie.

Can anyone please help?

I'm writing a book on protest art and independent media and would like to profile great protest singers who sang for workers, the poor and oppressed people of the world including Victor Jara, Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, Hanns Eisler among others. I think it would be great to popularize once again the work of these protest artists. Happily investigative journalist John Pilger features the music of Victor Jara in his most recent feature length documentary entitled "The War on Democracy" (http://www.johnpilger.com).

Cheers, Anita
