[Letter From Auila Productions]
Part of Spirit of the Peace fonds
This letter is written by Mike Dodson, producer for Aquila Productions, to Peter Goertzen. It is about planning the Spirit of the Peace’s promotional film that was eventually called “Discover the Spirit of the Peace.” Dodson intends to create four characters who will be the voices across four different historical eras. The characters he intends to create are: an Indigenous elder, a missionary, a blacksmith, and a war-era homesteader. He intends to have the Indigenous elder be the link between all of the historical periods and act as the narrator.
