The Mothership 2050 | Support UnionDocs Projects

Ish Entertainment is working with the documentary director Rebecca Carpenter on a groundbreaking project about the space architect Constance Adams, who died last year after a long battle with cancer. Adams was responsible for the TransHab unit that will likely be deployed should we ever send a manned mission to Mars, but after receiving her diagnosis, she changed her focus to saving life on planet earth. Earth, she determined, will face a mass extinction event by 2050 if steps aren't taken. She began work on a blueprint, called The Mothership, to bring together different disciplines into a comprehensive solution. Her goal: to save mankind and save the planet for the two daughters she left behind. Her request: that we make this film to help complete the blueprint. Please click on the link below to watch the trailer and contribute (tax-free) dollars to allow us to finish the film.

Co- Producer: Your own private link of the film prior to its release; Community Screening Package including Skype Q & A with member of film’s team after screening; 4 seats to premiere. ALL DONATIONS ARE TAX DEDUCTIBLE.

Gringo: The Dangerous Life of John McAfee review – proto-Trump figure chills the blood

Latest rave for Gringo, and the Trump parallels are more pertinent than ever: "Right now it is tempting to find parables and parallels everywhere for the current US situation. With this documentary from Nanette Burstein, the zeitgeist-paranoia is justified. Her film is about a man who, in political terms, was John the Baptist to the non-Jesus that is the president-elect."
