Andrea Kreuzhage is the director of the feature length documentary 1000 Journals.

1000 Journals
is a film about people whose lives are touched by 1000 traveling journals. These blank journals were released into the world in the summer of 2000, by Someguy, a San Francisco based artist. Some people found a journal, or got it from a friend or stranger. Some signed up on the web and received it in the mail. Some wrote in them, others doodled, pasted in photographs, or added artworks. Some kept them. Some passed them on. There are no rules, and no one really monitors these journals and their movements. And yet, they are connecting tens of thousands of people worldwide, provoking and inspiring them.

In September 2003, one of the 1000, number 526, returned to Someguy, filled. What happened to the other 999? This film tells their stories. 1000 Journals shares the experience of their worldwide journeys, and chronicles the self-governed collaboration of thousands of random people who have added to this global "message in a bottle."

The world premiere of 1000 Journals was in November 2007, at the AFI Fest in Los Angeles. Check out the reviews and news stories, see Someguy's read carpet interview, and  the pictures from the premiere screenings. Sign up to receive email infos about future screening dates and festivals.

Here's a video clip of a visit to the press and publicity office at the AFI Fest headquarters. All I wanted to do was drop off our press kit and some photos...

And here's a story which was in the AFI Fest special of the Los Angeles Times on October 21, 2007.
