Dear Sirs,
I'm a documentary film maker. I graduate in English Literature and Language 8 years ago and I've been working on documentaries the last 6 years. I find your proposal very interesting because my documentaries are focused right on reality representation and media influences on our society. I've just finished a documentary on representation of Mafia's image nowadays - if you're interested I could send you a copy of it. I'd like to have more information about this job, since I wasn't able to find them following the link of this post.
Best regards,
Salvatore Fronio
