The Sacrifice

While some of you (particularly back in Lexington now that Keeneland season is nearly underway, spring is coming on in the Bluegrass and parties are a-blooming like the early tulips) may think that this title is in reference to my sacrifice of these grand and glorious things to be in the middle east, the truth is that, yes, I miss all those things, of course!

But, The Sacrifice to which I refer is a short film, written and directed by Zachary Kerschberg, a documentarian getting his feet wet in the realm of fiction. One of Jacob's and my favorite wedding gifts was a Nikon D90 from his wonderful Aunt Mary and family and his Papa. It's produced the photos included on this site. This camera has been the source of much occupation and documentation for me and most recently, it was put to use helping Zach out as he pursues his next options as a filmmaker.

He and the Emerati, American, Palestinian and Omani crew allowed me to tag along and shoot progress, characters and locations over the two-day first-run shoot. It was lots of fun, and a learning experience for certain! The web albums can be found at:

  1. Thank you! I'm now editing the film and it is coming pretty nice. Still have to come back for one more day of shooting! Zach
