New Indy Film Release: Keep Towing That Line- an inspirational 8-minute film filled with action footage from the 2005 Biscuit forest defense campaign. This tightly edited piece features the voice of legendary activist Joan Norman in an impassioned call to action accompanied by a moving soundtrack by The Devil Makes Three. This is a brief and open ended short film that covers the amazing civil disobedience campaign that took place in the spring of 2005 in opposition to the Bush Administration's attempts to push through the largest logging project in US Forest Service history in the wildest landscape left on the US West Coast.

"In Defense of the Biscuit is simultaneously beautiful, heartbreaking, and inspiring. It is the story of one of the most beautiful places on earth, and of the courageous individuals and groups who are defending this place from devastation caused by huge corporations and criminal logging company operators who are protected in their illegal activities by armed (selective) law enforcement officers. Watch this film, and then go join these or other activists on the front lines of forest defense". Derrick Jensen, author, A Language Older Than Words, The Culture of Make Believe.
