Primitive Christianity Revived, Again
SWEET HOME COSTA RICA: a film about war... and peace
Please check out our kickstarter page http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1481695121/sweet-home-costa-rica-a-film-about-war-and-peace In October of 1950, 36 Quakers from Fairhope, Alabama, left the US to protest US militarism and US involvement in the Korean War. They headed to Costa Rica which had recently abolished its military. They established a new community in the mountains of Costa Rica - Monteverde - and set up a cheese factory and a Friends school. Sweet Home Costa Rica is the story of their act of resistance.
