Hello,
My name is Alain Lewkowicz. I’m a radio journalist working for France Culture, a french national cultural radio station located in Paris - France. I’m sending this Mail and I’m soliciting your goodwill because I need your help. I wish to come to Springfield Illinois to make a one hour sound documentary about your town when Americans are about to choose their new president. I wish to come at the beginning of November before the 8th, before the vote’s day. The aim of this documentary, is to talk about America and Americans through the daily life of 2 Springfield’s family. I would like to spend one full day with each family to talk about their vision of the world and their vision of what is America today, after the next presidential elections. I choose Springfield Illinois because it is a town always in Chicago’s shadow and I wish to be able to put light on it. Il is the home town of Abraham Lincoln and in 2008, Springfield was the place where Barack Obama declared officialy his candidacy for the democrates. I think that Springfield Illinois can personify the typical middle town of America where I could draw a picture of America and middle classes Americans.
I would like to meet 2 Springfield’s families and spend one full day with each. Through their daily life I, would like to talk about their main issues, the issues for Americans like education, welfare, taxes, weapons, religion, civic rights, unemployment, economical, political en social issues, immigration, international policy, the place of America in the world… All thos general thematics will arise through their daily problems. It means that I wish t meet families with whom I could spend time to be close as possible to them and their dreams.
All those questions and the answers will make a portrait of USA through the real life of Springfield people. My problem is that I don’t know anyone in Springfield. That is was I’m sending E-Mails to “officials” and journalist to know if you can help me to be in touch with some families who could accepte my project. Do you think that you can help me to do it ? Thank you in advance for the precious help you can provide to me. Please, let me know and sorry in advance also for my bad english… I wish to arrive in Springfield the 4th in the late afternoon to start our recording the 5th until the 6th because I must be in San Fransisco the 7 at night. Again thank you verry much for any help.
Best Regards
Alain Lewkowicz
